Therapists for Adults in Paradise Valley, AZ
Learn in a nurturing therapeutic environment, discover tools for self-development and gain pragmatic skills to enhance the fullness of your life. While the old age adage asks "glass half full or half empty?" my personal mantra is "why not change the size of the container so your glass is always full!" Perhaps you are experiencing a time when you are unable to move beyond your current level of awareness and/or seeing limited growth? It is with your full potential in mind that I choose to incorporate not only "talk therapy", but also integrative depth psychological practices such as dream work into the clinical setting.

Most of the people I work with are high-functioning on the outside, and quietly overwhelmed on the inside.
They're thoughtful, self-aware, and capable - but they feel stuck, depleted, or disconnected in ways they can't quite explain. They've often tried therapy before, learned the language, gained the insight... and still feel like something isn't shifting.
My work is about helping you slow things down enough to hear yourself again.

As an EMDR Certified Therapist, I help adults heal from trauma, anxiety, and painful life experiences.
Are you feeling exhausted from carrying emotional pain that never seems to fully go away?
Maybe you've spent years trying to move forward, yet anxiety, painful relationships, childhood experiences, or a significant life event continue to affect how you feel about yourself and others. You may look like you're managing everything on the outside while privately feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck in the same patterns. Healing is possible, and you don't have to navigate it alone.

Are you seeking clarity, healing, or growth in your relationships, marriage, or faith—especially around intimacy, communication, or sexual concerns? Many of my individuals and couples feel stuck, disconnected, or uncertain in these areas. You may long to deepen your faith, restore intimacy, or experience greater connection in your relationship. I provide a safe, supportive space to explore these challenges and move forward. As a Catholic Christian counselor and coach, I integrate faith and mental health to help individuals and couples strengthen relationships, grow in sexual intimacy, and deepen connection with God and one another.

Hi I'm Jodi! I'm so glad you're here! I'm an Arizona native with over 25 years of professional experience working with families and kids kindergarten-college. My career path has led me through schools, non-profits and beyond. Still, everything I cherish about this work comes from what I learned working at sleep-away camp... 1. Making messes teaches us how to clean up. 2. Discomfort is necessary for growth. 3. Trusting ourselves teaches us limits and shows us what we are capable of. 4. We don't get anywhere without advocating for ourselves. 5. Nothing is more delicious than grilled cheese and tomato soup.

As a Certified Eating Disorder Specialist, I have years of experience working with teens, adults, and families struggling with eating disorders, disordered eating, poor body image, trauma, and OCD.
Finding a therapist can be a daunting and overwhelming process. Then add the other mental challenges, barriers to treatment, and stigma, and it makes sense why it is hard to ask for help. Mental health concerns affect people from every culture and intersectional identity. Throughout my fourteen years of experience, I've discovered how each client is unique and when treated with their cultural/identity needs as a roadmap in the treatment plan, they can recover and thrive more quickly.

You may feel stuck in patterns you don’t fully understand. Maybe you keep having the same conflicts in relationships, reacting more strongly than you want, or feeling disconnected even when life looks fine on the outside. Many people carry unresolved trauma, shame, or relational wounds that continue to shape how they think, feel, and connect with others. My clients want deeper understanding of themselves, healthier relationships, and the ability to feel calm, grounded, and emotionally free rather than controlled by the past.

Danielle LaPorte asked the question best, “Can you remember who you were before the world told you who you should be?” Can you remember when you loved and accepted yourself unapologetically, and embraced all the things about you that make you unique? As we age, we gain knowledge from life experiences and through those experiences we can soar to greatness or we can break and lose sight of who we really are, and become someone we were never meant to be. When we become someone less than who we were meant to be we can begin to experience anxiety, depression, substance abuse, loss of relationships and functional distress.

In my practice, I provide the necessary emotional environment that is conducive to healing and use the most advanced proven therapeutic tools for my clients. I believe that any adverse life event can overwhelm the normal adaptive capacity of any person at any age. Untreated, it can lead to the development of dysfunctional behaviors, feelings, and thoughts, such as depression, anxiety, obsession, negative self-talk, low self esteem, procrastination, PTSD, anger & relationship issues, among others. I also believe that everyone has the innate healing capacity to overcome these issues with the help of an experienced professional.

You’ve gotten good at holding it together. From the outside things look fine, but underneath there’s a tiredness that rest doesn’t touch. Maybe it’s the same argument with your partner on a loop, people-pleasing you can’t put down, or grief you’ve never had room to face. You don’t need to know exactly what’s wrong before you reach out. That’s what this space is for. Together we’ll slow things down, make sense of what’s underneath, and help you build steadier days and clearer conversations.

Luna works with individuals who long to feel more connected - to themselves, to their loved ones, and to the world they move through each day. Her clients often come feeling disconnected, unsure where they belong, or carrying the quiet belief that there’s something “wrong” with them. Rooted in curiosity, compassion, and care, Luna creates a therapeutic space where all parts of you are welcome - even those that feel uncertain, unseen, or unsure. Her sessions are warm, non-judgmental, and often infused with humor and laughter, making room for both vulnerability and meaningful growth.
