My name is Rachel Sartin, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and the founder of Heart & Hustle Counseling. I specialize in trauma therapy and sex therapy, and I am deeply passionate about helping individuals and couples heal from the lasting impact of traumatic experiences. At Heart & Hustle Counseling, I work with individuals who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected after trauma. I have a particular passion for supporting individuals, who often carry the weight of repeated exposure to high-stress and traumatic events. I understand the unique pressures of these roles and strive to create a safe, respectful space where healing can happen without judgment or shame. I also specialize in working with couples, helping them move through relational ruptures, rebuild trust, and reconnect emotionally and physically. Whether couples are navigating betrayal, disconnection, or the effects of trauma on intimacy, I support them in restoring closeness, improving communication, and fostering long-term growth. I believe healing is possible—even after profound pain. My approach is trauma-informed, collaborative, and rooted in compassion. At Heart & Hustle Counseling, my goal is to help clients reconnect with themselves and their relationships, build resilience, and move forward with greater clarity, confidence, and connection.

Hi, my name is Teilor, and I specialize in working with individuals who are navigating anxiety, depression, and life’s deeper questions. I take an integrative approach that includes practical tools to help manage overwhelming emotions, while also drawing from existential therapy to explore the "why" beneath the surface. If you’ve been feeling anxious or down, it’s totally understandable to want some relief—but my approach is to take a deeper look at what those feelings might be trying to tell you.

Trauma and PTSD
Chronic Illness
I’m a licensed clinical psychologist who works with adults, adolescents, and families navigating anxiety, trauma, chronic stress, and major life transitions. My work is grounded, relational, and deeply attuned to the nervous system, with a focus on helping people feel safer in their bodies, clearer in their minds, and more connected to themselves and others. I take an integrative, trauma-informed approach to therapy, meaning I don’t believe in one-size-fits-all treatment. Instead, I draw from relational, psychodynamic, somatic, and polyvagal-informed frameworks to tailor therapy to your unique history, strengths, and goals. For many clients, our work involves understanding emotional patterns, healing the impact of past experiences, and learning practical ways to regulate stress and overwhelm in daily life. A central part of my work is creating a therapeutic relationship that feels safe, collaborative, and non-judgmental. I move at a pace that respects your readiness and capacity, especially if you’ve experienced trauma, medical challenges, or long-standing stress. Alongside deeper insight work, I often incorporate psychoeducation and concrete tools so therapy feels both meaningful and useful beyond the session. Clients often describe me as warm, thoughtful, and deeply present. My goal is not to “fix” you- I fundamentally believe that you're not broken ( and we haven't even met yet). My job is to help you better understand yourself, strengthen your inner resources, and build a life that feels more regulated, connected, and aligned. Whether you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or simply wanting to understand yourself more deeply, therapy can be a place to pause, reflect, and begin meaningful change.

I’m a husband and dad to three boys (ages 16, 13 and 8), and family is a huge part of my life. We live on a 20-acre homestead where we raise chickens, goats, pigs, and cows, and we spend a lot of time in the garden. Life on the farm keeps me grounded and reminds me daily of the value of patience, hard work, and slowing down to enjoy what really matters. Faith and community are also central for me. I’m actively involved in my church, and I see my work as an extension of that calling to walk alongside others. I’ve always had an entrepreneurial streak. Alongside my therapy work, I am starting a tech start-up, I’ve run an online store, and I even dabble in Bitcoin mining. I enjoy the challenge of building things from the ground up and thinking outside the box. I also read a lot, and my libertarian leanings have been shaped by writers like Murray Rothbard. The conservative/libertarian focus on freedom, personal responsibility and low time preference connects deeply with how I approach life and therapy: we’re at our best when we are free to live with responsibility in society, own our choices, and pursue truth apart from coercion. When it comes to therapy itself, I integrate my faith with practical, proven methods. I use Christian Counseling, CBT, Reality Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and the Gottman Method to help people grow emotionally, spiritually, and relationally. My goal is to give you a space where your values are respected, your faith is honored, and you feel equipped to face life’s challenges with hope and clarity. If you’re looking for a therapist who understands the importance of faith, family, freedom, and practical tools for change, I’d love to walk with you on your journey.

