We offer individual therapy both in-person at our offices in Boise, Meridian, Ketchum, and Hailey, Idaho, and online through secure telehealth sessions. Whether you prefer face-to-face counseling or the flexibility of virtual therapy, we are here to support your unique needs.

Individual counseling, also known as psychotherapy, is a dedicated space where you can explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences in a safe, confidential, and compassionate environment. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, or life transitions, therapy provides the tools and support needed to foster self-awareness, emotional resilience, and meaningful change.

Our approach is rooted in relational, embodied, and experiential therapy, going beyond surface-level insights to facilitate deep healing. We believe that every individual is unique, and our therapists tailor each session to your personal needs, values, and goals. Through this collaborative process, you can gain clarity, develop healthier coping strategies, and cultivate a greater sense of well-being.

Committed relationships can be one the most challenging and at the same time most rewarding part of our lives. Intimate relationships provide a mirror for us, often reminding us of our deepest and most painful memories. Ultimately, when we are hurt in relationship, we must also find ways to heal in relationship.

Often, we end up feeling triggered by our partner and cycling through old patterns without knowing how to do things differently. In order for a relationship to work, both people must be committed to working on themselves and their relationship.

Couples therapy is helpful for sorting through those issues. Our therapists help couples understand how and where they learned “to do” relationships. Then we support clients to establish new, healthy ways of being in relationship with each other. The ultimate goal being to relax the reactive states that are so often triggered and move into true intimacy. When this happens, you will thrive as a couple, and as an individual. We operate on the idea that couples provide support, care, and primary attachment for each other.

Children of all ages, from toddlers to adolescents, can benefit from counseling.

Ultimately, child/adolescent therapy aims to help children work through their emotions, increase their capacity for self-regulation, and facilitate a secure attachment with their caregivers. The overarching goal for them to live normal healthy lives without the lasting effects of fear, confusion, anxiety, or trauma.

Many of the issues children face mimic the issues adults face in their day-to-day lives including stress, anxiety, depression, and grief. The aim of child therapy is to help children and their parents clearly understand the issues they are experiencing and/or the trauma that has occurred – in a way they can be processed and integrated.

When a child’s emotional and psychological distress are left untreated, it can negatively impact his/her educational aspirations, developmental milestones, and at times, can persist well into adulthood. All this being said, a child’s problems do not exist in a vacuum; they exist, and will likely need to be addressed, within the context of the family system (see below).

Therapeutic issues rarely occur in a vacuum. They commonly require being addressed within a whole family system. With a family, everyone has some type of a role that contributes to a (dysfunctional) system. We all start this life with a family, whether that family is composed of blood relatives, adopted parents, a close-knit neighborhood, or a foster family. This family that we acquire when we are born influences every aspect of our lives, from our first moments to our last.

Family therapy or family counseling is a form of treatment that is designed to address specific issues affecting the health and functioning of a family. It can be used to help a family through a difficult period, a major transition, or mental or in family members. Family therapy views individuals’ problems in the context of the larger unit: the family “system.” The assumption of this type of therapy is that problems cannot be successfully addressed or solved without understanding the dynamics of the “system.”

Like all other forms of family therapy the specific technique used will vary according to your unique situation. Your therapist may work with different members of your family at different times. For example, your therapist may work with the coaching parents and separately work with their teenage daughter in an effort to create more health and safety within the family system. It may also be recommended that different parts of your family be shared between therapists to offer a greater container of support.

Additionally, we may work with different members of a family. For example, your therapist may work with coaching parents and separately working with their teenager in an effort to create more health and safety within the family system. Alpine integrative Wellness is experienced with working out systems issues and roles within a family. Often, we will work with the entire family together. The easiest way to see an issue is to see it playing out in person, in real time.

