Cow Trail Counseling PLLC.

Therapy designed to help you forge a new trail in the direction you choose.

Mia Counseling Billings, MT

Everyone has a story, full of memories and experiences that have shaped who we are today.

Sometimes the nature of our story can feel less like calm water, and more like capsizing in a whitewater current, which can train our nervous system to be very protective of our safety (hyper-vigilance). When we can learn how to reassure our nervous system of our safety, we can find it easier to reconnect with, and show up as, our most authentic selves.

To get there, it is often helpful to process any periods of stress or trauma, while learning how to compassionately pay attention to the signals our bodies are sending in relation to the feelings and beliefs that shape our lives.

When equipped with the right skills, we can each decide what is important to us and what we would like to let go of. I am here to help introduce you to some of those skills, so that you can feel empowered to lead the way through your therapeutic journey. After all, the destination is yours!

A Collaborative and Integrative Process for Self Discovery

Through a combination of trauma-informed cognitive behavioral and somatic therapy, we can honor the road we have traveled, while stepping onto a new path.

Just like the many cow trails meandering through the seas of Montana sagebrush, we develop neural pathways in our minds based on the most well-worn ways in which we experience our world. These hard-wired internal roadmaps impact our thoughts, beliefs and behaviors and form the basis of how we perceive relationships, jobs, finances, health and wellness, and our own self worth (to name a few). One step at a time, we can gently begin to tread new trails that lead you closer to the things in life which you find most meaningful to you.
