Creating a safe space for healing and growth

Sometimes even small changes can have a profound impact on our lives. Everyone deserves to enjoy their journey no matter life’s circumstances. We invite you to take some time on our website to learn about our team and decide if you could benefit from counseling.

How it works

Your journey to better mental health starts here

We make getting professional counseling support simple, accessible, and tailored to your unique needs.

Step 01

A Typical Call

Clients usually reach out after visiting our clean, easy-to-navigate website, by call, text, or email. Because the first contact can feel difficult, our support staff uses compassionate, welcoming language, asks a few simple questions to understand their needs, and answers common questions about insurance, counselors, and what to expect.

We explain the required paperwork—HIPAA forms, consent to treat, and intake forms—which can be completed online or in our office. Once the paperwork is done, we schedule the first appointment and guide the client through the next steps.

Step 02

First Appointment

When the client arrives, they may feel nervous or unsure — this is completely normal.

They are warmly greeted by our support staff. The counselor meets them in the lobby, walks them to their office, and begins the first session by discussing history, goals, and building rapport. Our office space is private, welcoming, and designed to create a safe, non-judgmental environment.

Step 03

Ongoing Therapy

Clients continue their journey toward stronger mental wellness by attending regular sessions with their counselor and working on their identified goals. The counselor provides consistent, high-quality care throughout the process, while our support staff remains available to help with scheduling, billing, and administrative needs.

About Me :

Royce is a highly experienced counselor specializing in anxiety and OCD, combining thousands of clinical hours with personal insight gained from his own journey with anxiety.

About Me :

Howdy! My name is Jayce. I grew up around Utah and Idaho and have extensive knowledge about the cultures around here. I’m a big fan of nature, horror movies, sports, reading, philosophy, and food. 

I’ve always been fascinated by people and psychology, and that inevitably led me to the field of counseling. Overall, I have 10 years of experience working in the human services, with over 5 of those being in counseling. I have previously worked in addiction services, homeless outreach, youth rehabilitation, and acute mental health services. 

My counseling background is primarily in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), but I also frequently use tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Internal Family Systems (IFS). Counseling is all about you, so I try to be flexible in the way we approach each obstacle in your life. 

I’m here to meet you where you are at on your mental health journey and help you find the knowledge, tools, and courage to continue progressing.

About Me :

After spending nearly a decade in finance and customer service, I felt a strong pull toward a new path—one where I could have more meaningful impact and align my work with my values. I’ve been counseling clients for three and a half years, working for Mark Rodel and Royce Woodhouse, whose mentorship I value more than I can express, and have been inspired by Karla LaOrange in education, who navigates life and leadership with courage, compassion, and conviction. I went back to school a few times and have degrees in TESOL, Organizational Leadership, and a Master’s degree in Social Work

I specialize in helping clients navigate challenges related to anxiety, depression, relationship/family and marriage concerns, addiction, and life transitions. My approach integrates ACT, CBT, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and values-based strategies, empowering clients to make choices aligned with their personal values, build emotional resilience, and develop actionable plans for growth. I emphasize validation, empathy, and perspective-taking, helping individuals and families bear life’s burdens in ways that strengthen relationships and promote lasting change.

In addition to individual therapy, I draw on insights from my work in education and leadership, supporting individuals in navigating conflict, enhancing communication, setting boundaries, and fostering healthy dynamics in both personal and professional contexts. My value is to create a safe, supportive, and affirming environment where clients feel heard, understood, and equipped to move forward with clarity, confidence, and purpose. 

I have spent time writing about and documenting an approach to leadership that focuses on people, and have written two books, with a third set to be published this year. The approach consists of validation, decisions based on values, and a focus on processes and systems over outcomes. The third highlights structures for having difficult conversations. Below are the titles:

Validative Leadership: At-Leasters of Positivity

Validative Leadership: No Such Thing as a Bigshot

Validating Leadership: Delivering Discipline with Directness (coming soon)

Christina Hodge

LCPC

10 Yeard of Experience

Speciality tags :

Trauma, Anxiety, Communication, Behavioral Issues, Addiction Issues, OCD.

