Tara Murphy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Suicidal thoughts and self-injury impulses often come from parts of us trying to protect against unbearable pain, emotional overwhelm, or feelings of worthlessness. Using Internal Family Systems (IFS), I help clients gently explore and understand these reactive parts with compassion, reducing shame and building a sense of inner safety. Somatic regulation, mindfulness, and DBT-informed skills are integrated to strengthen self-regulation, improve coping, and decrease overwhelm. Together, we work on uncovering the deeper layers of distress and developing new ways to soothe and support yourself so that these protective impulses become less urgent and less consuming. My diagnostic expertise and collaboration with prescribers ensure comprehensive care when additional support is needed.

Dr. Michael M. Grant
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist PhD, MBA
Many of us feel pain and when we think that pain is insurmountable and permanent and there is no other way out, we sometimes think of ending our life as the solution. I do not go crazy when someone tells me that are having suicidal thoughts. I simply accept them and start digging into what the underlying pain is about and how I can help the person lesson that agony.

PSYCHe, PLLC
Psychologist, PhD, DBT-LBC™, LPC, PsyD, MSW, Marriage and Family Counselor, LCSW
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) was one of the first therapies to treat highly suicidal individuals on an outpatient basis. Because DBT considers suicide as the solution, not the actual problem itself, DBT therapists are focused on identifying the actual problems in order to assist with different, tangible solutions. Not only that, but DBT therapists are able to speak frankly about death instead of tiptoeing around it, treating patients with respect rather than patronizing with whispery tones and “concerned” looks. Within DBT, no person is treated as “fragile” and though the situation may be serious, we don’t take ourselves too seriously.

Billings is Montana's largest city and functions as the primary regional hub for healthcare, commerce, and services across a vast area of eastern Montana, Wyoming, and the Dakotas—a region that includes significant Native American populations from multiple reservations, agricultural and ranching communities, and energy industry workers. Billings Clinic and St. Vincent Healthcare provide behavioral health services and serve as referral destinations for communities hundreds of miles away, making Billings uniquely important to the mental health landscape of the entire northern Great Plains. The city's role as a regional hub means that the most challenging and underserved mental health needs in the region—including those of reservation communities, ranch workers, and rural families—flow through Billings. Common therapy concerns include rural isolation, agricultural and energy industry stress, Indigenous community mental health, trauma, and the challenges of a relatively small city carrying the mental health burden of an enormous and underserved geographic region.
