Therapists for college students near University of Montana
Sierra Lee
Now accepting new clients! Hi there, my aim is to cultivate a space that fosters authentic connection, healing and curiosity while honoring each person's unique needs and truth. I firmly believe that true healing begins with our relationship with ourselves and blossoms through connections with others. I recognize that life experiences, relationships, and systemic influences can sometimes lead to feeling like you have a lack of control. I wish to assist you in re-establishing a sense of self-autonomy and agency within your life. I predominantly draw upon trauma informed, somatic-based, and relational culturally based interventions. This approach allows me to use a holistic lens to help you deepen your understanding of your emotions and experiences within the broader systems that surround you. I have experiences working with individuals who have experienced domestic violence, trauma, managing life transitions, depression, anxiety, and racial identity exploration. I enjoy working with individuals who identify as multi-/bi-racial within the BIPOC community. I look forward to connecting!

My commitment is to personalize support for you to create positive changes in an accepting environment. Through a collaborative approach, you will gain insight into maladaptive patterns that may be inhibiting you from creating the life you want to live. I have 15 years of experience utilizing evidence based approaches to assist in creating the change you want to see in yourself and your life. I enjoy working on women's issues, pre and post natal concerns, body image, disordered eating, navigating relationships, grief, stress management, perfectionism, and life transitions. My perspective includes mind-body connection, nutrition, movement, sleep, and connection to the community. I use workbooks, podcasts, books, and help hold you accountable to yourself. I spend my free time hiking, biking, skiing, and cooking.
Dr. Aaron Stusser
My approach to therapy begins within an environment of warmth, collaboration, and trust. Here, you and I will strive toward your self-healing through the development of deep insight into your unique history, personality structure, and relationship patterns. Over time, you should notice ease with your desired life changes, substance dependency, hard-to-handle emotions, isolation and loneliness, identity conflicts, or relationships. My approaches to treatment are personalized to ensure that we meet your goals, whether through use of cognitive behavioral and/or depth-oriented psychodynamic therapies. Whether focused on shorter-term needs (i.e. insomnia or trauma treatment) or long-term change (i.e. longstanding personality and relationship patterns), we will also pay close attention to what happens within our co-created therapeutic space, as what occurs within our own relationship can offer valuable insights into your life outside of the therapy room. Your unique cultural, religious, or identity contexts will be both honored and integrated into therapy. If you feel we would be a good fit, please feel free to reach out through email or by calling Big Sky Psychological Consortium to schedule an initial appointment.

Starting counseling can be likened to setting off into the woods, unsure where the path leads but hoping to find clarity in the journey. The right counselor can help you navigate the brambles and find the path again when you lose your way. I enjoy working with young adults who are struggling on their path, whether from depression, trauma, loneliness, or simply the weight of life. I specialize in helping those who are highly self-critical or perfectionistic find freedom from their harsh inner voices. I am passionate about providing support based in Health at Every Size and anti-diet approaches to folks experiencing body image-related anxiety or insecurity. I am an LGBTQ+ and neurodiversity affirming counselor and love working with individuals who are exploring their identity and getting to know their authentic selves. I work with individuals from a mindfulness and self-compassion based framework. This means I can help you develop a kinder, more understanding and respectful relationship with yourself. You spend your entire life with yourself - you deserve to enjoy the company! One of the hardest things to do in our society is love ourselves, but I truly believe we can get there together. Reaching out to start counseling is not easy - I am happy to have an initial phone conversation with you to hear about what you're going through and connect. I look forward to hearing from you!

Jenna Coats
My perspective involves connecting our minds, bodies, and emotions to increase awareness towards areas of our lives where we may feel stuck, in conflict, overwhelmed, or shut off. I believe that when we can more clearly see these patterns and responses, we develop a deeper self-awareness and a sense that we have more control than we may realize. With this knowledge, my hope is to support you in feeling more connected, compassionate, and accepting towards all parts of yourself. Some of my experience includes working with individuals who have experienced trauma, domestic violence, sexual assault/abuse, relationship difficulties, depression, anxiety, and managing difficult life transitions. I also incorporate exploration of cultural identity/context and I work with all identities. While in the counseling room, you can expect me to support you in finding more clarity in your story, deepening your understanding of your emotions, and exploring why our bodies respond in the way they do to traumatic events and difficult experiences. Building a trusting, authentic, and genuine counseling relationship is my priority.
Emily Swisher
If you are seeking clarity and understanding into how your experiences have influenced your quality of living, I would greatly enjoy meeting with you! I enjoy working from an empowered approach into our past; addressing past traumas and grief as a way to move forward and live 'in the moment' with a sense of understanding. With my background in community mental health and non-profit organizations, I work to find how we each contribute to and are influenced by our community. Mind-body health and awareness are stressed throughout our work together for optimal healing and vitality. My training in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy is oriented towards those who are seeking insight into themselves through a positive perspective as we work towards making tangible goals for improvement in career, relationships, self-acceptance, and general well-being. Often I find this approach most help for those who currently feel 'stuck'.

Jolene Nell Counseling, LLC
It feels like no matter how hard you try, somehow you always end up right back where you started. Plagued by nagging self-doubts that say you aren’t good enough, strong enough, or smart enough, you wonder how anyone could really love you. Fearful that if other people knew the “real” you, they’d turn away. Bending and contorting yourself to be what others think you should be, you end up feeling anxious or depressed most of the time. And then there are those experiences that you don’t talk about. The shame and guilt are too much. Every day feels harder than the last with no end in sight. You don’t have to live that way anymore. I will teach you the skills to identify the thoughts and beliefs that are getting in your way, the steps to change them, and a new way to see yourself and your experiences. I won’t lie, this is hard work. But it will be so much easier than staying stuck. You can do this and I will be by your side supporting you. Now is the time to step into a new chapter in your life. Experience an inner voice that is encouraging and hopeful. Hold yourself with compassion and care. Embrace your authentic self. Feel free, hopeful and happy. Call me today to set up your free consultation. Welcoming diverse backgrounds, ethnicities, sexual orientations and gender identities.

Chelsey Fjeldheim
Childhood trauma often times comes with a feeling of deep shame, which turns into a core belief that you are bad, undeserving and unworthy of anything good. Shame comes from an old German word meaning “to cover.” You hide your feelings, keeping them secret. Because—if they really knew who you were, they couldn’t love you. You spend your life trying so hard to cover up the bad so no one will see. In doing this you lose your authenticity, your truth, your dreams. You become someone you are not. You lose your light. Working through trauma is hard, it takes courage, dedication and patience, but it is worth it. You are worth it.
