Angela Dailey

Angela Dailey has provided therapy in rural Montana for 30 years. Before beginning private practice in 1995, she spent five years as Director of Services for a mental health center. Practicing in a rural setting, which she compares to the role of a country doctor, has given her broad experience treating a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship problems, self-esteem struggles, childhood abuse, domestic violence, behavior challenges, and life transitions.

She practices with a holistic, eclectic approach, tailoring therapeutic methods to fit each person rather than forcing a client to fit a single model of therapy. Angela also teaches college-level Psychology and Sociology and brings that academic knowledge together with clinical experience into the therapy room.

Angela has a special interest in the relationship between nutrition and mental health. She is the author of the book “Cooking to Cure, A nutritional approach to anxiety and depression,” which focuses on balancing neurochemistry through nutrition and meal preparation. She emphasizes that nutrition, regular exercise, and positive social relationships all have a significant impact on mental well-being and on the ability to manage stress.

Angela can assist people navigating difficult life transitions by offering problem-solving strategies and supporting healthy lifestyle changes that improve overall mental and physical health. She aims to help clients build coping skills that serve them now and in future transitions. She is a licensed clinical social worker in Montana with credentials from the state behavioral health licensing board, and she is available to listen without judgment and to work with clients to identify and implement options.

Please note that her schedule can change from hour to hour and those changes may not always be reflected in posted availability. Prospective clients are encouraged to contact her about times that do not appear on the calendar.
