Hi there, my name is Marilyn and I have 34+ years as an experienced licensed clinical social worker specializing in substance abuse treatment and bereavement and specialize in treating depression, adjustment disorders, and mental health related to health issues.
I hold both a bachelors and masters degree in social work.
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.
My name is Ben Zinke and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in the States of Idaho and California. I graduated from Loma Linda University with a master in Marriage and Family Therapy in 2006 and a PhD in Family Studies in 2012. I also have work experience as a mediator, a college professor and a financial coach which tends to provide perspective in therapy.
I am passionate about helping individuals navigate life’s challenges with greater clarity, confidence, and self-compassion. I work with adolescents and adults who may be struggling with anxiety, depression, eating disorders, low self-worth, family conflict, and major life transitions.
My approach is both compassionate and collaborative. I strive to create a safe, supportive space where you feel heard, understood, and not judged. I believe that therapy is not one-size-fits-all, so I tailor my work to meet your unique needs and goals. Together, we’ll explore patterns, build healthier coping strategies, and work toward meaningful, lasting change.
I have experience supporting clients through complex family dynamics, cultural expectations, and identity development. I also work closely with individuals dealing with disordered eating and body image concerns, helping them develop a more balanced and trusting relationship with themselves.
Clients often describe me as warm, direct, and thoughtful. I will meet you with empathy while also gently challenging you when needed to help you grow.
Starting therapy can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to do it alone. My goal is to walk alongside you as you build insight, resilience, and a life that feels more aligned with who you are.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health 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.
