    Counseling Inc.

"Strive to fight your way forward and not be held down by the past." 

Let us help you on your journey by working along side you, to encourage and assist you with the tools to succeed.

I began my journey of helping others over 20 years ago after earning my undergraduate degree in Social Work. Since that time, I have worked with individuals and families impacted by the effect of abuse and neglect, including issues related to substance abuse and trauma. I earned my master’s degree in counseling from Northwest Nazarene University in 2018, with a specialization in marriage, couple, and family counseling. 

 As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I have training and experience working with adults and children impacted by domestic violence and sexual assault. I have also worked with couples and families experiencing interpersonal stressors related to communication problems, infidelity, and parent/child conflict. I take a trauma-informed and systemic approach to therapy by integrating models such as Internal Family Systems, Gottman Method, and Trauma-Informed CBT. I am trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) Therapy and ART (Accelerated Resolution Therapy), evidence-based techniques used to treat trauma, anxiety, and phobias.

It has been my life’s work to help others. For the past 20 years, I have worked in healthcare, child welfare, and the non-profit sector doing just that; coming alongside those in need in a variety of capacities. My love for all humans continues to motivate me to learn and grow every day. As a counselor, I not only integrate my own lived experiences, but my professional training, knowledge, and skillset to meet the client where they are and develop goals to heal and overcome adversity. 

My undergraduate degrees are in Philosophy and Social work with an emphasis in Human Rights. As a Licensed Master Social Worker, LMSW, I am passionate about creating a safe space for healing and am dedicated to empowering clients to see their strengths, abilities, and inherent value through a collaborative therapeutic approach.  I am trained in a number of therapeutic modalities including but limited to: EMDR, TF-CBT, CBT, MI, SFT, DBT, and specialize in acute and complex trauma.  

It is an honor and a privilege to serve teens (13-17), adults, couples, and families as a therapist. Together, we will Strive to enhance your human experience by healing the past, living in the present, and finding joy in the future.

Hi, my name is Logan Johnson. I am currently in my last year of the Social Work Master’s Program at Northwest Nazarene University. I did my undergraduate studies in Marriage and Family Relationships at Brigham Young University Idaho.
I have worked 8 years as a Victim Witness Coordinator for the Nampa Police Department. I have extensive experience in Child abuse, Domestic Violence and Sexual trauma. I have a passion for helping couples and families in need. I believe our greatest joy and fulfillment can come from our significant other, and I want to help others feel that joy even when it might seem impossible.

I am interested in working with couples, individuals, and families. 

I have been married 16 years, I have 4 amazing children, and I enjoy spending my free time outdoors with my wife and kids. I love life and all it brings, both good and bad. Trials have made me stronger and although there have been extremely rough times in my life, I find that it has all been for my benefit when I approach it as a growing experience. Help me to help you, in finding joy, and protecting what matters most.Type your paragraph here.

Title

​Tylene Channer, LCSW

 .

Counseling is about striving for progress and sustainable changes, not perfection. My name is Tylene and I am the owner and a therapist at Strive Counseling. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 24 years of experience in both social work and counseling settings, I can offer both experience and insight into life challenges. I currently provide counseling services for individuals (teens through adults), couples, and groups. I believe in making sure there is a good fit between the client and counselor and empowering people through focusing on their own inner strengths and abilities. I recognize that each person is unique in their own way and through the therapeutic process we will find what best helps you as an individual.

I use a variety of therapy techniques to address problems. I have been providing EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing) therapy for an often times quicker approach to trauma, anxiety, and stress for 15 years with high success rates. I am trained in ART (Accelerated Resolution Therapy) and I am also certified in hypnotherapy. I have extensive training in trauma focused-CBT, and a variety of other techniques. I am able to supervise professionals as a registered clinical supervisor.
