Throughout her clinical training and post-graduate experience, Ms. LaMountain has supported individuals, couples, and families with goals such as stress management, conflict resolution, family and developmental transitions, identity exploration, and relationship strengthening.
Ms. LaMountain is trained in a systemic and integrative approach and works towards clients’ goals on individual, relational, and communal levels through various therapeutic models. She is committed to helping their clients identify their own strengths and constraints to become their own best advocates. Ms. LaMountain has experience working with people managing chronic illness and, as a member of this population, is passionate about helping clients build community and autonomy on their health management journeys. Drawing on her background in philosophy, community organizing, and social justice, she strives to work through an intersectional and culturally humble lens. After working with underserved populations in The Family Institute's Community Program, Ms. LaMountain understands the significance of considering cultural factors in delivering meaningful care, including how race, religion, socioeconomic class, and sexual and gender identity can impact families and individuals.
Ms. LaMountain aims to approach the therapeutic process with warmth, authenticity, and curiosity. She believes that at its core, therapy is about the relational process of making sense of one’s world, and that a safe and caring therapeutic relationship is a meaningful place to start on one’s journey of healing.
