free to be counseling in missoula, montana
it’s time to get the support you deserve
You’ve been wondering if therapy might help you get back to being yourself, building the confidence to do things that matter to you, strengthening your relationships, and taking care of yourself. Whether you are considering counseling for the first time or you’re interested in coming back because things have gotten overwhelming, I’m glad to help you figure out if Free to Be Counseling might be a good fit.
I offer individual therapy for anxious millennials and people who want to work on their people-pleasing tendencies. See below for more about these areas.
What our sessions will look like
We’ll talk about your pain, but we’ll also laugh together. We’ll work on responding to difficult emotions and thoughts without pushing them away. You’ll learn to tune into what really matters and calm your body, so anxiety doesn’t get in the way of being your true self.
I usually see clients once a week, so you can start making the changes that you’re looking for more quickly. I will teach you skills that we will practice in session, so you can use those to move through anxiety, have more effective conversations, and take steps to take back your life. We will do this collaboratively; you have the agency to say what you do and don’t want to try.
how do i operate as a counselor?
I maintain a smaller counseling practice because it works for me and for my clients. When I see fewer clients each day I have time to take care of myself, so I can focus on and support you better when we are together. I have more time to prepare myself for sessions and to respond to your needs. If you leave me a message, I will get back to you. And occasionally, when life happens, being flexible means we can usually find an alternate time to accommodate the unexpected.

When you are looking for a counselor, it is important to find one who is a good fit for you. Often, you can narrow down your search by reading therapist or counselor profiles on their website or a site such as Psychology Today. I encourage potential clients to also have a short phone call to discuss therapy goals, scheduling options, and to get a feel for the therapist one-on-one. I offer free phone consultations that last 10-15 minutes before scheduling an intake session.
