Montana Center for Somatic Psychotherapy’s mission is to provide access to the highest quality compassionate mental health care integrating the body and mind in Montana.

These clinicians then are able to provide warm, creative, well informed, individual, couples, family, and group counseling that incorporates the body, emotions, and the mind.

Are you a licensed therapist (LCSW, LMFT, LCPC, PhD, PsyD) seeking to enhance your skills and work with motivated clients?

Are you looking to find renewed fulfillment in your work as a therapist?

WHO YOU ARE

You are energized and inspired by working with your ideal clients. As a well-trained, ethical, and licensed mental health professional, you confidently address anxiety, trauma, depression, and self-esteem concerns. However, your current caseload feels overwhelming and is affecting your well-being.

You are looking for a group that supports your interest in developing body-based therapy skills for trauma, anxiety, and depression. You are inspired by our Sensorimotor Psychotherapy model and want to deepen your expertise in somatic approaches. Having completed some self-study, you seek a collaborative environment to continue your growth and prefer working within a team over solo private practice.
