Therapists in Harlowton, MT

I am a licensed counselor in both Montana and Colorado. I graduated from Montana State University in 2008 with a masters degree in Marriage and Family Counseling. I have been providing therapy services for over 10 years and have experience in multiple settings. While much of my experience has been with kids and young adults, I also have a great deal of experience in family therapy, as well as providing parents support and coaching through difficult situations. I also have a great deal of experience in helping those going through transitions including, but not limited to, grief and loss, divorce, changes in careers, and children going off to college. I am also experienced in working with individuals struggling with depression, anxiety, and anger management issues. I also have a background in working with survivors of abuse and other traumatic events. My counseling style is very open, meeting people where they are at. Therapy can be very difficult and people entering therapy may feel very vulnerable. Thus, I like to try to help my clients feel comfortable and supported throughout the process. Compassion and sensitivity are key to my counseling style and I strive to ensure that my clients feel accepted throughout the counseling process. My counseling approach is a combination of cognitive-behavioral, dialectical behavioral, person-centered, and reality-based therapy. I often adjust my counseling style to fit each individual, their therapy goals, and current needs. It takes a great deal of bravery to engage in the self-exploration process and make the changes needed to become the best version of you that you can be. If you are ready to start this process, I would love to be able to support and assist you in your journey to self-discovery, realization, and resiliency.

Hi, my name is Gene Bilodeau. I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor in Montana and a Licensed Professional Counselor in Wyoming. I have many years of experience in the Mental Health field. Over my career I worked in Residential Treatment for Children and Adolescents, Community Mental Health, Higher Education Mental Health and Private Practice. In my career I've worked with individuals of all ages, families, and couples. I value the trust others have placed in me to help them create change in their lives. I see my role as working with people to become the very best version of themselves. I enjoy helping people overcome obstacles in life in order to live the most satisfactory and fulfilling life possible. I accomplish this by listening and understanding the issues and concerns being expressed. I provide a safe and judgement free atmosphere for others and treat people with warmth, respect, compassion, and dignity. I recognize it can be difficult to ask for help and share your situation with a complete stranger and I do not take this lightly. I would very much like to work with you and assist as you create the change in your life you are seeking.

I am a therapist licensed in Montana with over 15 years of experience working as a counselor. I have worked with clients from ages 5 to 96, with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, mood issues, and ADHD. I have also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse. It is exciting to help clients heal, think differently, enjoy more positive emotions and create healthy habits.. My therapy style is warm and interactive. Taking the leap to lean on another human for support can be risky and anxiety provoking. I get it. The core of a helpful therapy is bringing no judgement, I will be respectful, sensitive, and compassionate. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, psychodynamic and acceptance therapy. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific and current needs. It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you. I look forward to working with you!

I am a healer for those seeking enlightenment. I believe in treating everyone with respect and in accordance with the laws set forth by the Lord our God. I am licensed in California and Montana. I offer 15 years of clinical expertise along with my mission, which is to guide injured souls by assessing their wounds and mapping out unique healing paths that reunite them with their purpose in life. I have experience helping clients who battle interference caused by dark energies (stress, anxiety, depression), life lessons disguised as trauma (relationship issues), toxic parenting and narcissistic abuse (trauma, abuse, anger, emotion management). I also offer relationship guidance for those seeking healthy relationships. Healthy relationships reverberate light. Unhealthy relationships breed toxins like anger and contempt, which add darkness to the atmosphere. I help individuals and couples enhance communication, discover root causes of conflict, accept differences, let go, mediate and settle disputes. Working with me is suitable for those who are firm in their decision to heal and overcome obstacles. I work with beings who are motivated to heal and release the stagnant energy attached to old wounds and patterns, commonly referred to as "baggage." Each session is personalized. This means you are unique. Therefore, your journey and the path toward enlightenment will be unique. The guidance offered will assist you in working to achieve your desired outcome, should you follow it.
