Hi! My name is Rick Westby. I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor in Coeur d Alene, ID, also licensed in the great state of Arizona. Our son and I own a private practice in Coeur d Alene, with another branch office in the Silver Valley of North Idaho. I previously operated a private counseling practice in Maricopa, AZ, serving all manner of folks, from youth to elderly, male and female, court or self referred. I work with relationship difficulties, parenting, blended families, addiction, anxiety, depression, and that general sense of "I don't know what's going on with me." I believe nobody is broken and tend to focus far more on solutions than problems. I'm told I have a pleasant, laid back demeanor. I find its helpful to look at our troubles with hope and humor and, focused on solution, brainstorm your values and goals and craft a plan together that leads to where you want to go. Life seems somewhat challenging at times; if we remember occasional life difficulty is part of the journey, we can be at peace and find contentment even when things aren't going our way. I have master's degrees in Professional Counseling and Addiction Counseling from Grand Canyon University, as well as a bachelor's degree in criminal justice. I came to this profession later in life after a lot of years in sales and hospitality, and some time far less focused on career than on parenting. I have personal experience and perspective on many of the curve balls life tosses our way, including marriage and divorce, addiction, blended families, adoption, and career change. If you are ready for help getting past a hurdle in life, or navigating the pathway to peace, I'd be honored to spend whatever time and effort it takes to help move forward, in your valued direction. Lets have a healing conversation.

Everyone needs a little help some times and some of us need a lot of help all of the time, either way I'm here to guide you through the fog to the light on the other side. I love to help wherever I can, but I work especially well with depression and anxiety, with teenagers, and with families. I have spent the better part of the last 10 years working with everyone from teenagers to adults. I have training in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), TF-CBT, MRT, DBT, and lots of other letters. I have been certified in anger management. I've worked in the court system, I've met with inmates in the jail, and I've helped kids in a school setting. Therapy is more than talking and solving problems, it's about building relationships. It is my goal to build a relationship with everyone that walks in my door. A wise man once told me, "No one learns anything from someone they don't like," and I've made it my mission to connect with everyone that I've ever worked with.
