Hi, my name is Manzie and I'm passionate about seeing people live their best lives. My therapeutic approach is non judgemental, positive, relaxed and fun. I do challenge my clients to bring out the best in them. Additionally, we have fun. My professional experiences include school counseling, inpatient substance abuse therapist and correctional health therapist. I believe that we can over-come barriers and obstacles. I have experienced war, rejection and relationship challenges. Every challenge is a gift. How we look at it is a key factor. I look forward to working with you.

Hello,
I work with individual adult clients dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, stress.
Life is not meant to live alone and in isolation. We need positive human beings to bear witness to our lives in order for us to become fully human. We need meaningful experiences to help us navigate this journey called life. If you are tired of being tired, anxious, sad, depressed, going through the motions and feel stuck in chaotic relationships and confusion that drains you; AND you are willing to do the work to get well, then you need skilled, compassionate support to get you unstuck and get your life back on track to experience purposeful living. It is here where our paths intersect. It is my intention that you to flourish, thrive and prosper and live life well.
I often use CBT, DBT, EMDR, Mindfulness modalities in therapy.

Hi there!
I am Brazilian and I graduated in Psychology almost 20 years ago - do not do the Math! =)
I have been living in the USA since 2014 and I obtained my Masters in Clinical Mental Health Counseling in 2018. I specialized in working with LGBTQIA+ folk, most specifically transgender and non-binary (go They/Them!). Since then, I have expanded my practice and have enjoyed working with folk navigating grief, depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder and other various mental health symptoms. I provide therapy in 3 languages: English, Portuguese and Spanish.
I am a Certified Grief Informed Professional and also a Trauma specialist.
*** I unfortunately do not work with couples, so if you are seeking couples counseling, I am not a good fit.
- I will be out of office from May 1st-May12th. If you'd like to work with me and do not mind the wait, please copy and paste this link on your browser:

Hello there, I'm Kelsey.
Do you feel like you could use a break but are unsure when you will have time to fit one in? Is it hard for you to be kind to yourself or maintain relationships and overall wellness?
I help clients manage various challenges that life throws their way! Together, we can look at exactly what is working and what's not working to help bring things into balance. Seeking therapy can feel scary but you're making the right choice and can expect to notice positive changes within yourself and your relationships with others. I look forward to us working together!

I am a dual-licensed LMFT/LPCC in both California and Arizona, and I've been in practice for eight years.
I currently reside in Phoenix and provide therapeutic services via telehealth to individuals, couples, and families. I received my Master's in Clinical Psychology from Pepperdine University and my Bachelor's of Science at Northern Arizona University. I was born and raised in Phoenix, and identify as biracial (Vietnamese/Caucasian), queer, and non-religious.
I have background experience in inpatient and outpatient settings, specifically in schools/in-home, community mental health, and psychiatric settings. I am seasoned in treating behavioral and mood/anxiety-related disorders, autism (I do not provide formal testing for autism), trauma, and relationship issues (although I am not accepting couples at this time).
Outside of my career, I enjoy art, piano, cooking, traveling, and going on romps with my Malinois pup, Ranni.
