Motivational Interviewing Therapists in Billings, MT

I am a Mental Health Therapist committed to supporting clients in making positive changes. I see adults, children, adolescents and couples. I am solution focused and work on skill building with clients.

After moving back to Montana 9 years ago, I have realized that helping and working with people that are struggling with life issues, depression and anxiety continues to be my passion. I have been working as a LCSW for 7+ years and am excited to offer individual, family and couples therapy. I have a passion for working with the aging population and the many life challenges they and their families are experiencing. I have experience working with children and adults with issues that include anxiety, depression, PTSD, Postpartum depression, sibling conflicts and unexpected life changes.,

We all have a story to share that does not have to be defined by our past. You have what it takes to write the next chapter of your life. I would consider it a privilege for you to allow me to walk alongside you and support you as you begin this journey of healing. You are not alone. Together we can address and manage symptoms of anxiety, depression, and trauma. These concerns manifest differently for everyone. In my work I will draw from aspects of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Internal Family Systems and others to make this time suit you.

The struggle is real- for all of us. I am committed to helping a person grow toward improved insights and coping skills to resolve their problems and related emotions, in a non-judgmental and supportive manner. My goal is for one to learn more about themselves and to function at a higher level in the whole-person dimensions of their life. Whether one is motivated for short-term and situational concerns, or more internally motivated for deeper understanding of self and life-stage fulfillment, the counselor/ client relationship remains paramount as an agent of change.

Throughout life, we are faced with the task of overcoming challenges and hardships. Whether you have been struggling with mental health concerns for many years or are going through a current life circumstance that is causing you distress, it may be time to seek outside support from a therapist. We will work together in a collaborative manner to create a space where you can focus on gaining a deeper understanding of yourself, increase meaning and fulfillment in your life, and reduce mental health symptoms that might interfere with your well-being.

Accepting in person individual sessions!

Most individuals I see are looking for help on finding confidence, increasing happiness, and decreasing the control worry has over them. I work with people who feel constantly overwhelmed with not much time to focus on themselves. I really enjoy working with people who are seeking change in their life – related to career, social life, personal development, better relationships or are looking for a sense of peace within the chaos of life – but don’t know where to start or how to make positive changes happen. Often times they feel overwhelmed and stuck but want independence and freedom and a sense of belonging and connection.
