Addiction therapists & psychiatrists in Idaho

I have spent my entire career spanning nearly three decades, dedicated to social work. I have worked during my undergrad in the medical field in such areas as hospice, home, health, rehabilitation, hospital, cancer center, and geriatric phycology.

Later, I earned my master's in trauma and mental health for Denver University. I now have been in a practice of mental health counseling for the last five years.

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.

Hi. I'm Susan (Simmons) Martinelli and, simply stated, "I love people"...every individual one. I have over 30 years' experience in the mental health field with people who may also suffer with substance use and addiction or vice versa. The two often go hand-in-hand and it can be a devastating and life-changing moment to realize you possibly have either a mental illness and/ or a substance/ alcohol use problem. I simply want to help you find your healthy path...whatever that is for you. I look forward to learning about you as a person and what we can accomplish together.

Hi there, my name is Marilyn and I have 34+ years as an experienced licensed clinical social worker specializing in substance abuse treatment and bereavement and specialize in treating depression, adjustment disorders, and mental health related to health issues.

I hold both a bachelors and masters degree in social work.

I believe therapy should be a dynamic, collaborative process that yields real-world results. My practice is built on a foundation of academic excellence and specialized training, including a BA in Psychology from University of Southern California and a Master of Social Work (MSW) from the University of Utah.

My Therapeutic Toolkit: Evidence-Based & Proactive

I don't believe in a "one-size-fits-all" approach. I blend several powerful, evidence-based modalities to help you achieve your goals quickly and effectively:

• ART (Accelerated Resolution Therapy): A specialized approach for trauma and PTSD that uses eye movements to "reprogram" distressing memories and sensations, often providing relief in just a few sessions.
• CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy): We will work together to identify and shift the thought patterns that keep you stuck in cycles of anxiety or depression.
• DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy): I provide practical skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and improving relationships—giving you a "manual" for navigating life's hardest moments.

I am a therapist that welcomes all, humbly, and strives to build community with those I encounter. You are welcome here, however you may be.

As a fully licensed therapist for 4+ years Ashley has had experience working with a wide range of clients. Recently she has begun to focus on women's health, ADHD and those with addiction issues.

I want to make all feel welcome and valued. I strive to create a safe space where my clients can feel heard and cared for. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck in your thoughts, or carrying stress that just won’t seem to let up — you’re not alone. It can be exhausting trying to keep everything together while quietly struggling on the inside. Therapy can be a place where you finally feel supported, understood, and able to breathe again.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Idaho with a Master’s degree in Counseling Psychology from Sofia University, where I specialized in Transpersonal Psychology. My clinical background includes extensive work in outpatient and residential treatment settings, as well as private practice telehealth care.

Many of the clients I support are looking not only to reduce distress, but also to better understand themselves, improve emotional regulation, and create a more grounded and meaningful life.

I provide care through a structured, ethical, and collaborative lens, with a strong focus on clinical clarity, treatment planning, and measurable progress.

'm a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor with experience supporting children, teens, adults, and families through anxiety, life transitions, emotional overwhelm, relationship challenges, and parenting stress. Clients often describe me as warm, authentic, down-to-earth, and easy to talk to. I believe therapy works best when people feel genuinely understood, and I see my role as helping clients make sense of themselves—their experiences, emotions, relationships, and strengths—so they can create meaningful change. As a wife and mother, I understand firsthand the complexities of balancing family, stress, identity, and caregiving.

I have been a small-town private practitioner in Idaho for many years doing lots of different kinds of therapies and evaluations. I believe I am able to connect with the patients and help them in ways they find meaningful.
