You don’t have to have it all figured out.
You may be keeping up with daily life while carrying more than people realize. Counseling offers room to understand what’s difficult and consider what could help.
Depression
Talk through low mood, disconnection, or loss of motivation and identify manageable next steps.
Stress & life transitions
Make space for the demands, uncertainty, and changing expectations that come with life’s shifts.
Relationship & family difficulties
Consider patterns, communication, and boundaries, and how you want to respond in your relationships.
Emotional awareness & regulation
Build a clearer understanding of what you feel and explore ways to respond when emotions are hard to name or manage.
Problem solving & decision making
Sort through competing priorities, examine options, and work toward decisions that fit your circumstances.
A real conversation.
A practical way forward.
I’m Bill Frederick, a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor in Montana.
My approach is straightforward, empathetic, and collaborative. I want to understand you as an individual: what matters to you, what has been difficult, and what you want from counseling.
Person-Centered Therapy is the foundation of my work. From there, we can bring together emotional exploration, critical thinking, and practical problem solving in ways that are useful for you.
There is no single model that fits everyone. We’ll work together to find an approach that makes sense for your needs and circumstances.
More about my approachMy Approach
Start with the person.
Find what’s useful.
Counseling begins with understanding you. These approaches offer different ways to explore concerns and work toward meaningful goals, at a pace that fits.
Your experience and priorities help guide the work.
The Foundation
Person-Centered
We begin with your perspective, creating space to discuss concerns honestly and feel understood. Your values and goals shape our conversations.
Solution-Focused
When useful, we look at your strengths, times when things have gone differently, and workable next steps you can put into practice.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
We can examine connections between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors to understand patterns and consider what might help.
Polyvagal-informed
When relevant, we consider how stress and nervous-system responses affect your experience, and explore ways to support emotional regulation.
