In 2005, Dr. Lantz moved to Montana to provide care to patients in southwestern parts of the state for AWARE, where he also served as medical director from 2008-2015. Since 2015, Dr. Lantz has helped patients in Helena through his private practice, Big Sky Psychiatry.

Organizer/Conference Presenter: Kyrie Russ, MS, LCPC Kyrie Russ is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor in Montana and the owner of Mount Helena Counseling, PLLC. Her practice focuses on providing evidence-based treatments, such as Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Exposure therapies, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). Over the past two years, Kyrie has expanded her practice into training and consultation, as she has noticed gaps in educational opportunities for behavioral health providers in Montana. Prior to private practice, Kyrie was the Associate Director of Counseling Services in a college setting. Her educational and career background has led to a passion for teaching, both with clients and with other counselors. She strives to help clients understand why we do what we do, how the brain works, and practical strategies for change. Prior to becoming a therapist, Kyrie worked for Cornell University's extension service, disseminating research-based human development information to parents and families. Kyrie has an undergraduate degree in Human Development from Montana State, a Master's Degree in Adult Education from Buffalo State College, and a Master's degree in Counseling from the University of Great Falls.
