Teletherapy for Boise, ID

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.

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.

Accepting New Clients. Start Before You're Ready. We all have self-doubt and reasons we do not feel ready for personal and interpersonal exploration, growth and change.

Life not going the way you want? Feeling overwhelmed, stuck, tired or anxious? Feeling the depth of what it is to be human? It's hard to feel these things and you're not alone. Being human can be difficult & messy & our brains have many natural tendencies that can unintentionally contribute to our suffering, our culture does too. Yet they also have the potential to change & to help us move towards the lives we most want to live. Together we can learn how to connect to that power & work WITH the complex aspects of our humanity to create more space for joy & meaning, fun & ease - for ourselves and our world.

I am currently OUT of OFFICE until late MAY 2024. You often find yourself nauseous and wanting to cry when there is conflict in your life. You wish you could just hit pause on the world because it feels so overwhelming sometimes. You feel like people don’t understand you, or what you’re trying to say, and sometimes you don’t really understand yourself either. You notice feeling unheard or dismissed often. You want to have better relationships, less conflict, set boundaries, and understand yourself or your actions. You want stability and steadiness in a life or in relationships that feel rocky or confusing.

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 impact of ADHD. 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.

1 weekly spot April - You are FRIED. Fueled on little but persistence and caffeine you keep pushing yourself forward. Yet, there’s a voice inside saying "I can’t keep doing this." You’re convinced it must be something about you – you aren’t good enough. What really sucks is you’re smart – like really smart, so it seems logical that you should be able to figure this out on your own. But you can’t think your way out of this. The positive affirmations feel like toxic positivity. Validation, empathy, and commiserating only get you so far. And some people still don't even get it. You need something more.

Hello! I am so glad you are here! Seeking support for the struggles you are going through takes a ton of courage, and I would love to be able to help you in this process. I specialize in assisting adults, couples, and children as they begin to address the challenges they are experiencing in their lives. Through the counseling process, we will address these life concerns by exploring and expanding upon your unique identity and story, as well as the relationships with yourself and key others in your life. My goal is to work with you to develop powerful relational resources to support you even after counseling has ended.

I work with those who feel disconnected from themselves and the world around them. Stress, trauma, or other difficulties can leave us feeling splintered and fragmented. We will welcome you back into your mind, body, and spirit.

When daily life stressors occur it is common to feel overwhelmed. My greatest passion in life is to assist in the healing needed for those that have been through any form of hardship, reuniting that person with their thriving selves. I help my clients to find those healthy perceptions of who they are and resolve relationship conflicts within marriages, couples, and friends. Aiding a client while they connect with that sense of inner peace and purpose in life can lead to a more fulfilling future. I am an advanced graduate student, pursuing my LPC counseling license, and I am located at The Counseling Center at Tree City in Boise.

Therapy should be something we grow to look forward to- the connection, the insight, the growth, and the support. At its core, it is a relationship in which you feel safe, cared for, seen, and validated. From there, I believe you can tackle whatever it is you show up for! It inspires me that growth and change continue through the entire life cycle, to our final days. I enjoy walking alongside clients struggling with the aging process, their relationships, their boundaries and self worth, and tender childhood wounds. I operate from an attachment oriented and interpersonal neurobiological approach.

Perhaps all the things you were doing before to keep your emotions in check, make your partner happy, or ignore your past are no longer working. Maybe you’ve read the self-help books and listened to scores of podcasts, but you cannot seem to escape your personal hell. If you're a man, maybe you're at a crossroads with what it means to be manly. If you're going through faith deconstruction, perhaps you feel sad and angry, but nobody within or outside the church seems to understand. Or maybe your relationship is close to failure and you are at a loss how to save it. But now you find yourself here, ready to do something different.

I specialize in supporting individuals who have experienced a variety of trauma, are navigating grief, facing significant life transitions, or dealing with infertility - issues that often hijack our true identity in order to cope. It takes courage to seek support and embark on a journey of re-discovering your authentic self. My therapeutic approach is grounded in the belief that each person already possesses unique strengths and inner resources that can be harnessed to facilitate the healing process. My practice is culturally sensitive and inclusive to ensure clients feel heard, validated & supported.

Sometimes life gets hard, and you just need a little extra support! I love working with individuals aged 14 and up who are interested in challenging themselves to increase self-awareness and acceptance to cultivate a healthier whole self.

With compassion and support, we will untether you from beliefs and negative records that have caused pain. You can be your true self, free. When we suffer from anxiety, depression, or feel stuck and not "motivated" or just can't "get it together," this isn't us broken or defective, it's our brain doing it's job, keeping us alive. It's coped in a way that is maladaptive. Luckily, we have resilient brains and neuro-plasticity. Therapy is an opportunity to reprocess and "change our brain." You have within you the ability to shift threat to thrive. With our aligned intentions, you'll access adaptive thinking and behavior.
