Maurice Pritchard, LCPC

Maurice Pritchard is a licensed clinical professional counselor (LCPC) who centers his work on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. He brings a straightforward, practical style to sessions and focuses on real-life problems like stress, anxiety, relationship strain, and grief. Maurice writes plainly and values collaboration, helping people take small steps toward change.

Maurice has been in the mental health field for decades and earned his master's degree in 2007. Over the years he has worked in hospitals, crisis centers, residential programs, and community mental health settings. That breadth of experience means he is familiar with crisis work, court-ordered anger management, and grief work.

In sessions he uses CBT as a foundation and also draws on mindfulness and solution-focused ideas. He aims to keep conversations practical - identifying unhelpful thinking, testing new behaviors, and trying short experiments between meetings. The focus is problem solving that fits each person’s life.

Maurice has worked with people facing depression, trauma including PTSD, addictions, bipolar concerns, and complex challenges such as chronic illness or the stress of first responder roles. He also addresses intimacy and relationship issues, abandonment and attachment struggles, and parenting-related stress.

He practices in Montana and conducts work in English. Maurice prefers a client-centered approach and encourages people who are ready to try change to reach out through the provider’s matching process.

How Maurice Uses CBT, Mindfulness, and Solution-Focused Work Online

CBT helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and test different behaviors. Online sessions can be used to practice these skills, with homework or short experiments discussed between meetings.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and calm the body. In an online session a therapist might guide a brief practice and then talk about how to bring the technique into daily routines.

Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, achievable changes and on what works now. This approach is useful for people who want focused steps and quicker progress on a specific problem.

Choosing an approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk about goals, try methods, and adjust based on what helps. Clients’ preferences and life demands guide which techniques are kept and which are changed.

Session formats are not listed in the profile, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove the time spent traveling to and from meetings.
