Attachment-based Therapists in Montana

I’ve always carried a deep desire to help people. My first career law enforcement. However, it did not really allow me to really dig in with individuals and help them make changes so they were not continuing the same cycles over and over. I returned to school and pursued my education in behavioral science and then mental health counseling, graduating with my Master’s degree in 2013. I've treated clients in residential treatment, intensive outpatient treatment, community mental health, and in a low to high security, all male state prison. I've worked with individuals from every walk of life. As a therapist and human being I’m always motivated to learn and grow. One of my passions is Equine Assisted Psychotherapy. I have been trained in and previously held certification in the Equine Assisted Growth & Education model. I also earned my EAGALA Military Services Designation to provide culturally competent services to our military members and their families. Another passion is working with our first responders, giving back to those to give so much daily.

I use an eclectic mix, often including psychodynamic work, in therapy to include the entire person: body, mind and spirit. I educate and empower clients to use practical tools learned in therapy in realistic, lifelong ways. I also like to include elements of movement, nature - especially horses, into my work. It takes courage to be vulnerable and acknowledge you'd like some help along this journey. I know because I've been there myself. It's never too late to awaken your true self and create a vibrant, beautiful life. Take the first step and I'll meet you there!
