Therapists in Scottsdale, AZ

Traumatic experiences, regardless of what kind, leave behind hidden wounds and scars. Among many things you find yourself on high alert around others; bracing for some unknown threat. Some people may tell you to simply 'push through it' or just 'toughen up.' But it simply does not work that way. You, the client, determine when and what trauma material you are ready to process. We work to heal the traumatized self, in our sessions, through ART (Accelerated Resolution Therapy), psychodynamic and Inner Child work. You don't have to suffer quietly alone.

Life is filled with ups and downs, highs and lows. And when we are struggling sometimes it's easy to pick ourselves up while other times, we need help. My role, as a licensed clinical social worker, is to assist help adolescents and adults, in my care, to process and cope with overwhelming feelings of stress, depression, and anxiety that they face. I believe that you are the expert of your life, and it is through the collaborative experience that, together, we can navigate the barriers and challenges to your success.

Therapy is an interesting thing - many people have preconceived notions of what therapy is or should be. Therapy, to me, is simple. You have some issues in your life that are bothering you - maybe you feel down, maybe you can't get your relationships to work. Everything that you've tried hasn't been helpful or, ultimately, hasn't gotten you where you want to be. That's where I come in. I can help you pick up your issue, turn it to an angle that maybe you haven't seen yet, and brainstorm new ways to address it.

Hello and welcome! I am so glad you are here. The decision to start therapy isn't always an easy one, and you’ve already accomplished one of the hardest parts: starting the process. The process of finding a therapist can also be a bit overwhelming, and finding someone that is a good match for you is essential to your success. Naturally, you may feel a little nervous or uncertain at first, and that is okay! I am here to answer any of your questions and make the process less intimidating. I truly enjoy getting to know my clients and developing a genuine relationship with each one.

Did you know that trauma doesn't consist only of the obvious things like being in a war or a car accident? Those are called "big T" traumas, and not everyone experiences them. Everyone experiences "little t" traumas, though, like being teased in school or growing up in an unhappy family. "Little t" traumas add up; they contribute to depression, anxiety, addictions, codependency, low self-esteem, and other mental health issues. Chances are that "big T" and/or "little t" traumas have something to do with why you're seeking therapy. After a while, you get tired of trying to cope with these things on your own.

Do you feel like an imposter? Does it feel like everyone else got a rulebook that you didn't? Are you trying to overcome the effects of trauma, whether from a major life event, or from many smaller things throughout your life that have eaten away at your self-esteem? I'm guessing that you have many negative beliefs about yourself that you know, logically, aren't true. It's really hard to turn that logic into true belief about your worth as a human being, though. I can help you to go from just knowing in your head that you're worthy of love and a fulfilling life to truly believing it deep down. That makes a huge difference!

Weekends available now! After experiencing intense stress we can experience anxiety, spaciness, a tense body, irritability, relational conflict, or intrusive memories. Trauma can be more obvious - a sudden, horrible event, but maybe life has been overwhelming as long as you can remember, which might mean a long history of stress. I use creative and innovative trauma healing practices - ancient and cutting edge - to help people access healing, even those who have been a therapy a long time. I especially enjoy working with the queer community. As a queer person myself I do not take lightly the importance of affirming care.

Counseling seems like a strange thing. You are supposed to tell a stranger all the intimate details about yourself and focus on the worst parts of your life - and pay for it!

I would love to see if this strange thing can transform your life.
