Hello,
My name is Dr. Isaiah X’avier Gonzalez, and I am honored that you have taken the time to learn more about me and my work. I am a Doctor of Social Work, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and an adjunct professor of Behavioral Health at Herzing University. My academic background includes a Bachelor’s in Psychology, a Master’s in Social Work, and a Doctorate in Social Work.
I specialize in trauma and Autism Spectrum Disorder, and I am experienced in addressing a range of mental health concerns, including grief, anxiety, ADHD, depression, and suicidal ideation. My approach is rooted in evidence-based practices that are tailored to each client’s unique needs and goals.
I am best suited for ages between birth and 30 years of age. I do not see clients over the age of 30, as they are a demographic outside my specialty.
I have had the privilege of working extensively with:
Children on the Autism Spectrum
The birth-to-five population
Youth in the child welfare system
Children and adolescents experiencing emotional and behavioral challenges
Young adults, ages 18-30 years old, who are experiencing anxiety, depression, grief and loss, and challenges in transitioning to adulthood.
Giving back to the community that shaped me has always been at the heart of my work. I take pride in building authentic, trusting relationships with my clients and value open communication. I actively invite feedback to ensure our work together is effective—if something isn’t working, it’s my responsibility to adapt and find an approach that does.
My mission is simple: to walk alongside my clients on their journey toward healing, resilience, and a better quality of life.

A better life is here for you. I'm Lorelei, a licensed therapist and EMDR specialist who helps individuals and couples get unstuck and build meaningful lives. Anxiety, depression, trauma, burnout, self-doubt, relationship struggles — these don't have to define you. Neither does that quiet feeling of drifting through life without purpose or direction. Therapy with me is a safe space where your truth is heard. That alone can be healing. I listen deeply and give you practical tools that actually work. You'll leave sessions feeling grounded, clearer, and excited about what's ahead. You deserve the full life you were meant to live.
In couples work, I help you escape the roommates syndrome and actually enjoy each other again. There was a reason you chose each other — sometimes you just need help finding your way back. You may even have mixed feelings about whether you should stay. Let's explore that together. I also offer a pre-marital program for couples who want to start right.
Life can feel heavy, lonely, and confusing — even when it looks fine from the outside. If you're stuck, anxious, constantly stressed, or just going through the motions, I want you to know that's not the whole story of who you are. You don't have to figure this out alone, and you don't have to stay here. Therapy takes courage, but it works. Let's talk.

My practice is eclectic and borrows from psychodynamic, humanistic, and cognitive orientations. I believe that each person’s rich subjective experience is fundamentally unique. In my clinical work, I strive to provide a safe, non-judgmental space where you can feel welcome in expressing yourself fully, working at a pace that feels comfortable for you. My style is relational and interactive, and tools used in treatment vary according to the individual situation. These may include exploration and expression of thoughts and feelings, expanding skills in areas such as stress coping, communication, boundary setting, providing support in problem-solving, or some combination of these. I am non-directive in my approach, operating from a person-centered lens. I work with a range of topics including life stressors, relationship difficulties, as well as mood and anxiety disorders.
"Psychoanalytic therapy requires of the therapist a degree of intelligence, a degree of professional knowledge and skill, a capacity for empathic attunement with another, a willingness to immerse ourselves in another person’s private, subjective world, an absolutely ruthless willingness to examine ourselves, and for want of a better word, humanity. Of all the qualities that go into the making of a psychotherapist, it is this last and most ineffable quality that may ultimately carry the day.”

Hello,
Thank you for reviewing my profile.
Briefly; I am Licensed Naturopathic Doctor, a Licensed Professional Counselor and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor
I work with adult professional women dealing with anxiety, depression, past unresolved trauma, grief, stress and relationship issues. My philosophy is that we need positive human beings in our lives, to 'see' us and bear witness to our lives. In order for us to be fully human, we need at least one supportive individual who validates the part of us that needs healing. We need meaningful experiences to help us navigate this journey called life.
My training as a Naturopathic Doctor affords me a lens to also consider, incorporate and integrate diet & lifestyle practices for your overall well-being.
So, if you are tired of being tired, anxious, sad, depressed and you're just going through the motions, feeling stuck in dysfunctional patterns that drain you; AND you are willing to do the work to get well, then you need skilled, compassionate support to help you get unstuck and get your life back on track, so that you can experience purposeful living. As our paths intersect her, I start with the intention that you to "prosper and be in health even as your soul prospers" 3 John 2.

