Therapists in Manhattan, MT

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Bozeman, Montana. My focus is on treating adults struggling with issues such as trauma, PTSD, anxiety, depression, grief, divorce, and OCD. Pulling from multiple modalities, I use evidenced based practices to assist individuals in achieving their goals and learning ways to cope with life's challenges. I have additional training in EMDR and trauma focused treatment.

Helping empower people to live joyful, abundant peace-filled lives, while enjoying the gift of life given me by God forms the purpose and drives the mission of my ministry as a therapist. The purpose of Heart and Hand Center is to alleviate suffering that comes to people of all ages as a result of trauma, grief, loss, injury, accidents, divorce, family dysfunction, war, poverty, addictions, death, and disease. We use a healing approach combining compassion and care with expressive arts therapy, equine assisted psychotherapy, and spirituality to address root causes of emotional, behavioral, and psychological problems.

I graduated from Montana State University in 2010 and have a combined 6 years working with children and adults with mental health issues. My interests are working with adults and children that suffer from depression, anxiety, bipolar, attachment issues. I also have an interest in working with families to help with healthy boundaries, increasing positive communication and setting appropriate goals to increase the health of the family.

I work with people who have trouble regulating emotion. I am skilled in several different types of therapy, however, I have a significant amount of advanced training in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and Gottman Method couples therapy. I tend to work with people who are experiencing depression, suicidal ideation, self harming behavior, trauma and anxiety. I focus on providing Autism assessments, ADHD assessment and treatment, clinical supervision and marathon therapy. I'm based in LSL now and offer telehealth for people located in Montana. Now enrolling new members for adult and teen DBT groups starting in June!

I want to bring hope to whatever situation you are facing. As we work together in individual or couples counseling, I will help facilitate healing, growth, and self-compassion. You may be stressed beyond your limits at home and/or work with our new world realities due to COVID-19. Maybe you are dealing with past or current trauma, or struggling in your relationships. You may find yourself facing grief and loss during this time as our losses have increased due to stay-at-home orders and new ways of living. Many are struggling with anxiety, depression, hopelessness, and feelings of loneliness as a result.

I am accepting new clients. I offer compassionate, down-to-earth counseling in which I strive to build a collaborative therapeutic relationship. My practice specialty continues to be supporting individuals with life adjustments, stress, relational/communication challenges, anxiety, repairing self and/or relationships, and self-esteem issues. (I also specialize helping women end binge and emotional eating as a certified nutrition coach and emotional eating coach in my 6 month coaching program, visit my website for more info on this specifically)

My name is Aimee Lang (previously Volkman), and I am a licensed clinical professional counselor (LCPC). I believe each individual is unique, and views the world through an individualistic lens- given their experiences. I feel everyone deserves the opportunity to be heard. It takes a lot of courage to take a step towards enhancing ones well-being. Often, people feel lost and overwhelmed in their past and current struggles. I have a varied clinical background focused on working with children, adults and families who are struggling with life changes, anxiety, depression, PTSD, divorce, autism, attachment and existential crisis.

I focus on helping my clients improve their awareness of the connections between their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Though the development of a strong therapeutic relationship, I aim to help clients celebrate their strengths as well identify and challenge the maladaptive patterns that are keeping them stuck. Together we may explore new ways of labeling and expressing emotion, identify problematic interpersonal patterns, or challenge unhelpful mindsets. My approach emphasizes curiosity, not judgment, around the complex topics that often come up during our work together.

Dr. Mary Ward Black is a licensed clinical psychologist practicing within the Big Sky Psychological Consortium. She enjoys providing assessment (ADHD and psychodiagnostic) and therapy services to adolescents and adults, and uses a diverse range of evidence-based techniques that integrate cognitive behavioral, interpersonal, and client-centered theories. In her practice, Dr. Black emphasizes mindfulness, communication skills, and insight into personal values and meaning. She compassionately collaborates with each individual client, tailoring her therapeutic approach to highlight their personal strengths and values.

I work with children, adolescents and adults with a curiosity about how we can live more connected and meaningful lives. Often the ways we have learned to adapt to our world (or world view) is no longer effective or relevant. I seek to help create deeper awareness and insight into underlying motives, defenses, and desires. Together we explore patterns that contribute to struggles and dissonance in day to day life.

As a psychologist, I offer psychotherapy to individuals experiencing a range of issues impacting their well-being, relationships, and functioning. I believe therapy ultimately involves a collaborative relationship between the therapist and client, which can provide healing, insight, and desired change. I endeavor to help my clients understand and work through 1) what has contributed to their distress, 2) what patterns of thinking, feeling, and relating (consciously or unconsciously) are maintaining their distress, 3) what barriers to change may be present, and 4) possible steps to take to bring change and relief.

I once heard it said that "Mental health problems need to be viewed as proof of our humanity, not an exception to it." Such problems in today's world often present themselves as anxiety, depression, stress, burnout, isolation, stagnation, trauma, relationship strain, etc. and can leave people feeling like they are merely existing rather than living. Does this sound familiar to you? If it does, then a counselor like myself may be able to help you through it.

It can be empowering to have an active role in the therapy process. I believe in a collaborative partnership with my clients where I provide support and the tools to help make lasting changes. I believe every person has the right to their own self-determination, to make their own choices and manage their own life. I utilize evidence-based theories such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Interpersonal Process to guide my work and influence the interventions used throughout each session. My goal as your therapist is to help you navigate difficulties while supporting you in utilizing and recognizing your own strengths and resilience.

It can be easy to lose track of our balance and priorities; many of us spend a lot of our energy tending to others, making sure those we love are okay- but we neglect to check in with ourselves. This can leave us feeling empty, lost, hopeless, and overwhelmed. Clients I work with are seeking balance and clarity. Helping people return to where they feel most like themselves is an amazing process, and I'm proud I can help.

I'm a psychologist and psychotherapist providing in person therapy to clients in Bozeman, Montana and online video counseling. I specialize in mind-body medicine, mindfulness, body-centered therapies, and interpersonal, psychodynamic psychotherapy that integrates the latest findings in developmental and cognitive science. I work with people struggling with a broad range of emotional, behavioral and medical issues to help them develop awareness of their internal states, more effectively work with their emotions, lessen their stress response, improve coping skills and develop and improve their immune function.

My approach to psychotherapy is based upon an individualized approach to counseling which emphasizes the inherent value and beauty found in every individual. I am passionate about assisting my clients in obtaining insights and developing skills to improve not only their individual, interior self, but also their relationships with others. I specialize in trauma. I advocate a collaborative approach to treatment which places my clients and their goals above any other considerations as we work together towards personal betterment. I am certified in EMDR, as well as trained in Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Somatic Experiencing®.

Are you experiencing symptoms of anxiety, panic, obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) or struggling with a phobia or tics? Perhaps you're having a difficult time sleeping or find yourself worrying about bad things happening or what people think of you? You could be experiencing unwanted thoughts that you are unable to let go of, or fear losing control and something bad happening. You may be struggling to move past something difficult that happened and its taking away from your quality of life. Living with anxiety can be crippling, but with evidenced based treatment, symptoms can improve quickly.

I have experience working with clients from 10 years old through adulthood. I enjoy providing therapy for people who are experiencing Depression, Bipolar Disorder, Anxiety, OCD, or psychotic disorders like Schizophrenia and Schizoaffective disorder, as well as people who have a history of traumatic life events or current difficult transitions. I work with people who are seeking more enjoyment out of their lives, or who feel that their mental health creates limitations for them. Helping people improve their quality of life is my ultimate goal.