About Me :

My name is Christina! I have worked in the mental health field for 15+ years in many different capacities. For the last 10 years, I have worked as a therapist with a wide range of clients from children to end-of-life. Outside of therapy, I enjoy spending time with my family, from playing video games to going on outdoor adventures. I enjoy art in all its forms and like to challenge myself by trying new forms of creativity. 

I believe in the power of holistic healing as part of the therapeutic process, and that how we think affects how we feel, which in turn affects how we navigate our lives. I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and other modalities to create a safe space for exploring challenges, building resilience, and fostering meaningful change. As a certified TF-CBT therapist (trauma-focused cognitive-behavioral therapy), I specialize in trauma-focused care to meet each client’s unique needs and experiences. In my work with couples, I focus on strengthening healthy communication, trust, and emotional connection. Currently, I work with teens, adults, and couples. 

Therapy is a journey that we embark on together to face obstacles challenging one’s wellbeing, growth, and progress. With a compassionate and client-centered approach, I help guide and support through life’s complexities, embracing both struggles and strengths to cultivate growth and transformation.

Elderly Population, Grief or Loss, Marriage and Family, Alzheimer's, Women's Issues, Parenting, CBT, DBT, Divorce, Spirituality, Relationship Issues, Pregnancy and Postpartum, ACT, Depression, Anxiety

About Me :

My therapy approach is eclectic but leans more toward a cognitive behavioral approach. My passion is to help clients learn a way of thinking about how their thoughts, feelings, and actions are connected. I want to help people recognize and change their negative thought patterns so they can feel better and make healthier choices. My passion is also to help people discover themselves and help them facilitate their personal growth as they understand their true selves.

I am open to working with any clients from any walk of life, including those from a religious background. My communication style is warm and friendly. I provide an environment where clients can feel safe and comfortable, but also be challenged, especially in areas where they need to grow.

My journey in the mental health field began a little over ten years ago when I applied to be a community-based rehabilitation worker and a case manager. After ten years in the field, I felt called to become a mental health therapist to understand the human mind and to make a difference in people’s lives.

About Me :

I am a Licensed Master Social Worker who is passionate about walking alongside individuals and families as they navigate life’s challenges. I work with children, teens, adults, couples, and families, and I specialize in helping clients struggling with anxiety, mood disturbances, and behavioral issues. My style is warm, supportive, and solution-focused, but also direct when clients need encouragement to take the next step toward change. I believe therapy works best when it feels like a safe space for honesty, growth, and collaboration.

I strive to meet each client where they are, tailoring my approach to their unique needs and goals. Whether it’s helping a child manage big emotions, supporting a teenager through life transitions, guiding couples toward healthier communication, or walking with an adult through anxiety or stress, my focus is on helping clients build resilience and discover practical tools that empower them beyond the therapy room.

I moved from Ohio to Idaho, and I’ve loved making Idaho my home! In my free time, I enjoy embracing all that Idaho has to offer — from hiking and paddleboarding in the summer to skiing in the winter. At home, I love spending time with my two dogs, curling up with a good book, or enjoying a game of cards with friends and family.

About Me :

McKenzie is a Licensed Professional Counselor with over four years of experience walking alongside kids and teens as they navigate some of life’s most challenging moments. I specialize in working with children and adolescents dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, and crisis. I’m passionate about helping young people understand themselves and their emotions in a safe, supportive space. Although new to working with adults, I believe a lot of my practice is the same, just with a little more maturity and less toys 🙂

My approach is person-centered and strengths-based — which means I believe every individual has the inner tools and resilience needed for growth and healing. I love using psychoeducation to help clients and families feel informed and empowered throughout the counseling process.

Outside of the therapy room, you’ll usually find me outside soaking up nature, hanging out with my own kids, or listening to music. I bring that same grounded, human approach into my work — meeting each client where they are, and helping them move forward at their own pace.
