Therapists in Camelback East, Phoenix, AZ

** Book an appointment with me here: https://bit.ly/3Ee0nhO** I believe everyone has the ability and desire to have an extraordinary life. I see therapy as a healing conversation that provides clients with a safe, non-judgmental place to express their challenges, and helps them to rediscover their strengths, talents and resources. My intention is to create a collaborative partnership to support my clients in finding solutions that are consistent with their values and beliefs. Whatever it is that brings you to counseling, together we can overcome self-doubt and obstacles to create the healthiest version of yourself.

We are a Clinical Mental Health Counseling & Consulting Private Practice specializing in working with children, teenagers, and adults struggling from behavioral & emotional issues including; mood challenges, relationship issues, anxiety, depression, & trauma. We provide coaching and consulting services to individuals in personal and professional settings. As well as, providing Clinical Mental Health Professionals with supervision and consultation.

I am sorry for the pain or challenge that has brought you to seek therapy. I care deeply about helping people fully inhabit their pain, learn how to explore/ "be" with it, and use it to live fuller, bigger lives. I provide my clients a supportive, nonjudgmental environment to uncover the truth about their current experience, identify their wants/needs, and ultimately live with committed action in the service of their values. Having 20+ years of experience with specialized therapies of DBT, EMDR, and ACT, I can provide you with a multitude of interventions/techniques that support either greater acceptance or change in your life.

Hi there, I work with everyone from young adults to empty nesters to show up in their relationships more authentically-I especially help with the challenge of raising kids and individuating from parents. I support people with differences to use moments of potential tension to get curious instead of furious or fearful, building a life they want to come home to - with skills that transfer to all their relationships especially the one they have with themself. If you're ready to grow with the support of someone who gets where things get tricky, is reliable but also relatable, then give me a call.

I have an informal practice focusing on real world solutions and living the life you have always wanted. The biggest predictor of positive outcomes is the strength of the relationship between therapist and client, so I encourage you to get started today by giving me a call and scheduling a free 10 minute consultation. I hold licensure as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Certified Mental Health Professional with experience in both adult/adolescent therapy and crisis intervention.

My expertise is providing counseling services to children, adolescents, adults and families who are seeking trauma healing and resolution, desire to exploring more vulnerability, improving boundaries, developing a more secure identity and sense of self, shame resiliency, and learning to relate in a more compassionate way. With each client and/or family, I hope to provide a collaborative, peaceful, and confidential environment so healing can begin and ease can become a way of life.

I am an attachment based psychologist. I specialize in traumatic loss, marriage and family, bereavement, Play therapy, Parenting coaching, EMDR, and Somatic Experiencing, child, adolescents, and adult and relationship therapy. I am a solution-focused, brief therapist. The client sets the goals and we work collaboratively, using the skills and strategies mentioned above to achieve his or her goals. I try to create a warm, caring, safe relationship in which my client can discover his or her answers within. I also write evaluations and do expert, witnessing in wrongful death suits, for those who have lost a loved one

Crises and life transitions tend to spotlight where we need to grow. I have two typical clients. One is interested in ongoing psychotherapy and has often (though not necessarily) been in therapy before. The other is looking for shorter-term work to sort through a decision or transition. Depression, anxiety, "stuckness" or "emptiness" often inspire people to call. I work with adults of all backgrounds, but have niche experience with many chronic illnesses, including long COVID, MCAS, EDS and cancer; neurodiversity-affirming work with autism & ADHD; older adults & aging; and healthcare & mental health professionals.

I work with individual adults (18+) managing a variety of issues, including trauma and PTSD, spiritual/existential issues and concerns, creative blocks, mood disorders, anxiety disorders, adjustment disorders, and career/life path development.

I hold National Board Certification as a Clinical Psychologist in AZ. Psychotherapy with me helps you discover your preconscious tools. These tools improve your life's journey toward self-actualization. You may be struggling with stress or matters of the heart. You may have a psychological diagnosis for moods, anxiety, trauma or depression. I consult with high functioning clients, such as the very successful or aspiring professionals who want to improve personal strengths and coping skills. Forensic consults are seen through lawyers or Courts. Telepsychology is for counseling now. EMDR is on hold, as no in person help occurs .

"Serenity comes when you trade expectations for acceptance." "Letting go" is often the best form of acceptance. If you struggle with holding on to grief, depression, anger, anxiety, frustration, etc... I am here to help. Experiences can lead to negative expectations & perceptions of self and life. I work with clients to accept negative experiences without accepting those experiences as their value and/or identity. We work together, in a caring and safe environment, to identify barriers in life and learn and implement skills that improve mental, emotional, and behavioral health, as we begin the process of living a Quality Life.

My view on therapy is very simple, though not always easy: 'through relationships, we heal’. Many of the barriers that inhibit healthy relationships include negative self-talk, fear of judgement, and our need to maintain a sense of control, especially when we are deeply hurt or wounded. Trauma does not discriminate and it does not wait for an opportune time to present, but we can make sense of it and heal old wounds that hold us back from really connecting with those we love.

We all experience trauma and severe life stressors' that leave us feeling stuck and hopeless. Your crisis may be depression, relationship issues, anxiety, chronic illness, sport performance or something that is so overwhelming you are struggling with life. Often time we hold ourselves in bondage to the choices we have made. I believe some of life's most difficult experiences leads us to our greatest growth. I will give you the tools to move forward from past attachments that seem to keep you stagnate in your life.

We run. We hide. We fight. We comply. And nothing changes. The stress/pain remains. We go to bed and get up the next day to do it all over again. Maybe you're at the beginning stage of coping with a stressful event. Maybe you know you need support. Maybe you don't know what you need. Maybe you're feeling out of options. Life can throw some difficult, seemingly impossible, events at us. When that happens, it's normal to feel out of control. But there is hope. I’ve spent over two decades helping people remove obstacles to living a more fulfilling life. You can feel in control again and experience life as joyful and fun.

I enjoy doing all types of therapy for all different issues to include depression, anxiety, addiction/substance use and abuse, health and wellness, grief, trauma, parental alienation, developmental challenges, autism spectrum disorders, personality disorders, eating disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorders, codependency, work stress and relationship conflict. I work with people to identify treatment goals and create a treatment regimen that fits their needs which includes psychodynamic, CBT, DBT, behavior modification, interpersonal therapy, sport psychology and coaching.

Get the support you need today! I am here to help you navigate the journey of life and to find you​r way in the world. To obtain the necessary tools to look at the brighter picture instead of focusing on the negativity at hand. To learn how to truly listen to those around you so that you can become the best version of yourself.

Do you want to live more wholeheartedly? Would you like to feel safe and supported? Would you like to try something different? Often my clients are individuals who have been in counseling before and are looking for something other than "just talking about it." I believe in trusting the organic intelligence or wisdom of the body, in the here and now, to support healing. I want to support you in building your resiliance while helping you develop a more wholehearted way of engaging in the world.
