Dr. Ann Maureen McCaughan

Idaho, Idaho - Licensed Professional Counselor
Online
In Person

I have a Masters and PhD in Counseling and Counselor Education, with over 18 years of experience in the field as a counselor, supervisor, and counselor educator. I was initially drawn to counseling to work with young adults in transition over the college years, but quickly became interested in working with people throughout all stages of the lifespan. I believe in helping people to live satisfied, authentic, and genuine lives and strive to help clients set and achieve goals in getting there! I believe that the client is the best expert on their own lives, and I am here to be a sounding board for you as you consider what changes you want to make to increase satisfaction and success in your life. You will find my approach gentle, but direct, as I help you to identify ineffective behaviors and habits. I have experience working with addiction, anxiety, trauma, stress, relationship issues, identity issues, and career/lifestyle goals, to name a few. I am committed to providing a counseling approach that respects your personal values and integrates those into the work we do together. I currently reside and teach in the Pacific Northwest region (Washington State) as well as work with clients in Illinois and Idaho. In addition to my work as a clinician, I am a full-time professor of counseling, which allows me to remain current in regards to counseling best practices and resources, and am constantly adding to my own knowledge base, which benefits my clinical work with clients. I look forward to the opportunity to work with you!

Jonathan ‘Riley’ Murdock

Idaho, Idaho - Clinical Social Worker/therapist
Online

I've been working as a social worker for the past 13 years. I'm a big believer in strength-centered therapy. My goal is be 100% in your corner. It's the coolest thing. When you have someone that is 100% in your corner, with no judgment- then that gives you a new kind of freedom. Being free to really figure out all this ...stuff... Why we are the way we are, why we self-sabotage, why we feel guilty or ashamed. Then we can get on to the good stuff - how do we change. Just thinking of being a different way feels overwhelming right? Well it all comes down to Baby Steps. Just like in building a muscle, we put it under a little more stress than it's used to, (or time under tension as I like to think about it) and then give it space and time to relax. Most of us struggle in these two areas. Either we feel flattened by the huge amount of stress were under, or we feel utterly incapable of handling the littlest thing. Very few of us are in the perimeter of eustress (that desirable and elusive point of positive, challenging, rewarding stress). And what about time for recovery?! Without time built in for recovery, our muscles work themselves until they break apart. But with too much time in recovery, they get lethargic and weak. We are exactly the same way. We keep justifying pushing ourselves a little harder a little longer and unto a myriad of physical and emotional problems. I get it. I've been there. Some days I'm still there. Anyway, where was I? Right yup I remember. (Clears throat) I also practice motivational interviewing, basically the skill to help you figure out what you're going to do, and then do it. It really just speeds up the natural process by like 6 months. I'm a trauma therapist specialized in IRRT (Imaging rescripting reprocessing therapy). Which is great for feelings of shame, guilt, abuse, nightmares, and kids. Sometimes when you do trauma therapy there are unintentional skeletons that come out. IRRT is good at minimizing this. It's also good at getting results, often in as little as one session. Let's see what else, I'm very visual, I'm very ADHD, I use a lot of metaphors. In my mind if I can see it, then I can explain it, and I can also remember it forever. Not everyone else operates like this, but a good portion of us do. Lastly, I want you to know that this is not just a job for me. Nor is it a calling. It's kind of... Well, Fun. We are all journeying through our own life puzzles. And there are so many clues just everywhere to help us find our way!

Dannette Vest

Idaho, Idaho - Clinical Social Worker/therapist
Online

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 13 years of clinical experience supporting individuals and couples through life’s challenges with compassion, clarity, and care. My work is grounded in the belief that meaningful change begins with self-understanding and grows through thoughtful, collaborative exploration. I understand that exploring unfamiliar or uncomfortable parts of ourselves can feel daunting. In therapy, I aim to provide a supportive and nonjudgmental space where you can safely examine patterns, behaviors, and experiences that may no longer be you. Together, this awareness becomes the foundation for developing new perspectives, healthier coping strategies, and lasting growth. My clinical work is informed by evidenced-based modalities, including Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), in which I am certified, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), Gottman Method Couples Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), to include CBT for Insomnia, Depression, and Anxiety. I integrate these approaches thoughtfully to meet your unique needs, whether addressing trauma, post-traumatic stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or life transitions. I approaches therapy as a collaborative partnership—one that honors your pace, values, and goals. My goal is to offer a warm, thoughtful, and grounded environment that helps you feel supported. I have a strong passion for working with couples and individuals navigating trauma, post-traumatic stress, anxiety, and depression. I look forward to walking alongside you on your journey toward healing, growth, and a more fulfilling life.
