There are 9 of us therapists here at Monarch. We come from a variety of educational and professional backgrounds. There are a variety of specialties we provide and various populations/ages we serve. Please visit our website at www.monarchbh.org to read each of our brief bios. One of our specialties is Parent-Child Interaction Therapy. We find that PCIT is incredibly effective because we can give parents/caregivers the tools in the moment and the immediate opportunity to practice. We believe the parent/caregiver is by far the most influential person to effect change in their kiddos behavior.

With compassion and support, we will untether you from beliefs and negative records that have caused pain. You can be your true self, free. When we suffer from anxiety, depression, or feel stuck and not "motivated" or just can't "get it together," this isn't us broken or defective, it's our brain doing it's job, keeping us alive. It's coped in a way that is maladaptive. Luckily, we have resilient brains and neuro-plasticity. Therapy is an opportunity to reprocess and "change our brain." You have within you the ability to shift threat to thrive. With our aligned intentions, you'll access adaptive thinking and behavior.

When you consider your life, think in terms of possibility, rather than limitations. Effective counseling should provide a steady progression from confusion, uncertainty, and wounding toward healing, health and well-being. To offer this kind of therapy, I fine-tune my ear to your individual needs and your situation. Your solutions must fit with your principles and values. Simply put, I see no point in offering cookie-cutter answers. As a member of Your Team, I will help you uncover both creative and plausible solutions to seemingly impossible problems.
"Due to societal expectations of masculinity, men are less likely to talk to others about their feelings, so they suffer in silence".

As humans we were created with the miraculous ability to endure, heal and grow, even in the most adverse circumstances and conditions. I am committed to providing quality behavioral health care to individuals, couples or families wanting to make changes, and willing to utilize their unique resources to overcome their own challenges. Often times our various struggles cause us to lose focus and lack the ability to find our strengths, talents and purpose. I consider it a privilege to work with patients to find clarity and renewed strength to face their life circumstances.

I am an WA and ID licensed therapist and here to help. Often, because of trauma and stress, we might consciously or unconsciously disown parts of ourselves. We might grow to view certain coping skills or patterns as “bad” when ultimately, they most likely served an important purpose in our lives. I aim to help my clients explore themselves, part by part, with gentle curiosity. Through using a variety of experiential approaches, we will work together to heal these pieces, allowing us to become more integrated, free, and whole. Every individual is the expert of their own life and is wise, intuitive, and has the capacity to heal.
I facilitate a weekly therapeutic support group on Wednesdays from 5:30pm to 7pm. The foundation of the group focuses on being fun, positively social, and practically helpful. Our desired outcomes for participants are to develop a sense of belonging in a healthy social group, to identify personal challenges and strategies to overcome them, to learn healthy social and relationship skills, and to learn how to support others and how to be supported by others who have similar experiences. There is no cost, and the group is facilitated by Bradley Midgett, Owner of Alpine Behavioral Health.

FAQs - About Group Therapy and Support Groups
How can I find a support group in Ada County?
Search for nearby support groups by inputting your city, zip code, or the name of the group into the search bar. From there, you can filter to find a group that suits your needs, whether you are looking for support for a teenager, a group that focuses on a specific issue, such as depression, or a particular program type, such as one geared toward developing social skills. To navigate between locations within the same country, enter a new city or zip code into the search bar.
How does group therapy work?
Therapy groups are led by one or more therapists and serve to help people process their experiences and learn from others who understand their challenges firsthand. They can be based on a specific issue, such as addiction, grief, physical illnesses, parenting, and caregiving. They can involve a specific type of program or therapy, such as a social skills group or CBT group. They can also be specific to a particular population or community, such as teens or LGBTQ.
Support groups, like Alcoholics Anonymous, also focus on a specific issue, but are typically led by members with lived experiences and are less structured than therapy groups. Most therapy groups will meet for a fixed length of time with a consistent group of members, while many support groups meet for an indefinite period of time with members coming and going.

What are the benefits of group therapy?
Support groups help connect people with shared challenges or physical and mental health conditions. In a group setting, participants can receive support and feedback from peers and can acquire new skills, strategies and perspectives by listening to one another. Discussing your experience with someone who also has a cancer diagnosis, or whose son also struggles with addiction, for example, can help you feel less alone, reduce distress, find empathy and connection, and learn practical or medical information that has helped others. Group therapy can also be a more affordable option than individual therapy and just as effective.
Is group therapy as effective as individual therapy?
Support groups can be deeply valuable for both emotional support and/or treatment outcomes. It’s difficult to make a blanket statement on efficacy due to the many different types of support groups and conditions treated, but group therapy has been found to be just as effective as individual therapy in establishing long-term abstinence for conditions such as substance abuse, addiction and alcohol abuse.
How much does group therapy cost?
Group counseling is typically less expensive than individual counseling, with each session costing on average between $60 to $75. Meanwhile, individual therapy sessions can run anywhere from $100 to $200 and up, even after insurance. It is possible to find low-cost group therapy options and many therapists offer group sessions free of charge.
Does insurance cover group therapy?
As with individual therapy, many insurance companies do offer coverage for group therapy sessions. However, the coverage varies based on your insurance plan details and whether you choose an in-network or out-of-network mental healthcare provider. Individuals are encouraged to check with their insurance providers to verify coverage.
How long does group therapy last?
The length of a support group session is often one hour but can fall anywhere between 45 minutes and two hours. The amount of time that people remain in a support group varies based on their specific needs and goals and the type of therapy. Some individuals may seek a shorter-term group, such as a bereavement group, that may last between six and 20 weeks. Some may seek a longer-term group that lasts for a year or indefinitely.
What are the limitations of support groups?
Support groups have many benefits, but there are a few limitations as well. Support groups do not constitute formal therapeutic or medical treatment, and are not run by licensed mental health professionals, so some people may opt for group therapy or individual therapy instead. Additionally, support groups can depend on the other participants, so a disruptive individual has the potential to mar the group dynamic, and the anecdotal information shared may sometimes be unhelpful or inaccurate. Because it is a group setting, confidentiality can be more difficult to guard and participants receive less personalized attention than they would in an individual therapy session.
