Therapists in Arizona
I’ve been a counselor and a coach for over a dozen years now and I have learned that to be our best, to truly make positive changes in our lives we need to address the whole person: mind, body, and spirit. Our goal is the full integration of the emotional child, the intellectual adult, the physical body, and the spirit guide (soul). I believe that everyone is capable of, is in fact entitled to, a life of happiness, love, peace, and fulfillment. I utilize an integrative approach that includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy ( DBT), empathetic listening, mindfulness, and spirituality.

I use a person-centered eclectic approach, specifically Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Dialectic Behavioral Therapy ( DBT), and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to collaborate with you to meet your goals.
I believe everyone has the strength and ability to overcome their personal struggles, but sometimes we need a little help. I am here to support you during your journey of self-discovery, growth, and positive change. I work with highly motivated individuals who are struggling with recurring emotional pain and who want to overcome what limits them through healing. I have specific experience helping those who struggle with symptoms associated with BPD, PTSD, OCD, narcissistic abuse recovery, self-harm, and dissociative disorders. Symptoms I have helped clients work through include self-sabotaging behaviors and relationship struggles.

Some approaches I use are CBT, Mindfulness, DBT, IFS, Health at Every Size and Intuitive Eating.
The biggest takeaway from working together will be that you feel supported, seen and excited to grow. Your sessions will be a joyful experience and a safe space where we collaborate to determine and achieve your goals. I want to help you find your unique path to happiness and a life full of color. Sessions are supportive while also challenging you to truly create change and at times be open to getting uncomfortable so you can grow and live the life you want.

During this very challenging time of communities chaos, personal and career transitions and uncertainties, we are all seeking comfort, understanding, welcoming connection, and joining something that is both meaningful and personally fulfilling and safe to participate in. We seek others that can identify with our own experiences, our fears, and our perceived solutions. We feel guarded and suspicious, and alone and sometimes forgotten. We blame ourselves for feeling depressed or anxious, grief and heartbroken for our families, our future, and work environments. We want to work harder to feel better and yet, continue to struggle.

I specialize in working with a diverse population of military, veterans, first responders, and well as their family members. Many face unique issues of stress, culture, stigma, trauma, adjustment and more. Integrating many styles, I meet clients where they are and utilize a humanistic approach to each person’s ability to integrate their strengths so they may overcome obstacles. Clients can have a safe space to share concerns and learn skills to work through challenges. My goal is to encouragingly scaffold clients as they heal while feeling seen and heard during their season of growth.

The stress of recent world events may increase anxiety, depression, and PTSD. Big "T" traumas are life-threatening events that may be witnessed (bystanders) or experienced. Little "t" traumas include non-life-threatening injuries, emotional abuse, death of a pet, bullying or harassment, loss of significant relationships, just to name a few. All traumas have a significant emotional impact. Failing to address any trauma may result in anxiety, depression, and substance abuse, just to name a few. Living with painful memories can be devastating to the mind by creating chaotic thinking.
