Alzheimer's Therapists in Kuna, ID

Living with a neurological condition can be frustrating and involve memory loss, trouble focusing, and sometimes contribute to depression and anxiety. I am here to help. As a board-certified Clinical Neuropsychologist, I provide comprehensive neuropsychological evaluations for a wide range of conditions, including dementia (e.g., Alzheimer's disease and atypical dementias), brain tumors, post-acute sequelae of COVID-19 (commonly known as "long haulers"), autoimmune conditions, and brain injuries. For additional support, I also provide focused, short-term psychotherapy to help patients adjust to their medical condition and thrive.

My mission is to empower my clients to set healthy boundaries, boost self-awareness and develop improved communication skills to effectively vocalize wants, needs and feelings allowing an enhanced ability to manage everyday life and cultivate more fulfilling relationships. Life experience, education and my professional background have ignited a passion and empathy for guiding my clients on how to come to terms with their past by fostering healing and growth. I aim to assist my clients with learning how to process life events so they can positively look to the future with confidence, finding meaning and purpose as life evolves.

Hello and welcome to Treasure Valley Counseling and Wellness! Opening your heart and soul to a stranger is intimidating, but it is the first step to healing your inner self. I'm Lisa Tovar- Licensed Clinical Social Worker specializing in treatment for mood disorders, grief and loss, depression and anxiety. I've worked in the mental health field and crisis intervention for over 14 years. I have worked in the hospital and medical clinic settings for ten years and genuinely love what I do. I am passionate about trauma informed care, suicide prevention, and making my clients feel safe and secure.

As an In-Home Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I understand that the storms of life can impact every one of us at one time or another. Whether you are 1 or 101, life transitions and difficult circumstances can leave you feeling anxious, depressed, scared, isolated, and powerless, robbing you of a hopeful future. Functioning under these circumstances can make it difficult to reach out for help. Whether you have a child who is struggling with major life changes, or you yourself are dealing with the loss of a loved one or another form of complex trauma, you do not need to go through these experiences alone.

I have been working in the mental health field for 16 years. People who want to focus on discovering their inner strengths and understanding how those attributes can help them overcome their current challenges will benefit greatly from my techniques. I use a strength- based team approach which simply means I see counseling as a partnership between the people I work with and myself. I believe life is a journey and together we can make the most out of yours.

I am an Attachment based therapist well versed with severe levels of trauma, anxiety and depression due to family systems, addiction, adoption or other struggles. I have over 20 years experience as a dancer and dance studio owner from which I draw upon for a creative, integrative approach in therapy and fresh approach to understanding my clients. I am also fortunate enough to work collaborately with another therapist and Psychiatric Nurse Practitioners to provide wraparound services for clients all in our beautiful office space. I believe in exploring all avenues and taking innovative approaches in therapy to aid the client in healing and personal growth.

The road to recovery can be overwhelming and not always clear. Our licensed professionals are here to help with competence and compassion on things like family conflicts, disturbed moods (such as anger, anxiety, panic, and depression) behavioral disturbances, stress, relationship conflicts, social problems, career issues, loss, grief, addiction, and trauma.

I am looking forward to meeting you and setting out together on a journey to discover you and your uniqueness. Together, we will work to help you maximize yourself and reach your innate potential and resolve your difficulties.

At Sage Creek Therapy we believe the relationship between the client and the therapist is the most important component of the counseling process. We do not believe in a "one size fits all" way of therapy. Everyone brings their own unique story and we work in a professional relationship with our clients to achieve the goals they set for themselves. We provide services for a variety of issues and concerns including anxiety, depression, addiction, abuse, co-dependency, infertility, relationship concerns, grief, and trauma.

