Community Engagement & Groups

My commitment to health and healing extends beyond the therapy room. I believe that community connection and nature are vital components of the recovery process.

Community Leadership I have been fortunate to serve the Montana community through various leadership and mentorship roles, including:

• Bridgercare: Past Clinical Supervisor and Board President.

• Montana Wilderness School: Former Board Member, supporting transformational outdoor experiences for youth.

• Reel Recovery: Former Board Member and facilitator for retreats supporting men navigating the challenges of cancer.

• Clinical Mentorship: I take great pride in supervising the next generation of behavioral health providers within community health and nonprofit settings.

Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom - Viktor Frankl
