ABOUT ME"Authenticity is the daily practice of letting go of who we think we're supposed to be and embracing who we are." -Brené Brown |
Greetings!
My name is Brittany Garcia (she/her) and I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor practicing in Billings, Montana, and providing telehealth in Idaho and Montana. I work with older teens & adults experiencing symptoms relating to trauma survival, depression and debilitating limiting beliefs about themselves and the world. I offer Trauma-Focused CBT, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), and EMDR therapy for clients hoping to heal attachment wounds, break harmful cycles, cope with cancer, and create healthy connections. I am an LGBT+ affirming clinician and have worked with several clients on understanding and accepting their own identities, live more authentically and build a support system. My experience comes from working at an advocacy center with survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault, in community mental health, and with teens at a residential treatment center prior to private practice. I have enjoyed working with clients age 3 to 85 incorporating trauma-focused and multicultrual therapy. I fully completed EMDR training in 2019. I have training and experience with treating dissociative disorders, recent or ongoing traumatic stress, and disaster response therapy via EMDR therapy when appropriate. Life happens. We need support and self compassion to get through it. Believing that authentic, healthy connection with others is necessary for healing and happiness, I intend to help clients create mutually-growth-fostering relationships where both parties feel heard and understood in and outside of our sessions alongside of your personal treatment goals. |
