My Counseling Services

As a licensed psychologist and counselor practicing in Bozeman Montana, I work with people experiencing a range of emotional, situational and health concerns to help them cope more effectively in today’s challenging world. During therapy and counseling sessions, I provide a supportive environment to help individuals explore their inner life and sort through obstacles and barriers that interfere with personal and professional satisfaction and general well-being. I pay particular attention to helping people reduce their stress and cultivate a sense of internal ease by providing helpful skills to integrate emotional experience and gain greater comfort dwelling in their bodies. Clients experience greater life-satisfaction and healthier relationships.

Integrating my extensive mind-body training and research with the best of traditional psychotherapy and counseling techniques, I help clients reduce their stress response and improve immune functioning for optimal emotional and physical health. I do this by helping individuals better understand how their autonomic nervous system works and discover tools to work with the inner states that, in the present, limit their ability to function optimally in areas of their lives. I welcome working with patients who have medical concerns, diagnoses, chronic pain and other related symptoms. I also have expertise in multicultural counseling and enjoy a diverse practice. 

In my Montana private psychotherapy practice counseling practice, I draw on psychodynamic and interpersonal principles combined with research on social and cognitive development, including the neurobiology of attachment. I also have extensive training in a number of body-centered or somatic practices including focusing, Hakomi, Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) and Mindful Self-Compassion.

I provide in-person therapy sessions for clients in Bozeman, and online video sessions via Skype, FaceTime or a HIPPA-compliant platform for clients throughout the state of Montana. Many of my clients live in Gallatin County, Big Sky, Billings, Missoula, Great Falls, Helena, Butte, Kalispell, Belgrade, Livingston.
