IN IDAHO
Existential Therapy
Helping you lead a more fulfilled and empowered life.
WHO AM I?
YOU HAVE AN INNATE CURIOSITY, AN URGE.
YOU QUESTION THE MEANING OF YOUR EXISTENCE AND IF THERE IS A MEANING AT ALL.
You’re on a mission, eager to discover who you really are, or if there is even a you to begin with. The very foundation you stand on seems wobbly or has possibly dissolved all together. You’re ready to dig deep and challenge your way of thinking.
In your search for truth, you crave more profound, meaningful conversations. What is truth? How will you know if and when you arrive? What is the meaning of life? Do you have a purpose? What is love? Is there a God?
You’re prepared to:
- Ponder questions and become a deeper thinker.
- Be open minded and explore different ways of thinking, feeling, and being.
- Understand yourself and the world around you in new and surprising ways.
- Discover your own inner truth and live more authentically.
- Journey into the unknown to uncover your true Self.
- Invest in self-exploration, knowing whatever you’re willing to commit to will return a hundredfold.
There’s more to life than meets the eye.
“As a child, I felt myself to be alone, and I am still, because I know things and must hint at things which others apparently know nothing of, and for the most part do not want to know. Loneliness does not come from having no people about one, but from being unable to communicate the things that seems important to oneself, or from holding certain views which others find inadmissible.” ~ Carl Gustav Jung
One of the most extraordinary and rewarding journeys you can embark upon is the journey of self-discovery. However, for many, taking an existential expedition isn’t their first idea of “fun” or gratifying. Removing the veil can be frightening, not because of what lies on the other side, but because what you’ve told yourself may or may not fundamentally exist.
You may be curious and want to know what lies beyond the veil. Or, you’re on a precipice of change, desiring extra support before you take your next steps. For some, change is happening gradually. For others, there’s a drastic and sometimes unsettling shift. Yet, for all beings, an upheaval comes when we begin to ask the inevitable questions. Who and what am I? What is my purpose? And where do I go from here?
In counseling, I invite you to enter the unknown to unearth the answers you seek. I will guide you to ask more profound questions and reflect honestly, without judgment. Together, we will embrace fear and uncertainty as you discover a deeper world within and expand your perception, abilities, and so much more.

Frequently Asked Questions
HOW DO I KNOW IF THIS WILL WORK FOR ME?
While I cannot offer absolute assurances, I want to emphasize that I firmly believe in the potential for growth, healing, and transformation. These positive changes are a constant presence in my daily work, evident in the progress and improved relationships of my clients.
Existential therapy, a variant of conversational therapy, is designed to assist in comprehending your place within the world. This approach may involve delving into your life philosophies, actively addressing profound questions to enhance your grasp of life’s significance, and employing creative outlets like art and writing to convey your thoughts and emotions. The primary objective of existential therapy is to foster personal accountability, self-awareness, and a deeper understanding of your actions, choices, and overall presence.
HOW DO I KNOW IF THIS WILL WORK FOR ME?
While I cannot offer absolute assurances, I want to emphasize that I firmly believe in the potential for growth, healing, and transformation. These positive changes are a constant presence in my daily work, evident in the progress and improved relationships of my clients.
Consistently, research has emphasized the pivotal role of the client-therapist relationship as a key factor in predicting successful therapy outcomes. It’s for this reason that I provide a complimentary consultation, allowing both of us to determine whether I am the right fit to support your journey toward a positive outcome.
HOW LONG IS THERAPY?
The duration of your therapeutic journey is influenced by several variables, such as your availability, the dynamics of your daily life, the specific nature and urgency of your concerns, and your active participation in the therapy process between our sessions. Existing research indicates that most therapy clients typically experience substantial clinical progress within 12 to 15 sessions, and I hold similar expectations for our collaboration. Some individuals successfully complete their therapeutic goals within this timeframe, while others discover a continued benefit in the therapeutic process and choose to extend their sessions. My primary objective is to assist you in achieving your goals as promptly as possible.
WILL A DIAGNOSIS BE GIVEN?
You have the option to opt out of receiving a diagnosis. Diagnoses will be given solely upon your request, primarily for the purpose of facilitating reimbursement claims with your healthcare insurance provider. Any diagnostic information will be the subject of conversations between you and your therapist, serving the objectives of treatment planning and potential referrals to relevant specialists.
