In Person Therapists in Bozeman, MT

I offer therapy sessions online and in person.
My name is Scott Gardner and I am a Licensed Addiction Counselor. I provide counseling to help people overcome addiction and the sources of distress that led to their substance use. It is natural to feel stuck in mixed emotions when thinking about changing substance use or other addictive behaviors. People may see the substances they use as allies, and it is normal to grieve the loss of those allies when trying to make a change. There may be times when a person will sacrifice the next five years to survive the next five minutes. Often, people do not feel as if anyone truly understands them.

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.

Are you satisfied with the quality of your relationships? Most people agree that our life is made infinitely better by close connections and becomes intensely challenging when our relationships are problematic, painful, and unfulfilling. Are you stressed, burdened, frustrated, outraged, or lonely within your relationship with others? Or is the relationship you have with yourself overwhelmed with internal conflict? I can help. My private practice empowers individuals and couples to significantly improve their intrapersonal and interpersonal relationships. I foster client authenticity, self-love and self-esteem within individuals and guide couples through conversations that create close connections and secure bonds.

Sessions can take place on a privacy protected video platform or in person with appropriate precautions in place.
I believe that everyone has within them the capacity for growth and profound strength. However, sometimes we find ourselves stuck in problematic patterns without the insight or support we need to free ourselves. One of the greatest honors of my lifetime is the ongoing opportunity I have to walk alongside my clients as they both deepen their understanding of themselves and rewrite their stories to ones of strength, self-compassion and empowerment.

I offer in person and online sessions.
Sometimes things can feel hard and overwhelming. Relationships, work, transitions, grief, and parenting can leave us feeling confused, lonely, stressed, and exhausted and we need extra help. Therapy might help with processing past traumas and triggers in relationships and setting new boundaries. It might be a place to express emotions and thought without judgement and to build stronger coping skills. Therapy may be the place to discover your authentic self and individual needs in hopes to bring more joy or peace. Maybe a person just needs to feel less lonely with their hardships and grief.

Relational living is at the heart of my work. Individuals learning to be kind to the anxious and depressed sides of themselves. Couples who have drifted, or splintered, learning how to come back together. Families bridging gaps to realign and work with, instead of against, each other. Teens who have negative self talk and low self esteem. It all has it's foundation in relational living. When I work with my clients, they are individuals, and our process is unique. We collaborate on treatment goals and assess along the way if we are each doing our job to reach those goals.

Relationships - to others and to ourselves - dramatically influence our ability to flourish and thrive in a rich lived experience. I work with individuals and couples who are weary of feeling upset, disconnected, and exhausted, and even alone, empty, worried, and anxious... working toward a daily experience of thriving, engagement, closeness, and congruence between who you are, your desires, and your ways-of-being. Though feeling fed up, frustrated, and ready for change isn't our preferred state of existence, those who find themselves here are also ready for and motivated to find change.

If you find it difficult to make the initial leap into therapy, I'd like to help. Schedule a consultation with me today.

I believe that change in therapy can occur when someone feels safe and secure in the therapeutic relationship. I aim to provide such a space for individuals to explore their emotions, beliefs, relational patterns, and behaviors. I assist my clients in increasing self-awareness, decreasing distressing symptoms, and improving their overall well-being. My practice primarily serves adults struggling to cope with stress stemming from various types of life transitions, anxiety, trauma, relationship issues, depression, and eating/body image concerns.

Life is a complex journey that can feel overwhelmingly hard to navigate at times. We all show up with our own profound life experiences and when obstacles emerge that seem insurmountable, we need support and guidance for growth, deep personal healing, and connection. I believe in the power of the therapeutic relationship and genuinely value the importance of offering a safe environment to hold space where meaningful change and growth can occur. Therapy is a collaborative process and I recognize the importance of flexibility and adaptability.

Openings Available! Connection allows us to feel seen, heard, cared for, loved, understood, and accepted. I believe that our relationships—both with others and with ourselves—are at the heart of our emotional well-being. When we understand the unconscious dynamics that shape how we relate to others, we can create more meaningful, supportive connections. Together we'll explore patterns using attachment science, to increase understanding, improve self-compassion, and create lasting change in how you relate to others and yourself.
"Until you make the unconscious conscious it will direct your life and you will call it fate." C.G. Jung

My aim is to work with the Latinx community in Montana, because I believe in the importance of receiving services in our own language. I help people who are living domestic issues, anxiety, stress, depression, grief, self-worth, relationship issues, etc. Depending on the necessities of the client, I incorporate modalities of narrative therapy, art therapy, solution-focused therapy, attachment therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT).

I believe the heart of therapy is an authentic and trusting relationship. I have a down-to-earth and gentle nature and am known for my humor, warmth, curiosity, and compassion. I believe all people have the spirit and wisdom to become the best version of their self and I work collaboratively with clients to help explore what may be getting in the way of their natural healing capacity. I work well with adults struggling with depression, anger, stress, anxiety, trauma, relationships issues, drug and alcohol concerns, and self-esteem issues.

I currently have availability in our Bozeman and Belgrade offices for in person sessions.
Are you struggling with the sorrow of losing someone or something you love? Do you feel like you can't "get over it" and you would like someone to come along side you with kindness, compassion, empathy and support? We often attribute grief to death, but we can also grieve over lost relationships, physical abilities, employment, life transitions and many other things. Through life and loss experiences, we can lose hope, our sense of purpose and our connection with others. We can also experience transitions within our relationships that can cause us to feel disconnected and alone or hopeful and excited for a bright future together.

Accepting new clients. Exploring tensions, suffering, or stuckness takes courage. I honor and celebrate the opportunity to witness each individual’s process and show up as their collaborator. Humans are wired to be in connection and community, and it is through relationship that we can experience safety, growth, and empowerment.

Starting counseling can be likened to setting off into the woods, unsure where the path leads but hoping to find clarity in the journey. The right counselor can help you navigate the brambles and find the path again when you lose your way. I enjoy working with adults and young adults who are struggling on their path, whether from depression, trauma, loneliness, or simply the weight of life. I specialize in helping folks who are self-critical or perfectionistic find freedom from their harsh inner voices. One of the hardest things to do in our society is care for ourselves, but I truly believe we can get there together.
