Adults Therapists in Missoula, MT

I work with couples, adults, kids, and families dealing with disruptive events, situations, and behaviors. Some of these situations are typical life transitions: entering adolescence, a new child in the family, school and work conflicts, or life-stage changes. Other transitions are more obviously traumatic: medical crises, chronic illness, infidelity, or the dissolution of long-term relationships. I work with patients that have long-term, debilitating mental illnesses, and patients that have more situational or transitional difficulties. I welcome clients who are struggling with parenting plan issues and post-divorce conflict.

Do you feel you don't fit in? Are you neurodiverse? Do you feel socially awkward? Are you struggling at work with communication or social aspects? Do you have a special interest you know everything about? Do you watch others and follow what they do in social situations? I serve adults who wonder (or know) if they are on the Autism Spectrum (ASD), including those who have been diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome.

In collaboration with you, my practice is focused on delivering couples and individual therapy for adults experiencing depression, anxiety, trauma, and/or relationship challenges. I provide therapy and interventions through an attachment lens, with your needs and priorities in mind. My approach is relational & warm with understanding and empathy while I assist you in building on already present strengths, attunement, and resiliency within. Among other therapy modalities I utilize Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) for couples, Emotionally Focused Individual Therapy (EFIT), and Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing (EMDR).

Hello! Thank you for considering my practice. I'm committed to providing a welcoming and safe atmosphere for healing and growth. My therapeutic foundation is relationship and attachment based (childhood through adulthood and life transitions.) I have 16 years in the Missoula community providing therapy to adults, children, and families. My experience includes helping clients heal trauma, implementing practical skills for managing distress, and helping individuals understand personal attachment patterns and develop secure relating (improved relationships). I also provide equine facilitated psychotherapy sessions from Spring to Fall.

Congratulations on taking the first step towards feeling better! Just deciding to start therapy is a huge step towards healing. We can take the next steps together. I work primarily with queer, transgender, and gender non-conforming clients. Everyone deserves mental health care which is supportive and understanding of our unique culture, experiences, and needs. While my specialty is working with queer clients my skill set is applicable for helping other minority-identity clients. My approach is compassionate and non-judgmental.

Welcome to Selah Space Counseling! Selah means "pause and reflect," and it is my honor to offer you a safe space to pause and reflect. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, depression, coping with addictions, navigating life's transitions, and building self-esteem. I will work with you to create achievable goals, which is accomplished through exploration of feelings, listening, and offering support in creating healthy, sustainable coping strategies.

I believe that therapy is one opportunity and space you can use to add to your approach and efforts towards healing and growth. My approach to this work is based in relationship with you, building a strong sense of care, connection, humor, and insight. My hope in our time together is that I can support you as you create a life that feels aligned with your values and integrates the many parts of yourself.

I hope to reach and work with people of any ages. I know competition and the forces that push people to be their best and I can offer a respite and space to be comfortable with yourself and to find out your motivations, goals and how to reach them. Depression, Anxiety and anger management are areas where I excel. I can help you find reason, cause and solutions so that you may live your best life. I employ Solution Focused Brief Therapy, Motivational Interviewing and CBT techniques to support my clients ability to implement change and improve their lives. I am currently accepting new clients, online or in person sessions.

I love helping people of all ages through therapy. Whether it's kids dealing with tough situations, teens figuring out who they are, or adults facing personal challenges, I'm here to support you at every stage of life. Everyone brings something special to our sessions, making our time together unique and personal.

I'm an autistic therapist looking to help others see the beauty in themselves. I love working with neurodivergent adults to help them reframe the way they look at their different abilities. I think my background in rhetoric adds a unique dimension to my approach with clients as we collaborate. I enjoy helping clients navigate identity struggles, desire to find belonging, modify behavior, and create the change they want to see on their lives. Let's get to know each other. Tell me about your strengths and special interests. I think building a curious, non-judgmental, and supportive relationship is a great way to get started.

Navigating life's various challenges can feel deeply overwhelming at times, and the idea of reaching out for help can be daunting. Therapy can provide a safe, helpful space for you to learn more about yourself and how you relate to the world. I believe that we are all capable of a deeper understanding of self, which can help us gain more insight into our struggles and how we coexist with them. I approach each session with the strengths-based understanding that every client is the expert on themselves and their own life.

We work with children, teens, parents, and adults from all walks of life, with all sorts of struggles to gain insight about what you value, who you are, and what matters most. We work best with people who have specific concerns or goals for therapy. Together we work to uncover the driving forces in your lives and how to use your specific strengths, talents, and power to build the momentum to achieve your goals and increase your wellbeing and satisfaction.

As we all know, life is full of changes. I believe that these changes, and times of transition, can be both difficult and wonderful. Opportunities await for those who are receptive to support, open to possibilities, and willing to engage with the process.

Everyone deserves compassion through the challenges life brings. Whether those challenges are anxiety and stress, relationship issues, or feeling stuck in life, it is my joy to partner with you along the journey. I believe that every life has purpose and enjoyment to be had, and there is hope for everyone. My goal is process what is hindering you from experiencing life to its fullest, and process solutions and tools together that will remove obstacles. It is hard work, but you don’t have to do it alone.

In our work I will offer you a safe, nonjudgmental space as we explore and identify what you want to work towards. I specialize in working with individual adults (18+) struggling with anxiety, depression, lack of fulfillment in life, difficulty with transitions or making important decisions, unhealthy relationship patterns, and low self-esteem. I believe people can make positive changes in their lives. Through developing a safe, trusting, therapeutic relationship we will work together to help you feel more confident, break unhealthy patterns, build insight, develop new skills, heal from past trauma, and implement positive change.

I believe that seeking support for change and healing can be an intimidating first step. Making it this far speaks to the commitment you have already made to your personal betterment and well-being. I am excited to witness this momentum and am ultimately honored to support you along the way towards whatever personal growth, awareness and self-discovery you seek. I strive to foster a safe environment for all identities to bring all their true selves to counseling. My therapeutic approach is strongly rooted in Person Centered Therapy, informed by CBT and Inspired by Narrative and Mindfulness modalities.

I am so glad you are here looking for a safe space to heal and process life. I value my work as a Clinical Mental Health and Addictions Counselor. I support adults and elders navigating addiction, anxiety, depression, and trauma recovery. My therapy approach is person-centered and narrative based.

I believe that we're all works in progress, having found this to be true of clients struggling with life changes to clients with the most complicated of problems--even young gang members, in whom I've had the privilege of seeing humanity and goodness. The role of therapist, for me, is one of empowering, bearing witness to life's bewilderment and suffering, and jointly creating a peace of mind and resilience, sometimes in the face of unresolved problems, while honoring one's own truth and rewriting our narratives in a way that makes sense to us as we make meaning to our lives.

Unfortunately, I am not able to accept additional Medicaid clients at this time. I ardently believe in our capacity as human beings to experience healing. I see my role as a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor to partner and walk with my clients while they tap into their resiliency to make positive changes in their lives. Counseling is a unique relationship that provides a safe space for the exploration of thoughts, feelings, behaviors, values, beliefs, relationships, challenges and solutions. I believe that you are the expert on you and that I can work with you to fulfill your counseling goal(s).
