Taking care of yourself is an act of kindness. Therapy can be the gift you give yourself. I have 25 years as an outpatient therapist. My theoretical orientation is person-centered. I use a holistic and eclectic approach in therapy, building upon the individual's strengths and inner resources. Therapy sessions are designed to empower the individual and expand their coping skills. Treatment planning is a collaborative effort based on the person's needs and wants.

Ever think: "How did I end up here?" or "I never imagined {life event} would happen to me!" You are not alone! We can all relate to these sentiments. Most people do not end up in therapy because circumstances are unicorns and rainbows. Are you struggling with loss, or making meaning out of events that have left you feeling uncertain, shaken, in agony? Do you feel like you are starring in a scene from the film Ground Hog Day, where life is a series of frustrating, repeating events? You can make a successful transition to break this cycle, whatever that personal change is. You will get a sense of control back. A little Zen. Some hope.

Timing is everything! If you are reading this, chances are that now is the time. Being real, raw, and vulnerable isn't easy but it's absolutely worth it. I work to create an environment that allows for careful examination and reflection while being mindful of where each person is and where they would like to be. It is possible to live a life of acceptance and gratitude which allows you to grow and move through life's greatest challenges. I have worked in the social work field for over 20 years and I love it! I've worked with people from very diverse walks of life and in all age groups. No kidding, birth - 101 years old!

We all go through challenges in life where support is needed. Difficult emotions, stress, trauma, and conflict can lead to discomfort within the internal landscape (i.e. thoughts, beliefs, emotions, sensations, behaviors). This discomfort can ultimately affect our relationships with others and ourselves. I view healing as a courageous act by turning inward and tending to ourselves with compassion and curiosity. When we can begin to meet ourselves in a nurturing way, we can develop a home within that we can continuously come back to.

Hello, my name is Tawnya. I’m here to help. Years ago, while working in retail, that was one of my mantras: be willing to help. I still believe that. A big part of that is listening & learning how you view the world while hopefully, opening up another realm of possibilities. I always try to create an environment that offers emotional, spiritual, & physical safety. I hope you’ll enjoy real conversations with me or let me assist through a life transition, maybe even teach you skills to help with challenges. You know your experience best & I hope you will allow me to accompany you along life’s path, assisting when your journey is tough

Life transitions can be devastating, and the more significant the change the more challenging the adjustment. If you are facing a loss due to death & dying, divorce, unemployment, or chronic health issues you may be consumed with fear, anxiety, and a sense of hopelessness. Kate invites you to embrace the challenges instead of resisting them. Together we will focus on developing a sense of safety by shifting from what was to what can be. You are not alone, and Kate would like to be a collaborative partner in your individual process toward healing.

Currently Accepting New Clients. Life is the journey we take to find ourselves in a search for meaning and purpose. As the roads of life are traveled it is easy to become disoriented, lost, or overwhelmed. Healing can happen when we are able to find our way and reconnect with ourselves and others. I believe this is a collaborative process that is most effectively done through connection and developed awareness. My goal is to help you build a diverse collection of skills to make your journey what you want it to be.

We are meant to share life's hardships with others, rather than be alone with our pain. So much suffering today stems from a sense of isolation and disconnection within our lives. I offer a therapeutic relationship based on unconditional acceptance and compassion; where you can feel support in creating healthier relationships, evaluate what you seek in life, and diminish pressures that hinder your growth and happiness. We live in a stressful, anxiety-provoking time. When we slow down and look at our own core values and how we would like to inhabit our lives, we give ourselves permission to make mistakes and grow.

If you are reading this page, you are likely looking for some understanding, healing, and hope. Therapy is vulnerable, and my hope as a therapist is to support you in feeling comfortable and safe while strengthening connection to yourself, your important relationships, and your community. I believe it is within us as humans to learn about ourselves, make change and heal. I appreciate working with women and those moving through the fertility journey as well as new parents. I also appreciate working with humans struggling with life transitions, anxiety, depression, and various forms of grief.

Hello, I'm Annie! I founded Montana DBT Associates and our focus is on helping youth, teens, and families by providing Dialectical Behavior Therapy. DBT is the gold standard treatment for individuals (adults and adolescents) experience intense and unstable emotions, and who are struggling with suicide and self-harm. DBT helps individuals find the middle ground between extremes and opposites and to increase their skills in mindfulness, emotion regulation, relationships, communication, and tolerating intense emotions. Our DBT services are provided with a mindfulness and understanding of attachment and trauma.

I enjoy working with individuals experiencing life transitions, grief and loss, trauma, and those looking to deepen and improve their relationship with themselves.

In order to grow and thrive in life, we all need a sense of feeling understood and enlivened within ourselves, in relationships and in community. I offer a present-centered approach for individual adults, parents, and families who seek to make change, heal from past trauma, move and transform through grief and loss, and improve interpersonal skills.

Are you facing change? The change may be from: external forces-like a job change or starting school, internal forces-like the experience of anxiety or depression, or both-as in the case of chronic illness. I am LGBTIQ proficient and have experience with autism and ADHD. I provide support for neurodivergence and believe self-diagnosis is valid.

Everyone deserves a life of wholeness and belonging. I aim to help you strengthen your connection with yourself, those close to you, and the larger world around you. I specialize in working with trauma, grief, self-worth, and communication. My therapeutic style is warm and accepting. Even though therapy can be intense, I tend towards levity and see joy and humor as a critical part of my work. My Alaskan wilderness upbringing has given me confidence in everyone's capacity for self-sufficiency and resilience, and years of work internationally and with Tribes have instilled a deep admiration and acceptance for diverse life experiences.

My therapy is client centered, offering a safe, nonjudgmental therapeutic environment for work to take place. I generally start by getting to know you well. As you develop a sense of safety and trust and feel deeply understood by me, you will probably gain insights and relief in better understanding yourself. As we go, clients increase their awareness in themselves and their relationships with others. They become calmer, wiser, more confident, and empowered.

My person-centered approach allows me to connect easily with others. In addition to my technical skills, I work hard to provide a safe, supportive, and positive environment. In this, I will take the time to get to know you, explore your unique perspective, and discover what it is you are wanting to address in therapy. Furthermore, research shows that a good fit between the therapist and the client is the best predictor of positive change. With this in mind, I will meet you wherever you are without judgement and provide the best environment for you to reach your goals.

The decision to find a therapist that is right for you could be the first step on the journey to your well-being. If you are in a relationship and looking for better communication or just bringing back the happiness that you remember you once had, I am well-studied in Gottman, Perel, and several other treatment styles that are effective for relationships. If your family is troubled and you want to find a place where everybody can express themselves safely and effectively, I can provide that space for healing and growth. Having wide-ranging theories and techniques allows for greater possibilities for success in your therapy outcomes.
