I am Bailee Schnell, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker supporting adults in Montana who are wanting extra support or understanding of themselves in their life. Many of my clients are also members of the LGBTQIA+ community, but more so they are high functioning individuals like you who find themselves struggling with persistent symptoms of depression and anxiety without an easily identifiable cause.

I help individuals explore and understand their past relationships and experiences, while also providing some insight on the psychological biology that occurs as a result of these experiences and relationships. We work together to identify and clarify your core values that serve as a guide as we work to challenge problematic thinking patterns, implement boundaries with those around you, and navigate challenging life situations with grace.

I help individuals like you move from a place of uncertainty, self-scrutiny, and anxiety, to a place of authenticity, joy, and self-acceptance.

A BIT ABOUT ME

  • I firmly believe you are the expert on you. You know what is working for you, and you know what’s not. I’m not the type of therapist who is going to come in and start instructing you on changes you need to make to improve your life. Instead, I want to create a safe space for us to explore what is or isn't working for you in an organized way, while also offering educational insights, such as psychoeducation on the brain, trauma, nervous system regulation, or attachment theory. You are the boss when we are in session, and you lead the way as I support you.

  • I was born and raised in Wyoming, and have lived in Montana for the past eight years. I was a passionate foster parent for about four years, which resulted in the adoption of my daughter and son as a single parent. I feel passionate about helping those who have overcome traumatic backgrounds and generational trauma, and about supporting others however possible.

  • Educationally, I have my Bachelor’s of Social Work from the University of Wyoming and my Master’s of Social Work from Walla Walla University. I am Licensed in Montana (BBH-LCSW-LIC-52793). I am trained in Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and utilize aspects of narrative therapy, mindfulness therapy, solution focused therapy, in addition to orienting myself in attachment theory and feminist theory.

Everyone can benefit from more support. You deserve to be happy and feel better. Schedule your free consultation today to start being intentional about finding healing.

Frequently Asked Questions About Online Therapy in Montana

  • While providing free therapy is a lifelong dream of Fostering Growth, we aren’t there yet. We start by providing a free 15-minute phone consultation, so you can get a better understanding of what we offer and what our vibe is, before engaging in billable services. We are also contracted with multiple insurance panels, and are happy to help you inquire with your insurance provider, to see what benefits are covered under you plan.

  • Yes! Online therapy has been found to be very effective for many individuals, and there are numerous studies that suggest online therapy can be just as effective as in person treatment. One of the most beneficial aspects of online therapy is accessibility to treatment, regardless of where you are. This is particularly beneficial for individuals in rural areas, with physical limitations, or with busy schedules, as it allows you to obtain support from wherever you are.

  • Fostering Growth uses a third party platform called Therapy Notes to facilitate online therapy. You can call for your free 15 minute consultation or request an appointment here to receive access to our therapy portal. From there, you will be able to access a direct link to your session from the appointments page of your portal account, which will take you to a HIPAA secure video room where we will meet. Therapy Notes may ask for access to your camera and microphone to facilitate the session, and if any issues arise we are always happy to help troubleshoot, as is the support team over at Therapy Notes.
