My name is Joseph Hansen, and I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Montana with 8 years of professional experience in mental health. I offer virtual support as a therapist with BetterHelp.com and run a private practice in Great Falls, MT, where I provide compassionate mental health services to the local community. Additionally, I serve as the President of the Board of Directors at Dynamic Recovery, an organization focused on helping individuals overcome substance abuse.
In my work, I have experience helping clients with stress and anxiety, motivation, self-esteem, confidence, career difficulties, and coping with life changes. I believe that you are the expert of your own story and that you possess many strengths that will assist you in overcoming the challenges you face. It takes courage to take that first step toward a more fulfilling and happier life, and I’m here to support you in that process.
Before this chapter of my life, I spent 17.5 years in the United States Air Force, serving in Security Forces and later as a Readiness NCO. My military career took me around the world, including to Bahrain, Turkey, and South Korea, where I developed resilience, adaptability, and a deep appreciation for diverse cultures.
Whether through therapy or personal growth, my goal is to help others recognize their own strengths and guide them through life’s challenges.
