Mindfulness-Based (MBCT) Therapists in Phoenix, AZ
Anxiety and OCD have a way of misdirecting attention and efforts away from what is most meaningful in life, robbing individuals of the enriching life they desire. In my practice, I am dedicated to helping people unhook from unhelpful cycles of thinking and behaving, reconnect with what matters most to them, and take effective actions toward meaningful change. For some, this means first working together to better understand what your values are and how to get motivated to move towards them. For others, it means diving in to action right away. Whatever stage of your journey you are in, I’d love to help.

My approach is collaborative and client-centered, drawing from CBT, DBT, mindfulness, and person-centered therapy.
Starting therapy can feel overwhelming, and my goal is to create a safe, welcoming space where you feel supported from the very beginning. I work with adolescents and adults navigating challenges such as anxiety, self-esteem, trauma, communication difficulties, coping skills, and personal growth. Together, we’ll identify what matters most to you and build a path toward healing and resilience at your own pace.

I specialize in working with individuals experiencing depression, anxiety, grief and loss, adoption-related concerns, pregnancy loss, chronic pain, and chronic illness. My goal is to create a healing space where clients feel seen, supported, and equipped with tools that promote long-term resilience and growth. I bring a trauma-informed, client-centered approach to every individual I serve. I strongly believe that counseling should never be one-size-fits-all, and I remain committed to creating individualized treatment plans tailored to each client’s unique needs and goals.

You’re exhausted by the noise in your head—the loops, the guilt after the hookup, the drink, the scroll, the shame that won’t loosen its grip. You keep it together for everyone else while quietly falling apart inside. Political and social pressure, a chaotic world, relationships, sexuality, OCD spirals—it all stacks up until you feel numb, on edge, or empty. I am the owner of Noble Path Counseling, we proudly serve LGBTQ+ and culturally diverse communities. We don’t try to “fix” you—we sit with you in the hard parts. Real therapy for people surviving this world and ready to start living. Check out our website to learn more.

I integrate attachment-focused work, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and self-compassion practices.
You don’t come to therapy because life is going well. You come because something meaningful has been lost, disrupted, or no longer makes sense — a relationship, a role, or the life you thought you would be living. I work with adults and couples navigating divorce and separation, grief and loss, relationship challenges, family estrangement, and other major life transitions. Many of my clients come to therapy after a long-term marriage ends, a family relationship fractures, or life no longer resembles what they expected — leaving them feeling overwhelmed, heartbroken, or emotionally exhausted after years of holding things together.

NOW accepting patients online throughout AZ! You feel things deeply. You’ve been told you’re “too sensitive” or “overreacting,” and you’re tired of trying to fit into systems—whether religious, social, or recovery-based—that never quite saw you. Maybe you’re navigating trauma, struggling with substance use but not resonating with 12-step models, or finding your way after leaving a high-control faith like Mormonism. You want to feel like yourself again—grounded, real, and connected to something true. You don’t want surface-level advice. You want therapy that makes space for all of you, even the parts that feel messy or uncertain.

Hello, I am taking new patients! If you're feeling overwhelmed, anxious, stuck in self-criticism, or disconnected from others, you’re not alone. Through a person-centered lens, my approach is collaborative, grounded in compassion and respect for your lived experience. Clients often describe me as warm, grounded, and direct—with a focus on empowerment and self-compassion. My role isn’t to “fix” you—it’s to support you in uncovering your strengths, building resilience, and creating a life that feels more aligned and authentic. I believe the most integral component in the therapeutic process is the moment a client feels understood.
