Therapy in Boise and across Idaho

What got you this far isn’t working anymore.

Does this sound like you?

You don’t have to relate to all of these. Most people see themselves in one or two.

“I don’t recognize myself anymore.”

A divorce, a big change, or a slow drift has left you wondering who you are now, and who you want to be next.

“I can’t keep this pace, but I can’t slow down either.”

You’re good at what you do. You also can’t remember the last time you felt rested. You want to keep your edge without burning through yourself.

“Everyone leans on me. No one asks how I’m doing.”

You’ve held it together for so long that you’re not sure how to put any of it down.

“I just need something to take the edge off.”

A drink, an edible, late-night scrolling, or staying too busy to feel has become how you unwind and cope. You’re starting to notice what it’s costing you.

If you’re tired of the way things are and ready for something different, even if it scares you, you’re in the right place.

Therapy that goes deeper than talk

Stress and trauma don’t only live in your thoughts. They live in your body, too. That’s why my approach blends evidence-based therapy with somatic, intuitive, and energetic practices, working with your mind, body, and spirit together.

You are the expert on your own life. I walk alongside you with clinical skill, honesty, and care, helping you reach the kind of healing talk alone sometimes can’t. I’m direct and collaborative, and I genuinely believe in your capacity to heal.

The goal isn’t just managing symptoms. It’s real, lasting change.

What becomes possible

Everyone’s path is different. Here’s what clients often describe as the work unfolds:

  • You feel understood, without judgment.

    Nothing you bring is too much. The way you react starts to make sense, to both of us, and it stops feeling like a mystery or a failure.

  • You have tools that work.

    Real skills for the moments that used to knock you over.

  • You know where you’re headed.

    A clearer sense of direction and what matters to you.

  • You feel like yourself again.

    Or maybe for the first time. Life feels less chaotic, and you feel more in command of it.

Hi, I’m Denise.

I didn’t learn this work only from textbooks. I’ve walked through my own healing experiences that have required me to release old identities that once kept me going: the overworker, the overachiever, the one who prepared for everything. I still work on these every day.

What I’ve found is that I can bring every part of myself to the table, and I’m okay. That truth has quieted the anxiety, the over-preparing, the sense of never being enough, and the pull toward perfection.

It’s what I hope you find, too. For more than 25 years, I’ve worked in behavioral health and substance use treatment, first in state and community systems and now in private practice. I bring clinical skill, honesty, and a whole-person lens, and I love helping people take their next right step.

Starting is simpler than you think

    Share your name, contact info, the times that work for you, and a sentence about why now. It takes about two minutes.

  2. I’ll reach out.

    Within two business days, usually one, I’ll contact you to find a time and answer your questions. Evening appointments are available.

  3. We begin.

    In person in Boise or by telehealth anywhere in Idaho. Our first session is about getting to know you: what’s bringing you in, what you want to be different, and how we’ll work together.

Beyond therapy

For the part of you asking bigger questions

Some people come to me wanting more than therapy offers: clarity on purpose, direction, and the deeper patterns shaping their life. For them, I offer Akashic Records readings and intuitive coaching, separate from my therapy practice.
