Therapists in Arizona

Hello and Good Morning! I'm a Licensed Psychologist based in Arizona. I received my Doctor of Psychology (PsyD) from Midwestern University, Glendale in 2020. I have 5 years of trained experience, between 2016-2021, and 3 years licensed experience since 2023. I help individuals struggling with experiences of stress, depression, anxiety, anger, and other concerns, to empower them to overcome barriers and build a life they want.

Hello, I’m Sanayah Marriott, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker serving adults in California, Arizona, and Hawaii. I provide therapy in English and Haitian Creole. With 20 years of military experience and nine years in addiction treatment, I understand the courage it takes to seek support while managing demanding responsibilities. I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, substance-use concerns, relationship difficulties, career stress, and major life transitions. You may appear strong and capable while privately feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, uncertain, or emotionally exhausted. Together, we will identify what keeps you stuck, strengthen your coping skills, and help you create a life that feels more balanced, meaningful, and aligned with who you are.

Hi, I’m Bithia, a bilingual clinical social worker based in Phoenix, Arizona. For the past decade, I have had the privilege of supporting children, adolescents, adults, and families through a wide range of life challenges. My clinical experience includes helping new parents navigate perinatal mood and anxiety disorders, including anxiety, depression, and OCD. I also work with parents to strengthen their relationships with their children and develop effective parenting strategies that promote positive behavior. In addition, I help individuals heal from traumatic experiences, navigate grief and loss. My goal is to provide a safe, compassionate, and supportive space where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered to create meaningful, lasting change in their lives.

Mi experiencia clínica incluye ayudar a nuevos padres a manejar los síntomas relacionados con el período perinatal (trastornos del estado de ánimo perinatales), apoyar a los padres a fortalecer la relación con sus hijos y aprender estrategias de crianza más efectivas para mejorar el comportamiento de los niños. Ademas, ayudo a personas en el proceso de sanar experiencias traumáticas, afrontar el duelo y la pérdida.

If you recently lost coverage or had an insurance change, I currently have openings and can discuss options. My mission is to empower individuals to navigate life’s challenges with resilience, clarity, and confidence. I take a holistic, client-centered approach rooted in the biopsychosocial model—addressing the interconnectedness of mind, body, and environment to support lasting well-being. Drawing from evidence-based modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills, Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), I tailor each treatment plan to meet the unique needs of the person in front of me. I am also actively pursuing certification in Mind-Body Medicine through the Center for Mind Body Medicine and frequently integrate these techniques—such as meditation, guided imagery, and breathwork—into sessions to support emotional balance and self-regulation. With extensive training in geriatric assessment, I have a deep passion for working with older adults, helping them maintain cognitive and emotional vitality in later life. As a certified clinical supervisor with the Arizona Board of Behavioral Health Examiners, I am also committed to mentoring and developing the next generation of compassionate, skilled social workers. Above all, I strive to create a warm, supportive space where clients feel heard, valued, and empowered to move toward meaningful change.

Hi, I’m Scott, a Licensed Professional Counselor who works with adults and couples navigating anxiety, trauma, depression, substance use, and relationship challenges. Many of the people I work with feel stuck in painful patterns, overwhelmed by emotions, or unsure how to move forward despite wanting real change. Therapy can be a place to slow down, make sense of what’s happening beneath the surface, and begin creating a different way of living. I also specialize in men’s mental health and supporting veterans facing the unique stressors of service, transition, and identity. I provide a nonjudgmental, supportive space where you can safely explore your experiences while gaining insight into thoughts, behaviors, and relationship patterns that may no longer serve you. My trauma-informed approach is compassionate and collaborative, balancing empathy with gentle, honest feedback to support meaningful change.

Seeking support takes courage, and finding the right therapist is an important first step.

Throughout my career, I have worked in community mental health centers, integrated medical clinics, and private practice, giving me experience supporting individuals from diverse backgrounds and with a wide range of mental health concerns. I have experience treating anxiety, depression, PTSD, bipolar disorder, schizoaffective disorder, ADHD, grief and loss, parenting concerns, relationship challenges, and many other emotional and behavioral issues. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, struggling with a major life transition, or looking to improve your overall well-being, I am here to support you. I incorporate evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing, Solution-Focused Therapy, psychoeducation, and strengths-based interventions. Every client is different, and I work with you to develop a treatment approach that best fits your goals and preferences. My hope is that you leave each session feeling supported, empowered, and equipped with tools to help you move forward with greater confidence and resilience. I would be honored to be part of your journey toward improved mental health and a more fulfilling life.

Clients often describe me as energetic, compassionate, authentic, direct, and refreshingly real.

