Chronic Illness Therapists in 85704

Welcome! I specialize in working with teenagers and adults who are struggling with anxiety, depression, self-esteem, trauma, PTSD, stress, burnout, grief, anger, work and school challenges, ADHD, substance abuse/addiction, racial identity and chronic illness. With my background in school counseling and education, I am equipped to help parents navigate the 504 and IEP processes. I use a Person-Centered approach in my work, in addition to Solution Focused Brief Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Trauma Focused Therapy, and a Strengths-Based approach.

Sometimes our lives become so complicated and stressful that we all need an outside, non-judgmental person to help guide us back to our inner source and wisdom. My therapeutic strengths lie in my ability to create a safe and non-judgmental relationship with my clients to help them quickly identify their strengths and utilize them to problem solve and feel better. I approach all my clients with kindness and compassion, understanding that many are entering counseling for the first time or are searching for relief from stress, depression, anxiety, loss, trauma, chronic pain or illness, or many of life's difficult transitions.

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.

Do you feel like you're living day by day? Maybe you're stuck in a relationship you're not sure about anymore or you're wanting to take your life in a different direction! Finding a therapist can be an invaluable tool in your personal growth. I can help you explore the process to see if we are a good fit, if so, I will walk beside you whether you want to work through difficult times, improve self-confidence, or have a safe space to process your emotions. I will encourage and support you through your time of healing and discovery.

Have you have looked hard and walked long seeking a sense of wellness and peace of mind? Dealing with issues like depression, anxiety, substance use disorder, trauma, or any behavioral health or relationship issue can become overwhelming. In reality, these issues often occur together where symptoms of one can mimic another and symptoms of one can drive another, requiring experienced help. There is always a reliable way forward toward recovering health, no matter how long you have been struggling with your issues or relationships, or how hopeless they feel. Let me walk with you on your journey toward wellness.

I provide psychotherapy to individuals, couples, families, adolescents and children. My general areas of interest are autistic spectrum disorders, anxiety, depression, addictions, relationships, eating disorders and trauma, and obsessive compulsive problems. My experience has been that psychological change and changes in life circumstances become possible and more probable when a person understands how their mind works; how thoughts and feelings influence what happens internally and in relation to others. Therapy can help a patient obtain a greater degree of control in managing feeling states and the thoughts related to these.

I have always been fascinated by what it means to be human: the choices we make, the stories we live with, and the beliefs, values and morals we choose to live by. Evaluating or becoming reacquainted with these parts of our human experience are all reasons that we find ourselves in need of a listening ear. I believe that past trauma, depression, anxiety, relational difficulties, loss, chronic pain, and spiritual disconnection all conceal our innermost capabilities for living a healthy, happy, whole life. I've obtained the UofA Dr. Andrew Weil Integrative Health Certification and use tenets of holistic healing.

My goal is to empower you to overcome obstacles, shed limiting beliefs, and cultivate a revitalized and fulfilled version of yourself. I can help you to shift negative perceptions; shaping the life you desire, and igniting a renewed sense of purpose.

I specialize in working with teens, adults, and families with addictions of all types, eating disorders, and body image issues. I also have vast experience working with trauma, life transitions, chronic pain, anxiety disorders, and depression in teens and adults. In addition, I like working with young adults and teens who are facing transitions into adulthood. I believe there is no one-size-fits-all approach to therapy and that healing takes place on all levels- mind, body, and spirit. Nothing has gone wrong in your life to get you to this point of reaching out- we all need help at some point and you deserve to feel better!

I am an outgoing, thoughtful, and compassionate therapist who believes in developing therapy goals together. I approach each clinical situation, therapeutic challenge, and client with positivity, respect, and exuberance. I work best with adolescents and young adults struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, and other mood disturbances. I hope to help my clients meet their identified goals.
