At one time or another most people feel stuck in unproductive or even damaging ways of thinking, feeling, perceiving and acting/ interacting. Sometimes the causes of the difficulty are hard to see or define. Other times we may understand why we struggle but lack the skills or support needed to make and sustain change.

Do you ask yourself why life feels so challenging? Do you find yourself giving deeply in relationships but not feeling safe, secure or truly valued? You may be trying to make sense of mixed signals or questioning your reactions. These patterns can show up in romantic relationships, but also with family, friendships or how you relate to yourself. I work with adults who feel stuck in familiar patterns. Together we look below the surface to understand what’s happening and why. The answers to those questions create clarity, emotional safety and a stronger sense of self. Counseling is a positive first step to living your best life.

I work with people who want to step out of their heads and really connect with their bodies. Together, we notice triggers, explore patterns, and practice tuning the nervous system before stress or panic takes over. I guide clients to listen to what their bodies are trying to tell them, build self-awareness, strengthen resilience, and cultivate a grounded, present sense of calm with the goal of moving through life with more ease, clarity, and confidence while honoring their unique experiences.

Hello, thank you for reading my page and considering partnering with me to help achieve your mental health goals. I see clients who are looking for help navigating major life transitions, processing trauma, coping with depression/anxiety and other emotions, and/or are developing their major identities. Many of my clients come to therapy to create positive change in their lives, often after feeling lost, overwhelmed or alone. As a member of the LGBTQIA+ community I often work with clients who identify as sexual and/or gender minorities, though all identities are welcome.

In art therapy, we make things together to create a bridge to communication, sometimes staying in the metaphor, and other times using the art product as a jumping off point for verbal discussion. When using narrative therapy, we find new and creative ways to look at old, unproductive stories. We create goals together. I provide the solid, predictable framework and ongoing support, as well as parent coaching. We create opportunities for deep insight, meaningful growth and healthy risk-taking.

Andrew has been working in the mental health field for over 20 years. Andrew's heart and passion is to help people clarify the immense confusion which can arise when they enter their internal worlds. So often we avoid looking at what is inside for fear that it will distress, sadden, or overwhelm us. I believe my job as a Counselor is to help you to discover, understand, and accept what is there, and to help you make sense of the process and the outcome, and ultimately, to find peace.

Wellness is the goal, as defined uniquely by the client. In session, the client will experience a customized approach to therapy drawing on the latest mind-body techniques supported by movement, mindfulness/meditation, creative expression and/or play as a regulatory factor. The client sets their therapy goals which allows full transparency by the counselor to empower the client in their ownership over their healing process. Challenge unproductive thoughts, identify where stress is carried in the body, how are past traumas still impacting your functionality today? Be heard. Be seen. Start your journey today.

Open Sundays & Mondays: I became a therapist to help others find the path not taken. I believe that your growth is an adventure, not a burden. When we approach our lives and loved ones through the lens of discovery, we give ourselves and others permission to be imperfect. We can accept that we may not have the skills needed to have the relationships that we want, and we can strive to learn them. There should be no shame in saying, “I do not know”. Do you know how to comfort yourself when you are disappointed? Do you know how to support someone that is struggling? Do you know how to care for someone who is hurting?

Montanans face unique challenges related to geography, a culture of individualism, intergenerational patterns of trauma, and a changing economy. I’ve spent my career developing evidence-based skills to meet the needs of my neighbors. This starts with building a straightforward relationship as a foundation for work that attends to the needs of our physiology, psychology, spirituality, and our community. Therapy is about cultivating ongoing processes of resilience and everyday I do my best to work myself out of a job.
