With a strong foundation in both social work and law enforcement, I bring a compassionate, grounded, and practical perspective to therapy. I hold both a Bachelor’s and Master’s degree in Social Work and spent eight years in law enforcement, primarily working patrol. This experience gave me the opportunity to support individuals and families during some of the most challenging and vulnerable moments of their lives.
Through my professional work—and my own lived experiences with critical and traumatic incidents—I developed a deep commitment to helping others heal from trauma. I specialize in trauma-focused therapy and work with individuals navigating life’s challenges, processing difficult past experiences, and building resilience for the future.
My approach blends clinical expertise with real-world understanding to create a space that is supportive, nonjudgmental, and genuine. I strive to ensure clients feel heard, respected, and empowered throughout the therapeutic process. Whether you are working through trauma, adjusting to life transitions, or seeking healthier coping strategies, I aim to help you gain clarity, strengthen your inner resources, and move forward with confidence. I’m here to support you every step of the way on your path toward healing and personal growth.
I earned a Masters degree from Northwest Nazarene University in clinical counseling in 2014. I am currently licensed in the state of Idaho and Montana.

Are you on a journey of self-discovery and self-improvement? Or perhaps it has come to your attention that you are repeating patterns in your life that don't serve you anymore. In your work with me, I will teach you a variety of tools to use for finding the best version of yourself. I can help you understand complex emotions like shame, guilt, hopelessness, and lack of purpose. I will also help you look at deep-set core beliefs, how they may hinder you, and help you to learn how to change them. I also enjoy addressing spiritual and religious concerns.
You replay conversations long after they're over. You shut down or say too much, then spend the day wishing you hadn't. You're not bad at relationships. You're anxious in them. You hold back. You give in to keep the peace, then quietly resent it. You want to be closer to the people you love. but something always gets in the way. It doesn't have to stay this way.
I am Lucretia Donahue-Reed, and I bring over 30 years of experience in the mental health field to our therapeutic relationship. My background is diverse, including 20 years working on a hospital youth acute psychiatric unit helping families in crisis and earlier experience using biofeedback to assist adults with chronic pain and trauma. I earned my Master’s degree from Eastern Washington University in 1990 and have been in private practice for 12 years.
To help you relate to my journey, I believe in being open about the life challenges I have faced, which tested my own clinical knowledge. These experiences—including a spouse's job loss, the loss of a home, a divorce, and managing a high-stress career—led me to develop an autoimmune disorder. This personal history gives me a unique perspective on navigating difficult life transitions and chronic health conditions.
In my current practice, I focus on the following:
Individual Focus: While I have a background in family crisis, I now primarily provide therapy to individuals rather than couples or families.
Specialized Areas: I specialize in Anxiety, Trauma/PTSD, and Stress, as well as depression, grief, and autoimmune-related issues.
Populations Served: I work with adults and elders (65+) who are motivated to grow and regain control of their lives.
I offer in-person sessions in Coeur d'Alene and Hayden, Idaho, and online for residents of Idaho and Washington.
Hi, I'm Brittney, and I'm excited to support you on your journey to better mental health! I'm board certified as a psychiatric nurse practitioner. I primarily focus on OCD, anxiety, and depression. I am no longer accepting new ADHD clients. My goal is to create a safe, supportive space where we can work together to help you thrive. I look forward to meeting you!
Emotional exhaustion can look like functioning.
You may be the person others depend on while quietly feeling overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, or disconnected from yourself. At Milton’s Place Counseling, therapy offers a supportive space to slow down, process what you are carrying, and identify practical next steps. I work with clients navigating anxiety, depression, grief, stress, and major life transitions. You do not have to wait until you are in crisis to seek support.
If anxiety, depression, grief, or ongoing stress are making daily life feel harder, you don’t have to navigate it alone. I work with adolescents, adults, and families who feel overwhelmed, emotionally stuck, or unsure how to move forward. Many parents seek support when they notice changes in their teen’s mood, behavior, school functioning, or communication, while adults often come to therapy feeling exhausted, disconnected, or weighed down by life transitions and relationship stress.
Hi, I’m Taylor Garff, a licensed therapist and the founder of Inner Heart Therapy. I work with adults who are navigating anxiety, stress, and identity, especially folks in the LGBTQ+ community or anyone feeling overwhelmed by life’s demands.
I’m someone who believes therapy should feel like a soft place to land, not another thing you have to “get right.” My clients tell me they appreciate my warmth, humor, and ability to hold space for both the hard stuff and the hope. I’ll meet you with curiosity, compassion, and no pressure to be anything other than fully human.
In our work together, we might explore your anxious thoughts, practice ways to feel safer and more grounded in your body, or untangle patterns that keep you stuck. I use a mix of tools, like cognitive-behavioral therapy, nervous system regulation, and the Safe and Sound Protocol, to support you in finding more ease, clarity, and connection in your life.
If you’ve ever felt like you had to explain or defend your experiences, I want you to know you won’t have to do that here. This is a space where all of you is welcome.