Offering video sessions, phone sessions, and live chat sessions. I have had the honor and satisfaction of working with a wide range of people experiencing relationship and/or transitional issues, as well as more serious problems including mood and anxiety disorders, eating disorders, menopausal issues, pre and post bariatric surgery adjustment, trauma, OCD, grief and divorce recovery. Within the scope of general adult and child and adolescent counseling I offer individual psychotherapy, family sessions, couple's counseling, and some testing. I use Hope therapy and seek to build on people's strengths.ver

As a Clinical Psychologist, I am committed to empowering others to achieve freedom from fear, find hope, and embrace greater quality of life through evidence-based treatments (EBTs). Patients can expect 3 phases of treatment: 1) gain a full understanding of presenting concerns; 2) apply gold standard/EBTs in several environments; 3) patient stand as expert, generalizing their knowledge, while I sit as a consultant. I offer accurate diagnosing and treatment precision techniques with advanced modalities (e.g., bio/neurofeedback, virtual reality, etc.) and each client can expect a warm welcome from their first contact to the last.

I love the counseling that I do. For the last fifteen years I have been a witness to the courage, tenacity, and resiliency of my clients as they strive to improve their personal lives and relationships in their families. I am convinced that much of our life is determined by the lens that we choose to look through. I also believe counselors are most successful when they also have a healthy lifestyle and live the principles that they teach to their clients. I believe that when you meet me that you will find me to be grounded, healthy, and authentic.

I enjoy working with individuals who are open and ready to work for what they need. They may need assistance coping with daily stress or transitioning to a different stage of life. My hope is that we can work together to establish achievable goals and identify strategies that will be effective for you as an individual.

Life is unpredictable. Often events happen out of our control. We find ourselves reacting with emotions that are overwhelming and sometimes debilitating. I cannot change what has happened in your life or what losses you’ve had to go through. I can walk alongside of you, create a safe place for you to process events or relationships that are causing stress, and help define your goals and values to reach solutions. I know you are not alone, and I want you to know it also. I can help you find hope when hope may seem far out of reach.

Have you experienced the loss of a loved one and need to talk to someone who understands grief? I am Certified in Thanatology: Death, Dying, and Bereavement through the Association for Death Education and Counseling, and specialize in grieving, bereavement, and the dying process. I have experience with bereaved parents and spouses, as well as survivors of suicide and homicide. I am certified in Trauma-Focused Therapy, and have helped many individuals overcome PTSD and other types of psychological trauma. I have specialized training and experience with issues related to aging, chronic and terminal illness, and end of life issues.

I am currently taking new clients! It takes amazing strength and courage to share our insecurities, worries and pain. As a compassionate therapist, my goal is to provide a safe and trusting space where you can feel better and get relief. Finding the right therapist can feel overwhelming, I provide a free 15 minute consult to help make the process less overwhelming and to explore if working together is the right fit for you. I provide therapy for individuals, couples and families.

My passion as an LPC and post-graduate trained Certified Disability Rehabilitation Counselor (CRC) is to help clients navigate the complex systems and unique barriers they face, using my extensive experience in the legal, employment, medical disability, and behavioral health fields. My clients describe me as warm, engaging, and educational.

I'm a PhD level registered/board-certified art therapist (AT). Along with AT, I use Photo Therapy, play, sand tray, bilateral & sensory techniques. Words alone aren't enough to express what is felt. We have emotion, body & mind memories when individuals are faced with the complex issues of grief, violence, abuse, neglect or coping with a disability. That is why AT needs to become an integral part of the treatment. Art therapy gives you a voice to express a wide range of emotions/experiences & helps you work through conflicts & traumas. (Any age or issues. NO ART SKILLS NEEDED. )

To me, therapy is a collaborative process and I aim to meet my clients wherever they are on their journey to health. Whether a problem is long-standing and complex, or more recent and straightforward, I want to learn about how they view themselves, others, and the world. We can then identify what does or does not work in their lives and expand upon those areas to create desired change. I am able to assist with a wide range of issues including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, trauma, and grief/loss, among others. I welcome all genders and enjoy working with ages 14 through seniors.
