Therapists in Gilbert, AZ

Hi All! I am a passionate and empathetic licensed therapist with over 10 years of counseling experience for children, teenagers, adults and families. Being open and vulnerable is a huge step into your healing journey and I love being a guide to help.I help my clients with a variety of challenges such as generalized anxiety, OCD, social anxiety, depression, self-injurious behaviors, gender identity, trauma, anger, self- esteem, grief & loss, life stressors, family and relationship issues including family of origin/generational trauma issues, life changes, pre/post partum mental health issues and eating disorders. I am a LGBTQIA ally.

NOW accepting new clients ! ! (Ages 6-65+) I believe we all have the ability to heal and the ability to identify our unique needs. I believe therapy can be supportive of exploring such needs and identifying ways we can meet them. My goal is to assist others in doing so by empowering them and providing a safe therapeutic space to meet their goals.

I believe in the words of Eckhart Tolle, "If you get the inside right, the outside will fall into place." We all have stories and backgrounds that shape us and our perspectives on the world. We also have innate abilities within us to overcome obstacles to experience transformation, self-actualization and growth. What an honor it is to walk alongside my clients as they nurture and empower this inner strength by identifying and addressing the roots, by gaining acceptance and awareness, and by changing core beliefs and behavior, ultimately leading to a life filled with sustainable serenity, purpose and meaning.

I have experience working with individuals managing lives touched with mood and anxiety disorders, including depression and bipolar; grief; domestic violence (offenders and victims); physical, emotional and sexual abuse; custody issues; family reunification; marriage/relationship hurdles; problem sexual behavior; borderline personality disorder/characteristics; PTSD; ADD/ADHD, Autism Spectrum Disorder and other sensory disorders; death and dying; caretaking of ill and aging family members; and life change events, i.e. anything that is a positive change, but also brings with it fear, doubt and lots of unknowns.

Welcome to the start of a new beginning. As a therapist I believe that every day is a new opportunity for growth and taking back our power. Day to day stressors and life events can leave us feeling depressed, anxious, and powerless. As humans, we experience situations and emotions differently based on our past and current lives. I adapt my therapeutic approach and environment to meet each individual’s needs. I believe it is important to allow ourselves to experience all emotions and identify healthy ways to regulate them. As a clinician, I am inspired by an individual’s story and resilience.

Thank you so much for looking into help for yourself or a loved one. My goal is to support every client in their pursuit of any healthy goal or change they wish to achieve. Every person deserves to live a fulfilled life (whatever that means to you), but anxiety, depression, addiction, trauma, grief/loss, etc sometimes make that life seem unobtainable. I believe that with consistent and nonjudgmental support, every person can overcome those obstacles to obtain the life they deserve. *Online booking available by clicking WEBSITE button* Please reach out.
