LGBT therapists in Idaho

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.

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.

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.

I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker practicing in Colorado, Idaho Washington & Oregon. I've been in practice 26 years. I graduated from Walla Walla University with a Master in Social Work in 2000.

I use a number of therapeutic techniques including Motivational Interviewing, CBT, ACT, Trauma Informed Care, Mindfulness and strengths based techniques. My goal is to help you become a better version of yourself.

As a board certified and licensed clinical professional counselor, I believe prioritizing mental health is key to stability in life. Seeking help can be a hard initial step and I am glad you are here. I have worked with various populations and have a diverse background including trauma, crisis, depression, anxiety, grief and relationship problems.

I’m a board‐certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, and I care deeply about helping adults feel understood and supported. I work with people experiencing mood, anxiety, trauma‐related, and neurodivergent challenges, and I try to make the process feel calm, collaborative, and human. As a woman of color, I understand how meaningful it can be to have a provider who recognizes the impact of identity, culture, and lived experience on mental health. I’m committed to providing inclusive, affirming care for LGBTQIA+ individuals and people from all backgrounds. My practice centers on safety, respect, and whole‐person wellbeing through medication management, education, and supportive guidance tailored to your goals.

I have 26 years of experience dealing with individuals, couples, families in therapy. We will work together to develop plans that are unique and right for you.
