Spirituality Therapists in Boise, ID

Currently pursuing a Ph.D. in Integral & Transpersonal Psychology, which focuses on enhancing the needs of the mind, body and soul by integrating Eastern and Western philosophies of mental and emotional health. I really enjoy working with people with diverse backgrounds and life stories. I have much experience working with those who struggle with PTSD, grief and loss, depression, anxiety-based disorders, spiritual distress or confusion, LGBTQ+ community, and more.

I really admire people who come in for counseling. My goal is to help you build on that courage to find your own unique solutions. A lot of the pain we feel as people has to do with the state of our relationships. That's why I specialize in working with couples using Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT). This well-researched model helps couples get free of repetitive negative patterns that hurt, and replace them with skills for building a deeply satisfying, trusting connection. I have used EFT to help many couples repair deeply damaged relationships and go on to thrive together.

I believe therapy can enhance life and its challenges at any stage – as a counselor it’s my job to assist you in learning and implementing new ways of coping to become your best self. I believe in treating the whole person to achieve balance, serenity & healing in an environment of trust and non-judgement. I believe we can get ‘stuck’ in our problems and feel there is no solution, but we all possess the strength to make changes in our lives. Sometimes we need a nurturing & knowledgeable counselor to assist us in unlocking that full potential.

Currently accepting new clients. I love helping people heal and align with their better self... their "real self" that has been hidden away. I do this through connection, healing, and seeing you as being whole through holistic, modern, and traditional approaches. I come from the Rosebud Lakota people in South Dakota and have lived here in Boise since 1993. Drawing upon my traditional insight and background that is centered on human balance, harmony, and inner peace by way of connecting the circle of past, present, and future. It's all connected... we are connected! Contact me for a free 15 min. consultation.

I am currently working on developing my private practice at Safehaven Counseling Center where we take an integrated holistic approach to emotional, physical, and spiritual health. As you make your way through life, I am here to provide a compassionate, warm, non-judgmental space for you to better understand yourself and the journey that God has set before you. You may be experiencing difficulty in a relationship or suffering from depression or anxiety. You may be trying to make sense of past trauma or abuse. Whatever your situation, I am committed to walking alongside you as you work through difficult issues towards healing.

The journey to knowing yourself can seem daunting, but taking the first step is both courageous and worthwhile. As a counselor, I believe that every person on this journey can benefit from some help and support along the way. I practice from a person-centered viewpoint and really believe that each of us is capable of making the choices we need to achieve the life we want. With a solution focused, strengths based approach, I seek to use past and present circumstances to carve a path forward that will result in greater self-awareness, self-acceptance, and overall wellbeing.

Currently accepting new clients - Welcome! I am a licensed professional counselor (LPC) as well as a nationally certified counselor (NCC) in the state of Idaho. I am passionate about holistically partnering with clients on their journey towards growth and healing in a way that respects the whole person. My style is warm and genuine as I work with individuals to process through past traumas, navigate current challenges, identify and set healthy boundaries, replace negative belief systems, heal ostracized parts of themselves, and find new ways to better manage their mental health.

I am currently offering pro bono counseling starting the week of August 21! You might be feeling like your past wounds or current hardships have taken away your joy. You might feel stuck in a loop that feels difficult to cope with. Or you might be in a season where you know deep down you will eventually move through it but you don't want to do it alone. There is power in inviting an outside, trusted professional into your story in order to process your thoughts and emotions. It is one of the greatest honors of my life to join others in their journey.

Life and relationships can be challenging, and sometimes we need help along our journey. As a therapist, I offer emotional support, and provide encouragement as clients pursue their emotional, physical, and mental health goals. I take great care in providing a safe space as clients process difficult emotions and work on healing from painful experiences. I help clients identify and develop their strengths, improve the quality of their relationships, and discover deeper meaning and purpose in life. I view counseling as a collaborative process, and I tailor my approach to complement each person’s unique needs and circumstances.

I have worked extensively for the past ten years with individuals who have various mental health diagnosis. I enjoy working with families/couples in finding a resolve to the struggles we face daily as well as with children who are living with unresolved past traumas. I love working with children utilizing play therapy techniques and watch them begin their healing process. I offer EMDR for treating past traumas, anxiety and depression both with children and adults.

I support female identifying and non binary clients who are wanting to navigate: Religious Trauma & Deconstruction. Healing from Purity Culture. Sex and Body Positivity. Anxiety. ADHD and Autism in women.

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.

Your most natural resource is in yourself. My clinical work as a Jungian oriented depth psychotherapist is characterized by a deep respect for the unfolding of your individual life process, knowing that life experience is in constant change, complex and fluid. A depth psychotherapist collaborates with the client by working together with their wounded, rejected, neglected, abandoned, painful, emotional & fragmented parts. We build a therapeutic rapport with a trust in the process. Personal dreams and symptoms are used as healing agents.

Hello and Welcome! I’m honored you stopped by and considering me to go on this next journey of personal healing. I work with individuals, ages 13+ while utilizing different techniques that help clients address personal concerns and heal through their trauma. Concerns can be daily stressors and demands of family life, while others can stem from deeper wounds of generational trauma that leave you feeling stuck. Patiently and compassionately, together we’ll navigate those core wounds and negative thought patterns.

Stepping into counseling with you is a privilege. As a licensed professional counselor, I find counseling to be an invitation to listen and empathize to what is going on in your heart, your head, and your world. When these don’t align, there is an incongruence that rattles our inner world. My desire is to assist adults, adolescents and children 6 and older, to find peace. I enjoy all ages because of my work with children & adults for 15 years. I served 10 years as a Children’s Pastor, and I continue to believe that every age is important. Therefore, I chose to pursue counseling to help every individual pursue healthy mental health.
