2 therapists in Idaho matching your needs

I operate from the stance that people were not intended to suffer alone. Often, burdens that appear too heavy or too great to move beneath feel that way because the individual does not have adequate resources and skills to process the situations or experiences. As a therapist, I have been blessed to stand alongside many individuals as they planted their feet back on the ground and learned to skills necessary to alter their view of self or to shift so that they became bigger than their pain. I have worked in both in-patient and private practice settings over the course of the last eight years. I have experience working with trauma, eating disorders, addiction, process addictions, families, parenting concerns, ADHD, depression, anxiety, and personality disorders. I am capable of engaging in Christian therapy if desired by the client. Overall, my goal as a therapist is to work beside the client as they learn to meet their goals, not to stand in front and pull them along or stand behind and push them. If we need to stand still and sort through some obstacles before moving forward, then that is part of the process and time well spent.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 20 years experience in community based mental health. I am based in California but also licensed in Idaho. I provide culturally sensitive treatment to diverse client populations including teens, adults, and older adults. My experience is with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues, stress, loss, grief, perinatal depression and post-partum depression. I primarily work with youth, adults and older adults.
