Anxiety and depression therapists and psychiatrists in Meridian, ID

Nathan has lived in Idaho for the majority of the past forty years. He enjoys nature, the great outdoors and the four seasons. He also enjoys good humor, camping, gardening, sculpting, woodworking and time with his family. Nathan has worked as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker for over nineteen years in East Idaho and has developed a proprietary curriculum to help those who struggle with life issues such as anxiety, depression, addiction and PTSD.

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.

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.

As a fully licensed therapist for 4+ years Ashley has had experience working with a wide range of clients. Recently she has begun to focus on women's health, ADHD and those with addiction issues.

My experience is centered on collaborating with youth, adults, and families. During these developing years and shifting dynamics, additional care for our health is needed. I work with emotional regulation, relational rifts, enhancing communication, and acceptance of self.

With attachment focused therapy as my base, I utilize mindfulness and experiential approaches in our work together. Our conversations and therapeutic activities are guided by your experience and goals.
