Therapist

Hi, I’m Rebekah! Welcome to Redeemed Narrative Therapy (a dba of Rebekah Scott, LLC). With over 12,500 clinical sessions, I specialize in helping adult residents in Idaho navigate recovery from PTSD, complex trauma, narcissistic abuse, and spiritual or emotional harm.

I hold an Ed.S. in Traumatology from Liberty University and have spent years building a practice rooted in resilience, discernment, and hope. I integrate a faith-informed perspective for Christian adults seeking trauma resolution, while honoring and welcoming clients from all background walks of life.

My goal is to help you move beyond just "surviving" so you can truly live well. I primarily do this using evidence-based trauma methods—including Narrative Exposure Therapy (5-NET) and Written Exposure Therapy (WET)—to process stored memories, regulate your nervous system, and reduce intrusive symptoms of PTSD (such as hypervigilance, anxiety, and feeling stuck in past events).

Hi, I'm Molly, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who believes deeply in the power of connection, presence, and honoring the wisdom you already carry. I have extensive experience supporting women and adolescents navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, family and relationship challenges, attachment patterns, and the lasting emotional impact of difficult or overwhelming experiences.

I also work with individuals facing major life transitions, helping them navigate the uncertainty, performance pressure, anxiety, and depression that can accompany periods of significant change. Whether you’re working through a painful chapter or seeking greater clarity and self-understanding, my goal is to create a space where you feel safe, seen, and empowered to move forward.

I am committed to creating a therapy space that is inclusive, affirming, culturally responsive, and grounded in compassion, curiosity, and respect.

Hi everyone! I’m a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker at Bumblebee Therapy.

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.

Misty Besch

Therapist

Virtual • Coeur d'Alene, ID


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.

You're here because something needs to change, and that takes courage. I specialize in working with teens and adults navigating anxiety, stress, trauma, and life's major transitions. This is built on a simple truth: you already have the answers inside you; sometimes you just need help accessing them. I don't believe in focusing solely on the past or offering surface-level advice. Instead, we'll acknowledge what happened, understand how it shaped you, then focus our energy on building the life you actually want. This is your journey, I'm just here to walk alongside you, challenge you when needed, and remind you of your own power.
