About Wendy

Wendy Weston is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Idaho who brings a focused, compassionate approach to helping people navigate addiction, trauma, relationship challenges, and a wide range of life stressors. She earned a master’s degree in Rehabilitation Counseling from the University of Idaho and practices with an emphasis on collaboration - partnering with clients to explore thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and to take actions that support healthier outcomes.

With eight years of experience treating addictions, along with prior roles that include more than a decade as a first responder and extensive work in the child welfare system, she offers perspective grounded in real-world experience and evidence-based care. Wendy works with diverse concerns including anxiety, depression, grief, intimacy and relationship difficulties, parenting and family issues, ADHD, bipolar disorder, sleep and eating concerns, and compassion fatigue, as well as challenges related to adoption, foster care, and codependency.

Her practice is client-centered and adaptable, drawing on a range of evidence-based methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Solution-Focused work, Problem-Solving strategies, and Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction. She is a member of the American Counseling Association and practices in alignment with the Idaho Board of Licensed Professional Counselors and Therapists and the American Counseling Association Code of Ethics. Wendy aims to create a hopeful, collaborative environment that supports growth and meaningful change.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care with Wendy Weston

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients clarify what matters most to them and commit to actions that align with those values while learning to accept difficult thoughts and feelings. It is often useful for anxiety, depression, addiction, and life transitions. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on providing a supportive, nonjudgmental environment where the client is seen as the expert on their own experience; this approach fosters self-exploration, empowerment, and improved self-esteem. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) emphasizes identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors through practical strategies and skills, and it can be effective for mood concerns, anxiety, trauma-related distress, and coping challenges.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Wendy works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their goals, preferences, and needs. That collaborative process may blend techniques rather than rely on a single model, with adjustments as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can be scheduled as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging - which can help people fit care into busy lives, maintain continuity when schedules change, and access support from where they are. Licensed professionals can use these formats to provide consistent, goal-oriented care while adapting to each client's communication style and availability.
