Therapists in Chandler, AZ

My desire as a therapist is to support clients in their journey to a more authentic, fulfilling, and hope-filled life. The therapy style I utilize is supportive yet direct. I strive to guide clients to gain insight into the causes of their challenges. I am adept in working with a wide range of conditions such as anxiety, depression, adjustment issues, trauma, dual- diagnosis, self-esteem, and couples counseling. My approach to therapy is to give clients the tools and skills they need to achieve goals, personal growth, and find purpose and meaning

Whether you have been dealing with an issue for years or if it is something that has recently surfaced, counseling can be beneficial in addressing the problem. Counseling provides a non-judgmental environment with encouragement to explore the source of the presenting problem and work towards a greater well-being. I enjoy working with adolescent teens through middle-aged individuals and couples on a variety of issues including anxiety, depression, anger management, relationship issues, mood disorders, coping skills, and self-esteem.

Do you often feel like external factors are running the show? Are you consistently concerned with how others perceive you? Do you feel troubled by past experiences or traumas? Preoccupied about your future? Perhaps you hold this discomfort in your body. Maybe parts of yourself will act out impulsively to extinguish your distress. We’ve all experienced wounds of various shapes and sizes. If you are striving to pursue change, I am here to help you take agency over your life. By exploring our wounds from a place of empathy and curiosity, it is possible to discover strength and meaning, even gratitude, in our greatest challenges.

**ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS** Congratulations on taking such a big step towards your well-being, You deserve it! It would be a privilege to join you on your healing journey to addresses your unique needs & goals. I strive to provide a safe, accepting, warm, & empathic space. Together we can start to explore what may be going on in your life such as anxiety, addiction, depression, stress, grief, trauma, abuse, relationships, codependency, self-esteem, life transitions & more. I have experience working with diverse populations of all ages from various cultural and religious backgrounds.

My ideal client is someone who is seeking counseling for experiencing anxiety/depressions, or for their substance use, or is court mandated because of substance use, or is impacted by substance use or an addiction. The client has a desire to learn or want something to change. I can provide support and guidance in a safe, non-judgemental environment to address their immediate need as they go through a process of discovery and healing.

You deserve support. That's my central focus in practice, many of us minimize our own distress by saying "other people have it worse" or "I should be grateful" without actually acknowledging that you are worth the time, energy, and investment. Trust me, even if you tell yourself it's not that bad, it won't change until you change it.
