About Holly
Holly Recher is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who helps people facing addiction, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and major life changes. She names these concerns up front and focuses on practical steps people can use right away. Holly uses trauma-informed care and addiction recovery strategies to guide sessions.
She draws on techniques that help with emotional regulation and coping skills. Conversations are direct but compassionate, aimed at helping clients notice patterns and try new approaches.
How Holly works
Her work also addresses attachment wounds, abandonment issues, body image concerns, caregiver stress, codependency, and communication problems. Holly supports people dealing with dissociation, divorce and separation, eating and food-related issues, and the mixed challenges that come with co-occurring disorders. She has six years of experience as an LPC in Idaho.
That background includes individual and group work plus exposure to family systems and relapse prevention methods. Holly blends practical tools with attention to feelings so people can make steady progress. Sessions tend to focus on skills you can practice between meetings, like emotional regulation, mindful coping, and sober living strategies.
The therapist works collaboratively to set goals and track small wins, with the aim of improving day-to-day functioning and long-term recovery.

Online support options
Evidence-informed approaches for online recovery and healing
Holly commonly uses trauma-focused methods to help people process and reduce the impact of past hurt. That work often involves identifying triggers, learning grounding techniques, and creating safety plans to manage distress. She also uses motivational interviewing to support people who are working on addiction or behavior change; this approach focuses on building motivation and clarifying personal goals in a nonjudgmental way.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss options, try techniques together, and adjust methods based on the client's goals and responses. Clients help decide what feels most useful and what to prioritize in sessions.
Online therapy offers practical benefits for this work. Video calls let the therapist and client interact face to face for skills practice and emotional check-ins. Phone sessions are a good option when bandwidth is limited or a simpler check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging can support short updates, coping reminders, or quick reflections between sessions. These formats give flexibility so people can fit therapy into busy schedules and maintain steady contact with a licensed professional.
