For anyone looking to begin or enrich their meditation practice, I am loving this app. Their 7-day Learn to Meditate Course is a great way to begin, with 10-minute guided meditations in a truly soothing voice (voices are an issue with me when it comes to guided meditations). They have thousands of courses, music, meditations, and videos by tons of different teachers. I just started the 28-day Reset and Refresh Challenge 2024. If you want to join me, it’ll only take you 30 minutes today to get caught up! This is all on the free version 💗

Hi there! Welcome to Willow River Counseling. I am a therapist providing services to Montana residents both in person and via telehealth, based in the beautiful Flathead Valley, Montana. I believe that each of us is a complete person with unique experiences, strengths, characteristics, and opportunities for growth. A life that includes pain, mistakes, betrayal or trauma is not a broken life or one less worthy of love. Everyone goes through times when we can benefit from an ally to walk alongside us, assist us in reaching our goals, or empower us to find our magic. I am honored to have the privilege of my profession and I look forward to the journey with each of my clients.

I utilize a strengths-based, person-centered approach to therapy. My training has been in sexual assault/trauma, LGBTQIA+, grief work, chronic illness and more. I employ mindfulness and meditation as well as parts of CBT, ACT, CPT, somatic therapies and DBT in therapy.

I am currently able to accept Allegiance and private pay clients and will be adding other insurances soon. I understand how hard it can be to start therapy, and I offer free 20-minute get-to-know you visits to make sure we’re a good fit before we begin counseling. Reach out to ask questions or schedule your visit today!
