About Wendy
Wendy Weston is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Idaho. She brings eight years of counseling experience and a practical, down-to-earth approach to sessions. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, addiction, and self esteem concerns among other challenges. Wendy aims to create a space where people can feel heard and begin to make changes that matter to them.
Wendy earned a master’s degree in Rehabilitation Counseling from the University of Idaho. Her background includes time as a first responder and work within the child welfare system, which informs how she responds to crisis, trauma, and complex life situations. That experience also shaped her interest in supporting people facing caregiving stress, grief, and recovery from substance use.
Her style is client-centered and compassionate. Sessions involve talking through thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and then trying practical steps to test new approaches. She uses tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy to address unhelpful thinking and to build meaningful action.
Wendy also draws on dialectical behavior therapy skills and mindfulness practices to help with emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and staying grounded during difficult moments. These methods are adapted to each person’s needs rather than applied the same way for everyone. She emphasizes partnership in the work and helps people set clear, achievable goals.
People who connect with Wendy can expect straightforward language, steady support, and a focus on day-to-day changes. She encourages prospective clients to consider what they want from therapy and to use that as a guide during early sessions.
