Hello, my name is Tracy Elliott. I am a Licensed Associate Marriage and Family therapist under the supervision of Dr. Nancy Frigaard. For more than 25 years I have worked in various helping positions. It is my passion to help people restore relationships and build stronger marriages and families. It can be difficult for some to find someone to trust or share your troubles with without fear of judgement or criticism. I make it a priority to provide that safe space to process your emotions, talk through your circumstances, your trauma, or even your past hurts to bring healing.

New Clients welcome! Finding the right counselor can be an overwhelming task. I would be honored to alleviate that stress and be a witness to your pain & your healing. Whether you struggle with a painful relationship, a mental health diagnosis or just feel stuck in life, my heart is to give each client individualized attention to resolve wounds, overcome painful experiences and reach goals through proven therapeutic models. Learning how to care for the relationship you have with you with grace & compassion is paramount. It aids to better navigate relationships, set healthy boundaries, & strive for excellence in all areas of life.

My name is Jennifer B. Curran, MS, LAMFT. I love working with people and believe in the importance of healthy relationships. I have worked with people from all walks of life, each with a unique history and story to tell. I enjoy assisting people in unlocking their amazing potential, as well as in the incredible potential within their relationships.

Are you feeling frustrated in close relationships and wondering if it's possible to achieve harmony? Are you hoping to make changes within yourself to create a better life? These positive changes are possible but sometimes the pathway to get there is unclear. I help individuals, couples and families to identify dysfunctional patterns then provide tools to establish new patterns that help create healthier relationships and deepen intimacy. For couples therapy, I utilize an advanced couples therapy approach called EFT (Emotion Focused Therapy) which significantly helps the couple to increase and/or establish a securely attached relationship bond.

Let's face it... life can be overwhelming. Maybe you've realized how much it's taken its toll on you, and you're tired of being held hostage by your emotions. You often feel not good enough, and find yourself working hard to please others. You feel there is something wrong with you. You find it difficult to be in present moment due to intrusive painful memories from the past or worries about the future. You are tired of feeling miserable, and the best solution you've found is to avoid or numb emotions all together. It feels easier to "check out" from life than to feel the pain that has been buried so deep.

It is in the experience of others and our own that at one time or another all of us have faced, is facing or will face some kind of adversity, distress, depression, anxiety, loss, abuse, neglect and trauma. During these seasons in life, fear, loneliness and/or being overwhelmed can feel as if we are stuck in quick sand. The more we fight to get out of the quicksand the more we sink, and hope can diminish. Clients say we meet them exactly where they are in their struggle. We learn the core challenges that are in front of them and together work towards a solution.

Seeking therapy is often a complex and difficult choice, whether its to manage your stresses or manage your life, whether its to deal with depression that feels is weighing you down, or anxiety that holds you back from living life fully. Therapy is the space I make safe for you to gain the knowledge, tools, and skills to make the changes you need. I strongly believe in a holistic approach to behavioral and mental health in addressing your needs and working at the root core of your concerns to promote mental and emotional well-being. You've taken the first courageous step. Sincerely, congratulations.

I am passionate about collaborating with people who have been underserved, having worked for over 20 years with people of diverse races/ ethnicities/ nationalities, sexual orientation, gender identity, partnership/ family structure, religions and philosophies, occupations and lifestyles. Regardless of what mental health, relationship or life issue you might have, if you crave a breadth and depth of healing insight, I am highly effective at supporting this process. I work best with those whose greatest satisfaction is found in unique experiences, whether alone or shared with others. I love working with people who feel different!

Getting started with therapy or finding a therapist can be overwhelming and I want to congratulate you for taking the first step and learning about me. I’m fluent in Spanish-English reading, writing and of course speaking. My experience in the health care field since 2016 and the last 4 years in mental health within the community mental health system has only grown my ability to connect with a diverse population and understand the challenges of anxiety, depression, trauma, self-esteem, parental challenges, teen challenges and couples issues.

I have been working as a counselor in Arizona since 2016. I work with patients ages 15+ to address mental health needs whatever they may be. My belief is that healing requires both internal and external change through insight, self-compassion, self-care, boundary setting, and healthy support systems.

We specialize in Marriage and Family Therapy including parenting, family cooperation and marital discord/couples counseling. We work with blended and divorced families, emphasizing healthy communication and co-parenting. We work with families struggling with issues associated with ADHD, Depression, Anxiety, Defiance and Attachment Difficulties. We have a focus on identifying strengths and able to work with just the individual person or with as many members in the persons' system that are receptive to participate. As special part of our practice I work with sports performance and college athlete/student readiness.

Life can be difficult to navigate, but when we learn to use our strengths our curiosity can begin to grow. Therapy is challenging yet the process when met with self-reflection and honest conversation allows for learning to live in true freedom. We are harmed in relationship; however, it is through relationship we are healed. Learning to connect with others provides the safety we need to find meaning and purpose.

As unique as each of our journeys are in life, there are moments when we can feel lost and “off track.” Unexpected situations and unforeseen obstacles are things we all encounter at some point in life. Navigating through can be overwhelming and sometimes it is during these times when support and guidance can be so valuable. If you are are struggling with feelings of depression, anxiety, painful events from your past or if you are currently being affected by relational issues or burdened by life circumstances, counseling may be beneficial for you.

If you want to live a more fulfilling life and attempt to live medication free, I can help you discover and work through past issues preventing you from doing so. Rather than masking and not resolving issues with medication, I believe behavioral change can occur through exercise, healthy eating, relaxation techniques and the use of cognitive behavioral strategies. Because so many people lack a positive support network, I encourage spiritual connection and support systems within the local community. Although I practice from a Christian perspective I do not impose my beliefs on clients.

Relationships take work! Whether its your relationship with yourself, your spouse, your family or your co-workers, it's all about communication. Using a holistic approach, I can help you find your way through the barriers that have created stress or caused other obstacles in your life. I know that one person or a supportive therapeutic experience can have the power to change one's perspective and make a huge positive difference in your life. There is always hope and I believe more than anything that everyone's story matters.
