Family Therapy in Tucson, AZ

Desert Life Psychotherapy provides a space to explore emotional and relational difficulties related to depression, anxiety, family conflict, and interpersonal struggles in day to day life. I provide counseling to teens and adults who are ready to begin understanding themselves in order to create a brighter and more productive future. I am most effective at treating individuals and families who are ready to understand the underlying issues leading to current symptoms through self-exploration, and are looking for insight to create lasting change in their lives.

The essence of my counseling approach is that I know each person to be whole and unique regardless of what is currently being experienced. I help clients focus on areas of difficulty with kind acceptance. Knots of anxiety, depression and unhappiness unravel and resolve into greater peace. One begins to know oneself as bigger than the problem. I teach cognitive behavioral skills of mindfulness, centering and focusing to allow a greater repertoire of responses to habitual problem areas. I provide a safe place to explore one's deeper self and resolve issues that block happiness and the realization of potential.

"What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us." Ralph Waldo Emerson. Using a holistic approach in therapy we will explore the mind, body and spirit connection. We will learn balance and build resilience through the power of self-discovery, thus improving your quality of life. Negative thought patterns and beliefs will be identified and challenged through DBT, mindfulness, and EMDR. When needed we may create healthy eating habits and a healthy relationship with exercise. Cultivating your spirituality to relieve fear and nurture an attitude of gratitude and abundance is encouraged.

I have worked with clients of all ages and have effectively helped clients find relief from issues such as depression, sexual issues, anxiety, PTSD and communication difficulties. As a relational therapist, I work with couples and relationships of all types, including those in the LGBTQIA+, polyamorous, and kink communities. I also have a great deal of experience working with adolescents suffering from trauma and, oftentimes find it helpful to involve other family members to assist in providing support for one another.

I understand how difficult it can be to take the first step towards healing. To me, the most important aspect of psychotherapy is the relationship between therapist and client. I strive to provide an environment where clients feel safe to disclose private thoughts, feelings, dreams and feel comfortable taking emotional risks. Clients come to me seeking help with unresolved trauma, relationship difficulties, mood, and disordered eating. It is my privilege to work alongside others towards creating a more fulfilling and peaceful life.

My journey to becoming a Licensed Professional Counselor wasn't driven by a textbook, but by the human stories etched around me. Witnessing the struggles of friends and family battling mental health challenges sparked a deep empathy and a desire to empower them. This path has been fueled by years of experience, rigorous training, and a core belief: everyone deserves a safe space to heal. Let's build a bridge, not a wall, towards a healthier, happier you.

Hello, I’m Lianna! I am a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW), currently offering in-person services with L&C Therapy. I am an eager, dedicated and passionate social worker providing services to children, teens and families. I have worked with diverse cultural groups and understand various points of views and values. I am always rooting for my clients, while advocating for what they want for themselves (and/or family). I strive to provide a safe space and understanding where I encourage autonomy and assist with self- discovery.

Things happen to us everyday which impact and change who we are and how we though the world. My twenty-five plus years of working in this field with individual's of diverse ages, cultures and back grounds have proven this to be true. I believe my role as a therapist is to support others in identifying "their" purpose while growing their mental, emotional and physical health. The passion for supporting others in the process of gaining insight and identifying positive changes toward their future is "my" purpose.
