Hello and welcome. I am a Licensed Associate Counselor working under Supervision at Better Days Behavioral Health in Chandler with extensive experience in both public agencies and private practice. I provide general mental health counseling for teens and adults with a specialization in treating Substance Use Disorders (SUDs). I offer in-person sessions at our office in Chandler and via telehealth, if desired.

I am always honored to have the opportunity to share someone’s path with them as they seek personal growth and wellness. I am dually licensed as a 'Licensed Professional Counselor' and 'Licensed Independent Substance Abuse Counselor' in the state of Arizona. I am seasoned with over 20-years experience in working with individuals, children, youth, young adults, as well as families in various settings.

My ideal client seeks a safe space to navigate life's challenges with empathy and guidance. They may struggle with trauma, substance use, or chronic illness, longing for relief and empowerment. They desire to heal, rebuild self-esteem, and find resilience amidst adversity. Their goal is holistic well-being, embracing growth and reclaiming joy in their journey. With tailored therapies and a strengths-based approach, I aim to support their path to healing and improved quality of life.

My ideal client is someone who is seeking counseling for experiencing anxiety/depressions, or for their substance use, or is court mandated because of substance use, or is impacted by substance use or an addiction. The client has a desire to learn or want something to change. I can provide support and guidance in a safe, non-judgemental environment to address their immediate need as they go through a process of discovery and healing.

Change is a process and not an event. Whether you interested in establishing a new relationship to substances, addressing relapse, or have been sober for a while and want to work on underlying issues, I welcome you. I believe that most often substance use is a symptom of underlying issues and people turn to unhealthy behaviors to manage. If these issues are not addressed a person will relapse. I specialize in co-occurring disorders including Trauma, Depression, Bi-polar Disorder, and Anxiety. I have over twenty five years of personal and professional experience in addiction recovery.

Hello, I am Michelle Gallagher. I have over 20 years of experience as a therapist and have a private practice. I work with adults who experience symptoms of trauma, attachment issues, substance use disorders, mood disorders, grief and loss, stress management, and a variety of other issues that impact your life, and the lives of those who care about you. I have a small office in North Scottsdale. Due to COVID-19, HIPAA approved video platform sessions are also available.

I am a substance abuse counselor who works with those who use substances (e.g. drugs and alcohol) as well as those who use other addictive behaviors (e.g. gambling, sex, internet, self-harm, etc.) to cope with their anxiety, depression, and past trauma. I have experience working with adults who suffer from anxiety, depression, trauma, bipolar disorders, and personality disorders along with substance use disorders and other addictive behaviors. I give strength to my clients by helping them to learn about their addiction, their emotions, their strengths and weaknesses, and how to use them to begin recovery and have long term sobriety.

Immediate availability in person and telehealth! Starting therapy can feel daunting. I commend you for taking this step and hope you know that you are not alone. No matter what therapist is best suited for your needs, I wish you the best on your journey of personal growth. To help you understand if I’m the right person to be your partner in that journey, a little about me: I completed my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and French at Ohio Wesleyan University and then completed my Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at the University of Toledo.

I want to teach you new skills and ways to make lasting changes that will smooth out your journey not just now, but in the future.
