Therapists in Mesa, AZ

As a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist I have helped couples and families work through various relational & emotional intimacy challenges. I am also a Certified Sex Addiction Therapist. I work significantly with males struggling with sexually compulsive behaviors along with the spouses, partners, families and others impacted by their unhealthy and/or problematic choices. I have been described as a 'Perspectivist Therapist' due to my clear, honest, open, respectful and direct ability to help people gain perspective about their problems, increase hopeful belief for their future and establish realistic expectations.

My years of clinical practice have helped me to understand the value of an individual. Most people have the resources they need to manage the challenges they have, but they sometimes struggle to see the resources that are available to them. I use a solution focused, non judgmental, approach to help individuals resolve major life issues like addiction, depression, anxiety, and family and relational conflict. Individuals and couples can find affective attunement with themselves, their spouse, and their children, as they learn to strengthen who they are as individuals and become clearer about their own emotional regulation.

We provide a variety of specialties at our agency among our 24 therapists. Programming for pornography and sexual addiction (adults, couples and teens), betrayal trauma, marriage therapy, parenting, anxiety, depression, self-esteem, suicide prevention, trauma, self-harm and other mental health concerns. We treat children, youth and adults. Our counselors have specialized training and expertise in their specific areas of emphasis. We also work closely with HOPE foundation to help clients who need financial support for therapeutic services.

Through a comprehensive approach, I work with families, couples, and individuals to create safety and security in their relationships. Having the privilege to come alongside this population has increased my passion for working with both adults and children in regard to abuse, shame, and freedom from their respective pasts.

Have you been struggling with the same problems, thoughts, or feelings for weeks, months, or even years and can't seem to get them under control? Are your intimate, social, and work relationships being affected by the reoccurring problems and thoughts? It's very frustrating when your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors are not in line with your values and who you want to be. You know that if you could just learn to let go of the past and focus on the present, then your life and relationships will improve; but you just don't know how. Is there hope?

I have a PhD and almost 30 yrs experience working with clients. I have advanced training in EFT and Gottman Therapy. I also draw on 35 yrs of experience being married. All couples have conflicts. The difference is happy couples have a way to resolve and repair issues. I specialize in helping couples develop that repair process. When many couples argue they end up feeling more frustrated, distant, and dissatisfied in their relationship instead of feeling close and connected. Eventually they stop talking to avoid fighting and grow apart. I help couples who are stuck find a way to experience the love and closeness they desire.

I work with (ages 16+), adults, and couples that are pursing healing. I honor the courage to start counseling. I have spent thousands of hours in the mental health field and have keynoted at national trainings for using experiential modalities. I am a certified-sex addiction therapist (CSAT-C) by ITAP. I view therapy through an emotional and attachment lens. and use modalities like emotionally focused therapy and experiential therapy. I tailor these modalities to meet the needs of each client. I focus on creating treatment with structure, shame reduction, and help foster meaningful connection and attachment with family and friends.

I have extensive training in helping adults and families who struggle with behavioral addictions, childhood trauma, and attachment wounds.

I'd like to be a source encouragement, accountability, real tools, and hope as you tackle unwanted porn use and/or sex addiction, anxiety, or relationship harms resulting from these type of struggles. I'm ready to join you on your Journey to Progress. Contact me today.

Lying awake with your back toward your spouse, hurting again. Your mind racing, blaming your partner for all the problems in the relationship. The thought comes to mind, “The argument was days ago, why can’t we talk?” You’ve tried things before, but only for a short time. The self doubt creeps in, shame, loneliness, sadness, guilt. What happened to the joyful days of the beginning? Life. Life got in the way and took you both by storm. Now, you feel as though you no longer know your spouse, and he/she doesn’t really know you. Before you finally drift off to sleep one last thought crosses your mind, “I want to make this work.”

Do you ever feel that you are not currently the best version of yourself? Do you ever feel that you are not where you want to be in life, but not sure where you would prefer to be or how to get there? You're not alone in that experience. Genuine peace and happiness are within reach for anyone who is willing to reach for it. We are all products of our environments and culminations of our life experiences, but those environments and experiences do not have to define nor dictate who we are. My goal as your therapist is to help you become the version of yourself you have always dreamed of being.
