Trauma isn’t defined only by what happened to you. It’s also about how your
mind and body adapted to survive it.
You may feel constantly on edge, emotionally numb, overwhelmed, disconnected from yourself, or trapped in patterns that no longer serve you. Even when life appears “fine” on the outside, your nervous system may still be carrying the weight of experiences
that never had the opportunity to heal.
Trauma can result from a single overwhelming event such as an accident, abuse, violence, or a significant loss. It can also develop through ongoing experiences like childhood emotional neglect, chronic stress, difficult relationships, or growing up in an environment where you didn’t feel emotionally or physically safe.
Whatever your story, your experiences matter, and your response makes sense.
Healing doesn’t mean forgetting what happened. It means reducing the grip those experiences have on your present life so you can respond with greater freedom,
confidence, and connection.
As a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor and EMDR therapist, I provide trauma-informed therapy for adults throughout Idaho using EMDR, mindfulness, CBT, DBT, and nervous system regulation strategies.
Together, we’ll move at a pace that feels safe, helping you process painful experiences, develop practical coping skills,
and reconnect with the parts of yourself
that trauma may have overshadowed.
You don’t have to continue living in survival mode. Healing is possible, and you don’t
have to navigate it alone.

Very few people begin using alcohol or drugs expecting them to become a problem.
Substances often start as a way to cope with stress, quiet emotional pain, numb difficult memories, manage anxiety, or simply have fun.
For a while, they seem to help. But over time, what once felt like a solution can begin creating consequences that affect your relationships, health, work,
and sense of self.
If you’re struggling with substance use,
you’re not weak or broken.
Addiction is complex, and recovery begins
with understanding, not judgment.
Whether you’re questioning your relationship with alcohol or drugs, working toward sobriety, navigating recovery, or wanting to understand the underlying emotional patterns that contribute to substance use, therapy can provide a safe place to explore lasting change.
My approach is trauma-informed and grounded in curiosity, compassion, and accountability. Together, we’ll explore the role substances have played in your life, strengthen healthy coping skills, address underlying trauma or emotional pain when appropriate, and help you build a life that no longer depends on substances to get through the day.
Recovery isn’t about becoming someone different. It’s about reconnecting with the person you were before
survival strategies began running the show.
You don’t have to do this alone.
Healing is possible.

your recovery journey
Feeling overwhelmed, exhausted,
or like you’ve lost yourself?
Anxiety and depression can affect every part of your life, making it difficult to enjoy the things you once loved, connect with others, or simply get through the day.
You may find yourself constantly worrying, overthinking, feeling emotionally drained, struggling to concentrate,
or wondering why everything feels so much harder than it used to.
If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone. Anxiety and depression are among the most common mental health challenges, and they are
highly treatable with the right support.
Through secure telehealth counseling, I help adults throughout Idaho better understand the connection between their thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and nervous system.
Together, we’ll explore the patterns contributing to your distress, develop
practical coping skills and build emotional resilience using evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and other trauma-informed interventions.
My goal isn’t simply to help you manage symptoms. It’s to help you understand yourself more deeply, respond to life’s challenges with greater confidence, and reconnect with
the parts of yourself that may have felt
lost along the way.
You don’t have to navigate anxiety or depression alone. Healing is possible, and lasting change begins with one conversation.
Schedule a consultation and take the
first step toward feeling more
like yourself again.

Therapy should fit into your life, not add more stress to it.
Telehealth allows you to meet with your therapist from the comfort, privacy, and convenience of your own home, office, or any confidential location with a secure internet connection. All you need is a computer, tablet, or smartphone with video capability.
I provide secure, HIPAA-compliant telehealth counseling to adults throughout Idaho using a confidential video platform designed to protect your privacy and personal information.
Research has shown that telehealth can be just as effective as in-person therapy for many mental health concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, and substance use.
Many clients appreciate the flexibility of online therapy. It eliminates travel time, makes scheduling easier, and allows you to engage in therapy from a space where you feel comfortable and at ease.
Whether you’re seeking support for trauma, anxiety, depression, addiction, or personal growth, you’ll receive the same compassionate, individualized care through telehealth as you would in a traditional office setting. Healing can begin wherever you are.
Schedule your telehealth consultation today and take the first step toward lasting change.
I believe accessing quality mental health care should be as straightforward as possible. As a courtesy, I will bill your insurance company directly when I am in network. If I am not contracted with your insurance plan, I can provide a superbill for you to submit for possible out-of-network reimbursement.
While I am happy to assist with insurance billing, please note that you are ultimately responsible for any balance not covered by your insurance plan.
Insurance Plans Accepted
I currently accept many insurance plans, including:
I also accept select Employee Assistance Programs (EAPs).
Because insurance benefits vary by plan, I encourage you to contact your insurance provider before your first appointment to verify your mental health benefits.
Questions to Ask Your Insurance Provider
To better understand your coverage, consider asking:
Many insurance plans cover telehealth services at the same rate as in-person therapy, and some cover telehealth at 100%. Coverage varies by plan, so it’s always best to verify your individual benefits.
Payment Options
Payment is due at the time of service.
For your convenience, I accept:
If you have questions about insurance, payment, or using out-of-network benefits, I’m happy to help you understand your options before your first appointment.
Choosing therapy is an investment in your well-being, relationships, and future. While financial considerations are important, many clients find that the skills and insight they gain through therapy continue to benefit them long after treatment has ended.
