Therapists in Idaho

As a clinical psychologist, I have extensive experience working with children, adolescents, families, and adults. Utilizing an eclectic approach, I work collaboratively to address the issues that have led my clients to seek help. I enjoy working with complex trauma, abuse, PTSD, adoption, attachment, general psychotherapy issues, stressful life events, relationship issues, bereavement, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, mood and anxiety issues, and most kid-related issues (ODD, adjustment issues, etc). I further have significant experience addressing gifted and talented related issues and am an EMDR-level II trained clinician.

My Ideal client is someone, child, adolescent, or adult, who is ready to make a change in their behaviors, thoughts, their life. This individual may be feeling anxious, or depressed, or tired of repeating the patterns that “get them into trouble”. This individual wants to learn how to manage their feelings or thoughts, process through their situations, while gaining skills to work through those situations, and learn to let things go. I find that the individuals (children and adults) ready for change “dive right into” my therapy toys/sand tray/art supplies so that they can begin processing their issues they way that they need to.

I work with clients of all ages and specialize in working with individuals who have been diagnosed with a life threatening or terminal disease, their families, and caregivers. In addition, I work with infertile couples and those pursuing fertility treatment and/or adoption, as well as women who have experienced miscarriage, stillbirth, or post abortion grief. Grief and loss are experienced at many stages of life and are often at the root of the issues presented in counseling, such as anxiety and/or depression. I also specialize in grief/loss counseling and work with a myriad of other symptoms as well.

My primary theoretical approach is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and animal assisted therapy. However I also utilize theories such as Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Adlerian Psychology, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, the use of books, Art Therapy, sand Tray Therapy, Play therapy and attachment therapy. I'm certified in Accelerated Resolution Therapy. Tandice has knowledge and experience working with children and families struggling with sibling and parent conflict issues. Anxiety disorders, depression disorders, PTSD, Bi-Polar, Domestic Violence, Relationship issues, self-esteem and identity issues are also areas of expertise.

I have many years of experience working with women, children and families through being a special needs preschool teacher, children's mental health treatment manager, adoption program coordinator, and public speaker. I received my master's degree in marriage and family therapy in 2009. Through my counseling practice I endeavor to help you establish a strong, healthy outlook on life whereby you can develop to your full potential. I am passionate about helping you and your family attain positive change.

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.

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.

With over 25 years experience working with adults, children, couples and families, I bring a variety of resources to help you grow through whatever challenges you are facing. My professional and life experience have prepared me to adjust to your individual style and I totally avoid the one-size-fits-all approach that most therapists use. I am so grateful to be a part of the growth process of so many wonderful clients. I would be honored to help you in whatever way I can.

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.

People say my style is different from other counselors. "He's not the kind of counselor who just sits back and says uh-huh every few minutes." I am not shy about giving feedback and responding to my clients. Counseling is a relationship and I strive to create an engaging and healing dialogue from the beginning. Whatever your issue is, if it's not getting better with what you have been doing so far, now is the time to seek assistance. Call me to discuss your concerns and we can decide if I am the right resource for you.

Are you looking for someone who can hold your pain, trauma, wishes, and dreams and work with you to synthesize all this into a rich and treasured outcome?

My clinical practice is based upon a client centered approach, which employs techniques and strategies to assist individuals with personal insight and problem resolution, to achieve healthy coping skills. I currently prefer to work with adults. I can provide services to anyone who wishes to pursue a greater sense of self worth and personal integrity.
