Brian Coleman

Brian Coleman

Therapist

Virtual • Idaho


I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with experience helping individuals, couples, families, and adolescents navigate a wide range of mental health and substance use challenges. I earned my Master of Social Work from Arizona State University and hold an associate's degree in Addiction Counseling Education.

My areas of specialization include substance use and co-occurring disorders, trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, and other behavioral health concerns. I use an integrative, evidence-based approach tailored to each client's unique needs, drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Motivational Interviewing, and mindfulness-based practices.

Although my clinical career began in substance use treatment, my experience has expanded to include behavioral health across a variety of settings, providing therapy for adults, adolescents, children, relationship counseling, crisis intervention, and ongoing support for individuals working toward emotional well-being and meaningful life changes.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Meridian

Searching for therapists in Meridian starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. People often look for therapy for anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, life transitions, or work stress. As you compare Meridian therapists, look for someone whose training and listed specialties match what you want to address. A therapist’s bio can also show whether they use approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care.

In a smaller city like Meridian, local appointment options may be more limited than in larger metro areas, so virtual therapy can help expand your search across Idaho. You may prefer in-person counseling in Meridian, or you may want the flexibility of virtual sessions that fit your schedule. Beyond specialty, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading profiles before booking can help you understand each therapist’s communication style, session structure, and approach to care.

Therapy in Meridian can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before your first visit. Headway helps you find therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, see estimated out-of-pocket costs upfront, and book directly when you’re ready. You can browse therapists in Meridian, review bios, and choose someone who matches your needs, schedule, and coverage.
