Therapists in Arizona

Hello, I am glad you took the time to read my biography. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor who has a heart for people who are looking for empowerment and growth. I personally know what this feels like and how difficult it can be. I was blessed to have people in my life to help me during my "trying times." Honestly, I still do. I am Bi-lingual, (Spanish) and have been practicing for 13 years. I have worked with teenagers, adults, and couples. I do not work with children due to my lack of training. My experience entails working with addictions and various disorders. I believe in both therapy and medication and am cultural competent to utilize as resources. My heart is working with trauma and am certified in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I believe that my job is to have my clients get to the point where they are no longer needing my services. That's right, to get myself fired! I believe that we were created in the image of the Creator which means the ability to love and be loved and to have the freedom to make wise decisions which help navigate us through this journey we are on. Thank you again for reading my biography. I wish you the freedom you are looking for and believe YOU ARE WORTH IT!

Hello, my name is Collette Jones, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Louisiana and Arizona. I became a counselor because I believe deeply in the power of being heard and supported during life’s most challenging moments. Therapy is not about “fixing” someone—it is about helping people recognize their own strengths, gain new skills, and feel empowered to create the changes they want in their lives. I specialize in working with children, adolescents, and adults who may be struggling with anxiety, depression, identity concerns, or family and relationship issues. With young clients, I focus on creating a safe, engaging, and age-appropriate space where they can express themselves and learn coping strategies that fit their world.