Greetings, I'm Anita Smith! If this is your first time seeking help, I would like to commend you for your courage, and if you have had therapy before, I hope I say something that connects for you. I'm curious to know what brought you here and what you would like to get out of therapy? I specialize in helping individuals cope with the different kinds of losses: 1) Primary losses - the death of a loved one, friend or pet, break-up, separation, divorce, loss of job, loss of money, the victim of a crime and losses due to Covid19 2)Secondary losses - moving, illness, changes and success; 3) Limbo losses - Covid 19, waiting for the outcome of a test result, a lawsuit, separation, not knowing the outcome; 4) Complicated losses - primary, secondary and limbo losses going on at the same time. The reactions to loss could be feeling of anxiety, depression, helpless, fearful, emptiness, despair, pessimistic, irritability, anger, guilty, restlessness, loss of concentration, hope, motivation, energy, change in appetite, sleep pattern and a tendency to be more fatigued and error prone. Are you experiencing any of those feelings? I also work with individuals who desire prayer before our sessions. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in the state of Texas for 25+ years, a National Certified Counselor (NCC) for 35+ years, and a Board Certified Coach (BCC) for 10 years.

We live in a world where it’s easy to get so caught up in the doing that we lose touch with the being. We struggle with defining our values, deciding how we want to fit into the world, and finding the qualities and attitudes that we resonate with. But therapy can help us rediscover our authentic self, our best self, and find internal consistency with who we want to be and how we show up in our lives. I focus on helping adults navigate the complexities of life, particularly those impacted by trauma, anxiety, and unhealthy boundaries. I believe that true healing begins with understanding your values, honoring your experiences, and cultivating self-compassion.

There will always be room for suggestions concerning our work together, including keeping each other accountable.

Hi, my name is Mark. Thank you for considering me as your therapist. It would be my pleasure to get to work with you! I am a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist; that means that not only do I work with individuals who experience all kinds of mental health challenges, but I also specialize in systemic, or relational therapy - working with couples, families & groups. I am a Presidential Member of the American Association of Christian Counselors. If you want your faith included in your therapy, please let me know; your sessions will be as "spiritual" as you'd like, and no more. I have been providing therapy and counseling since 2016, and most recently worked as the therapy manager for a clinic that has four locations. Though I have worked with all populations (youngest 5 years old and oldest 94), young kids have trouble sitting still in front of a camera. Children under the age of 15 would be better served in an office setting, in my opinion. I have been with my amazing wife for over 35 years now, and have two wonderful adult children. I enjoy sports, music and all kinds of "outdoorzie" stuff. I most of all just enjoy time with my family. Most of my clients profess to sincerely enjoy working with me; I tend to connect with my clients on a deeper level, and in a more meaningful way, than some other therapists. Many say that they or their children work better with me than any other therapist, counselor or doctor they've experienced. I am humbled and immensely grateful for their kind words. I offer my clients a soft place to fall in their hurts and struggles while providing them a firm place to stand in their healing and growth. Always, in a judgment-free way.

With over 20 years of clinical experience, I have dedicated my career to walking alongside individuals through their healing and growth journeys, beginning as a child and adolescent therapist before expanding my practice to work with adolescents and adults. My approach is grounded in evidence-based modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness, Trauma-Focused CBT, Cognitive Processing Therapy, and my training as a Certified Clinical Trauma Specialist, always adapted to honor each client's unique story and strengths. I believe deeply in advocacy; both as something I practice on behalf of my clients and as a critical skill I help them develop for themselves, because sustainable wellness requires individuals to have the tools, voice, and confidence to advocate for their own needs. Beyond the therapy room, I extend this commitment to advocacy through my consulting work, partnering with organizations to build psychologically safe, inclusive, and equity-driven environments where all people can thrive.

Hi, my name is Vienna Aslanian, and I have been practicing as a licensed therapist since the beginning of 2017. I chose to become a therapist after practicing in the field of social work with children and families. Witnessing the trauma and the way that trauma impacted those individual lives caused me to develop an interest in and concern for individuals struggling with PTSD and childhood trauma. Seeing the intergenerational struggles and hearing people's personal stories on the matter made me interested in the field of therapy. I have always enjoyed listening to people's stories and making a genuine connection with someone. I believe in the healing power of therapy and the importance of the therapeutic relationship. I believe in the importance of active listening and supportive guidance. I believe in the importance of empathy and nonjudgment; I value making you feel cared about and understood. I hold myself to high expectations regarding reliability and consistency in order to provide the best support and care possible. I attend training regularly on the best and most effective practices/therapeutic modalities.

Frequently asked questions

Why filter by Arizona rather than a city like Phoenix?

When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in Arizona. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across Arizona from Tucson to Mesa! If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near you in Arizona.

Will my therapist take Evernorth?

Yes! If you use Evernorth you’ll be asked to verify your Member ID at the time you book the appointment. However, if you don’t have Evernorth you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary.

How does the Specialty Filter work? Can I find a therapist that focuses on a specific issue?

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need.

Why use Gender, Age, and Identities filters?

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

What happens during the first therapy session?

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs. Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center.Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
