Female Therapists in Phoenix, AZ

You gain strength, courage and confidence by every experience in which you stop to look fear in the face. I believe that the therapeutic journey can be an important part of helping you understand those experiences. I am passionate for getting to know people and providing support as you navigate through transitions in life.

As a Marriage and Family Therapist, I believe in providing an empathetic and non-judgmental experience throughout the therapy process. I offer compassionate support and guidance to individuals, couples, and families.

I work collaboratively to identify strengths and resources in order to help clients transform the way they navigate life and work toward healing and change.

I provide a safe and supportive environment to help client's deal with general mental health problems, difficult life circumstances, and self-improvement. In-person and phone sessions are available. Specialty areas are treating anxiety, trauma, depression, mood disorders, and LGBTIQA+ related issues.

When an individual comes to me for psychotherapy/counseling, I recognize that seeking help is an often difficult first step. I consider it an honor to work with each client and provide a safe environment that enables growth, healing, insight, and hope for the future.
