I’m Morgan, licensed in Montana and currently my physical office is in Billings. Over the past 15 years, I have worked in diverse settings including hospital-based care, long-term residential treatment, community services, and outpatient therapy. These experiences have given me a broad perspective on the challenges individuals face and the many paths to healing.

I’m not here to “fix” you—I’m here to help you grow into the version of you you want to be. My priority is creating a safe and respectful space that focuses on mutual trust and a working partnership. Together we will identify your goals, , develop strategies, and build skills that foster long-term growth and resilience. Change isn't magic; it’s practice, consistency, and the right strategies tailored just for you.

I believe that challenges can become opportunities for growth when we have the right support. My approach is focused on helping you recognize your strengths, clarify your goals, and take meaningful steps toward the life you want.

I earned my first clinical license in 2019 and began my career specializing in addiction treatment before transitioning into broader mental health care in 2020. Since then, I have worked primarily with adults ages 18–55 navigating men’s issues, relationship concerns, vocational stress, and major life adjustments.

Whether you are feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or uncertain about what comes next, therapy can provide a supportive space to better understand yourself and create lasting change. We will work together to develop practical strategies that fit your needs, values, and goals.

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual & in-person • Helena, MT


Hello, I'm Tara Wells, MSN, APRN, FNP-C, PMHNP-BC, a board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner dedicated to providing compassionate, evidence-based care to individuals across the lifespan. My goal is to create a welcoming, judgment-free environment where patients feel heard, respected, and empowered to take an active role in their health and well-being.

With extensive experience in primary care, psychiatry, addiction medicine, and chronic disease management, I believe in treating the whole person rather than just the diagnosis. I work collaboratively with each patient to develop individualized treatment plans that address their unique medical, emotional, and lifestyle needs.

My areas of clinical interest include anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, PTSD, substance use disorders and medication-assisted treatment (MAT), weight management, hormone optimization, and preventive health. I also provide comprehensive evaluations, medication management, and supportive counseling while emphasizing patient education and shared decision-making.

I am currently working on my Doctor of Nursing Practice degree from Maryville University and maintain board certification as both a Family Nurse Practitioner and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I am committed to staying current with the latest clinical research and treatment guidelines to ensure my patients receive high-quality, evidence-based care.

Whether you're seeking support for your mental health, managing a chronic medical condition, or working toward your wellness goals, I look forward to partnering with you on your journey to better health.

Maya Gordon

Therapist

Virtual • Montana


Hi! It’s nice to meet you. I’m glad you’re here. Seeking support can be vulnerable, and reaching out is often one of the hardest steps. People seek therapy for many reasons—whether you're having trouble managing anxiety or depression, exploring your identity, navigating relationship challenges, or working through the impact of difficult past experiences. You’re not alone, and I’m here to help.

My name is Maya. I am a trauma-informed therapist with extensive experience working with survivors of domestic and relationship abuse, sexual abuse and child abuse. I help clients understand the impact of trauma, build coping skills, strengthen relationships, and move toward healing. To support this work, I draw from evidence-based approaches including EMDR, Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), mindfulness practices, cognitive behavioral therapy, somatic interventions, and attachment-based perspectives. I want clients to gain practical, easy to apply skills from our sessions. In addition to trauma processing, you may learn skills for grounding, managing difficult emotions, communication and more.

I have worked with individuals from a variety of backgrounds, including Queer and Trans clients. I am committed to creating a therapeutic space where people feel respected, affirmed, and welcome. I approach each person with curiosity, compassion, and openness, recognizing that our unique experiences shape how we understand ourselves, our relationships, and the world around us.
