I am a Senior Mediator of Academy of Family Mediators, an Active member of Idaho Mediators Assn, an Active member of Idaho Mental Health Counselors Assn.
My philosophy is rooted in 3 pillars of commitment: first is truth, I seek to be a kind and insightful counselor. as such my interactions with clients are candid and honest, it is a core belief that we all need to hear the truth about our actions, our feelings and what we need to do to overcome the issues facing the client. This is reinforced through an experiential element in which the client is given exercises and homework assignments. The second, compassion. The third pillar is taken from the Greek philosophy of a "healthy mind and a healthy body" approach to mental wellness.

Therapy can help anyone. We all have seasons where we feel stuck, and a safe professional can offer you paths of growth and healing that may not seem obvious given the circumstances. I believe everyone has the capacity to make changes in their life for the better. Some common needs that are addressed in counseling include: improving emotional regulation, alleviating symptoms of anger, depression, trauma, and anxiety. Importantly, counseling can offer a space for improving relationships, developing healthy family boundaries, and rebuilding the ability to trust. If you feel like you are on a hamster wheel, you are in the right place!

In my 40 plus years as a mental health care provider, I have found that regardless of how skilled a clinician I may be, I am only effective when I have successfully developed a working relationship with my clients. This relationship is key to addressing issues, providing encouragement, and enhancing the client's personal motivation. To make the necessary changes in thinking, beliefs and behavior, I work together with my clients to bring about about their desired goals. My areas of focus are anxiety and depressive disorders, treatment of trauma, and marital and family issues.

If I am not in the office you may find me with my family exploring the trails above Boise on my mountain bike, rafting, back packing, rock climbing, or pedaling the miles away on my road bike.
Wind Rivers Counseling: I love the psychotherapy work that I do. For the last twenty-seven years I have been a witness to the courage, tenacity, and creativity of my clients as they strive to improve their personal lives and relationships in their families. I am convinced that "the whole is greater than the sum of it's parts" and thus pay keen attention to how a persons body, mind, and social systems play a role in creating challenges and solutions in life. I also believe psychotherapists are most successful when they demand the same changes in themselves that they encourage in those they provide therapy for.

I am an Internal Family Systems-informed therapist, and it is the method I use to explore trauma.
I specialize in working with trauma. While I have a particular focus on working with issues around sex, sexuality and gender, and religious trauma, I work with trauma of all kinds. I believe that our behaviors, thoughts, physical sensations, worldviews, and ways of being are parts of us that all have stories, waiting to be heard and explored if they are given the opportunity. Giving these parts of us care and attention builds our emotional intelligence, essential to improving not only our lives, but also the lives of those around us in our close relationships and communities.

Family Therapy
What do family therapists do?
A family therapist facilitates the process of understanding and improving how a family functions. The therapist will help family members develop empathy for one another. They’ll seek to understand existing patterns, misunderstandings, and conflicts that arise, in order to help the family arrive at a realistic, unified understanding and develop the coping skills they need to build stronger relationships.
How long does therapy for families take to work?
Therapy manifests differently in every family; a common time frame is 12 weekly sessions, but some families may see improvement after just a few weeks. Families should discuss their goals with the therapist at the beginning of the process and periodically revisit those goals to assess their progress together.
How can you encourage a family member to attend family therapy?
You can encourage family members to attend therapy by expressing with both love and concern the challenges you see and explaining how a therapist could help the family navigate those challenges together. An outside perspective can help everyone feel heard, get on the same page, and develop new skills. If family members are still hesitant, it may be helpful to emphasize that family therapy is short-term—it won’t last forever.
Is therapy for families effective?
Family therapy can significantly improve family dynamics and relationships. Research suggests that family therapy can help individuals understand their role in the family, communicate and solve problems together, reduce conflict and draw boundaries when necessary, and develop coping skills for stressors, major life changes, and mental or physical illnesses within the family.
