Therapists in Tucson, AZ

In my 10+ years of working with youth, adults, and families, I have had the honor of walking alongside trauma survivors of all ages as they reclaim their lives and reconnect with their authenticity. My clients have taught me about humility, strength, joy, and courage. I believe it is a privilege to be a part of your journey and will gratefully receive feedback to make sure our relationship is a healing experience in your life.

Hi! I am a Licensed Associate Counselor & I enjoy working with both teens and adults. I have a passion for older adolescents & transition-aged youth (16-26yrs). I will meet you where you are, from a warm & nonjudgmental place. I approach counseling from a person-centered, strengths-based & identity-affirming approach. I believe that everyone deserves to feel safe, heard & empowered to live in joy as their authentic selves. I consider empathy, validation & humor as the key to building a strong therapeutic alliance. "If a person is understood, he or she (or they) belongs." -Carl Rogers

Currently unable to accept new clients. Something has happened or is happening in your life that has you feeling disconnected – from yourself and others. You are likely either numbed out much of the time or your emotions are all over the place. You want to feel more grounded, connected, whole, and alive. You are ready to take a chance, reach out, and get some help to do all that.

I know that therapy can often be a daunting process and finding the right therapist is not always easy. I bring nearly 14 years of therapeutic experience to help you achieve your goals in therapy.

In the first session I focus on what is on your mind, knowing there may be more to discover. My experience is with a wide range of problems, such as depression, anxiety, trauma, self-esteem, relationships, work. Sometimes we move quickly. Other times we must take our time, patiently and with compassion. We talk about what you tell me, how this shows up in sessions, and we add important links from the past. The therapy has a foundation both in my expertise and in our forming a unique relationship with respect for what each of us brings to the work.

I work with a variety of clients who experience a variety of concerns related to unhealthy or poor coping skills, life transitions, and finding personal meaning.Whether the concern feels minute or overwhelming, I believe that most concerns can be addressed, reversed, or reduced by changing the way that one thinks about the situation and implementing new strategies of problem solving. If a client is willing to change, and persistent in their efforts towards changing, they can make their goals a reality.

I appreciate working with individuals who experience (PTSD), anxiety, depression, and personality disorders. I believe that everyone has all that they need to reach their full potential as human beings, and I am honored to be a part of the process of their growth and discovery. I am trained to provide individual psychotherapy to adolescents and adults, ages 16 and older. I am certified to provide Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and am trained in Levels I and II Hypnosis. I provide these services within a humanistic framework in which I appreciate the resiliency of the individual.

Changing and healing are possible! They happen with intention, guidance, “facing in”, courage, and empathy. These are my guiding principles. My practice invites anyone who wants to dig in and do the work. I am passionate about my field, and people in general. We have lost our way with connection, and I work to restore it in my office. I respect every single client who walks through my door because I know how hard it is to take that first step. But it is the first step that starts the journey.

Sometimes, situations and feelings are too much to bear alone. In therapy, you have a chance to be heard, to be seen and valued, and to express your deepest feelings. With a gentle and compassionate presence, I create a safe place for you to go within and find the core of who you are--and from that place, be guided. With a nonjudgmental and caring outlook, I invite awareness, acceptance, and appreciation of all emotions and their expression, including the difficult ones, giving them room to BE, and then they can change.

Compassion, warmth and curiosity guide my therapeutic style. My work and intention as a therapist is to cultivate deeper self-awareness, inner-attentiveness and meaningful connection. My work stems from the intersection of person centered therapy, wellness-based modalities and cognitive behavioral therapy. Meaning that I work with individuals, to curate a meaningful and individualized experience to meet their unique needs.

My approach to therapy is to listen with a warm and empathic ear so that you can feel heard and begin to heal. I believe you have it within you to grow and change, and my role is to guide therapy and encourage you along the way. I will provide you with feedback and insight and consider myself to be a partner in your healing journey.

Please note that I am not accepting new clients at this time. If you are struggling with an eating disorder, depression, anxiety, substance abuse or trauma, please know that there is hope and healing for you. I enjoy walking along side people overcoming these disorders and being able to find out what true recovery means. I believe that the therapeutic relationship is an important one and that a person must have a good relationship with their therapist while the therapist utilizes therapeutic treatments that work.

As a Licensed Substance Abuse Counselor (LISAC), my clients may be struggling with generational patterns of substance abuse and seeking new coping mechanisms. They desire to break free from this cycle, addressing underlying mental health issues like depression, anxiety, or PTSD. They want to build healthier relationships, improve communication, and establish strong boundaries. They seek support to navigate their journey with empathy and understanding, aiming for self-awareness, healing, and a sense of empowerment.

Greetings and thank you for stopping by. I am currently accepting new clients and I am only doing telehealth session. What I value most is a deep knowledge of the self, and how to eradicate past core belief systems that no longer serve us as we evolve into our true nature. If you find yourself struggling to transform your unhealthy habits and patterns, now is the time to change. This is your life, and learning to let go of the old, outdated beliefs takes courage and skills. I would love to foster your growth on your journey forward.

I welcome clients who are dealing with specific challenges as well as those who feel stuck, lost, or even unable to find words for their experiences. Our past experiences inform our best characteristics, and they cause us to develop coping skills that no longer work and keep us blocked from the life we want to have. My goal is to support you in shifting your relationship to past events and experiences to create the conditions for new, more adaptive coping strategies to emerge.
