Are you feeling stuck in painful patterns and looking for support that truly meets you where you are? I help adults, couples, and families navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, and relationship struggles find steadier ground and reconnect with themselves and each other. My work is especially focused on helping people heal from hard experiences, build confidence, and create relationships that feel safe, honest, and fulfilling.
I specialize in working with individuals facing PTSD, complex trauma, substance abuse challenges, and more. I earned a Master of Social Work degree from Ohio State University College of Social Work in 2012.
I have spent my entire career spanning nearly three decades, dedicated to social work. I have worked during my undergrad in the medical field in such areas as hospice, home, health, rehabilitation, hospital, cancer center, and geriatric phycology.
Later, I earned my master's in trauma and mental health for Denver University. I now have been in a practice of mental health counseling for the last five years.
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.
Welcome! I am a board certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 10 years working in healthcare. I have undergraduate degrees in psychology and nursing as well as an advanced degree as a nurse practitioner. I specialize in treating depression, anxiety, ADHD, mood disorders, OCD, PTSD, and more.
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.
You might be feeling overwhelmed, stuck or just plain tired of trying to figure everything out on your own. Maybe anxiety keeps you up at night, or depression makes it hard to find the motivation to get through your day. Perhaps ADHD has you juggling a million things at once, but nothing feels like it's getting done. Maybe you're in the midst of a big change; a new role, shifting family dynamics, or health challenges and you're not sure how to navigate it all. I want you to know that you don't have to do it alone. Life doesn't always go as planned, and sometimes it can feel overwhelming to carry. We can find a way forward together.
As a board certified and licensed clinical professional counselor, I believe prioritizing mental health is key to stability in life. Seeking help can be a hard initial step and I am glad you are here. I have worked with various populations and have a diverse background including trauma, crisis, depression, anxiety, grief and relationship problems.
I stem from a solution based theory base but am also very eclectic in my approach. I offer virtual and in- person sessions where clients are encouraged to express themselves freely without fear of rejection or judgement.
I am dedicated to help individuals lead fulfilling lives. Starting therapy is a brave step and together we will uncover elusive core issues and assist in transforming blocks, leaving you free to thrive in the life you choose.
My approach integrates EMDR, ACT, mindfulness, and somatic practices. We will explore unhealthy thoughts, emotions, and beliefs. I bring a mind-body perspective to all my work and believe that therapy is a collaborative relationship.
What can clients expect from their first session with you?We will work to help you become your clear, loving, authentic, creative, and fearless self.

Frequently asked questions
Find the right therapist for you
Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Nampa
Searching for therapists in Nampa starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. You may be looking for help with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, stress, or major life changes. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties, training, and approach match what you want to address. Some therapists focus on cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, family therapy, couples counseling, or other approaches, so reading each profile can help you understand how they may work with you.
In a smaller city like Nampa, local appointment options may vary by specialty, schedule, and office location. Virtual therapy can expand your search across Idaho while still letting you work with a therapist licensed in the state. When narrowing your options, consider whether the therapist is accepting new patients, offers appointment times that fit your calendar, provides in-person or virtual sessions, and offers a free phone consultation. A therapist’s bio can also show how they describe their communication style, session structure, and areas of focus before you book.
Therapy in Nampa can be a significant expense without insurance, and using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for therapists who take insurance, review detailed profiles, verify your benefits, and see your estimated cost before booking. You can compare therapists by specialty, availability, appointment format, and insurance fit, making it easier to find someone who matches your needs, accepts your plan, and is ready to take new patients.
If you or someone you know is experiencing severe withdrawal symptoms — especially from alcohol or benzodiazepines — talk to a medical provider or seek emergency care before starting outpatient therapy. If you or someone you know is struggling with addiction or substance use and is in a crisis, immediately reach out to:
* 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline — call or text 988 * SAMHSA National Helpline — 1-800-662-HELP (4357), free, confidential, 24/7 * Crisis Text Line — text HOME to 741741
If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
