About Chad
LCSW in Montana with four years of clinical experience, Chad Petrulis helps people facing family conflict, parenting strain, stress, anxiety, and related concerns. He focuses on practical talk, clear goals, and steady support for people navigating grief, relationship problems, addiction issues, and life changes. Chad speaks English and accepts international clients.
Chad frames sessions around specific problems rather than abstract theory. He listens for patterns in family of origin, attachment, and behavior that keep problems repeating. Then he works with the person to try concrete ways to change those patterns, such as shifting communication habits or managing impulses.
He also pays attention to parenting and fatherhood issues, blended family dynamics, and challenges tied to adoption, foster care, or feeling isolated. For people with ADHD, impulsivity, or struggles with self-esteem, he focuses on practical strategies that can be tried between sessions.
When coping with compassion fatigue or burnout, Chad helps people sort priorities and rebuild routines that reduce overwhelm. For grief, anger, or feelings of emptiness, sessions emphasize small steps toward reengaging with daily life and relationships.
Chad uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and shapes the work to the person’s goals. He asks for a short intake to learn about current concerns, then co-designs a plan that fits the person’s schedule and pace.

How therapeutic approaches shape online sessions
Chad uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on concrete change. One approach is problem-focused work that identifies repeating family patterns and teaches new communication habits; this helps with chronic family conflict and blended family issues. Another approach centers on skills for impulse control and emotional regulation, which can be useful for ADHD-related impulsivity, anger, and stress management.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Chad will work collaboratively to decide which techniques fit a person’s goals and daily life. He begins by learning the main concerns, then suggests methods to try and adjusts them based on what the person reports is helpful.
Confirm the specific session formats before booking because the biography does not list them. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. These practical benefits can help someone keep continuity with their work on family, parenting, or impulse-control goals while managing other obligations.
