At By the Brook Counseling, we understand how hard therapy can be. We are here to make it easier.

Hannemae works with dignity and intention to support each client she sees. She specializes in working with adolescents, adults, and couples. With an LMSW and receiving supervision from an LMFT, Hannemae is ready to help you begin your therapy journey! Contact us today to see availability for her schedule.

Safe Space

Currently located in downtown Coeur d’Alene, we are committed to providing a safe and comfortable space for all clients. It is vital to have a safe space in order to be vulnerable and emotionally ready for therapy. We are happy to provide any necessary accommodations at our interior location to make each client uniquely comfortable! We also provide telehealth services in the whole state of Idaho for those who are most comfortable at home, or whose schedule/location necessitates it.

We work with intention to support a range of clients. We specialize in treating adolescents for ADHD, anxiety, depression, school issues, and family conflict. We also specialize in treating adults with ADHD, anxiety, depression, PTSD, marital conflict, and life transitions. Most common models include Acceptance and Commitment, Cognitive Behavioral, Internal Family Systems, Gottman Method, Emotionally Focused, etc. We provide counseling for individual adults, individual minors, couples, premarital, and families.
