June OConnor , LCPC, LPC

June OConnor brings years of lived experience and clinical practice to her work as a therapist, welcoming clients with a grounded, nonjudgmental approach. She returned to school later in life after working through her own challenges and poorer self-esteem, and that perspective informs how she supports others facing grief, anxiety, relationship struggles, addiction, and life changes. With 25 years of practice, she combines practical skill-building with empathy, offering gentle challenge when needed and teaching new behaviors that better serve a person's underlying intentions.

June adapts techniques to each client's comfort level and believes that most behaviors arise from a positive intention even when they no longer work. She emphasizes learning alternatives that meet the same needs more effectively. June holds the credentials LCPC and LPC - state counselor licenses that indicate advanced training and authorization to provide professional mental health counseling - and is licensed to work with people in Montana and Arizona. She divides her time seasonally between those states and continues to accept new clients who seek experienced, steady guidance.

Therapeutic approaches and accessible online care

June blends client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy to help clients explore their experiences and build practical coping skills. Client-centered therapy focuses on understanding a person from their own perspective, offering empathy and support while the client sets the pace and goals. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thought patterns and teaches concrete strategies to change behaviors and reduce symptoms like anxiety or low mood.

She also uses emotionally-focused therapy when relationship patterns and attachment concerns are central, helping partners and individuals identify and shift the emotional responses that drive conflict or distance. June approaches treatment collaboratively - she will work with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences rather than imposing a single technique.

Online therapy with June is offered by licensed professionals through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, which makes it easier to arrange sessions around work, family responsibilities, or travel. These options increase flexibility and continuity of care, allowing clients to receive consistent support from a therapist who adapts approaches to the medium that works best for them.
