About Wendy

Wendy Weston is a Licensed Professional Counselor with a master of science in Rehabilitation Counseling from the University of Idaho. She holds an LPC license issued by the Idaho Bureau of Occupational Licenses (LPC#6747) and also previously held a social work license (LSW#24010). As a member of the American Counseling Association, she follows the ethical standards set by both the Idaho licensing board and the national association.

Weston brings a varied professional background to her therapeutic work, including 13 years as a first responder and a decade of experience within the child welfare system. Over the past eight years she has focused on treating addictions, and she has experience working with LGBTQ+ individuals and families. These roles inform a practical, trauma-aware perspective that values both safety and resilience.

Her stance in therapy is client-centered and compassionate. She partners with clients to explore thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and encourages intentional action toward meaningful change. To match each person’s needs she draws on evidence-based methods including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Solution-Focused strategies, problem-solving techniques, and Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction. Weston frames therapy as a collaborative process aimed at development, growth, and healthier ways of coping and living.

Therapeutic approaches and convenient online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most to them and to take committed steps toward those values while learning to relate differently to difficult thoughts and feelings. ACT is often used for anxiety, stress, and life transitions.

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship where the therapist follows the client’s lead and supports self-exploration and personal growth. This approach is helpful for building self-esteem, improving relationships, and processing emotion.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. CBT is commonly applied to anxiety, depression, unhealthy coping behaviors, and problems with sleep or concentration.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Wendy Weston works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adapts strategies as progress is made.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging - which can make it easier to fit appointments into busy schedules, maintain continuity of care, and access licensed professionals from home or other locations.
