I enjoy working with individuals seeking support with with substance use problems, identity exploration, and trauma and resiliency work. I also like to help people with mood and anxiety regulation. You may have noticed these challenges are impacting your relationships or how you feel about yourself. Or maybe it is impacting goals that you are ready to finally achieve. Are you feeling a pull to engage in counseling again or try therapy for the first time? Are you ready to build skills and confidence to move your life and relationships in the direction that you feel is right for you?

Cognitive-behavioral therapy has been found especially helpful in treatment of depression, anxiety, OCD, and addiction.
l I've found people do the best they can with what they've got. Coming to therapy takes courage to find a new way of being. While figuring out what is working well, and where adjustments are needed, we will have fun, too. Rather than simply listening to you, or asking about your feelings, I tend toward questions about thoughts and actions. It's okay if you don't know yet what needs to change. We will make plans together to meet goals we set in the first few sessions. These will focus on changing thoughts and behaviors that aren't helpful or effective.

I have treated a wide range of problems; including, treated for depression, anxiety, addiction, grief/loss, and trauma.
Presession Change is change that takes place when you reach out for help and before initiation of counseling. As licensed counselor in the state of Idaho for nearly 25 years, I am a competent clinician able to assist you with facing life's challenges. I integrate faith and spirituality into treatment; yet, from a non-judgmental manner. I also encourage a "client-driven" approach, while eventually "working myself" out of the job of your counselor. I am a Veteran of the US Air Force, retiring in September of 1994. I have treated clients from the age of 3 to 97. I look forward to assisting you as your aid and guide.

Clients who have previously completed substance abuse treatment often times find themselves feeling depressed, shameful, anxious, resentful, empty, or restless.

I utilize EMDR in my practice and specialize in treating PTSD. My professional mission is to empower clients toward a journey of emotional healing and change.

My ideal client is seeking positive change. They may face trauma, depression, addiction, or anxiety, but they’re not defined by these. They’re brave individuals seeking support who need a safe space to express themselves, empathy, understanding, and professional guidance. Their goals are unique. Some aim to manage symptoms better, or seek to understand their feelings’ root cause. Some want to improve relationships, others aim to build better coping mechanisms. They seek a fulfilling, balanced life, free from past chains, in control of their present and future. They seek happiness and new ways to tap into their resilience.

Addiction Therapists
What is the best therapy for addiction?
Addiction treatment will be tailored to the individual. People seeking help for addiction—whether with a psychotherapist, in an outpatient clinic, or in a residential program—should expect to engage in multiple types of treatments, sometimes including medication. For anyone recovering from addiction, avoiding situations in which one has typically used a substance is essential, as is the support of close connections. Since substance use disorders tend to co-occur with underlying mental health conditions such as anxiety or depression, those must also be addressed as part of any recovery plan.
How long does therapy for addiction take?
There is no set timeline for recovery from addiction. Patients and their families should expect the work to last several months, if not longer. Residential treatment programs may be based on a stay of 30, 60, or 90 days, with continuing work after release, but only about 1 percent of people are treated in such facilities. Ceasing use is just the first step; therapy to help maintain abstinence and effect behavior change must follow. The process of recovery, neuroscience has shown, involves brain cells recovering the capacity to respond to natural sources of reward and restore control over the impulse to use. Another definition of recovery is restoring voluntary control over one’s substance use and retaking all of one’s previous responsibilities.
How effective is drug addiction treatment?
Substance use disorders are treatable and remission is achievable for many who seek recovery; by some estimates, more than three-quarters of people who become addicted to alcohol or drugs recover. But that success rarely occurs quickly or on a set timeline; relapse is not only common, but many therapists and clinicians view it as a normal part of the process—not always a sign that a person has returned to addiction, but a signal that their treatment should be adjusted to help them regain control. Overall, research suggests, five years after the end of substance use, one’s risk of relapse is no greater than that of others who had not faced addiction. Other experts believe that complete abstinence is not the only measure of recovery, and that, through effective treatment, many people can learn to control their use.
How can you get addiction treatment for someone?
The most important factor in recovery from addiction is widely understood to be an individual’s commitment to change. For that reason,“interventions” in which friends and family gather to urge or force someone to begin immediate treatment often backfire; even when such efforts do lead someone to begin treatment, they may be less likely to stay than those who are self-driven. Still, family members can play an important role in supporting an individual who seeks help and can take part in family therapy as one element of a loved one’s treatment.
