Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) Therapists in Cottonwood, AZ

Have you reached a tipping point in your life where you know you need to make a change? Sometimes asking for help is the hardest part, and may be the best decision you make. Are you struggling with a painful addiction, or are you self-medicating, and want to stop? Do you have childhood or other traumas that you know you need to resolve? Are you anxious, stressed and have unhealthy habits to try to relax? Are your relationships triggering for you? If you are suffering from these issues, there is light at the end of the tunnel. Therapy can help you make positive changes, and improve your relationship to yourself.

Are you considering therapy but have concerns about finding the "right" therapist or type of treatment? These are important considerations and the decision to seek therapy is a big step. The patient-therapist relationship is a critical component of therapy and it is important to choose as therapist that is a "good fit" for you. Every individual is unique with his/her own personal story and goals. Therefore, therapy must be tailored to the individual. I have training and experience in multiple therapeutic approaches (CBT, REBT, DBT, psychodynamic)

Only taking clients seeking evaluations, not counseling/therapy! Do you feel overwhelmed by worry, restlessness, intrusive thoughts, or constant self-criticism? Are you experiencing problems with sleep, concentration, or memory? Do you feel hopeless and burnt out? Do you feel like you've lost a sense of who you are, struggle socially, and feel uncertain about the world or your future? This is far more common than you might think. Depression, anxiety, trauma, and stress can present vastly different depending on the individual. Whatever your current challenges may be, I'm here to help you navigate your journey.

It can be very difficult to take the first step to seek counseling. My intent the moment you walk through the door is for you to feel safe, cared for, listened to, and above all, understood. I am not here to judge or condemn. We all have our stuff. Life gets messy. Life can be complicated. We all need help. I am a people person, which means you have value, simply because you are. I am empathetic, I listen, I am real, and I can help.

The therapeutic relationship plays an important role in the healing process. I emphasize one's emotional life and history in order to work through uncomfortable experiences and explore what lies underneath the symptoms. My approach is nondirective, curious, and supportive while providing compassion, understanding, and empathy in a non-judgmental and relaxed therapeutic setting online. If you're a student, professional or person with a disability, I would like to provide you with support in managing stress, improving relationships, self-advocacy, exploring career goals and/or gaining a better understanding of yourself.

I am the best fit for a family who has children between the ages from birth to 24 years old.
