Hi! Are you especially creative or nonconforming? Are you mystically inclined or grappling with the implications of spiritual experiences you’ve had? Do you identify as neurodivergent or have trouble fitting in or knowing how to relate in the “normative” world? If any of these apply, you may have come to the right place. I specialize in working with people who are discovering and/or embracing particularly uncommon ways of living or experiencing life. Confusion, self-doubt, grief, fear, or difficult past experiences may feel like great challenges to the process of opening to who you truly are. You might wonder if there is a way.

My name is Crystal Clune, and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist that specializes in working with children and adolescents and teens. I have worked with school-age children since 2009. My approach to therapy is very client-centered and strength-based. I believe that the client is the expert of themselves and sometimes they just need guidance in re-finding their true selves. I work with all school-age children (ages 5-19) that are struggling with depression, anxiety, family issues, school issues, behavioral issues at home and at school, self-esteem, and trauma.

Hi! My name is Sam and I am a licensed marriage and family therapist seeing clients virtually in both California and Arizona. I am passionate about helping young adults navigate their way through the world of grief, and the various emotions and struggles it brings with it. The majority of my practice focuses on processing the layers of your grief, and the anger, sadness, guilt, shame, denial, and shock that comes with it all. It also focuses on finding an acceptance of how you can live a new life without your loved one, and the secondary losses involved.

We all have a need for connection, love and support. When we share our stories, we can form a new standpoint and choose different pathways to walk in this life. When we face life’s difficulties, I believe it is possible to find new perspectives and cultivate hope. Moving forward together, we can make a plan for change and recovery based on your goals. My style of relating to others is warm, caring, and collaborative. I offer a therapy experience grounded in respect, truth, objective reality, and compassion. I love to find the humor in everyday life, as humor can help us to withstand hardships.

Maybe you're in a tough place in life and need some help finding a direction. Or perhaps you're struggling to find connection, and support. Perhaps you're struggling with depression, and anxiety, and you're trying to feel something different. Or maybe, the current state of the world has affected you, your family or your children. We all suffer, and sometimes we need help, and I'd like to acknowledge you for trying to find an answer. Therapy can be place where we learn to address our suffering by taking power over it, through learning about what we can change. Are you ready for something different in your life?

Children, adolescents, adults and parents often find themselves stuck in a place where they need an outside source of support, stability and guidance. The many emotions that provide us with such joy, can also cause us pain and suffering. We are sometimes looking for the solid ground that a therapy process can provide. You may need a place to find your voice, find your strength and face your challenges in a way that feels less alone and isolating. Having a witness to our inner struggles and experiences can be remarkably helpful. As a clinician, my goal is to listen deeply and intently to your personal and subjective experience.

Realizing there are times that are too overwhelming to handle on your own is scary. My approach to psychotherapy is to create a warm, nonjudgmental, and safe environment that supports adolescents, families and adults as they learn to navigate through difficult life circumstances. I encompass a gentle yet direct approach with my clients, and ensure every unique individual diversity is honored and respected. I draw upon therapeutic modalities that help the individual re-establish a relationship with their lost inner strengths and open new perspectives that foster more self love and compassion.
