'm a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor with experience supporting children, teens, adults, and families through anxiety, life transitions, emotional overwhelm, relationship challenges, and parenting stress. Clients often describe me as warm, authentic, down-to-earth, and easy to talk to. I believe therapy works best when people feel genuinely understood, and I see my role as helping clients make sense of themselves—their experiences, emotions, relationships, and strengths—so they can create meaningful change. As a wife and mother, I understand firsthand the complexities of balancing family, stress, identity, and caregiving.

Heidi Riddle

Heidi Riddle

Therapist

Virtual • Idaho


I believe therapy should be a dynamic, collaborative process that yields real-world results. My practice is built on a foundation of academic excellence and specialized training, including a BA in Psychology from University of Southern California and a Master of Social Work (MSW) from the University of Utah.

My Therapeutic Toolkit: Evidence-Based & Proactive

I don't believe in a "one-size-fits-all" approach. I blend several powerful, evidence-based modalities to help you achieve your goals quickly and effectively:

  • ART (Accelerated Resolution Therapy): A specialized approach for trauma and PTSD that uses eye movements to "reprogram" distressing memories and sensations, often providing relief in just a few sessions.
  • CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy): We will work together to identify and shift the thought patterns that keep you stuck in cycles of anxiety or depression.
  • DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy): I provide practical skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and improving relationships—giving you a "manual" for navigating life's hardest moments.

I'm Kate, a trauma-informed therapist licensed in Idaho and Washington who works exclusively with women 18 and older. My specialty is helping you understand the patterns that keep showing up — in your relationships, your reactions, your sense of self — and where they actually came from. I work with anxiety, trauma, PTSD, postpartum changes, grief, and life transitions. Whether you've been in therapy before or this is your first time, my style is warm, body-inclusive, and genuinely curious about who you are — not just the problem you came in with.

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.

What is your approach to therapy?

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.

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 Idaho

Searching for therapists in Idaho starts with finding someone whose training fits what you want to address. Across the state, needs and available therapists can vary between urban and rural areas, so it helps to look closely at specialties before booking. You may want support for anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, grief, or life transitions. Review each therapist’s listed focus areas, approach, and experience to see whether they match your needs.

Location and format can also shape your search. You may find in-person therapists near Boise, Idaho Falls, or Coeur d’Alene, while virtual appointments can expand your options across Idaho if local availability is limited. As you compare therapists, look at appointment times, whether they are accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading bios can also help you understand how a therapist structures sessions and communicates with the people they support.

The cost of mental health care in Idaho varies, and using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway makes it easier to search for therapists who take your insurance, view estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book, and choose from therapists accepting new patients. Nationally, Headway works with over 100 insurance plans, so you can browse therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