Hi, I'm Dr. Cohen. Life changes, relationship concerns, stress, anxiety, depression, and difficulty setting boundaries can leave you feeling overwhelmed or unsure of what to do next. I believe you are the expert on yourself, and my role is to provide guidance and support as we work toward greater understanding, positive change, and personal growth.
I work hard to create an environment where you can feel comfortable, heard, and accepted. Our work may involve talking through a difficult experience, addressing a specific concern, looking at situations from a new perspective, or finding healthier ways to respond to challenges.
My approach combines warmth and acceptance with practical problem-solving. I value building strong relationships with my clients and want therapy to feel both supportive and useful. One of the most rewarding parts of my work is helping people make meaningful changes, reach their goals, and feel more content in their lives.
I have 30 years of experience as a clinical psychologist. I earned my bachelor's degree at UCLA and my Ph.D. at Oklahoma State University, before going on to build a rewarding career in Arizona.

I am first and foremost a lover of people. My approach is authentic, supportive, empathetic, and understanding of the difficulties many experience in life having to manage mental health symptoms, feelings of being alone/misunderstood, dealing with the ramifications of historical trauma and the impact these can have on one's current relationships. My greatest strength is quickly building rapport and focusing on holistic wellness (mentally, emotionally, spiritually, physically) and the connection between them. I am devoted to best care practices and excellent service delivery. I align myself well and tend to the immediate needs, desires, and goals of the person I'm working with. I don't believe that therapy is about learning to 'suffer less' but to work towards realizing one's full potential and highest level of functioning, identifying and working to resolve barriers that stand in the way, and developing the ability to trust in oneself, and one's ability to thrive in life. Every goal that is important to my client is important to me.

Hi, I’m Holly!
If life feels heavier than it should right now, you don't have to carry it alone. For the last twelve years, I've walked alongside adults, adolescents, and individuals of all genders and identities as they work through some of life's hardest challenges. I believe you already have strengths within you that we can build on together.
You deserve a therapist who meets you exactly where you are, without judgment. My goal is to help you navigate the challenges life has handed you by drawing on the unique strengths you already carry. Whether you're navigating substance use, the weight of adolescence, a major life transition, or a season of life that feels stuck, my hope is to create a safe space where you can speak openly, feel understood, and move toward a healthier way forward.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Arizona, Tennessee, and South Dakota. I welcome individuals of all genders and identities, including LGBTQ+ and nonbinary clients, and strive to create a compassionate, inclusive space where you can be yourself.

Hello, I'm Sheena.
Do you feel like life is always throwing you for a loop? Are you struggling to keep your head above water? Are we losing sight of who we are as a person?
I help individuals, families, and couples manage the demands and challenges that life brings. Together, we will identify the causes of your challenges and develop solutions to empower yourself to find life balance. You should have a safe space to openly discuss your thoughts and feelings. Treatment should not be cookie-cutter but individualized to your needs, which is focused on in our sessions. Change is a scary concept in our lives, but it is easier when you have someone with you along the journey. I'll meet you with empathy, compassion, honesty, and evidence-based techniques to allow you to work toward the goals you want for yourself. Let's go on this journey together!

Hi, I’m Gretchen Raring, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW: NJ, FL, AZ & ND; LICSW: MA) with 20+ years of experience in behavioral health. I work with teens through older adults and support clients from diverse backgrounds and life experiences.
My practice is grounded in the belief that therapy should feel supportive and purposeful. My style is warm, direct, and collaborative, and I see therapy as a team effort. I want you to feel comfortable being honest while supported and challenged toward change.
My approach is structured but flexible. We’ll have a sense of direction while making room for what matters most. I use an eclectic approach based on your needs and goals. I don’t believe therapy should feel one-size-fits-all.
One of my strengths is being highly attuned and building the trust that allows deeper work. Together, we’ll connect the dots between your experiences, emotions, relationships, thoughts, and behaviors. We’ll identify patterns that may be keeping you stuck and develop practical strategies for everyday life.
My background includes work across mental health, addiction, trauma, homelessness, the criminal justice system, and community-based behavioral health. I’ve worked with people during difficult times in their lives. Those experiences shape how I practice and reinforce my belief that there is always more to someone’s story than what you see on the surface.
I believe progress is about the direction of our work, not the speed. Change often happens through small steps. I believe in celebrating every win because those wins build confidence and momentum.
Above all, I want therapy to be a place for honest conversations, deeper understanding, practical tools, and meaningful change-at a pace that works for you.
At this time, I am accepting individual clients only and am not accepting new couples. I will update my profile when couples availability reopens.

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.

Hello,
My name is Thalia Diaz, and I'm thrilled to have been connected with you!
As a therapist, I strive to create a warm, caring, and non-judgmental space to work with clients. I am aware that the times in which talk-therapy is sought out are also the times in which life feels overwhelming. Whatever that struggle may be, I believe that the human spirit is strong and capable of healing. I am passionate about working alongside my clients to heal those wounds and setting them up to be able to reach the goals they've set for their futures.
Though I have experience working with a wide range of people, my passion is to help young adults who struggle with trauma, depression, grief, and/or anxiety to process their life stories, strengthen their sense of identity, and develop the skills needed for the life they desire.

What happens during the first therapy session?
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.
