Finding the right mental health support in Montana doesn't have to be complicated. Headway partners with 277 compassionate providers trained in evidence-based approaches like CBT and EMDR. Sessions are available virtually or in-person, covered by 70+ insurance plans.
I am a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner who can prescribe psychiatric/mental health medications, and psychotherapy.
I became a PMHNP in 2022 after working as a registered nurse for 14 years in rural and urban settings in Arizona, Nevada, and Montana in areas of nursing including medical/surgical, emergency department, family practice, and in-patient and out patient psychiatry.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker serving women in Montana and Florida through my private practice, Heart Development Strategies, LLC. I earned my Master of Social Work from Western New Mexico University and hold a graduate certificate in Rural Community Social Work. I am trained in EMDR, trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy, Internal Family Systems, and strengths-based, person-centered approaches.
I specialize in working with emotionally and mentally exhausted women navigating anxiety, burnout, compassion fatigue, trauma, and major life transitions. Many of the women I work with are leaders, entrepreneurs, professionals, and caregivers who have spent years holding everything together while quietly losing touch with themselves. Women often come to me because they want someone real, warm, honest, and straightforward. I am not here to impress you or give you a script to follow. I meet you where you are with truth, compassion, and practical support.
Please note, outside of Headway insurance I also accept Mountain Health Co-Op, Peak PPO.
I am a seasoned therapist of 30 years, and I learn something new with each individual I connect with. My goal is to address the issues of life we all face with grace, compassion and a little humor. I might not know all the answers... but together we will develop strategies to make a better life.
I am a licensed psychologist offering telehealth therapy for adults in early and midlife across Montana. I work with people who feel lost, overwhelmed, unseen, or trapped. Whether you are carrying trauma, struggling with depression or anxiety, stuck in painful relationship patterns, or functioning on the outside while feeling depleted underneath, therapy can help you understand and move through what feels most painful or stuck.
My style is active, honest, and collaborative. I am warm and direct. I listen carefully, ask real questions, and provide thoughtful feedback to help you better understand what is happening and what may need to change.
My background includes doctoral training in clinical psychology, additional education and experience in trauma and crisis work, and clinical experience in medical and academic settings. I also had a previous career as a hospital chaplain. I am comfortable working with both symptoms and deeper concerns: suffering, meaning, faith, conscience, identity, loss, and major life transitions. Spiritual or religious concerns can be part of the work when they matter to you, but they do not have to be.
I offer telehealth only, so you can meet with me from anywhere in Montana. I accept insurance through Headway and offer a free 15-minute consultation to see whether working together would be a good fit. I have limited openings, so please reach out if you are interested.
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.
I'm Bridget, glad you're here. I have 11 years of experience working with adolescents and adults through some of the most complicated chapters of life. If you're feeling stuck, not because you aren't trying, but because the strategies you've been using just aren't cutting it anymore, then we should talk.
I’m Zara Hanson, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a passion for helping people reconnect with themselves, heal from the inside out, and show up more fully in their relationships.
My interest in mental health started early, rooted in a curiosity about human behavior and a desire to help others feel less alone in their struggles. I earned my undergraduate degree in Psychology and Research Psychology, followed by a Master’s in Clinical Social Work with a focus on both direct therapy and systems-level care. Over the years, I’ve worked across a range of settings—from community mental health to private practice—supporting individuals, couples, and families navigating complex emotional terrain.
My practice focuses on trauma, neurodivergence (including ADHD and Autism Spectrum Disorder), substance use, mood disorders, relationship conflict, and emotional dysregulation. I’m especially drawn to working with clients who want to make sense of their story, process unresolved experiences, and find a more grounded, authentic way of being. I also work with couples to deepen connection, repair trust, and build more effective communication.
Therapy with me is relational, honest, and insight-driven. I aim to meet you exactly where you are, while gently encouraging growth, curiosity, and self-compassion along the way.
Life can look completely fine on the outside while feeling exhausting on the inside. I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, BFRBs, ADHD, OCD, neurodivergence, self-worth, loneliness, relationship patterns, dating, or simply the feeling that something isn't quite right.
You don't have to be in crisis to benefit from therapy. Whether something has been weighing on you for years, you're feeling stuck, or you've just started noticing life feels harder than it used to, you deserve support. There doesn't have to be a "good enough" reason to reach out—if it's important to you, it's important.
Whether you're brand new to therapy or you've tried it before and walked away feeling unseen or misunderstood, you're welcome here. You don't need to have the right words or know exactly where to start—just showing up is enough.
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.
Hi, I’m Elaine! I’m a Clinical Mental Health Counselor who works with adults, couples, and military families navigating life’s ups and downs. I have a Bachelors of Science in Psychology, and a Masters of Science in Marriage, Couples and Family Counseling with an addendum of Crisis and Trauma Counseling.
Many of my clients come to me struggling with relationship challenges (like communication struggles, Parenting conflicts and infidelity), trauma, PTSD, anxiety, or depression—feeling stuck, disconnected, or unsure how to move forward. My goal is to help you feel supported, understood, and equipped to create the changes you want in your life

Frequently asked questions


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 Therapist in Montana
Searching for therapists in Montana starts with finding someone whose training matches what you want support with. Across a large state with both urban and rural communities, available care can vary by location, specialty, and appointment format. You may be looking for support with anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, relationship challenges, or life transitions. As you compare Montana therapists, look for specialties and therapy approaches that align with your needs, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or trauma-informed care.
Your search may look different in Billings, Missoula, Bozeman, or a smaller Montana community. Some people prefer in-person sessions with a therapist nearby, while others choose virtual appointments for more scheduling options. Beyond specialty, consider whether a therapist is accepting new patients, has appointment times that fit your calendar, and offers a free phone consultation. Reading therapist profiles before booking can help you understand how each therapist describes their approach, session style, and areas of focus.
The cost of therapy in Montana can vary, and using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower your out-of-pocket costs. Headway makes it easier to compare therapists who accept insurance, view estimated session costs before booking, and choose between virtual and in-person care. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, and you can add your plan details to confirm coverage for your location and benefits before you book.
