Therapists in Idaho

I have been working in numerous areas of psychotherapy and mental health for 20+ years including depression, anxiety, inpatient, outpatient and private practice. Over the last 20 years, I have developed my therapeutic approach to effectively assist people from all backgrounds in dealing with and overcoming challenges. As your therapist, I will strive to provide you with the best quality services possible in helping to resolve personal struggles and increase your satisfaction in life. Together we can work on making these improvements to your daily life, your interpersonal relationships, as well as helping you in reaching your personal goals. I provide you with helpful assistance to foster personal change.

Welcome! Here is a little about me and my treatment interests. I am a licensed psychologist, and have been trained in and work with adults, as well as adolescents. Besides more traditional talk therapy, I am certified in both Spiritual Direction and Clinical Hypnotherapy, and have extensive training in Energy Psychology/work. As part of my interests, I have spent significant time training in different meditation techniques. First, learning techniques for myself, then, how they work, how to teach others, as well as using meditation as a therapeutic tool. My experience with meditation is that a lot of people say they want to learn meditation, but it is hard to start. I answer back, we start where at the best place for you to start. The research on anxiety shows that the components of meditation can be really helpful in reducing anxiety, and beginning to have control of one's life (in a time where life can feel so out of control). Whether you are interested in meditation or not, either way, I can 'meet' you where you are at, and help you on whatever path you are interested in. A big question or statement I get asked when I meet someone virtually in our first session is what do I do, or I have not done this before, or not virtually. I say something like this: It is not a problem....I know what to do and I will teach you. First, we meet and greet on your wall. Then I explain the process and answer any questions that you might have. We talk, just like two people talking....so that I can learn about you and what brings you here. We talk more about the process and begin to formulate your goals. My goals are your goals. I don't control the process, rather I guide. And then as we work together, we find your own individual path to meet those goals. We know the whole time that as life changes, so do goals. And we flexibly work to achieve your ultimate state of mind. I would love to work with you to help you find what you are looking for. My schedule is fairly flexible. Each week I look at the my schedule an open a very small number of time slots that I am available. However, I have many more time slots that are not listed. Because of this, I have the ability to do my best to meet your time constraints, to find times that work for both of us.

I am licensed in Missouri and Idaho, with several years of professional counseling experience.

My skills and techniques for talk therapy, adapted through years of school counseling and my own practice, have formed to showcase compassion, humor and the desire to help others in self-discovery. It is a modern therapy approach that highlights the three aspects of our being: mind, body and soul. Understanding these, the relationships within our body and outside of our body are crucial to re-discovering our true, authentic self. It isn't easy work, but the commitment from both the client and myself, to approach hard times with an openness and willingness is fundamental. Talk therapy and goal-setting, with intention to understand our gut-feeling, but most importantly, trust it, is my approach at helping navigate life's tricky situations. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am eager to start this journey with you!
