Drug Abuse Therapists in 83713

My name is Matt and I love helping people change. I see my role as a therapist to be a partner walking along side you, assisting you towards the path you wish to take. In each session I will listen with great purpose and without judgment to understand all that you are. I have experienced many milestones, changed careers, and through my background in athletics and schooling have acquired skills to tackle different situations.

Hi I am Andy and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker currently accepting new adult, adolescent, and child clients. I have over 6 years of professional experience working with individuals struggling with substance use, various mental health challenges, and family conflict. Specifically, I am highly specialized in the fields of addiction, divorce, family conflict, and treatment of anxiety and/or depression. As your therapist, my goal is to provide equal parts compassion and empathy while encouraging growth and change. Lastly, I am able draw from and offer my own life experiences with growth and change when helpful.

I enjoy connecting with those who are faced with the adversity of depression, anxiety, and PTSD. It is my passion to meet people where they are through understanding and a nonjudgemental working relationship. I will help you navigate your healing process. I provide both telehealth and in person services at The Counseling Center at Tree City in Boise, ID. I have provided therapy and counseling since 1997. I have experience working as an alcohol and drug counselor and clinical supervisor at correctional facilities as well as outpatient alcohol and drug counseling, case management, and mental health therapy.

I enjoy working with clients of all ages, genders, orientations, and backgrounds as they navigate through the challenges of life. I believe that everyone's story is unique and that it needs to be told in a comfortable and safe place, free of judgement. Many of the clients I work with come to therapy feeling stuck, overwhelmed, vulnerable, afraid of making changes, and/or wondering how they will make it through the unexpected changes they are faced with. Some have experienced trauma. I help clients understand why they are suffering from certain symptoms as well as help them identify maladaptive thinking and coping skills.

As a therapist who solely works with women, I am keenly aware of the unique needs that evolve during each phase of our lives. I realize that as we encounter our own personal ups and downs that our emotions, family, work/finances, relationships, activities, and goals often feel the effects as well. Truly being listened to by another person is precious and often uncommon. When it happens, we feel its power through understanding and respect. Once this takes place, amazing things happen...authentic communication, freedom from negative thoughts, healing, contentment, courage, and strategies for growth.

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.

Life can be beautiful, but it can also be difficult, stressful, and overwhelming. It can feel easy to lose sight of the person you want to be and reaching out for help when you are struggling is an act of courage. I find counseling an invitation to listen and provide support to what is going on in your heart, your mind, and your world. Together, we can reconnect you with what matters most in your life and help you find direction, meaning, and insight. Whatever you are experiencing or wherever you are in your life, we will work together towards healing. GO TEAM!

I utilize a straight-forward and honest approach to therapy and I am direct in identifying real-life solutions to the presenting issues. I am an experienced counselor and I am often able to connect with and form positive relationships with those who are resistant to counseling or skeptical of the counseling process. I have found humor to be quite productive in treatment and will implement it often. I have experience in treating issues such as (but not limited to): depression, anxiety, PTSD/trauma, ADHD, Schizophrenia, Bipolar Disorder, anger issues, parenting concerns, and marriage/couples issues.

I am a compassionate and dedicated addiction counselor with over a decade of experience working with those who struggle with substance use. With a deep understanding of the complexities of addiction and a commitment to client-centered care, I provide counseling services aimed at supporting individuals in their journey towards recovery.
