Whole Hearts Counseling provides compassionate and strength-based therapy to support you in living life wholeheartedly. Many of my clients have been very diligent in their healing process and have explored a wide array of services from yoga to acupuncture and everything between! Though they have experienced some sense of “better”, they do not feel entirely whole or fully settled in their bodies. With compassion and humor (Yes, humor! We are allowed to have fun on this journey of healing), we begin to explore with curiosity what may be blocking the ability for you to shift into greater connection with self and others.

I am currently not taking on any new clients. I am a licensed clinical psychologist practicing in Scottsdale, Arizona. I specialize in treating adults with anxiety disorders (e.g., obsessive-compulsive, phobias, panic, trauma, social anxiety) and depression. I do psychotherapy the way I'd like to receive it; I use a Rogerian client-centered, empathetic stance with unconditional positive regard. I modify my approach depending on each individual's needs (e.g., CBT or more directive when requested by clients). I also treat impression management (e.g, acting like a "chameleon").

Have you tried traditional talk therapy before but are now looking for something that goes deeper? Maybe life has forced you to slow down due to the loss of a loved one or another significant change. Perhaps you’ve just come to realize that despite all this go-go-go, you actually feel like you’re still lacking direction, purpose, and deep connection with yourself and those close to you. You don’t want to have to “rehash” the past or revisit every detail of what you’ve experienced, but you know that life can feel different than it does today. You believe long-term change is possible…you just need some help getting there.

If this is your story I will hold space for you to get curious about exploring relational trauma and taking steps to heal from these experiences, while making necessary changes to build your self esteem and learning how to set and maintain boundaries.

I believe in the innate power in us to evolve and resolve. Sometimes when we are faced with challenging situations, our perspectives become hazy and we are unable to connect with our selves. I use eclectic and holistic modes of therapy to help people connect with their inner selves to move on in their lives and reach their full potential. I am trained in DBT, CBT, ACT and am also a Certified EMDR provider. I also completed an externship in Emotionally focussed Therapy for Couples as positive relationships are imperative for our emotional, mental health.

I believe that everyone deserves the chance to build a life that they look forward to living, and I am passionate about working with clients to gain the tools they need to achieve this. Life is too precious to allow for painful past experiences and traumas to control you, troubling interpersonal challenges to hinder you, or to experience anxiety, anger and sadness more often than true happiness. Making the decision to seek out therapy can be difficult as is, so my goal as your therapist is to meet you where you are at and help you determine what your specific goals are and how we can achieve them.

I am a licensed psychologist with Clinical and Forensic Specialties.

I am a court-appointed evaluator for the Superior Court of Arizona, Maricopa County as listed on the AZPA Family Court Roster. I also provide evaluation services for a variety of issues within juvenile and family court affairs. I practice in Arizona and California.
