Therapists in Big Sky, MT
In life, change is inevitable. Sometimes we want it, and sometimes we don't. Sometimes it comes easy, and sometimes it's among the hardest thing we'll ever try to do. Themes central to experiencing change include tolerating uncertainties, having safe supportive others who can witness and support change, and having choice on the kinds of support needed to make sustainable change. I'm pleased to offer Psychotherapy to residents in the State of Montana, as well as Programs and Collective Healing Communities.

Expecting limited daytime openings in January 2025. Imagine a world where growing up was easy and adulting was just as simple? There would be no peer relationship struggles, everyone had great self-esteem, angelic behaviors abounded, and traumatic life events never occurred. Heck, even our work and home lives were a breeze, we all had uncomplicated relationships, and mental health concerns did not exist. Unfortunately, we do face hard things. Therapy is a way to get help, guidance, and relief as you walk through the daily challenges of life. Are you ready for change? I bet you are!

When I reflect on what being a therapist means to me, the words that come to me are hope, healing, connection, and wholeness. The entire reason that I am a therapist is to help my clients discover that these do not represent mere words, but signify real experiences. I desire that each person I encounter in my work to experience all that life has to offer. However, I recognize that living in this world is not easy, and there is suffering, loss, trauma, disconnection. These experiences, though incredibly difficult, can also be the impetus and foundation of profound and transformative healing.

Immediate openings available! In my role as a psychologist, I work closely with individuals grappling with various challenges that are impacting their well-being, relationships, and overall functioning. I believe that therapy is a collaborative journey towards healing, insight, and meaningful change. Together, we delve into the roots of distress, uncovering patterns in thinking, feeling, and behaving that perpetuate it. We also address barriers to change and plan practical steps for lasting relief. Through this process, individuals gain a deeper understanding of themselves, fostering confidence, security, and meaningful connections.

It takes a lot to be a person. Perhaps you've lost a loved one, are facing a lot of stress, or live with shame and regret. Or maybe you've been hurt by someone you trusted and felt safe with. And yet, even when your life gets more difficult than you imagined, hope exists. We often heal through support and nurturing from others instead of struggling through life's most difficult moments alone. In our work together, I'm dedicated to giving you my utmost presence, unwavering support, and committed care toward helping you heal and grow into the person you want to be.

I support my clients in exploring what their "healthiest best self" might look and feel like. We work together in visualizing this, and identify challenges that may hinder progress. We use different modalities to process attachment disruptions and traumas that may be causing distress. We work to reframe old narratives that are no longer serving the client, into more supportive affirming perspectives. These perspective shifts help clients become closer to their "healthiest best self." I love to work with clients who are motivated for change, able to be self reflective, and are willing to try new things to get new results.

On Maternity Leave until January 2025: 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?

Therapy is about you! I am here to help you understand yourself, develop coping skills and strategies to help yourself. My job is best done when you do not need to see me anymore. Extensively trained in Cognitive Behavioral Psychotherapy and EMDR my approach is nevertheless holistic, and strength based in nature. I do not see the mind, body and environmental influences as separable from each other. Therefore, when appropriate, I also use interventions from other evidence-based therapy approaches I am trained in.
