Stress Therapists in Tucson, AZ

You deserve to take time for yourself and figure out how to experience joy and peace everyday. If you are in the midst of pregnancy or postpartum or you are experiencing anxiety or a life transition life can feel completely overwhelming. There is a lot that comes with different stages of life, the new anxieties, the uncertainty, the intrusive thoughts, the overwhelming stress. And the big question of how to integrate all of the new experiences into your identity without losing yourself. Right now you feel helpless but it doesn't have to stay that way!

Challenged with cumulative stress, anxiety, addictions, or PTS? Perhaps medications are not enough and you want to function better at home, work, & in relationships. Maybe you carry shame/guilt due to behaviors or dysregulated mood and attention and are looking for compassion with direct yet gentle guidance to engage your internal wisdom for self-healing. We all struggle at times in our lives, some times harder than others. Having a seasoned professional counselor, with lived experience, who can listen, authentically empathize, and provide accountability, can help you regain energy, stability, and confidence to do and be your best.

Now accepting new clients. I enjoy working with people looking to find answers to current stressors, working on depression or anxiety, past trauma, or who are facing issues that develop with age. If you’re feeling stuck, stressed, worried about the world – or at a crossroads between staying where you’re at or building a happier life, I’d love to work with you!

From the outside it looks like you have a great life. But on the inside, you never feel good enough and are overwhelmed. It’s exhausting trying to keep it all together and you don’t think you can do it anymore. You give so much to others while you continue to come last. Life has become unmanageable or maybe you look to others for validation or a sense of self. It is possible to find relief, connect to yourself and feel balanced. It is time for change.

I am licensed in Arizona with 6 years of professional therapy experience. Before that, I worked in education for many years. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, coping with grief and loss, & depression. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment.

The therapeutic relationship plays an important role in the healing process. I emphasize one's emotional life and history in order to work through uncomfortable experiences and explore what lies underneath the symptoms. My approach is nondirective, curious, and supportive while providing compassion, understanding, and empathy in a non-judgmental and relaxed therapeutic setting online. If you're a student, professional or person with a disability, I would like to provide you with support in managing stress, improving relationships, self-advocacy, exploring career goals and/or gaining a better understanding of yourself.

In my practice I typically work with adults individually (in one-on-one sessions). Many of my clients have experienced problems with mood, particularly anxiety, depression, and other mood disorders. I especially enjoy working with individuals who are needing assistance with difficult relationships, trauma recovery, transitional life issues, and stress management. Additionally, I have extensive experience working with clients diagnosed with concurrent medical conditions.

You feel stressed out and exhausted. Between work and family life, you are constantly busy but as soon as you lay down at night your mind starts racing and it keeps you from the sleep you so desperately need. You feel like you are working all the time, but you never get anything accomplished. You can’t relax, even when you have down time, and it’s hard to be alone with your thoughts. You feel like you are failing in the areas of your life that are the most important to you. If you could just break out of this unhealthy cycle, you would be happier and more successful in both your personal and professional life.

Stess, anxiety, and unhealed trauma impacts our relationships, our jobs, our families, and even how we feel about ourselves. Chronic stress and unresolved trauma can impact our brains along with our nervous system. When this happens, we can feel as if we are stuck in our relationships & jobs or even trapped in our own lives.

Are you looking to improve your self-esteem, consider important life decisions, or finally overcome your trauma? I would consider it an honor to accompany you in discovering the truest and most whole version of yourself.

There is no one-size-fits-all approach to improving mental health because your life is entirely unique. I am excited to build a partnership with you to identify the goals that will improve your quality of life and then pursue them.

“We all have a past. We have all made choices that maybe weren’t the best ones. None of us are completely innocent, but we all get a fresh start everyday to a be a better person than we were yesterday.” Life’s challenges are an opportunity for growth! I believe therapy has the capacity to provide insight into ourselves, help us understand who we are and why, and increase awareness and authenticity.
