I believe that every individual has the capacity for healing, growth, and resilience, and I am honored to walk alongside my clients as they navigate their unique journeys. My therapeutic approach is rooted in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) while integrating person-centered, strengths-based, and trauma-informed practices. I work collaboratively with clients to identify unhelpful patterns, develop practical coping strategies, and build the confidence needed to create meaningful and lasting change.

I have experience supporting individuals facing anxiety, depression, grief and loss, life transitions, relationship concerns, family conflict, stress management, self-esteem challenges, and emotional regulation.

Hi, I’m Lynnette Piña, the owner of Creative Waves Therapy and a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 10 years of experience working in the mental health field. I know that reaching out for therapy can feel intimidating (and honestly, even figuring out where to start can feel like a lot), so my goal is to make that first step feel a little less overwhelming. I believe therapy should be a space where you can show up as your full self, no judgment, no need to have the “perfect” words, and no pretending that everything is fine when it isn’t. Sometimes life can feel heavy, and it can be difficult to know how to move forward. Whether you’re carrying painful experiences, navigating relationships, or trying to understand yourself in a deeper way, you don’t have to do it alone. My goal is to create a space where you feel seen, heard, and supported as you begin your healing journey.

Hello, and congratulations on taking this step. Reaching out takes awareness, courage, and a real commitment to change — it requires to invite someone into your struggles. I've spent over 25 years working in behavioral health as a clinician, clinical supervisor, and clinical director. My career has taken me from a faith-based agency in New England to a community behavioral health center in northeastern Arizona, where I eventually led clinical services for 12 years, to providing counseling at Davis-Monthan Air Force Base — an experience that deepened my respect for military members and their families. I now own a private practice in Sahuarita, Arizona. My work focuses on helping individuals navigate trauma, anxiety, depression, stress, emotional overwhelm, and life transitions. I also welcome working with military veterans, people of faith, and individuals and families facing serious illness. In the spring of 2025, I was diagnosed with cancer. I have since completed treatment and am now cancer free — and that experience gave me a much deeper appreciation for what it means to face something that reshapes your world. I don't see therapy as simply treating a diagnosis. I see it as working with you as a whole person — your strengths, fears, hopes, values, pain, and goals. I'll listen carefully, but I'll also be active: helping you identify patterns, understand difficult thoughts and emotions, build coping skills, and take meaningful steps forward. I won't claim to be the expert on your life. My role is to walk alongside you and help guide the change process at a pace that feels respectful and manageable.

Hi, I’m a Bilingual Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor (LPC-S) with over 10 years of experience helping people who feel overwhelmed, stuck, emotionally exhausted, or simply unsure of where to begin. As a first-generation professional, I understand how family, culture, expectations, and life experiences can shape the way we see ourselves and navigate the world. I strive to create a space where all parts of your story are welcomed, respected, and understood. I earned my Master’s in Rehabilitation Counseling from Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center and am a Certified Clinical Anxiety Treatment Professional (CCATP) and Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP). I work with clients navigating anxiety, depression, stress, relationship challenges, career concerns, and major life transitions. Many of the people I work with are used to holding everything together on the outside while feeling overwhelmed on the inside. Therapy doesn’t have to be another place where you feel pressure to have everything figured out. My goal is to provide a space where you can slow down, feel understood, and talk honestly without judgment or pressure. Together, we’ll explore what may be keeping you stuck, recognize patterns that are no longer serving you, and build practical tools to help you feel more grounded, clear, and in control of your life. I offer therapy in both English and Spanish because feeling understood in the language that feels most natural to you matters.

Hey there! I'm a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, licensed in both states of Hawaii and Arizona. I was born and raised in Phoenix, AZ. I served active duty in the US Navy as well as public-service as a city firefighter-paramedic. I earned my Bachelor's in Psychology from Arizona State Univ. and my Masters Degree in Counseling Psychology from Chaminade University of Honolulu. I lived in Hawaii for many years working as a counselor with various populations. Hawaii is where my career in psychology all began. I enjoy helping people make meaningful changes in themselves, in their relationships and to their lives. I can help you feel more present and more authentically connected to yourself and others. Whether you are feeling stuck in life or are navigating a life-altering event, I am here to provide a safe, nonjudgemental space for you to overcome your obstacles and concerns. I know from both personal and professional experiences that each of us has the ability to awaken to Truth and find our light, even in the darkest of times. I can help guide you back to return home to your innate mental health and true nature.

Life can be overwhelming, and sometimes we need extra support to navigate its challenges. My work focuses on helping adults and teens manage anxiety, life transitions, trauma, crisis prevention, and maternal mental health. Using a solution-focused approach grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I help clients develop practical tools to create meaningful change. While I take a goal-oriented approach, I believe therapy should also be a space where you feel heard and supported. I listen carefully, bring empathy to every session, and even incorporate humor when it feels right—because healing doesn’t always have to be heavy. If you’re looking for a therapist who will help you move forward with practical tools, compassionate guidance, and a bit of humor along the way, I’d love to connect.

Welcome, I'm Andrea, Perhaps you've been considering reaching out for some time. Are you noticing the past affecting your current relationships, or that strategies that once worked for you no longer do? You might even find yourself dismissive of inspirational content on social media. I help people understand the origins of their communication patterns and learn how to communicate more effectively. This reduces unnecessary conflict and misunderstandings at work, home, and in relationships. Whether you're facing relationship challenges, workplace stress, the demands of parenthood, or struggling with past trauma—or a combination of these—you've found a place of support and optimism. Together, we will use your strengths, my expertise, and evidence-based techniques to help you achieve your treatment goals. Let's begin your new journey together!

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and have been in the mental health field since 2014. Throughout my journey in this field, I realized that utilizing a variety of therapeutic approaches is necessary to ensure an individual's success in reaching their goals. When providing counseling, guidance and education to the individuals I serve, I believe it is essential to be empathetic, respectful, culturally aware and to always acknowledge an individual's preferences when it comes to their treatment. I am family oriented and recognize the importance of having a support system to rely on. Being part of an individual's healing and success is a privilege and has always brought me self fulfillment.

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.
