I’ve worked in addiction counseling, treatment courts, and child protection—which means I’ve seen a lot, learned a lot, and developed a deep respect for the resilience people carry. I also happen to live with ADHD, so I have a soft spot for brains that zig when others zag. Whether you’re neurotypical or proudly outside-the-box, I love helping people untangle the messiness of life and find what works for them.

You have probably been managing this longer than you let on, to yourself or to the people around you.

I work with people across every stage of life, from children and teenagers to adults and seniors, and I have been doing this work long enough to know that no two people carry things the same way. Whether you are navigating anxiety, processing something painful from your past, managing shifts in mood, or simply trying to figure out who you want to become, I want to help you get there. My goal is to help you find the version of yourself that you actually want to be.

I’m a board-certified Psychiatric–Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) who provides practical, person-centered telepsychiatry for adolescents and. My practice primarily focuses on psychiatric evaluation and medication management, with supportive therapy and skills-based interventions offered as appropriate during follow-up visits.

My style is warm, practical, evidence-based, and non-judgmental. I work with clients to better understand their symptoms, review treatment options, and develop a medication plan that is thoughtful, individualized, and easy to follow. Common areas of treatment include anxiety, depression, mood disorders, sleep concerns, and life stressors that impact mental health.

I value safety, transparency, and shared decision-making. We’ll discuss medication options, potential benefits, risks, and alternatives in plain language, including when it may make sense to adjust, simplify, or titrate medications. I offer supportive therapy that may be incorporated into medication management visits.

Visits are 100% virtual for your convenience. I offer evening, and weekend availability, and clear communication between sessions for urgent medication-related concerns. I accept insurance through Headway and welcome new clients.

Therapist

I enjoy learning about ways we can change and understand our human existence. We are thinking, feeling and doing beings. Cognitive behavioral therapy provides a framework to identify ways to do it differently and better. Trauma treatment modalities like EMDR may support processing neurological and physiological reactions and being able to feel secure and safe while staying connected to others more fully. Our story is just that; we write it and edit it. We get to choose the chapters and path of our lives, through the unknowns, mysteries and celebrations.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Billings

Searching for therapists in Billings starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. People look for therapy for many reasons, including anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, life transitions, and work stress. As you compare Billings MT therapists, look for someone whose listed specialties, training, and approach match what you want to address. Bios can help you see whether a therapist offers approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, family therapy, or couples therapy.

In a smaller city like Billings, local therapist availability may vary, so virtual care can expand your options while keeping access to Montana-licensed therapists. You may prefer an in-person office near Midtown, West End, or downtown Billings, or you may want virtual appointments that fit your schedule. Beyond specialty, compare appointment times, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading profiles before booking can help you understand how each therapist structures sessions, communicates, and supports goals for therapy in Billings MT.

Therapy in Billings can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care easier to plan for. Headway helps you search for therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, check estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and find therapists who are accepting new patients. You can browse Billings counselors, review bios, compare virtual and in-person options, and book directly when you’re ready.

If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.

If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
