JAMIE LINGENFELTER

MSW, SWLC

Welcome! I'm so glad you're here. Starting therapy can feel overwhelming, and I want you to know that I am here to make this process as approachable and personalized as possible. At Bridger Peaks, our team and I are dedicated to creating a safe, client-centered, and nonjudgmental environment where you can explore your journey toward healing and growth. I believe in the strength found through vulnerability, and I am committed to supporting you in reaching your unique therapeutic goals.

I use evidence-based interventions tailored to your individual needs, including:

  • Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

  • Motivational Interviewing

  • Client-Centered Play Therapy

  • Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)

  • Psychodynamic Therapy

  • Expressive Art Techniques

  • Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

I specialize in working with youth and young adults and feel privileged to hear the stories of both triumphs and challenges that today’s generation faces. Together, we’ll work to create a life aligned with your values, discover your inner strengths, build a support network, and help you find your voice.

My clinical focus includes helping clients navigate:

  • Trauma

  • Depression

  • Anxiety

  • Bipolar Disorder

  • Self-harm

  • Communication issues

  • Coping skills development

  • Life transitions

I hold a Bachelor's in Social Work from the University of Montana and a Master's in Social Work from Walla Walla University. Raised in Montana, I am committed to providing exceptional mental health care to our rural communities. As a second-generation social worker, I’ve been shaped by the influences of my mentors in the mental health field, which deeply informs my approach to therapy.

When I’m not at work, you’ll likely find me running or walking with my dog, trying new recipes in the kitchen, relaxing by Montana’s rivers and lakes, gardening, or spending quality time with loved ones.
