Wendy Weston

Wendy Weston is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Idaho who uses mindfulness as a foundation in her work. She emphasizes practical steps and calm, attentive presence to help people manage stress and addiction and to find steadier footing during hard times.

Wendy has eight years as an LPC and more than a decade of related experience in first response and child welfare. That background shaped her approach to crisis, trauma, and grief. She brings straightforward, real-world perspective to sessions and aims to make therapy feel useful from the first meetings.

Her style is client-centered and compassionate. Sessions focus on understanding thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and then trying small, practical changes. She blends Mindfulness Therapy with approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and other evidence-based techniques to match each person’s needs.

Wendy has worked with people facing addictions, mood disorders, anxiety, relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting stress, ADHD, and many other challenges listed in her specialties. She aims to partner with clients so they feel hopeful and empowered to change patterns that cause pain.

To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to the therapist’s availability. Sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time, and costs vary with location and therapist availability.

How mindfulness and evidence-based methods translate online

Mindfulness Therapy helps people notice thoughts and bodily sensations without judgment and build steady attention. It is often used to reduce reactivity to stress, improve sleep patterns, and support recovery from addictive behaviors.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and taking small committed steps toward them while learning to accept difficult internal experiences. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks down unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns into manageable parts and teaches skills to shift them; it is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. The therapist collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences. That means trying tools, checking how they feel, and adjusting the plan together over time.

Confirm the session formats available before booking, since specific delivery methods are not listed in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let people attend from a familiar environment. Licensed professionals tailor techniques so exercises and skills can be practiced between sessions and applied to everyday routines.
