Great to meet you!

Nathan has lived in Idaho for the majority of the past forty years. He enjoys nature, the great outdoors and the four seasons. He also enjoys good humor, camping, gardening, sculpting, woodworking and time with his family. Nathan has worked as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker for over nineteen years in East Idaho and has developed a proprietary curriculum to help those who struggle with life issues such as anxiety, depression, addiction and PTSD.

My approach to therapy

he model of treatment provided is based on the understanding that healthy relationships provide healing. These healthy relationships are with ourselves, God and with those who are important to us. The barriers to these relationships are embedded in trauma histories. Growth, change and healing occur when we are taught Trauma Resiliency skills and healthy relationship skills as an individual and more effectively in a group process.

What you can expect from me

Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy is used in the treatment plan as well to help in processing past traumas, rewiring the neural-pathways in the brain and interrupting the fear loops and default mode networks that keep us stuck in the same old destructive patterns. The new pathways - neurogenesis and new insights - through neuroplasticity, allows us to break free from addictive behaviors and intrusive negative thoughts and feelings.
