Teletherapy for Arizona

Throughout our clinical experience at Better Lives Building Tribes (BLBT), we have learned that people are learning the most about themselves through their interactions with other people. But interactions with other people are complicated and people often need help navigating conflict, conflict resolution, and setting boundaries amidst already struggling self-esteem and self-worth. How we feel about ourselves has everything to do with our ability to defend ourselves, verbalize our own needs, and come up with creative solutions to our interpersonal hurdles. If you find yourself having difficulties with others, we are here to help.

I am committed to client care and service. I treat each client with respect, compassion and understanding. I am trained in Eastern and Western Philosophy, cognitive therapy, and I bring practice experience from a variety of settings. I explore with clients a creative use of dialogue to gather resources, open useful connections and find meanings that enable practical application to their life. Learning how to be present with, and let go of experience is a skillful way for being in the here and now. I have direct experience in helping with anxiety and depression. Start finding your way today.

Did you recently suffer a breakup in a relationship? Are you forever choosing wrong partners? How are your relationships in general, even if they are not romantic? Are you suicidal, angry, depressed, anxious, worried, suffering from past trauma you cannot shake? Are you repeatedly struggling with addiction? Are you questioning your sexual orientation? Are seeking acceptance? Is your self-esteem suffering? Do you struggle from religious abuse? So many issues can overwhelm us, but there is ALWAYS a positive solution.

Have you grown concerned for yourself or your son? It could be anxiety...or depression...or isolation...or maybe you aren't exactly sure and are looking for an expert's second opinion. I specialize in working with teens and adult men. Oftentimes the clients who come to see me are coming to therapy for the first time and don't exactly know what to expect. Or they have done therapy in the past but didn't find it to be that helpful because all their previous therapist did was let them talk for an hour each week.

My career in social services has given me the rare opportunity and privilege to accompany others throughout much of life’s journey--from the miracle of birth, as an adoption advocate to helping senior populations and their families as a counsellor managing long term care and end of life issues. One of the universal truths that I have learned is that struggle and adversity is an inescapable part of the human experience. Rather than let these challenges destroy you, my role is to help you on your journey to grow and work through the hardships of life and become the healthiest and happiest version of yourself.

Life has gotten hard enough that you’re finally reaching out for support. You’ve been looking into counseling for a while now and you know finding the right counselor is essential. You’ve skimmed a few therapists' profiles, but no one seems like the right fit. You want someone that understands your fears and worries. Someone who gets it when you share your uncertainties about your partner being “the one” for you. You are asking for support, clarity and connection to the world around you. Connection is important to you, and it's important to me too.

Life can be extremely difficult to navigate at times, especially when going through major life transitions. I work with adults and adolescents experiencing family conflict, depression, anxiety, stress-related issues, Grief and Loss, communication challenges, self-esteem issues. I am equipped with techniques that promote both verbal and non-verbal expressions in a therapeutic manner rather than stigmatizing. As a Substance Abuse Profesionnal (SAP) evaluate employees who have violated DOT drug and alcohol regulation and make recommendations education, treatment , continuing care, referrals for treatment, and follow-up testing.

I help men and couples overcome porn addiction, sex addiction, infidelity, or betrayal trauma. You are not alone. There is hope. You can conquer this, it just takes a lot of work. I will help you start new habits, change your thinking, and deepen your connection to others as ways of healing from your pain, whether it is self-inflicted or from your partner. Recovery is a long, hard road. We will get you unstuck from old patterns of behavior, emotional self-medicating, and insecure attachment. You can feel proud of who you are and what you offer to the world and the key people in your life.

I’m a Bilingual “Spanish and English” African American/Black Psychological Therapist with a Doctorate Degree. I work with all client ages, backgrounds, and behavioral needs. With an in-depth understanding of psychological disorders, treatment techniques, diagnosis, interventions, and referrals. This includes performing assessment and psychological testing with multiple disciplinary teams in Primary Care, Integrated Care and mental health settings. I provide solution to problems by using client’s strengths to combat challenges. I integrate the role of the mind, body, and spirit in therapy.

