My name is Garlena Rumsey, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Idaho. I am a Qualified Mental Health Professional (QMHP) in Oregon. I live in a border town in Idaho and Oregon is 4 miles away. I specialize in trauma with a certification of Clinical Counselor Trauma Professional 1 (CCTP-1). I work with a variety of diagnoses: PTSD, depression, anxiety, fears, abuse, substance abuse, and sexuality issues. Populations include adolescents, young adults, adults, the elderly, LGBTQ, sex offenders, and the developmentally challenged. I have worked with adolescents in different settings, shelter care, foster care, and group homes. I utilize CBT, Art, Games, and Narratives depending on the individual. Everyone is unique and one type of therapy may not work for another individual. A relationship is important to working with adolescents. Trying to navigate through the world as it is now can be extremely difficult. Couples counseling utilizing CBT, Art, Narratives, and homework creates knowledge and improves relationships. Honesty is important in working together for a better relationship. The mental health of each individual creates education and understanding. Setting boundaries with each other, learning to communicate, and utilizing active listening skills to be obtained. I am a Christian and give all the glory to God for bringing me to this place in my life. I feel I am guided in my work and focus on treating everyone with respect and dignity. I am culturally diverse in my approach and will not turn anyone away from doing counseling with me unless I feel I cannot help in any way. I believe God brings people together and if we are brought together, it must be a God thing. I am accepting of religions different than mine and consider myself spiritual rather than religious.

Hi, my name is Kristi Skeem, and have been in Counseling for over 15 years. I have a bachelors degree in Human Services Mgt., I have a Masters Degree in Counseling, and I have a doctorate degree in Business Administration with Industrial/Organizational Psychology specialization. I have worked with very diverse populations from those who are affluent and influential; and everyone in between. I have worked many years providing counseling inside with correctional populations with minimum, medium and maximum security populations, mental health and drug/alcohol agencies. I also am a public speaker for a variety of settings and events. I have walked along side of those in the counseling realm that have made life choices and/or committed crimes that shattered their life and others as well. We walk together each week, picking up life pieces, using strengths that still are within them; and starting a new life. I have also worked with influencers who are working and serving in high levels of our society, those who are in prominent roles, that struggle as other do with anxiety, stress, and transitions. I have worked with stay-at-home moms who are both winning and losing and experiencing feelings of both in their circumstances. Everyone has unique issues based on their personal circumstances, but also unique gifting and personal strengths that will help them to persevere through. I provide support for those struggling in their interpersonal relationships, preparing for relationships, or even restoring the relationship within themselves. I work with the more modern virtual vs reality identity crisis and/or disorders -that currently are not even found in the DSM-V as an official diagnosis. This is individuals who are struggling to find their way understanding their online persona vs their real-life reality. I work with individuals who have sex shame from both sides of victims to aggressors; including working with those who need freedom from pornography or other deviant behaviors. I use a Cognitive Behavioral approach to brief counseling to tackle life dilemmas. My treatment approach of cognitive behavioral therapy offers empowerment to individuals to take control of their life, understanding how core beliefs are developed, where they come from, and how they are generating thoughts, feelings and behaviors; and ultimately all outcomes. I support business leaders who might be struggling with their leadership, or other aspects of career growth. If you struggle with fear of facing daily life or the after life, let me help you. Existential after life concerns, feeling life's purpose is a huge concern for most individuals. I see my role here with you as a place of service, and I have a gift of helping and healing others through their circumstances. Invite me to come walk along in your journey and see what can be discovered about your purpose in making meaning in this life.

Hello, My name is Janell Jones, and I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor. I am excited to begin this journey with you. It is a big decision to enter therapy, and I am happy you have chosen me to help you. I completed my education with the University of Phoenix where I received my degree in clinical counseling. I like to use a variety of therapy modalities to benefit your therapy process including CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy), and Motivational Interviewing. My approach is trauma informed. I like clients to feel safe and welcome in session. My hope is to create space for you to dig deep and find the things that you need to work on the most. Becoming the most authentic version of yourself is key to happiness. I became a therapist to help others learn how to change maladaptive behaviors so their lives can be more manageable and enjoyable. I enjoy helping clients become the most authentic version of themselves so they can enjoy the life they are living. I enjoy reading, sewing and traveling.

Maybe you’ve gotten really good at pushing through, taking care of what needs to be done, showing up for everyone else, or telling yourself you’re fine, while underneath it all you may be feeling anxious, overwhelmed, disconnected, or exhausted. Maybe something difficult happened in your past that still affects you today, or you’re simply at a point where you know something needs to change but aren’t sure where to begin. Hi, I’m Kaylee, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC). I believe human beings have an innate capacity to heal. Trauma, difficult relationships, loss, and life experiences can sometimes disconnect us from ourselves and make it harder to trust what we’re feeling or what we need. Therapy can be a place to slow down, make sense of those experiences, and begin reconnecting with yourself. My approach is warm, compassionate, and nonjudgmental. You don’t need to have everything figured out before coming to therapy, and you don’t need to know exactly what to say. My role isn’t to “fix” you. Instead, we will work together to understand what you’re experiencing, notice patterns that may no longer be serving you, and gently build tools that help you feel more grounded and confident as you move forward. I have experience supporting adolescents and adults experiencing trauma and PTSD, anxiety, depression, stress, emotional overwhelm, relationship difficulties, and major life transitions. My background includes school-based counseling, supporting survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault, and providing therapy to refugees who have experienced war, displacement, trauma, and significant transitions. I practice primarily from a trauma-informed and person-centered perspective, with a deep respect for the connection between the mind and body. Sometimes we understand intellectually that we are safe or that something is over, yet the body continues to respond as though the threat is still present. Therapy can help us begin to notice, understand, and gently work with those responses rather than feeling controlled by them. Depending on your needs, our work may include grounding and somatic techniques, mindfulness, nervous system regulation, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), practical coping strategies, and exploration of the experiences and patterns influencing your life today. I tailor therapy to you rather than expecting you to fit into one particular approach. I am also trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), an evidence-based approach that can help people process traumatic or distressing experiences. When appropriate, we can explore whether EMDR might be helpful for your goals. Whether you are carrying something from the past, struggling with what is happening right now, or simply feeling stuck, you do not have to have the answers before beginning therapy. We can start exactly where you are.
