I am a licensed clinical social worker providing a safe and inviting space for clients to work through a wide range of issues including anxiety, depression, grief, break-ups, stress, relationship issues, and struggles with identify and self-esteem. Together we will focus on your natural strengths and interests to help you to cope and feel better. I very much understand the importance of building a trusting and safe therapeutic relationship in order for clients to feel comfortable opening up and truly working toward their goals. I received my Master's in Social Work degree from the University of Denver and have over 14 years of experience providing therapy services and support to individuals of all ages. My background includes work in community mental health, grief and loss centers, private practice, and hospice care. I provide an eclectic approach to therapy that is tailored to meet the needs of each individual client- whether you are looking for traditional talk therapy or creative hands-on ideas for expressing yourself. My goal is to meet you where you are at in your journey and support you in finding the movement and hope needed to feel happy with yourself and your life.

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.

I offer a variety of counseling services through my counseling practice. Each is designed to help you live a more fulfilling, engaging and intentional life. Alongside talk therapy, I offer Art Therapy and Equine Assisted Mental Health as an invitation to the many healing benefits of cultivating creativity, horses, nature, movement and touch. In my therapeutic practice, I integrate art therapy and equine assisted psychotherapy with cognitive behavioral therapy. The client can tell their story through the process of art making and the horse as a way to explore their own life as a daring journey; to embody new sources of strength, creativity and renewal. Which approach is right for you? Cognitive therapy adds another dimension – the Here and Now – and therefore can spur change in a timely fashion. Cognitive therapy examines how an individual perceives and interprets meaning in his/her daily life. It was originally designed to treat depression, but is now used for a number of mental disorders. It works to solve current problems and change unhelpful thinking and behavior. Cognitive behavioral therapy mixed with Art therapy and Equine Assisted therapy works well in this situation; it develops a new, healthy view of past and current life situations. It takes a great deal of humility for any of us to acknowledge that we are in some way stuck or unhappy, whether this is due to a problematic situation, a stagnant or conflictual relationship, or a self-defeating way of approaching things. It takes courage to open one’s self to explore the underlying beliefs and emotions that perpetuate these issues. Therapy can provide fresh insight and objectivity about these beliefs and emotions, allowing you to develop new ways of approaching the situations or patterns that are troubling you. My role as a therapist is to provide psychological perspective, to facilitate a productive inquiry about your concerns, and to help you develop new skills so that you can make vital changes in your life. Through one-on-one meetings, you can come to see yourself, your obstacles and your opportunities more clearly – and make decisions that bring you closer to the person you want to be and the life you want to live.
June OConnor
Hi! My name is June. As you can see, I’m an older person. I’d like you to consider using me as your therapist because I am older. I have had many of the feelings you are experiencing myself. I’ve had some tough times and poor self esteem and worked through life shifts. I am able to teach some things that are only learned with age. I’ve practiced my skills for over 20 years. I went back to school late in life because I overcame struggles and wanted to help others do the same. I’ve seen a lot so I’m less judgmental. It’s normal to feel uncomfortable when first starting therapy. I may challenge you but will do so safely. I love therapy, listening to others and sharing what I can. You will find I work hard for you. The techniques I use are varied to my clients comfort. I believe all behaviors are for a positive intention. Some just don't work anymore. I'd like to teach you new behaviors for that same intention that will work better. I now live in Montana in the summer and Arizona the rest of the year. I am licensed to work with people from both states and no other states.

At some point in our life, we all face the unexpected, whether it be the loss of someone important, a job, financial struggles, pain and sickness, or any of the other things life throws our way. It is helpful to have someone to talk to and offer a listening ear and perhaps some different perspective during those times. I hope to provide those things to my clients, as well as utilizing my experience and training to help others through the tough times. 2 Corinthians 1:4 I tend to be client centered, meeting clients where they are and help them reach where they want to go.

Wendie Vanderwater
I have 19 years experience working with all different types of people. I use many different treatment methods, geared towards what works for you. My style is to be honest and real with people. I am not judgmental and believe many people are too hard on themselves. You choose what you are comfortable with. Do you want homework or just to work in therapy? Often treatments are combined such as DBT and CBT. We may work on mindfulness along with journaling as a way to get in touch with feelings. I use DBT on a daily basis so i know it works. Mindfulness is an important factor in treatment. I will ask questions in order to discover what you need. I see issues as a challenge to discovering what works for you. I also believe that you need to do things to make yourself happy. Volunteer, join a book club, it is important to keep yourself active.
