Therapists licensed in Arizona

Hi! I'm Wen. I am a licensed marriage and family therapist. I help adults who are struggling to deal with everyday stressors and burnout. I empathetically listen to what you have to share and want to fully understand your situation before working collaboratively on solutions. I consider myself a direct person and try to break down the concepts that I teach into easily understood ideas.

Hi I am licensed by the Arizona State Board of Behavioral Health. I provide tele-health counseling across the state for adults. I am passionate about helping others overcome past trauma, anxiety, and low self worth. I truly love what I do so it does not feel as much like work. There is no cookie cutter modality. I tend to meet people where they are at and use whatever tools best suit their unique needs. I have been described as down to earth, non judgmental, empathetic, strengths based, and competent. I earned my Masters Degree in the Advanced Standing program ASU in 2012 and have been independently licensed since 2019. I opened my private practice in 2020. I tend to use a growth mindset-meaning small baby steps and progress not perfection. We become the little things we do a lot rather than the big things we do sometimes. All you have to do is show up as you are. I do not primarily treat substance use, eating disorders, mania, or active suicidal ideations. Such needs require specialized treatment with a therapist whose expertise falls within the appropriate scope.

My name is Leslie Relkin. I am a trauma certified therapist who specializes in EMDR and grief work. I have been practicing for over 13 years working to help people heal from some of the worst events of their lives. It is my goal to help people learn to take their power and self-esteem back and learn to thrive again after trauma.

Welcome! I'm Susan Schneider, a "seasoned" professional (which for me means that I have experienced a rich, full and savory life), I believe that I can truly walk with you down many paths and challenges! Some of my own personal paths that I have traveled include marriage, sexual intimacy and mis-matched libido concerns, parenting concerns, separation and divorce, death of a spouse, blended family life issues, empty-nesting, career changes, family of origin issues, caregiving aged parents, pre- and post-menopausal transitions, and everything else in-between. As your therapist, I will come alongside you and invite you to explore the possibilities of YOU. Whether you are struggling with sexual intimacy, relationship challenges or life changes, I will create a gentle and safe place where you can sit, breathe, reflect and gain clarity about who you are and what you desire. I would be honored to work with you as you embark on this journey. If you’re ready for me to help you tell your story, I’m ready too!

I’m a licensed professional counselor who works with adults and couples who feel stuck in patterns they understand intellectually but haven’t been able to change. My style is warm, straightforward, and collaborative. I’m not likely to simply sit back and nod for an hour; I want our sessions to help you understand what is happening, make sense of the patterns underneath it, and identify practical ways to move forward. Much of my work focuses on relationships, anxiety, life transitions, and the ways stress can affect how we connect with ourselves and the people closest to us. I especially enjoy helping couples move beyond repetitive conflict and helping individuals better understand the relationship patterns they carry into their lives. For clients who want it, I’m also comfortable integrating faith and spirituality into therapy. For those who don’t, therapy remains focused entirely on their own values and goals.

As a therapist dually licensed in counseling and substance use treatment, I believe every person carries unique strengths, stories, and untapped potential. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and tailored to your needs, drawing from evidence-based modalities such as CBT, EMDR, DBT, IFS, ACT, Family Systems, Emotionally Focused Therapy, and practical life-skills development. I’m passionate about helping clients understand how early experiences and relationships shape the way they see themselves, navigate challenges, and connect with others—and I’m continually inspired by the powerful ways therapy, supported by neuroscience, can help the brain and body heal. Outside the therapy room, I find joy in traveling, lifelong learning, reading, and cherishing time with my friends and family. I’m also deeply connected to the mind–body relationship and believe that true healing honors both. And on any given day, you’ll likely hear me mention my love of animals—especially my beloved corgis—who remind me daily of the importance of presence, curiosity, and play.

Feeling stuck in the same patterns even though you know better? Maybe you’re overthinking, navigating relationship struggles, recovering from betrayal, or simply exhausted from holding everything together. Therapy with me is real, collaborative, and judgment-free. Bring what’s on your mind, and we’ll figure out what to do with it together. I believe therapy should feel like a genuine conversation, not like an interrogation or a checklist. Sometimes you need someone to help you connect the dots, recognize patterns, or look at something from a different perspective. Sometimes you just need a place to talk things through and hear your own thoughts out loud. I’m comfortable being a sounding board, sitting with the hard stuff, or getting a little more direct when that’s what the moment calls for.

Much of the human experience is shaped by relationships and attachment. Our early attachment experiences influence how we connect, communicate, and relate to others throughout life. When these patterns no longer serve us, they can create distress and disconnection in our relationships. I work with people from all walks of life who want to better understand their attachment patterns, break unhelpful cycles, challenge limiting core beliefs, and improve communication. My goal is to support meaningful change that fosters healthier, more secure, and fulfilling relationships. I am a holistic, person-centered marriage and family therapist with specialized training in attachment theory and relational healing. I support individuals, couples, and families who struggle to feel understood, express emotions, or have their needs met, helping foster safety, connection, and meaningful change. My approach is rooted in the belief that connection is at the heart of healing. When individuals feel seen, heard, and valued, they are better able to access their strengths, build insight, and create meaningful change. I strive to create a safe, supportive space where clients can explore their experiences without judgment and with genuine curiosity. I work collaboratively with clients, recognizing them as the experts of their own lives. Together, we identify patterns, strengthen communication, and develop practical tools that support healthier relationships with others and with oneself. I also believe in the resilience and capacity for growth within every person and family. Even in moments of disconnection, pain, or uncertainty, there is opportunity for repair, understanding, and transformation. My role is not to direct, but to guide, to help clients reconnect with their values, deepen their relationships, and move toward a more grounded and fulfilling life.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and Arizona Board of Behavioral Health Examiners–approved Clinical Supervisor, providing telehealth services across Arizona and Maine. I offer individualized therapy for adults integrating EMDR, CBT, DBT skills, EFT, ACT, and SFBT approaches to address trauma, anxiety, depression, and relationship challenges since 2021. With experience as both clinician and supervisor, I emphasize ethical best practices, trauma-informed care, and the creation of emotionally safe, supportive spaces for growth. My background in gender-based violence prevention and higher education advocacy further inform my compassionate and collaborative approach to helping clients foster resilience and balance in their lives.

