Effective July 1, 2024, we will no longer be accepting Idaho Medicaid. We understand the desperate need in our community, but unfortunately upcoming changes within the State are making it next to impossible to continue providing care. Sliding scale options are available, and we are happy to arrange something that will work financially with your family.
Cultivating happier and healthier children in Bonner County.
Children provide the greatest joys in life along with the greatest challenges. It is our mission at Summit to provide your child with exceptional mental health services and to strengthen family relationships.
Our Services
Play Therapy
“Play is the child’s natural medium of self-expression”
- Virginia Axline
Stephanie is a Registered Play Therapist and is trained in techniques to allow your child a space to process big emotions and trauma, develop skills to manage their emotions, encourage self-esteem and confidence, and to improve family relationships.
Family Counseling
Family provides the foundation for your child to grow and develop. Strengthening that family unit and conquering obstacles together is a crucial step in improving your child’s well-being. We work with parents to develop the skills, knowledge and ability to improve connections with their child and offer increased support during difficult times.
Talk Therapy & Expressive Therapies
With older children and teens, we utilize a person-centered approach and incorporate forms of expressive therapy, including art therapy techniques and sandtray techniques. These techniques are helpful in identifying and processing life difficulties, emotions, and trauma. Through the client-therapist relationship, I will work with your child to navigate through life’s challenges and solve problems.
Areas of Focus
We help children overcome many difficulties including changes in behavior, sadness, anxiety, frequent tantrums, social withdrawal, difficulty forming relationships, changes in the family, death, divorce, trauma, foster care/adoption, abuse, and other major life changes.
