I became a therapist due to several factors: 1) When I was 14 years old, a close friend completed suicide and until this day none of us close to him know why. This was the start to my journey. 2) After college I moved to NYC and began working in foster care and saw first-hand how trauma starts every and can have a lasting impact on an individual's life. 3) I have always had a passion for helping and assisting since my early years. These are the 3 key ingredients that played a major part into why I became a mental health provided. I believe we all can heal, and we all can share in growth. When you are healed life is so beautiful.

My goal as a therapist is to help you to get in the driver's seat of your own life. A history of trauma, experiencing depression, anxiety or ADHD, coping with life changes, and dealing with the stress of relationships, family, work, school and all the challenges that life throws at us can lead us to feel out of control and demoralized. I want to help you to better understand yourself, your thoughts and your mind, as well as teach you coping skills to empower you to live your healthiest, happiest life. I know that there is no cookie cutter approach to therapy, and I want to get to know you as an individual. My approach is trauma informed and I often incorporate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Cognitive Processing to help you to overcome unhealthy patterns and feel more secure and confident. I know it can be intimidating to start therapy. I like to use a sense of humor and warmth to build a great relationship based on mutual respect and understanding so you feel comfortable to share and be yourself. I hope that I get a chance to know you and help you to work through any difficulties that you are facing and build a better life.

Meet Mike Arieta, LICSW Hello and welcome.

Since 1995, I’ve worked across diverse settings—from foster care and homelessness to adoption and refugee support—and have been practicing clinically since 2011. My therapeutic approach is body-based and trauma-informed. I believe our bodies often speak before our minds can make sense of what we’re feeling. This philosophy guides my work with clients navigating trauma, PTSD, and transitions that require deep emotional resilience. I integrate movement-based and somatic strategies to help clients reconnect with themselves and their communities. Currently, I’m completing my Doctor of Social Work degree at Tulane University, where my research focuses on trauma recovery and evidence-informed practices that foster healing. I also hold advanced training in adoption competence and provide support to foster youth, adoptive families, and caregivers navigating complex systems. Therapy, for me, is a collaborative journey. I’m honored to walk alongside my clients as they reclaim their stories, build strength, and move toward meaningful change. Thank you for taking the time to learn more about my work—I look forward to connecting with you.

I am a kind, compassionate therapist with a strong desire to help those struggling with all of life's emotional challenges. Asking for help is the first step in overcoming obstacles in life. The overwhelming fears and doubts that you can actually win the battle against anxiety, depression, or other emotional struggles can seem impossible. Trust me when I say, that it is possible! By increasing coping skills, and identifying the obstacles that are getting in the way, we can work together to get you back to the best version of you that you can be.

Hi, I’m Vickey Simmons-Hart, a Licensed Professional Counselor in Arizona and a National Certified Counselor. I specialize in helping adults and couples navigate trauma, anxiety, relationship challenges, grief, and life transitions. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and focused on creating a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can feel supported and understood. I draw from evidence-based approaches including EMDR, Brainspotting, Internal Family Systems (IFS), CBT, DBT, and solution-focused methods. These tools allow me to tailor our work to your unique needs—whether that means processing past experiences, learning coping skills, or building healthier patterns in relationships. I believe therapy is not one-size-fits-all, and together we will explore what feels most effective and meaningful for you. Clients often describe me as approachable, grounded, and practical. I strive to help you not only heal but also feel more confident in daily life. Our work may include identifying unhelpful cycles, exploring parts of yourself that need attention, and practicing skills that support regulation, resilience, and connection. At the heart of my practice is respect for the courage it takes to show up for yourself. Healing can feel messy and nonlinear, but I will walk alongside you with patience, honesty, and care. My role is to help you access your strengths and inner resources while offering proven techniques that support growth. I welcome clients from all walks of life and value inclusivity. You don’t have to have it all figured out—together, we can explore what’s working, what isn’t, and what change might look like. If you’re ready to take the next step toward healing and growth, I’d be honored to walk alongside you.

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 the state. 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 EAP:Evernorth?

Yes! If you use EAP:Evernorth you’ll be asked to verify your Member ID at the time you book the appointment. However, if you don’t have EAP: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.

What are the "Clients say I'm" badges?

Grow Therapy asks patients about their experience with therapists after they have had a certain number of sessions. After enough responses, we add those characteristics to their profiles to help you find the best online therapists for you. We're still working on collecting this information from all our therapists.

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 to expect during your first 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.
