Welcome. I have been a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor for over 17 years. I grew up in Idaho and received my Master's in Counseling from Boise State University. I strive to create a space where you feel heard, respected, and supported. I believe every person has a unique story, and my role is to walk alongside you as we explore challenges, build on your strengths, and work toward the changes that matter most to you.

I believe therapy should be a place where you feel safe, heard, and accepted. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship concerns, ADHD, grief, or major life transitions, my goal is to help you better understand yourself, develop effective coping strategies, and create meaningful, lasting change.

I earned my Master of Social Work from the University of Texas at Arlington and have experience in private practice, medical social work, community mental health, and pediatric therapy. I am EMDR-trained and integrate evidence-based approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), trauma-informed therapy, Motivational Interviewing, strengths-based therapy, and play therapy when working with children.

I work with clients across the lifespan and enjoy helping people heal from trauma, manage anxiety and stress, improve emotional regulation, strengthen relationships, and build resilience. My approach is collaborative and individualized because I believe every person brings unique strengths and experiences to therapy.

Taking the first step toward therapy can feel overwhelming, but you don't have to do it alone. I would be honored to walk alongside you as you move toward healing, growth, and the life you want to create.

Hello, my name is Kateri Ross, and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I earned my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from the University of California, Davis, and my Master of Arts in Counseling Psychology with an emphasis in Health Psychology from Santa Clara University.

My clinical background includes work in both community mental health and private practice settings, where I have helped individuals manage acute challenges as well as long-standing emotional and behavioral patterns that impact daily functioning and overall well-being.

I specialize in working with adults ages 18 and older experiencing anxiety, depression, OCD, trauma, postpartum depression and anxiety, binge eating, perfectionism, procrastination, stress management, and life transitions. I also support individuals who struggle with self-critical thinking, guilt, shame, emotional overwhelm, managing stress or difficulty maintaining balance during demanding phases of life.

Hello—I’m so glad you’re here.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and I received my Master’s degree from the University of Utah in 2009. I deeply believe in the value of seeking support—because being human means navigating both grief and gratitude, often at the same time.

There are seasons in life when we need additional support, and you don’t have to move through those alone. I strive in helping you reconnect with yourself, build self-trust, and make sense of what you’re carrying.

I specialize in women’s mental health, anxiety, betrayal trauma, divorce, grief, and loss.

Hi, I’m Rick. If you’re here, you’ve already taken one of the hardest steps—reaching out. Life can feel heavy, confusing, or stuck at times, and therapy is a place to slow down, breathe, and find your footing again.

My work focuses on helping people rebuild trust in themselves and in the life they want to live. Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, addiction, relationship struggles, or a sense that “something needs to change,” I help you identify what matters most and move toward it with clarity and courage.

Clients often describe my style as grounded, straightforward, and compassionate. I believe in honest conversations, practical tools, and a good sense of humor when things get tough. Together, we’ll look at the patterns that keep you stuck, strengthen your ability to respond instead of react, and build a more authentic, values-based way of living.

If you’re ready to do real work in a supportive space—one that balances challenge and encouragement—I’d be honored to walk alongside you.

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 have been licensed since 2020 and have been working in a private practice ever since. Currently I see individuals ages 13 and up. I am a straight forward counselor and not afraid to call clients out on their inconsistencies. (You are saying you want these changes in life to be made but are your actions in line with your goals). Overall I go by the motto..if you are not changing it, then you are choosing it.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor who’s interested in supporting you to get back to a life worth living. I work with adults who feel exhausted, scared, stuck and overwhelmed. My style is structured, warm, compassionate, and collaborative.

I am a Clinical Psychologist dedicated to helping you navigate mental health concerns, gain a deeper understanding of yourself and your relationships, and build practical tools for living a more authentic and fulfilling life. I believe therapy is a space for insight, growth, and meaningful change.
