Welcome. Searching for therapy services can be a difficult and intimidating experience, so I congratulate you for getting started! Feel free to send me an email with any questions you may have. I work from a person-centered approach where you, the client, is the expert in your own therapy journey and I am here to support along the way. Together we can figure out what is needed to help you achieve your therapy goals. In my practice, Cultivando Wellness, I strive to empower the community with education and therapy services to break the stigma of mental health. I work with people from the ages of 11 years old to adults.

It has always been my passion to help those gain their full potential in life as I too have been through many challenges like my clients. I am dedicated to helping individuals overcome anxiety, depression, trauma, mood disorders, marriage challenges, stress-management, crisis management & so much more. I not only have personal experience with these but also have clinical experience as well. I help clients meet their goals by examining the connection between how they think, feel (emotionally & physically), behave, & interact in their various environments.

As a trauma-focused therapist and healer I work from a holistic approach to integrate mind, body and spirit with my clients. I believe that we are all living out of our perspective of our story and with each new day comes the opportunity to understand and develop that story more. I deeply understand the need for attachment with ourselves and others, so I consider it an honor to walk alongside my clients and help them gain insight into their stories. I work with adults, children, teens and couples to help them with a variety of issues based on trust and connection.

Making the decision to seek help shows both strength and vulnerability which is the first step to making positive changes in your life. I have worn many hats as an educator, school counselor, and for the last three years a licensed therapist. I use this experience to collaborate with individuals to develop goals based on their own desires and expectations. Understanding there are life issues that can inhibit these goals, I collaboratively explore the needs of an individual through a hands-on, not one size all fits, safe, non-judgmental approach in counseling using strength-based strategies to meet individuals where they are.

I strive to create a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment that fosters vulnerability, courage, and change. With over 15 years of experience providing mental health treatment, I practice from a trauma-informed lens, one rooted in attachment and social learning theory, and leverages techniques from several modalities, including CBT, DBT, and MI.

Anxiety and depression can make you feel so overwhelmed that it takes a toll on your day-to-day functioning and relationships. Feeling lost and are unsure where to go to next? We’ve all gone to work and put on a face that everything is okay – when deep down – you just want to isolate. Overwhelming feelings can make it difficult to make decisions. As a solution-focused therapist utilizing cognitive, play, and dialectical behavior therapy, I am here to help you work and sort through how you’re feeling, make the necessary steps to repair relationships and feel more centered.

As a licensed professional counselor my goal is to help clients who are seeking guidance and understanding. Once YOU make a decision to start therapy it is important that YOU agree to commit to fully participate in YOUR journey filled with changes and challenges. I believe I can walk along side a client in his/her journey by first developing a plan that you can commit to. Whether it be in recovery, building healthy relationships, healing through events in your life. Additionally, I can help you understand family dynamics and/or to help a parent learn how to be the best advocate for their child.

Life is not void of pain, conflict, or uncertainty, yet sometimes these experiences leave us hopelessly waiting for the ending to be rewritten. I’m humbled to be able to listen to clients’ stories, instill hope into their narrative, and find greater strength and resilience in the next chapter. I aim to support those who’ve been silenced or conditioned to believe that counseling is not for them; your story is valuable and will not go unheard. I use an eclectic theoretical approach to meet individual client needs, and provide the therapeutic support needed to help them retell their story in a way that brings about healing and purpose.

Hello! I'm the founder of Arizona Connections Play Therapy, and I am so excited you're here! I absolutely love working with kids three to twelve through the magic that is play therapy. Play is the language of our children. Kids learn who they are through their primary relationships in their lives. With one adult and one child, sessions involve a variety of structured games, engaging & challenging interactions, & nurturing moments to help caregivers understand their child’s thoughts, feelings, and actions on a more intimate level. I also work with clients through trauma as well as provide consultation to other licensed practitioners.

Hello! It takes bravery and strength to recognize you need support and to take those steps to begin therapy. It would be my privilege to come alongside you, offering encouragement and support. I have been practicing counseling for over 15 years. My passion is working with teenagers and adults. I specialize in helping with depression, anxiety, OCD, ADHD, anger, self-esteem, peer and family relationships, social skills, stress, boundaries, parenting, gender identity and sexual orientation, work and school challenges and life changes.

So glad you're here. I'm accepting, flexible and nonjudgmental. When deep emotional wounds and needs are tended to, we often function better because we feel better. We may find that we embrace unhelpful beliefs about ourselves and others after experiencing difficulties. Befriending and/or challenging the inner critic is essential and enlightening; this process will even be fun at times! Thoughts, feelings, behaviors, relationships, and environment are dynamically intertwined. There are several entry points of interruption to strategically approach life’s challenges, or “opportunities for excellence”. Small steps are preferred!

It might seem impossible but, you can learn to love yourself. I provide a rich environment for learning and exploration of what is important to you so you can refocus your life and move forward with intention. Through counseling, you can learn to cooperate with your mind and body. With more than three decades in the fields of special education, parenting education, and mental health, I work with individuals, couples, and families to identify their specific needs and provide education to support progress toward their personal goals.

We are always accepting new clients! Our team of therapists are experienced and trained to help with anxiety, depression, OCD, self-esteem, anger, LGBTQ+ and gender identity, trauma, self-harming, divorce, communication, social skills, grief & loss, addiction, eating disorders, boundaries, codependency, parent-child relationships, conflict resolution, school issues, suicidal ideation, ADHD, nightmare disorder, stress, work challenges, financial issues, etc.

Hi! My name is J’mi (Jami) Dean and I am currently working as a marriage and family therapy intern. As I’m working to finish my master’s degree, I keep thinking of all the different transitions life can bring. Some are joyful, like graduating from high school or getting married. Others just happen as we grow older—our kids leave home or we start caring for our aging parents. Transitions like divorce, trauma, or mental health challenges are unexpected and can be incredibly painful. Any of these transitions can make us feel stuck. The right therapist can be a powerful ally in working through all of life's challenges.

Life can become really heavy and you don’t have to do it alone. It is important to me that I earn your trust and create a safe environment that will allow you to be authentic in the therapy room. I graduated from Arizona State University’s Masters Marriage and Family Therapy program. I am trained to work with individuals, couples, and families.

In today's fast pace and overwhelming world it can be easy to find ourselves dealing with thoughts and emotions that are difficult to manage. As your therapist we will work on exploring the root of your feelings and build skills to help manage them for more positive outcomes.