I genuinely care about the people I work with and believe that meaningful connection is one of the greatest catalysts for healing.

I believe healing happens through connection, clarity, and gentle, consistent support—and I’m here to walk with you through that process.

I am first and foremost a human which means that we have more in common than not. I identify as a sis gender, neurodivergent,, , African American/Black American woman, from the south and this shows up in sessions through cultural compassion for the clients I work with, open and respectful communication,, and sometimes the urge to talk more but instead my own skills to maintain a therapeutic and professional flow. I have an abundance of lived experiences and find some of them share worthy at times, when there are similar to experiences clients discuss.. I do enjoy levity when I experience it and bring that into the sessions at times. I love working with clients who are interested in CBT and DBT because I I enjoy practicing my skills ijn my personal life and sometimes something helps a client and my own personal development simultaneously and that’ lights up my heart. .

Hello! I have been in practice for 5 years predominantly in the beautiful Flagstaff, AZ area. I am now located in lovely Payson, AZ seeing clients both over telehealth and in person at a gorgeous historic house-office.

Hi, I’m Jennifer, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). I work with teens and adults who may be feeling overwhelmed, stuck, disconnected, or simply ready for something in their life to change. I believe therapy should be a place where you can show up as you are without feeling judged or pressured to have everything figured out. My style is warm, kind, and grounded. I genuinely enjoy getting to know people and hearing their stories. I want to understand the whole you, not just the struggles that brought you to therapy. I’ll listen, ask questions, and offer support and guidance while we work together to figure out what feels most helpful for you. I believe there is no one-size-fits-all approach to therapy. What works well for one person may not work for another, so I’m comfortable with a little trial and error. We’ll talk about what is working, what isn’t, and adjust along the way. I want therapy to feel like something we are doing together, with your needs, goals, strengths, and experiences guiding our work. Most importantly, I want you to feel comfortable being yourself in our sessions. You don’t have to come in knowing exactly what to say or where to start. We can figure that out together. My hope is to create a space where you feel heard, supported, and understood while helping you recognize your strengths, learn more about yourself, and make meaningful changes in your life.

Welcome to therapy. My name is Adlin Morales Aguilu, and I am a licensed psychotherapist here to support you on your journey towards greater well-being and personal growth. As your therapist, my role is to provide a safe and confidential space for you to explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences. Together, we will work collaboratively to understand the challenges you're facing and develop strategies to help you overcome them. I draw from various therapeutic approaches, tailoring our sessions to meet your unique needs and goals. Whether you're seeking support for managing stress, navigating relationships, coping with difficult emotions, or any other concern, I am here to help you navigate through it. My approach is compassionate, nonjudgmental, and client-centered. I believe in your innate capacity for healing and resilience, and I am committed to empowering you to make positive changes in your life. Please feel free to share openly and honestly during our sessions. Your confidentiality is of the utmost importance, and I am here to support you every step of the way. I look forward to working with you and supporting you on your journey towards greater well-being.

I’m a warm, down-to-earth therapist with more than 15 years of experience helping people navigate anxiety, trauma, relationship challenges, major life transitions, grief, burnout, emotional overwhelm, and the seasons of life when everything simply feels like a lot. My background is a little different from the traditional therapy path. I’ve worked in schools, community mental health, and crisis intervention settings. I’ve supported veterans, first responders, survivors of trauma and abuse, neurodivergent individuals, parents, professionals, and people facing some of life’s hardest moments. These experiences have taught me how to stay grounded when things feel chaotic and why it’s so important to see the whole person - not simply a diagnosis or list of symptoms. My style is conversational, collaborative, and practical. I’ll give you space to process, but I’m not a therapist who simply nods and asks, “How does that make you feel?” We’ll get curious about patterns, relationships, boundaries, past experiences, and the things that keep showing up in your life. We’ll explore where those patterns came from, how they affect you now, and what you may want to change. I believe insight is only part of the work. Together, we’ll develop practical strategies you can use outside of therapy to manage anxiety, regulate emotions, improve communication, strengthen relationships, establish boundaries, and navigate difficult seasons. You don’t need to know exactly what you need from therapy before you begin. Sometimes it starts with simply recognizing that something isn’t working anymore. My role isn’t to tell you how to live your life - it’s to help you understand yourself more clearly, build skills and confidence, and create meaningful change.

I’m not a “just sit there and nod” kind of therapist. I show up as real, engaged, and honest, because therapy should feel like a conversation that actually goes somewhere. I’ll support you, but I’ll also challenge you when you’re stuck in patterns that aren’t serving you. You don’t have to have the right words or a clear starting point, just showing up is enough. From there, we’ll figure it out together in a way that feels genuine and useful.
