Family Therapy in Rexburg, ID

I recently moved to Rexburg and enjoy being in the outdoors, exploring new places and playing sports. I have been married for over 10 years and have 4 children. I love helping people learn and grow. I am a marriage and family therapist who works with couples, families, and individuals where addiction has disrupted their lives. I specialize in pornography addiction, sex addiction, and families with children who have special needs (Autism, ADHD, and Developmental delays).

I specialize in working with sexual addictions and relationships. I have been working therapeutically with individuals, couples, and families since 2005. My focus now is working with sexual addiction/pornography addiction and betrayal trauma of partners of addicts and I have been trained by the International Institute for Trauma and Addiction Professionals (IITAP) in advanced treatment of sexual addictions and betrayal trauma. My hope is to help individuals and couples heal from the pain that addiction and betrayal bring to people's lives. I also treat other sexual problems with couples and individuals.

I believe every person is worthy of achieving their maximum potential in relationships, work, and life overall. Life's challenges can often be opportunities for growth. Whether it's a stressful life transition, unresolved emotional trauma, or an overwhelming addiction, I can guide you through this process of change. My goal is to help you appreciate and develop your unique qualities and strengths, empowering you to utilize tools that will improve your life. I specialize in treating pornography and sexual addictions, trauma and shame. I facilitate groups for the LifeSTAR Network, a three-phase program for couples and individuals affected by pornography and sexual addiction.

I have a deep and convicted belief in the power of therapy. I have learned it is a privilege and beautiful honor to sit with clients and hear their story. Everyone's story is important and meaningful. I have learned the connection between therapist and client is essential and can be life altering to someone who may be, or may feel, alone. The need for connection is paramount in our human experience and sometimes it is lacking in our lives. I take this into account with every client, and I offer that connection to my clients. I strive to provide an affirmative, inclusive, and respectful environment to those in the LGBTQ+ community.

I prioritize creating a safe environment where challenges and emotions can be openly explored. In my work with couples, I operate from an emotion focused lens to help partners be accessible, responsive, and engaged with one another as they uncover the emotional underpinnings of their interactions. With individuals, I often use techniques from acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), internal family systems (IFS), and gestalt therapy.

I like clients that are unique, meaning I enjoy people's differences. I tend to create the treatment plan around the client and their needs rather than a cookie cutter type of treatment plan. I work with a wide range of clients from children and adolescents to couples therapy.

As a sex addiction specialist I work extensively with people who have trauma histories and attachment injuries. I welcome clients who are gender and sexually diverse, and adult and adolescent clients.

I have been a marriage and family therapist for over 25 years. I have worked with marriage and family issues as well as mental health issues throughout that time. I have been in private practice for over 15 years and thoroughly enjoy the work that I do and the clients that I work with.

Some of the most courageous people I know are those who are wanting to have a better life, better mental health, or better relationships and are willing to make the small incremental changes for the better. I enjoy helping people regain control over their lives and become the captains of themselves and their future. I can help you see who you really are and find your true identity and thus helping you see the great worth that has always been inside of you.

My ideal client is someone who values self-discovery and is committed to their healing journey.

With a collaborative spirit and a desire for positive change, they inspire hope and empower themselves to thrive.

With over four decades of marriage experience, I am deeply committed to aiding couples facing challenges. Relationship preservation is tough but rewarding work. My clients' journey has taught me that the effort pays off, witnessing couples leave sessions with smiles is priceless. Equally significant, I assist survivors of abuse and trauma. I admire their resilience in overcoming discouragement, self-doubt, anxiety, shame, and isolation. Healing involves listening to our bodies, trusting intuition, and assertiveness. When a survivor confidently establishes boundaries, they reclaim their true selves.
