Therapists in Maricopa County, AZ

Accepting BCBS, United Healthcare, Cigna and Aetna. I’m glad you landed here and took the hardest step to feeling better and getting the support you need. Do you want to understand why you may be feeling stuck? I will help you navigate your life and get you back to a more balanced place of joy, purpose, and fulfillment. Some of the areas I focus on are managing anxiety, depression, relationship betrayal, family conflict, grief and loss, trauma, or struggling to manage day to day life. I’m looking forward to working with you!

Do you feel like roommates? When you try to share what is bothering you, does it always turn into an argument? Do you fight about nothing, all the time? Is the emotional softness and tenderness gone? In this place, we lose the safety to talk about what is going on in the deeper levels of our soul, where the feelings of fear, rejection, loneliness, & abandonment exist. I can help you find emotional safety & intimacy with your spouse again. If trauma plays a part in the emotional disconnect we will use proven & effective methods to reduce or remove those sensations, so you can feel safe in allowing your vulnerability to exist again.

My specialties include anxiety, stress, depression, body image issues, and an unhealthy relationship with food. Ideal clients I work with are looking for evidence- based strategies to overcome these challenges and gain the most effective ways of coping with life. If you are looking for compassion, encouragement, and empowerment to build on your strengths while changing your life for the better, I would love to work with you!

Welcome to my private practice in Scottsdale, AZ where I have provided psychotherapy since 2001. I enjoy having a variety of clients to work with, including couples, individuals, adolescents, and families. My clinical approach is solution-focused, rooted largely in cognitive-behavioral therapy. I specialize in mood and anxiety disorders, OCD, family systems therapy, behavioral issues with children/teens, relationship issues, and stage of life changes. My clinical style is goal-oriented; I'm direct in providing observations and always seeking your feedback regarding the efficacy and the outcomes you are experiencing in therapy.

Whether you are seeking solutions for a long standing issue or with a recent struggle, I would love to help. I work with adult individuals and couples regarding relational conflict, parenting struggles, present or past trauma, depression, coping with life transitions, low self esteem, anxiety, shame, addiction, and spiritual struggles. My approach is client-centered and holistic in view as I believe that each of us present with a rich history of our own unique qualities and experiences that have led to successes as well as challenges..

I have been in private practice in the Scottsdale area for 23 years. I attended Arizona State University as an undergrad and completed my graduate work at the University of San Francisco. I work with individuals, couples, families and children. Divorce, grief, addiction, sexually alternative lifestyles, eating disorders, trauma, anxiety/depression & ADD/ADHD are just a few of my specialties. I have flexible morning and evening hours a couple days a week. I am a Board-Certified Telemental Health Provider & have flexibility for Telehealth counseling sessions. I am on numerous insurance plans as well as working on a sliding scale.

My training and professional experience has been with clients of all ages. I work primarily as a cognitive/behavioral therapist. This means that I am practical, goal oriented, and that the work is research based. I have special training in clinical hypnosis, EFT, guided imagery and meditation, as well as yoga. I often blend cognitive work with other modalities. I give specific recommendations and frequently assign "homework". I believe people who are motivated can make tremendous changes. I feel priviledged and honored to work with clients who are facing tough life challenges. I love my work!

There they are again. The feelings of fear, worry, stress, powerlessness and shame. These feelings keep you stuck and make you feel miserable. I’d like to offer my services to you. Relationship issues, depression, anxiety, trauma, and attachment issues are all reasons why men and women seek my services. Additionally, I have treated teenagers and children in the foster care system using expressive therapies. Intially many clients report: “I’m at the end of my rope;” “The same stuff keeps happening to me;” “A part of me just doesn’t feel right.” I've been helping people step out of that story for over twenty years.

If you are struggling as an individual, couple or family, Dr. Reese can absolutely assist. Please reach out if you are struggling with emotional and mental fatigue, worries, frustrations, grief, loneliness, parenting, domestic violence, past childhood abuse and trauma, insomnia, nightmares/terrors, self-confidence, sexual assault, and feelings of hopelessness. If you have a child struggling with behaviors, divorce, emotional dysfunction, bullying, and making friends please call. We all have the capacity to overcome and be resilient and at times, need assistance to see the path ahead. You are a survivor!

I am a compassionate and empathetic person, and my goal as your therapist is to provide a safe and non-judgmental setting while you embark on your gender journey. My therapeutic approaches include motivational interviewing, EMDR, solution-focused interventions, and person-centered engagement. Shortly after receiving my bachelor’s degree, I moved to Arizona and began my journey to discover my authentic self. In 2009, I made the courageous steps to live authentically as a transgender man and medically transition. Therefore, I bring a wealth of knowledge regarding resources to therapy.

I listen, act, and transform. Many of us are faced with some very big challenges in today's society, increasing stress, depression and anxiety as we struggle to make sense of what is going on in the world. The realization that there is little we can do to change or control the situation makes things all the more difficult. I help you to see that there is hope and optimism for a brighter future if we take the time to focus on the things that we can change and control in our lives. Results have been amazing for the majority of those I work with, and I would welcome the opportunity to work with you.
