The organization collaborates with a diverse team of mental health professionals who not only possess clinical expertise but also understand the unique cultural nuances and challenges faced by the BIPOC community.

Hello, I'm Angela and my practice is called Mindful Healing. I have been a nurse for thirty four years and Practitioner for the last 6. I graduated with honors from Southern Adventist University with my Masters in Psychiatric care. I started my career helping first responders deal with PTSD. I treat depression and anxiety, along with ADHD and much more. I have extensive experience in addictions of all types. I care about my patients, and you will not be just a number if you choose to have me as your provider.

I was born and raised in Montana and have a genuine passion for nature and the outdoors. I received my Bachelors in Psychology at Montana State University in 2001. I then pursued my Masters of Social Work degree and graduated in 2008 from the University of Montana. This graduate program had a focus on providing a social justice and integrated practitioner perspective. I have an eclectic style that can be tailored to each unique individual. My primary therapeutic methods include Mindfulness Based, Holistic, Exposure, Narrative, Cognitive and Behavioral, Strengths Based & Solution Focused Therapies. I provide a non-judgmental and compassionate environment that often helps people feel comfortable. A true passion of mine is structuring therapeutic activities for clients to express, process, increase self-awareness, and de-stress from life’s challenging and developmental experiences.

I work best with driven people experiencing a big change. Perhaps, despite your best efforts, things aren’t working out as you’d hoped. Or perhaps you’ve gotten all you wanted and it doesn’t satisfy. I work often with D1 athletes & pros (as well as their family members). I love supporting the romantic partners of people in the public eye. Though I often work with athletes I am not a Sports Psych. In fact, I don’t even follow sports! I’m here for the rest of your life and identity.

Hi and Welcome! I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor who feels honored to support people through their personal challenges and hardships. I’ve been licensed since 2009 and specialize in trauma-informed therapy, working with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, grief and loss, attachment concerns, and life transitions. I also have a special interest in helping couples who are struggling with disconnection, conflict, or the lasting effects of difficult experiences.

With over 20 years if experience, I provide counseling to adolescents, adults and senior adults. People from all faiths, cultures and world views are welcome in my practice. Clients come to my office seeking a safe place to process things that may have resulted in feelings of anxiety, depression, stress or relationship difficulties. I specialize in working with clients who have experienced trauma. Counseling is provided from a Biblical worldview and I will pray with clients upon request.

A Master's Degree in Counseling was earned in 2007 from Oakland University in Rochester, MI. Additionally I hold certifications in grief counseling and Story Informed Trauma Therapy (SITT). Work with couples and families is informed by doctoral level study and Gottman training to help improve communication in relationships. I have been married for 50 years, am the mother of two adult children and grand mother of seven.

My office provides a handicapped accessible space to process concerns in a home-like atmosphere. Counseling services are available in person and via telehealth.

If you’re carrying trauma, anxiety, or depression, you’ve found a warm and steady place to start. I’m a seasoned Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and mindfulness has been a deeply important part of my own life and my work for nearly 30 years. Over the years, I’ve completed intensive meditation training in India, Nepal, Sri Lanka, and the United States, experiences that have profoundly shaped how I understand healing, presence, and the connection between mind and body. I’d be honored to bring all of that to you.

I am a easy going, non-judgmental therapist with over 14 years of experience.
