Jennifer Fishman
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LCPC) in Idaho, as well as Nationally Certified Counselor, and I also hold the Graduate Certificate in Addiction Studies. I have been a counselor for 12 years in different settings, such as community agencies of different kind, as well as my own practice. Prior to becoming a counselor, I was an adult educator and worked for colleges and business schools. As an educator, I was passionate about motivating each student to find an individual “life’s path” and to use education as a tool. As a counselor, I am passionate about my clients learning about themselves through the discovery of individual strengths and unique abilities to take on the life’s journey. In each session, I strive to encourage my clients to find something about themselves they haven’t noticed before. Depending on my clients’ needs, I use many techniques, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, Solution Focused and many others, but educate on these techniques in the process to help my clients “become their own counselors” and build their own “arsenal” of tools. My counseling style is fluid – I meet my clients “where they are”; at the same time, I have been told by my clients that each session with me gave them different perspective and empowered them to approach life’s problems with unexpected solutions! I am looking forward to meeting and getting to know you!

(Alicia) "Kelli" Hall
Hello! I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) in Florida, North Carolina, and Pennsylvania and a life coach specializing in confidence. I have 13 years of counseling experience and 5 years as a coach. You need a holistic/integrative approach for support that attends to your mind, body, and spirit as all three elements are crucial for total well-being. You need a safe, non-judgmental environment with a client-centered, curated approach and customized strategies to assist you in meeting treatment goals and transforming your life. I offer the safety and solutions that allow us to identify solutions and resources for practical application to empower YOU through the changes and outcomes you want to make – YOU are your best expert. I will guide you to the inner wisdom already available and provide the tools for getting there. We will collaborate on this journey together. I have extensive knowledge working with children and families, special needs, and behavioral therapy. That foundation has enabled me to gain skills which translate to being effective with almost every person. Afterall, we were all once children and many of those early childhood wounds are still very prevalent in our adult lives! And, it's the four-year-old in you that hijacks your life and makes you feel like you're riddled with anxiety, emotionally unstable (triggers, anyone?), stuck in a loop of self-defeating and self-sabotaging thoughts and behaviors - unable to move forward in life with confidence and competence. In my spare time, I love to spend time in nature and do anything involving music. Namaste! I look forward to taking this journey of healing and growth with you. You deserve to have the life you envision!

Erin Nibley
Are you looking for some peace? My practice focuses on creating a safe place for you to begin or continue your process of healing. I have had several years of experience working with people who have issues with mental illness, substance abuse, and complex trauma. I use an eclectic approach that is client centered, and enjoy using EMDR, Gestalt, and existential modalities. I will provide a compassionate, validating and honest approach to addressing what is holding you back from experiencing peace in your life, and look forward to discovering how we can work together to find it. EMDR is a psychotherapy that assists people to heal from the symptoms and emotional distress that are the result of traumatic life experiences. EMDR removes stored blockages that have kept you "stuck" and reactive. My commitment is to allow you the freedom to express your feelings in a safe space of honesty, non-judgement, and compassion.
