Cognitive Behavioral (CBT) Therapists in 85140

Seeking therapy is not easy for everyone. Some of us hold onto what our family/culture teaches us about therapy. While others may see therapy as a space where we "air our dirty laundry". My approach to therapy is to provide a space where my clients can openly discuss their thoughts/feelings in a safe environment without judgement. It is important for a client to feel heard and supported. A client must know they have the key to their own progress during their journey. They may not see it and there is where I can provide support.

Children and families are often in need of healing. This belief led me to earn my Master’s degree in Marriage, Family and Child therapy. What I have been most inspired by after 16 years of working in this field has been the capacity for inner resilience that people have shown in the face of emotional pain, adversity, and trauma. Although other traditional modalities may be incorporated (ex, CBT), I predominately use a creative, play-based approach. This includes therapy interventions such as art, games, and sand tray interventions. Together, we’ll journey toward living brighter, happier lives.

As a Marriage and Family Therapist, I can help you feel less alone and start thinking differently about the issues that have been holding you back.

Therapy is one of the greatest gifts we can give ourselves. Having a safe and confidential space free of judgment, bias, and "a stake in the game" affords us the opportunity to slow down, reflect, and be asked the quality questions that will move us toward a more satisfying and rewarding existence. Whether it is managing anxiety and depression, challenging the thoughts that lead to bad habits, or building skills to improve relationships, therapy offers us individualized time to create a better experience of our lives.

Healing is messy, and it’s also beautiful! You may feel stuck in a cycle that’s painful and no longer serves you, or you have a desire to look further inward. No matter the reason that brought you, I am glad you are here. It is 100% okay to ask for help, no matter what people have told you. Challenges are inevitable in life and are often a cue to action. When challenges go unresolved or unaddressed, they may get in the way of how you feel about yourself. The good news is there are many things you can learn and unlearn about yourself and the world you live in. I will support you through that learning and healing process.