Pathway to Peace Psychotherapy, PLLC has EVENING and WEEKEND appointments available both in office and telehealth! My experience includes working with adults and teens to work through trauma, establish recovery, help develop coping skills, resiliency, and balance in their lives. I use evidence-based CBT, DBT, IFS and EMDR techniques which accelerate the brain's response to learning how to change negative beliefs to positive beliefs.

Everyone needs care and support and I believe treatment is more successful when there is an openness and a willingness to collaborate and work together. You do not have to know where to begin but if we work together we can help you reach deeper levels of understanding and healing. Whether it is struggling with the stresses of life or life transitions I want you to feel supported and empowered to be bold in living your best life.

Have you ever observed how much of human behavior is driven by our basic human needs for balance and connection? Think about the ways we risk and reach for our partners. Think about how you cope when you feel lonely or rejected or the ways you mask the discomfort of feeling overwhelmed or depressed. It might show up as an eating disorder, conflict in your relationship or sexual issues, even stress at work. If you feel the ways you navigate life stressors are not as effective as you would like I am here to help. I see therapy as a safe, secure place to work through life’s challenges in a collaborative, non-judgemental environment.

Connection is the most basic human need. Our survival is dependent on whether or not we have someone we can turn to when we are most vulnerable. We experience disconnection as: death, divorce, conflict, betrayal, loneliness. I can guide you on your journey of securing satisfying and nurturing relationships or strengthening and rebuilding existing relationships . I have experience working with sexual & intimacy issues, sex addiction, pornography and affair recovery. I can help you repair and reconnect with whomever matters the most in your life or find and create new lasting, healthy relationships. I help individuals and couples find greater happiness improve their lives.

Do you feel like the same issues keep coming up for you over and over again? Are you frustrated in your personal life or in your relationships? Everything we do in life we do for a valid reason whether it is to survive or to thrive. And yet sometimes our patterns of behavior don’t get us the results we want or maybe we even get in our own way. Working together we can discover solutions and techniques that can make life’s challenges easier to carry.

Do you struggle with anxiety, depression or life transitions? Have these struggles made it difficult to maintain everyday life or relationships? These things don't have to be something that you deal with alone. Now more than ever, people are feeling an increase in anxiety, depression and uncertainty about life transitions or past traumas. Therapy can be a great place to feel safe to process and heal from these issues to avoid burnout. We believe that there is hope and answers. Taking that first step to start therapy can be life changing and we are excited to be here with you along this journey.

Are you feeling anxious, stressed, or stuck? Do you constantly feel like you just "aren't good enough"? You are not alone. Living in an age of instant information, external validation and constant pressure to succeed can feel overwhelming. You are in the right place. We understand that you need a safe space to identify what the roadblocks are that are holding you back so that you can start to work through them and heal. We are ready to meet you where you are with compassion and understanding. It shouldn't be so hard to feel comfortable in your own mind and body. We are here to help.

Are you interested in learning why you are feeling so down? Are you looking for a therapist with a trauma-informed approach to help you process current and past struggles? Are you tired of dealing with things on your own? If so, I am here to help. I strive to help my clients achieve more understanding and insight, more compassion towards themselves, and more tools to deal with difficult times. My clients often report an improvement in mood, reduction of symptoms such as decreased anxiety/depression, better understanding and management of triggers and a greater awareness and appreciation of themselves.

Does life currently feel like you are just existing, surviving, reacting, or coping? Are you lacking real connection to yourself or others? Do you strive to feel more balanced and engage in behaviors that align with your values and goals? Excessive worry, lack of motivation, social isolation, and loss of self-worth are just a few of the symptoms that can be experienced from suffering trauma, grief, anxiety, or depression. Whether you are looking for a therapist for the first time or need to start back up, you have come to the right place.
