North End Counseling LLC

I just moved to beautiful Boise from Austin, Texas where I worked with many clients who identify themselves as LGBT.

My clients describe me as an open, caring, empathic and knowledgeable counselor.

I work with individual adult clients struggling with depression, anxiety, phobias, grief and loss, life transition issues, relationship issues, stress, as well as traumas both big and small ones. My approach is eclectic and I use EMDR, CBT, person centered and relational approaches to name a few. I customize my approach to your specific needs.

I enjoy using EMDR when possible since this approach allows the brain to naturally process stuck memories, beliefs and traumas.

EMDR addresses all aspects of trauma including negative beliefs, body sensations, and of course disturbing memories. During EMDR both hemispheres of the brain are engaged which allows the traumatic memories to be "digested" and become more like other memories. Traumatic memories are stored differently in our brain and as a result we oftentimes are easily triggered, have nightmares, heightened anxiety and startle response.

I am looking forward to setting up a free 20 minute consultation with you in person or on the phone to determine if we are a good therapeutic match.

Please email or call me.
