Lawrence "Lance" Bischoff
Hello, you came here with the first courageous step! And , I am sure you want respect, restoration, reassurance from your therapist. I am humbly grateful to earn that trust if you choose to work with me. My schedule is wide open due to a recent return from overseas. I have been on the Better Help platform over a number of years and enjoy both US and foreign-based clients! Clients have told me they appreciate my candor and narrative style. For me, it is about connecting the dots and clarifying new views that are healing, relevant, practical and timely. My background of 15+ years in counseling has covered the gamut of typical and difficult situations and mental health challenges. I believe that desire and belief are keys to success! Also, I believe in making the process simpler and focused more on today, results, the doable! My toolkit has all the buzzword techniques you've likely heard of, but it is not the theory that makes my approach work - it is tailoring our work to what is helpful to YOU! We are the same, and we are different. I am adaptable and check in as to what is working for you! With the holidays coming, let's be proactive to rebalance where you are! I am honored to be here for you! Let's start right away! I prefer helping you on video sessions. Chat seems more impersonal in my approach. I hope that works for you! Finally, FYI, I graduated at the top of my class with broad exposure to systems theory and dynamics. I use an eclectic approach with realistic tools and insights to fit the newer science proving we are not stuck, and the brain can "rewire" to handle stress signals differently. Very exciting for all of us! Respectfully, Lawrence "Lance" Bischoff, MSC-MFCT LCPC, EMDR Level I.

By using a present focused approach I create a caring environment that will help you make changes in your life. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Missoula specializing in psychotherapy with individuals and couples. I have over 20 years experience working with people who are dealing with depression, anxiety, loss/grief, trauma/PTSD, ADHD, and relationship issues. I have a Bachelors degree in Cultural Anthropology. My focus is on using a cognitive behavioral approach to understand patterns of thinking and change self defeating beliefs; and developing mindfulness skills to create greater self-acceptance and satisfaction in your life.

Welcome! I’m passionate about helping people reconnect with their authentic selves and create meaningful, lasting change. I work with adults navigating a wide range of challenges, including anxiety, depression, trauma (including abuse), disordered eating, grief, stress, relationship difficulties, parenting challenges, and life transitions. I also have experience supporting individuals with mood and personality disorders, substance use, self-harm, and suicidal ideation. I’m a Nationally Board-Certified Counselor and a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in Montana. I hold a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling with a concentration in addiction from Walden University. My approach is primarily person-centered, meaning I view therapy as a collaborative, empowering process. You are the expert on your life—I’m here to walk alongside you with support, guidance, and compassion. Healing begins when people feel safe, seen, and respected. In our work together, I integrate somatic, relational, and attachment-based practices with evidence-based modalities such as CBT, DBT, TF-CBT, existential therapy, mindfulness, crisis intervention, psychoeducation, and solution-focused therapy. I also incorporate holistic elements—like breathwork, gentle movement, meditation, and grounding techniques—when appropriate. I believe healing often involves learning to listen to your body, reconnect with your intuition, and rebuild trust in your inner voice, especially when it has been dismissed or overshadowed by past experiences. Everything we do in therapy is tailored to your needs, your pace, and your comfort. I am certified in Telehealth Therapy (THTC) and currently provide online counseling services. ⸻ Practice Hours & Communication My availability is Monday through Thursday, 9:00 AM – 1:00 PM (MST). I typically respond to messages at least twice daily—once in the morning and once in the evening—and often more frequently when possible. You’re also welcome to schedule live audio or live chat sessions in advance. Please note: I do not offer video sessions. This allows for a comfortable, flexible, and accessible space where you can share openly and reflect without pressure. ⸻ Important Safety Information BetterHelp is not intended for crisis situations or immediate safety needs. If you are experiencing suicidal thoughts, considering harming yourself or others, or facing an emergency, please seek in-person help or call emergency services immediately: • U.S. – Call or text 988 (Suicide & Crisis Lifeline). You can also reach the previous number at 1-800-273-TALK (8255). • U.K. – Call 111, Option 2 for mental health support, or contact the Samaritans at 116 123. You may also text “DESERVE” to 85258 to reach trained volunteers. ⸻ If You Are Experiencing Domestic Violence or Relationship Abuse Call the U.S. National Domestic Violence Hotline at 1-800-799-SAFE (7233) for confidential crisis intervention and referrals to shelters and support services. You can also visit the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence for resources, including safety planning, shelter access, and legal aid. Relationship abuse involves one partner exerting power and control over the other. This can include physical violence, coercion, manipulation, or controlling behaviors. Recognizing these dynamics can be the first step toward safety and healing. ⸻ I look forward to supporting you on your journey toward healing and wellness.

Seeking therapy takes courage and a want to invest in yourself, and finding the right therapist can make all the difference. My goal is to provide a space where you feel heard, respected, and supported while we work together toward meaningful, lasting change. I have experience working with adolescents and adults facing a wide range of emotional and mental health challenges. My primary areas of focus include trauma and PTSD, narcissism and narcissistic abuse, anxiety disorders, ADHD, bipolar disorder, and the lasting effects of adverse life experiences. I also work with individuals experiencing depression, life transitions, stress, relationship challenges, emotional dysregulation, and low self-esteem. I understand that no two people experience these struggles in the same way. Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, trapped in patterns created by past trauma, navigating the highs and lows of bipolar disorder, or struggling with focus and executive functioning related to ADHD, we will develop a treatment plan tailored to your unique needs, strengths, and goals. My therapeutic approach is collaborative, compassionate, and evidence-based. I integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), trauma-informed care, mindfulness-based interventions, and strengths-based techniques to help clients better understand themselves, develop healthier coping skills, improve emotional regulation, and build resilience. I believe healing occurs when clients feel genuinely understood and empowered—not judged. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling exhausted, stuck, or uncertain if things can improve. Together, we work to reduce symptoms, increase confidence, strengthen relationships, and create practical strategies that can be used in everyday life. My goal is not only to help you feel better but also to help you build a life that feels more balanced, meaningful, and authentic. Wherever you are in your journey, I would be honored to walk alongside you. I look forward to helping you take the next step toward healing and growth.

Why work with a licensed therapist near you?