EMDR is an evidence-based psychotherapy designed to help individuals heal from traumatic experiences, anxiety, and distressing life events. Unlike traditional talk therapy, EMDR uses guided eye movements or other forms of bilateral stimulation to help the brain process and integrate painful memories. This process reduces the emotional charge of past experiences so you can move forward with greater calm and clarity.

During EMDR, your therapist will help you identify specific memories or triggers that continue to cause distress. Through a structured and collaborative process, these memories are reprocessed so they lose their intensity and no longer interfere with your present life. Many clients experience meaningful relief in fewer sessions compared to other therapeutic methods.

Our licensed clinicians are trained in EMDR and tailor each session to your individual needs and pace. Whether you are recovering from a single traumatic event or addressing long-term emotional patterns, EMDR offers a path toward emotional healing and resilience.

Somatic Experiencing is a body-based approach to healing trauma, stress, and emotional dysregulation. It helps individuals restore balance to their nervous system by tuning into the body’s natural ability to release tension and resolve the physical effects of stress and trauma. Rather than focusing solely on thoughts or memories, SE works through awareness of bodily sensations to support lasting healing from the inside out.

In Somatic Experiencing sessions, your therapist will guide you in noticing subtle physical cues, sensations, and impulses that reflect how your body holds and responds to stress. Through gentle tracking and regulation techniques, you learn to safely release stored energy and restore your body’s innate sense of safety and equilibrium.

Our clinicians are trained in Somatic Experiencing and tailor each session to your unique experience and pace. Whether you’re working through trauma or seeking to feel more grounded and connected, SE offers a gentle yet powerful path to restore calm, vitality, and well-being.

Internal Family Systems (IFS) is a compassionate, evidence-based approach to therapy that helps you understand and heal the different “parts” within yourself. Rather than seeing thoughts, emotions, or behaviors as problems to eliminate, IFS views them as parts that carry valuable roles or protective functions developed through life experiences. The goal of IFS is to help you access your core Self—a calm, wise, and grounded inner state—so you can bring understanding and harmony to your internal world.

In IFS sessions, your therapist guides you in identifying and connecting with various parts of yourself that may hold pain, fear, or self-criticism. Through curiosity and compassion, you learn how to unburden these parts and restore balance, leading to greater clarity, confidence, and emotional freedom.

Our clinicians are trained in IFS and provide a supportive environment for you to explore your inner experience at your own pace. Whether you’re seeking relief from past pain or striving for deeper self-understanding, IFS offers a transformative pathway toward healing and wholeness.

The Psychobiological Approach to Couples Therapy (PACT) is an attachment-based, neuroscience-informed model that helps couples build stronger, more secure, and resilient relationships. PACT integrates principles from attachment theory, developmental neuroscience, and arousal regulation to help partners understand and respond to each other in ways that promote safety, trust, and lasting connection.

In PACT sessions, your therapist helps you and your partner identify and change the unconscious patterns that lead to conflict or disconnection. By exploring how each partner’s nervous system and early attachment experiences influence reactions in the present, couples learn to better regulate emotions, repair ruptures quickly, and maintain closeness even during stress or disagreement.

Our therapists are trained in the PACT model and create a dynamic, experiential environment where both partners learn to attune to each other in real time. Whether you’re facing ongoing challenges or looking to enhance an already strong relationship, PACT offers a clear and effective framework for building a secure and thriving partnership.

Neurofeedback is a gentle, non-invasive approach that helps your brain learn to function at its best. By using real-time feedback on your brainwave activity, it trains the brain to regulate itself more efficiently—much like physical exercise strengthens the body. During a session, sensors monitor your brain’s electrical activity while you engage with visual or auditory feedback that guides your brain toward healthier patterns.

Over time, this process can lead to improved focus, emotional balance, and overall mental clarity. Many people use neurofeedback to support treatment for anxiety, depression, ADHD, sleep difficulties, and stress-related conditions. Others find it enhances mood stability, resilience, and cognitive performance.

The result is often a calmer, more focused, and more flexible mind—helping you feel more like yourself and function at your best.
