Our Story Built from a belief that care should feel personal

Brighter Sky Counseling was founded in 2016 by Erin Bratsky, MSW, LCPC, with a simple but deeply held vision: to build a practice where clients feel truly seen, and where clinicians have the support they need to do their best work.

What started as a solo practice has grown into one of Billings' most trusted multidisciplinary mental health groups, now home to more than ten licensed therapists serving individuals, couples, families, teens, and children across a wide range of specialties.

My vision has always been to create a warm, welcoming practice where clinicians thrive and clients feel truly seen. A place that reflects the kind of care I believe everyone deserves.

We are proud to be rooted in Billings, Montana, and committed to the community we serve. Whether you come to us in person at our West End office or connect with us from anywhere in the state via telehealth, our goal is always the same: to meet you where you are and walk alongside you toward something better.

Our Approach How we show up for clients
Individualized Care

No two people are the same, and neither is their path to healing. Every client is matched with a therapist whose skills and style fit their specific needs.

Evidence-Based Practice

Our team draws from proven, research-backed modalities including CBT, EMDR, Gottman Method, somatic therapy, DBT, and more, tailored to what works for you.

Warm & Welcoming

From your first call to your ongoing sessions, we work hard to make BSC feel like a place you actually want to come back to. Even our therapy dogs agree.

What Guides Us Our Values

These values shape how we care for our clients, support our team, and show up in the Billings community every day.

Community

Community means belonging, connection, and shared purpose. We believe we are better together, supporting one another through collaboration, inclusion, and mutual care, building a network of helpers committed to collective well-being.

Growth

Growth means embracing learning, curiosity, and continuous improvement. We welcome feedback, challenge our assumptions, and seek out new ideas and skills. Growth is both personal and collective, a commitment to becoming the best we can be, together.

Imperfection

Imperfection is often seen as a flaw, but we see it as a source of growth, resilience, and connection. We embrace imperfection as part of what makes us human and helps us support others with greater empathy.

Harmony

Harmony honors the complexity of being human. We create space for all emotions and experiences, recognizing that joy and pain, connection and solitude can coexist. We strive for a balance that is fluid and responsive to life's ever-changing needs.
