Some pain doesn't get easier with time. It just gets more familiar.
I work with people who have been carrying something heavy for a long time: survivors of childhood neglect and trauma, people navigating the aftermath of sexual, physical, emotional, or religious violence, and those whose sense of self has been fractured by relational or spiritual betrayal. I also work with Veterans living with PTSD, depression, and substance use, and with thoughtful professionals seeking deep, ongoing therapy to work through disrupted beliefs or a life that has lost its meaning. My practice is open to people across the full lifespan, including children and adolescents.
I’m Dr. Sean Burson, a licensed therapist in Washington and Idaho. My background includes work in hospice care, ministry, and military settings, which has shaped how I listen and care for people. I bring a grounded, compassionate presence and value building real trust with my clients. I believe our stories deeply shape who we are, and therapy can help us understand and rewrite them with intention and hope.
I'm Randall Allen, a licensed therapist. I earned a Bachelor of Education degree from Northern Arizona University in 1987 and a Master of Counseling degree with High Distinction from Colorado Christian University in 2016. I am licensed in Arizona and New Mexico with over 10 years of professional work experience. My schedule is subject to change as I am a provider on other platforms (both online & in-person) and I have a side job as a high school sports official.
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.
Outside of my work as a therapist, I enjoy spending time outdoors, riding my horses, and being with my family. These activities help me stay grounded and connected to what matters most in life. I value balance, authenticity, and meaningful relationships, and I bring those same values into my work with clients. I strive to create a welcoming, supportive environment where clients feel comfortable being themselves and working toward their goals.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 10 years of experience helping adults find clarity, relief, and real change. I hold a minor in family studies and a certification in refugee studies, which deepened my commitment to working with people from all walks of life, including those who have faced systemic hardship or displacement. My clinical background spans anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, mood disorders, military and veteran family challenges, generational trauma, and relationship-based harm. I believe everyone deserves a space where they feel truly heard and never judged.
Hi there! I'm Jess- a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, military wife, and mom of two toddlers. I have over a decade of experience supporting women through anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and major life transitions, including motherhood. My background spans schools, community mental health, substance abuse treatment centers, and child welfare.
I'm a blind, loving, funny, and sincere person. I'm imperfect and have learned to be (mostly) okay with it. Growing up with a degenerative eye disease left me with a weight on my chest of fighting what my body was doing and trying to convince everyone I was fine, when I wasn't. I think we're all trying to hide ourselves from ourselves and from others and it is complete nonsense. Every part of you is welcome, even the parts you hate about yourself or that others find difficult. Often the parts of us we fight against are there for a very good reason. Once we show those parts love and respect we can start to be okay.
My day job is as a Director of Telehealth Programming at a WA non-profit community mental health agency. I've been providing therapy for 12 years, a supervisor/director for 8 years and trained and presented on play therapy locally and nationally.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Boise
> Searching for therapists in Boise starts with knowing what kind of support you want. Boise therapists may focus on concerns like anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, stress, or major life changes. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties match your needs. Their bio can also show whether they use approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or acceptance and commitment therapy. > > Boise has a growing mental health care community, with options across areas like Downtown, the North End, the Bench, and nearby suburbs. In-person sessions may work well if you want a therapist office near you, while virtual appointments can add more choice if your schedule or location makes travel harder. To narrow your search, compare appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking can help you understand how each therapist describes their style, session structure, and experience. > > Therapy in Boise can be expensive without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower your session cost and understand what you may pay before you book. Headway helps you search for Boise therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, view estimated out-of-pocket costs, and book directly when you are ready.
