Teletherapy for Boise, ID

I am accepting new clients! Do you or your child struggle with low self-esteem, self-doubt, depression, and anxiety? Perhaps you or your child may also struggle with impatience, short temper, or anger management issues. Do you feel like your feelings are discounted and rejected by others? Are there too many upsets in your own day or do others make your days more complicated? I can help you reduce depression, teach you coping skills to adjust to anxiety, depression, stress and low self esteem. I work with individuals and families and help develop better coping skills and ways to get along more productively.

Medical problems are treated including tension headache, migraine, chronic pain,irritable bowel syndrome, chrones disease, MS, Lupus, arthritis, fibromyalgia, stress and immune system insufficiency.

Treatment methods include a solution focused, brief therapy that include cognitive behavior therapy, rational hypnotherapy, bio-feedback and brief, gestalt therapy.

My primary passion & skill is in working with couples, women, & anxiety. Firstly, I can relate. I am a (military)wife of 11 years & a mother of 3 young children. I know personally the difficulties that come with this, as well as the working mother. I have also stayed at home with my children & I get that as well. I clearly remember being a college student & the unique challenges of that period of life. I have had my own journey with severe anxiety & God has helped me heal and grow from it. I am hope and future-focused, I'll help you walk towards the person you have always wanted to be & the full, abundant life God desires for you!

“THAT WHICH WE NEED THE MOST WILL BE FOUND WHERE WE LEAST WANT TO LOOK.” Carl Jung... Perhaps you are suffering with something that's been attached to you since childhood or you are battling a current problem in one of the many units of your life (financial, physical, spiritual, relational etc). Perhaps you're not sure what's wrong, but things just don't seem quite right, perhaps I can help.

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.

Hello and thank you for viewing my bio. There are many reasons to enlist a psychotherapist or counselor, including seeking a better understanding of yourself, following a path of self-discovery, looking for hope and support, or stepping more powerfully into yourself to live the life you wish to have. Since our relationships are so core to engaging our biggest selves, talking with a therapist can often help identify our personal patterns of relating in a way that may help us begin to enjoy more satisfying relationships.

Soul Sage is the practice of neuro-somatic healing, breath work, embodiment, psycho-therapy, shadow and narrative journaling, meditation, and building rituals of connection. Céleste leans into transformation to transcend the patterns of thought and behavior that perpetuate dissonance and the imposition of self-misidentification, self-doubt, compassion fatigue, and stress. Celeste works with you through self-discovery and by excavating the deepest parts of self that sustain connection and compassion.

I believe each client is the expert in their own life, and that my job as a counselor is to provide a safe environment to explore what isn't working and why. We, as humans, all want to be seen, heard, and validated. I work with you to create a space that helps you experience those things.

Do you struggle connecting to your body, trusting your intuition? Do you feel "stuck" in old patterns and can't quite see how to break free from them? So many individuals right now are struggling to find their authentic power, and live a life that is supportive of their dreams. Our work together will invite you deeper into the present moment, and meet life from a grounded and embodied perspective. Together, we discover the old stories of the unconscious mind and transform them through the body to a new story of who you truly are, beyond all the ego identities and labels.

I specialize in working with millennial professionals who look like they have their shit together, but in reality are overwhelmed by their anxiety and the weight of feeling like a "failure." Together we can help you dial down the anxiety and stress. While we're at it, we can ditch the perfectionism and people pleasing, because your wants and needs are valid. We can even help you learn to accept yourself for who you are, instead of judging yourself based on your productivity.

You are searching for something. And yet, no matter how many books you have read, quizzes you have taken, or experiences you have tried...you have yet to find it. This feeling within is powerful, pushing us to launch into space, dive into mysterious ocean depths, and lose ourselves across the four corners of this earth. The possibilities for this undefined exploration are endless. And yet, we find no relief. This is because what you are searching for is...you. The observer. It is not what you are observing, but whom is observing. You are what you are searching for. You are the last frontier with depths unknown. Discover you.

I routinely help people from a variety of ages, backgrounds, and health conditions learn to manage insomnia and related sleep disorders. If you are concerned about your sleep or interested in reducing use of medications for sleep, there is a very good chance I will be able to help you! I am also a certified instructor in the Empowered Relief chronic pain management program as well as a certified practitioner in Pain Reprocessing Therapy. Using these approaches, I help patients learn to minimize the impact chronic pain has on their lives and improve their experience of chronic pain.

Your heart skipped a beat when your spouse said it - "I need you to go to therapy." It jolted you, yet it wasn't a surprise. You knew your existing strategies for managing your mental health were at their limit. Your mind is scattered and can't slow down. Your muscles are constantly tense and headaches are the new norm. You're exhausted, irritable, stressed-out and overwhelmed. Potential conflicts make you cringe. Every decision is overanalyzed from all angles. So of course, you aren't feeling very effective or efficient anymore either. You can't keep doing this. Most of all, you can't you lose your spouse.

Most of my clients identify as high achievers, type A, people pleasers, or perfectionists struggling with one or more relationships in their lives. Stress feels unmanageable and my clients might be tired of people walking on them or struggling to say no. I help clients identify unhealthy, manipulative or controlling behavior (which may include narcissistic patterns of emotional abuse). I teach clients skills to communicate more directly, identify red flags, set boundaries, build self-esteem, balance stress, and safety plan if/when you decide to leave the relationship(s). I offer support whether you choose to stay or leave.

I specialize in treating anyone who may be struggling with anxiety, trauma, or a mood disorder. Many of my clients are tired of feeling stressed, unheard, unseen, or overwhelmed. I am here to be a thinking partner with my clients and to express empathy. I emphasize being nonjudgmental in my practice and in advocating for my clients in any goals they may want to achieve. My goal in counseling is to help my clients achieve better mental health, and to find more peace.
