EMDR Therapy: A path towards freedom.

EMDR and CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy)
Online in Bozeman, Montana.

Carol Maker, LCSW

I help parents (and pre-parents) heal generational trauma.

Protect the next generation: Healing trauma is often about healing the impact of generations of trauma. I support parents struggling to find the right balance between healing the past, improving the present, and parenting in the here and now. It's hard but sacred work.

Providing Telehealth from the privacy of your home or office.

Before I became a psychotherapist, I went through a series of devastating personal losses. Because of what I learned and continue to learn, it became my mission to help others rediscover their best selves. I understand trauma -- complex PTSD, attachment disorders, and family trauma -- from the inside out. I support struggling parents (and those preparing to be parents). If you are ready to do the work, I can help you gain control of out-of-control emotions and responses.
