About Blake
Blake Passmore is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in Montana with 33 years of professional experience. He focuses on relationship concerns, self esteem, depression, coping with life changes, coaching, grief, intimacy-related issues, parenting, and anger. Blake also lists additional focus areas such as adoption and foster care, communication problems, control issues, divorce and separation, fatherhood issues, forgiveness, guilt and shame, life purpose, men’s issues, and midlife crisis.
Blake uses a direct, person-centered way of working. He brings life experience and practical skills into sessions. Conversations are straightforward and grounded in everyday examples. The aim is to talk through what is happening now and find usable steps forward.
He draws on Client-Centered Therapy to listen closely and help people reflect on their own goals. He uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify patterns of thinking and action that feed anger, low mood, or relationship strains. Solution-Focused Therapy is used to build short-term, practical strategies that fit a person’s daily life.
Blake also works in a coaching mode when clients want goal-focused support and motivational structure. That can mean setting small, measurable steps and tracking progress between sessions. He keeps language plain and practical so people understand what they’re trying and why.
Blake’s approach is collaborative. He encourages people to bring specific situations to sessions - a recurring argument, a workplace frustration, or the fallout from a big life change. He asks questions, offers observations from his years of practice, and helps people choose manageable next steps.
How his approaches translate to online sessions
Blake uses Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on listening and reflecting so people can clarify what matters to them. That approach helps people name the situations that trigger anger or shame and decide what they want to change.He also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, a method that looks at thinking patterns and behaviors. CBT helps identify automatic thoughts that fuel anger or low mood and then tries practical experiments to shift those responses. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on short-term, actionable steps. It emphasizes small changes that can be tried right away and measured over time.
Choosing an approach is collaborative. Blake works with each person to decide which combination of methods fits their goals and daily life. He talks through options and adjusts the plan as progress is made.
