Interpersonal Therapists in Scottsdale, AZ

You've been taking care of others for as long as you can remember. You’ve always sacrificed your own well-being to help those around you. A friend broke up with her partner, so you’re the shoulder to cry on. There was a problem with a client at work, so you fixed it. Your husband and kids rely on you for everything from getting dressed to eating meals. “As long as everyone else is happy,” you tell yourself, “Then I’m fine.” But you’re not fine. You’ve completely lost touch with yourself and don’t have the time or energy to find your way back. You’re filled with guilt whenever you try to take a moment for yourself. It feels hopeless.

You aren't living up to your own ideal. You need things to be better - less stressful & overwhelming, more fulfilling & meaningful - but you're not sure how. You're ready to heal what's wounded & create the life that you envision for yourself with the support of a high level provider. Your wellness journey needs to consider you as a holistic person with services that address well-being across psychological, professional, health, social, spiritual & environmental domains. Our holistic & integrative psychology and psychiatry services are client-specific with emphasis on helping you feel your best as quickly and naturally as possible.

There is something you have been pondering for sometime now. Emotions have been all over the place for a while but you've been pushing through them day by day. Before it was working and you thought you had a good handle on them but it seems that now something is telling you it is finally time to reach out. Being overwhelmed, feeling alone and having your feelings seeming to be out of control is enough and it is getting harder to keep up with your every life and relationships feeling like this. All you wanna do is hide away and hope that either things get better or at the least no one will notice what is really going on.

Those who gravitate to me for therapy are often incredibly strong, high-functioning people who have already fought harder in life than anyone should have to, just to make it through. If this sounds like you, know that you already have my respect before you walk through the door. Perhaps you now find yourself in adulthood after a traumatic beginning, ready to break generational cycles of pain or patterns of abuse that you’ve seen, but it’s still a struggle despite your best efforts. It has been my honor to help such individuals and couples achieve emotional peace and relationship harmony that once felt out-of-reach to them.

Are you experiencing a major life change or maybe you are feeling stuck in your personal growth, comparing yourself to others, or only able to think in the past or the future? Life is full of changes and uncertainties, and I believe that therapy can be a valuable tool for helping individuals find clarity, purpose, and direction. I have experience working with clients dealing with a wide range of issues, including self-esteem, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, and life transitions.

Your anxiety is a car on a racetrack of thoughts where the only way off is a brief pit stop for repairs. But that only delays reentry to the same circular pattern. Your mind turns familiar scenarios, images, and disasters over and over again, plunging you into stomach-clenching agony. Stress from work, family, and other relationships only make it worse. The worry and fear get so bad sometimes that they boil over into panic. The shame of losing control causes the cycle to start all over again. So you become avoidant of the people and places that seem to trigger these difficult feelings.

You're someone seeking to improve your connection with your partner and develop a stronger bond. Or perhaps you're navigating personal hurdles such as anxiety, depression, grief, or significant life transitions, wanting to address these challenges to live your best life. Or you may be interested in premarital counseling to establish a solid foundation in your relationship. Ultimately, your goal is to cultivate deeper, more meaningful relationships with others and a sense of balance, joy, and fulfillment in your life.

I believe that change occurs when we are met with compassion, deep listening and provided with a sense of hope. I focus specifically on traumatic grief with an understanding there is no wrong way to feel, no timeline or expectations. My approach is individualized and draws upon several interventions such as the ATTEND Model, mindfulness and CBT. I come from a trauma-informed perspective and believe that each person's experience is unique with their own strengths to be utilized. Many of my clients have lost loved ones due to suicide, homicide, accidental deaths, medical malpractice, unresolved deaths and long term illnesses.

Hi and thanks for looking at my profile! I have been in the field for 20 years (licensed counselor for 15) and I have worked with many people of different ages and issues. The common thread I see is the need to be seen through eyes of compassion and to make sense of the struggles and experiences you’ve had. What is different about my work is that I have spent over a decade studying the energetic patterns behind the manifestation of psychological issues. Working with Chakra Psychology and astrological archetypes I assist you in understanding yourself and your patterns at a deeper level. I teach this method entitled Sacred Psychology.

I work specifically with couples who have discovered infidelity. Couples are traumatized when infidelity is discovered and the clinician needs to help the couple implement immediate steps to prevent further damage to the relationship. Counselor strategies for infidelity are much different than what a traditional counselor would utilize. When couples set up an appointment with me, they will get in quickly, and experience a specific treatment approach for infidelity. I also help couples with creating intimate communication, conflict skills, creating emotional and sexual intimacy, and increasing love and affection.

I specialize in families/couples, and I am an Idaho licensed LMFT and Arizona licensed LAMFT. Often clients seek therapy because they have become stuck. Sometimes relationships begin great, but life/situations cause a change to happen. We all have personal challenges, have stressful periods, or go through traumatic times. The desire to seek help to explore and process these problems can open the door to positive growth. I believe in the healing power of relationships: no matter the wounds, if all parties are willing to heal, I will help.

My therapy style is eclectic, meaning I pull from several different modalities of therapy. This is in large part due to my focus on person-centered therapy. I know that every client is different and based on the presenting issue the focus of treatment changes. I am also a firm believer that not every tool/skill works for every person. My goal is to find what works for my clients in a way that works for them. I have been a therapist for 8 years and have worked at all levels of care and in many different positions to be able to understand behavioral health care in a comprehensive way that looks at the whole person.
