Domestic Abuse Therapists in Boise, ID

Everyone goes through rough times and taking the step to come to counseling is huge!. Making sure that you are comfortable and have the right fit is important. I am a licensed clinical professional counselor specializing in the areas of addiction, grief/trauma, anxiety, depression, and couples. I have worked with a variety of individuals and couples addressing many areas. I believe that I must cater to you, to help you get where you want to be. I am a certified EMDR therapist, and find this a helpful tool for all types of concerns. I look forward to helping you through your journey.

No one feels shame when they need an “adjustment” at the chiropractor and I see counseling that way—an adjustment in our thinking/functioning that we all need from time to time. Finding the right therapist is important and most of the power of therapy happens when you feel understood, validated, and appreciated. I have a warm and loving personality and I use a direct style to get to the heart of the problem. I am a wife, mother, and grandmother with a lifetime of good and bad experiences that allow me to empathize with a wide variety of people and challenges.

Whether you are experiencing depression, anxiety, panic, or failed relationships, I am here to help you. I am dedicated to helping you discover who you are meant to be and to live your best life. I am passionate about helping you realize your intrinsic value and worth. If you are confused and find yourself in relationships that do not seem to be working, I would love to help. I am passionate about helping individuals understand how behaviors and patterns of thought may be keeping them stuck.

It takes courage to seek help and I admire those who do. Although I have worked with people with various issues through the years; trauma, grief, estrangement, anxiety and mood-related issues are primary interests. I enjoy working with teens, adults, and couples. Although I am trained in several approaches, I don't believe in a "one size fits all" approach to therapy. As a trained CCTP (Certified Clinical Trauma Professional), many of the skills I have gained through training apply to people with various life difficulties and challenges.

You might be coming to me for help in resolving difficult issues such as depression, grief, anxiety, trauma, or symptoms of PTSD. Or, perhaps you want to work through life transitions or career issues, or to increase self-compassion, inner strengths, and an overall sense of well-being. Whatever your concern, you are not alone. Therapy is about cultivating a safe, non-judgmental relationship where we can work together to clarify and achieve your goals.

Leading with a strength based perspective, I develop a safe environment to build trust. As a clinician I utilize Motivational Interviewing to empower my clients and to gain clarity into possible solutions. I am passionate about human rights and advocate for the dignity and worth of all people. My mission is to provide high quality service with a focus on reducing symptoms and promoting overall well being.

NOT currently accepting new clients. For as long as I can remember I have had a passion for helping people, and I feel privileged to provide assistance to people through counseling.

My areas of interest include trauma, PTSD, LGBTQ+, and abuse. I have had training in EMDR. I currently work with individual adults and couples.

Everyone has struggles. It's part of being human. I see myself as a catalyst in the process towards change.

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.

A psychiatrist with whom I work has described my therapeutic style as "artistic". Mine is not a sing-songy, head weaving, "how does that make you feel?" therapeutic approach. Rather, I respect the fact that my patients are presenting problems that necessitated their appointment. Problems have solutions. This is important work. I believe therapy should be an active process. My sessions are almost always active and highly engaging. This is the work of solution discovery. I believe people have their own answers. These answers reside within them. We actively and collaboratively seek these answers. Arthur Hamblin, Psy.D.

I am best with clients ready to look into the painful parts of themselves and their pasts. This allows them to understand and embrace those parts with the help of a "fellow traveler". I seek a place of equality and compassion and I walk with my clients through the darkness.

I specialize in trauma and post-traumatic stress. In my practice, I create a safe environment to explore past wounds, process current obstacles and find meaning and purpose for the future. I believe, based on a comprehensive review of applicable research and witnessing transformation in my clients, trauma can be healed. Acquiring the tools necessary to respond to stressful situations, strengthening the core of who we are and what we hope to become, creates our own resiliency; our tenacity for living. Resiliency can be learned. We have the capacity to heal from trauma. I am currently running a waitlist for new clients.

I offer a complimentary 15-minute consultation prior to any therapy intake. This consultation provides an opportunity to discuss your therapeutic goals, explore my approach to therapy, review costs, schedule your initial intake and address any questions you may have. This ensures we start our journey with clarity and mutual understanding.

In my therapeutic work, I draw upon empathetic engagement and evidence-based methods, including Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), to facilitate healing. Guided by the principles of Internal Family Systems (IFS) and somatic awareness, I strive to provide a nurturing environment where you can safely navigate and integrate the many facets of your self-experience. My goal is to help you heal from past traumas and support you in defining and achieving a balanced and fulfilling life.
