I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and have been working primarily in schools for 20 years. As a counselor, I will integrate all I have learned to help clients cope with stress, depression, anxiety, trauma, and grief. It’s my belief that we can heal when we befriend our bodies and learn to make connections between our thinking mind, emotions, and physical self.

Hello and congrats for taking the first step to wellness! My vision is to help people find joy and become their full potential according to their unique core values. My purpose is to inspire positive change through empathy and compassion. My mission is to connect with those through shared experiences, and to empower through self-esteem building and finding your own voice. My ultimate core value is practicing empathy and healthy communication. Without it, there is isolation, which makes connecting to others virtually impossible. Connection is key to healthy mentality and spirituality.

Sometimes life becomes overwhelming. You feel stuck. You want a healthier, more satisfying life story. Reaching out for help takes courage (though you may not feel brave at the moment). My goal is to provide a comforting, accepting environment where you feel safe to share your stories, explore new perspectives on your narrative, discover helpful coping tools, and maximize your strengths. You are the expert in your life, and I have expertise in the counseling process. Together we can find clarity and direction in your story.

Accepting new clients...Take what the game gives you, my dad always said… that is the number one mantra and peace of advice that has resonated with me during the swells and swallows this ocean of life has to offer. And like all humble humans, I believe growth, learning, and love are the foundations for change. I believe if we take what the game of life gives us, and can cope and adapt at whatever is thrown our way, we will have made it to our highest and truest potential.

As humans, we tend to project our understanding of ourselves onto the rest of our environment. If we don’t understand why we behave the way we do or if we don't feel very great about ourselves, that can impact how we see the rest of the world and how we go about living in it. My goal in therapy is to help you better understand yourself and work towards a new way of navigating the world around you. Here's to positive wellness and finding renewed satisfaction in life!

In my experience working in community mental health and crisis work, I have discovered that being very honest and down to earth with clients facing tough challenges gets results. I have experience working with those that are suffering from mood disorders such as depression and anxiety as well as other mental health issues. I enjoy working with people and helping them see new perspectives and provide hope that things can get better. If you are facing difficult life situations,I can provide support with confidential, objective views and provide tools and a cognitive behavioral approach based on scientific evidence.

Do you often please others at the expense of yourself? Perhaps you keep repeating unhealthy relationship patterns - searching for proof of your worthiness in relationships outside of yourself. How loud is your inner critic? Are you hiding guilt and shame behind masks of happiness? Are you indecisive - valuing others' opinions over your own? Do you often feel overwhelmed? You are not alone. Many of my clients feel this way, and I can tell you that there is hope. There is another way to live. You are strong and resilient, even if it doesn't feel like it right now. This life can be amazing. I can help you remember how to heal yourself.

Currently accepting new clients. Difficult life experiences and obstacles can impact your ability to thrive - experiencing life as if you're going through the motions without purpose and direction. This can lead to feelings of anxiety, depression, or guilt. You may begin to experience a lack of motivation, feeling out of control, and you may want to avoid or numb the feelings altogether. You would like to feel differently, but you don't know where to begin. Together, we will work on reducing guilt and shame, increasing empowerment, and meeting your personal goals.

As a mental health counselor as well as an art therapist, I appreciate the benefits of verbal therapy as well as art therapy, and I use both approaches in my work according to clients' interests, needs, goals and expressive styles. During times when it is difficult to verbally express emotional states, experiences, and thoughts, creative art expression can provide another outlet for communication, self-exploration and problem-solving, especially when paired with therapeutic guidance and support. I use an integrative, creative and person-centered approach with clients of all ages to find the most useful and meaningful way to help.

How can I find a therapist in Boise?

Search for nearby therapists or counselors by inputting your city, town, or suburb; or zip code; or a provider’s name into the search bar. From there, you can filter providers by the issues they treat, cost, insurance, gender, and other factors to find providers who are well-suited to your needs. To navigate between locations within the same country, enter a new city or zip code into the search bar.

Learn more about how to find a therapist.

Is online therapy a good option?

Therapy conducted online can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your zip code.

What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?

Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In the US, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counselor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counselors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.

What type of therapist is right for me?

Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counselor who can offer short-term, targeted support.

Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?

The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors. Many have been licensed by the country or state where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counseling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.

What type of therapy is right for me?

The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.

Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?

Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