I enjoy providing an honest, open, and supportive space where you can freely share both your struggles and your triumphs. I use humor, honesty, empathy, sincerity, supportive listening, and down-to-earth communication to foster, build, and strengthen our therapeutic relationship. My goal is to create a space where you can feel comfortable being yourself while we work together toward meaningful change.

Greetings! I have been in the mental health field for about 20 years in various capacities and more recently dedicated as a therapist for almost the last 7 years. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker that has primarily served Arizona communities. My earlier training has prepared me for work with young children and families who have experienced trauma. I have also served adults, young to middle- age addressing college and career related challenges and also in supporting older adult needs such as navigating life transitions, parent-child relationships, estrangement and relationship conflict. I also focus on anxiety, depression, grief, chronic medical needs/illness, such as caregiver fatigue, dementia/Alzheimer's, terminal illness, and women's health (from pregnancy to women's medical needs in older adults).

Hi, I’m Eevee. Yep, like the Pokémon! I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor, and I believe therapy works best when you can show up as your whole self, knowing that your experiences, identities, values, culture, and strengths will be respected and welcomed. As a Black, LGBTQ+ identified, gender-nonconforming therapist, my lived experiences shape how I understand identity, belonging, authenticity, community, and the ways our environments influence our well-being. They inform my commitment to culturally responsive care and creating a space where you don’t have to hide or minimize important parts of who you are. I work with individuals navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship challenges, identity, stress, and experiences that can leave life feeling difficult or disconnected. My work is collaborative, trauma-informed, and grounded in the belief that people have an incredible capacity for growth. I approach therapy as two experts working together: you bring expertise in your life, and I bring clinical knowledge, therapeutic tools, and curiosity. Together, we explore what matters to you and what may be getting in the way. At the heart of my work is a simple philosophy: I want to support you as you Grow Through Life—developing greater understanding, skills, courage, and connection along the way.

Hi, I’m Ebonie. I’ve been a therapist for 14 years, and my style is down-to-earth, compassionate, and real. My goal is to create a safe, honest space where you can finally resolve the issues that are weighing you down. I don’t just sit back and nod — I’m engaged, I ask meaningful questions, and I help you get to the heart of what’s really going on. Every client is unique, and I adapt my approach to fit your needs. Whether you’re working through anxiety, healing from trauma, facing a life transition, or simply feeling stuck, I’ll bring both practical tools and proven methods to support your growth. Above all, I show up consistently and authentically, and I never take your trust for granted. One approach I use is EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing). It’s a highly researched therapy that helps people process painful memories so they no longer feel as overwhelming. With gentle tools like eye movements or tapping, your brain can reprocess old experiences in a healthier way. The memory doesn’t disappear, but the emotional weight it carries often does. EMDR has been shown to help with trauma, PTSD, anxiety, and more. We always go at your pace, and I’ll walk with you step by step. Book an appointment today.

I’m a national board-certified and multi-state Licensed Professional Counselor with a doctorate in psychology and over 20 years of experience supporting adults through anxiety, trauma, grief, and life transitions.

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.

I'm a licensed professional counselor and licensed mental health counselor, and I'm here to support you through life's challenges- whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, difficult relationships, or the lasting effects of childhood trauma or dysfunction.

I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor who works with adults experiencing anxiety, trauma, and ongoing life stress. I believe therapy should feel steady and purposeful — a place where you can speak honestly about what’s heavy while also making meaningful progress. My style is calm, grounded, and direct. I listen carefully, ask thoughtful questions, and help you recognize patterns that may be keeping you stuck. Together, we explore both where those patterns began and how they’re affecting your relationships, work, and sense of self today. I integrate EMDR, CBT, and ACT to address the root of distress while also building practical skills for emotional regulation and clearer decision-making. I value depth, but I also value structure — therapy should not feel aimless. I tend to work well with people who hold a lot together for others yet quietly carry internal stress, self-doubt, or unresolved experiences. I believe you don’t have to be in crisis to benefit from therapy. When someone is ready to look beneath the surface, not just manage symptoms but understand and shift what’s underneath, that’s where meaningful change begins.

Hi, its nice to meet you. I have been a therapist for a decade now. Before being a therapist, I spent 20 years in Healthcare Administration with 17 of those in management. I share this because I understand the stress that comes with the "corp" world and management. After 20 years, I decided to change careers and utilize my skills in coaching and mentoring. I received my Master's in Mental Health Counseling from Walden University. I am a health and wellness focused licensed professional counselor, so I spend time talking about how to balance your life, your stress, and ensure you are having some fun in your life. Therapeutically I'm very eclectic. I use different techniques based on your needs. That being said, yes, I use CBT, DBT, REBT, talk therapy, and assessments as most therapists do. My primary focus is all types of Anxiety, ADHD testing in adults, Executive Functioning, Self-Confidence, Life Changes, and Couples/Relationship Counseling. I do have a "day job" so the work I do through Grow is part time, evening and most Saturdays.
