Whether you are new to counseling or have tried it before, I’m here to walk with you through the journey. I believe strongly that most people are doing the best they can with what they have at any given time. I strive to make therapy a safe place where you can work towards your goals for yourself and/or your child. In my 10 years as a Mental Health Therapist I have worked with a variety of issues including: anxiety, depression, trauma, abuse, self-harm, shame, family conflict, and parenting issues. I work with children ages 5-18 and adults of all ages.

Hello! I am focused on providing you a supportive, empathetic, and welcoming therapeutic experience. I want to help you and those you love with struggles by providing support and guidance. I take from a wide range of therapeutic modalities to work with clients to create an individual treatment plan to help them succeed and be the best version of themselves. I believe concerns stem not only from our individual thoughts and behaviors, but our environment and views of the environment. Challenges are a normal part of life, and guidance is sometimes needed in order to flourish and overcome challenges.

When we're under too much daily stress or have experienced major life changes and loss, it's not uncommon to feel anxious, overwhelmed and irritable. Our usual ways of coping may no longer work and "relief" may be short-lived. As a solution-focused therapist, I help people gain practical tools to navigate stress and uncertainty, while gaining a deeper, more compassionate understanding of themselves. In therapy we can focus on the past or present (or worries about the future), develop strategies to cope, empower and heal, so you can live the life you truly deserve.

In my practice I see individuals who are dealing with all types of painful problems revolving around issues concerning struggles with relationships, loss/bereavement, addictions, mood disorders and anxiety concerns. At times, life can be difficult especially when overwhelming circumstances occur that are beyond a person's normal realm of experience. Learning new coping skills and discovering how to be more self-protective by setting healthy boundaries and limits through a process of self-empowerment is the primary goal in the counseling setting. I work hard with clients to find their best solution.

Dr. Folts sees clients facing a variety of issues with offices in Arizona and Florida. Life presents us with circumstances; at times challenging our relationships and ourselves. Therapy can be a catalyst in the discovery of creative and viable solutions, or in the personal work toward acceptance. Dr. Folts brings a wealth of experience and training.

Dr Folts' doctoral research included depression, anxiety, chronic/prolonged illness, as well as those facing terminal diagnosis.

I believe people are courageous to face their individual and relationship challenges. My role as a therapist is to assist my clients toward a more desirable future and provide a safe, non-judgmental, supportive environment that nurtures growth and healing. I approach therapy from an integrative holistic perspective. My approach is influenced largely by but not limited to Client-centered, CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy), DBT (dialectical behavioral therapy), EMDR (Eye-movement desensitization reprocessing) trauma therapy, play therapy, sandtray, expressive arts, and Neurofeedback Brain Training for individuals and families.

I use a client-centered approach to match my clients' preferences and, draw from my interdependent cultural background. I like to gain an understanding of my clients in context like where they come from, where they are now, and where they would like to be. I use the term “mental wellness” to indicate a state of being when a person can feel satisfaction and enjoy life regardless of their current situation or obstacles — when a person can use their strengths and resources to challenge life situations or circumstances. Through psychotherapy, I support the process of exploration, growth, and change.
