I specialize in relational trauma, including domestic violence and childhood trauma, as well as anxiety and depression. I work with individuals navigating life transitions, helping them break unhealthy patterns, build resilience, and move forward with clarity and confidence. My approach is warm, collaborative, and direct. I integrate trauma-informed care with evidence-based practices like CBT and EMDR. I meet clients where they are while gently challenging patterns that no longer serve them, helping them build insight and practical coping skills.I am supportive, honest, and straightforward. I create a nonjudgmental space where clients feel safe to share openly, while also offering clear feedback and guidance. I balance empathy with gentle challenge to help clients move forward. I help clients identify patterns, process past experiences, and develop practical strategies for change. Together, we set clear, realistic goals and track progress. My focus is on helping clients build confidence, improve relationships, and feel more in control of their lives.

Hi! I'm Mike, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) from AZ. Thank you for taking the time to look at my profile! I have many years of experience helping individuals heal from both substance use and mental health challenges. I have worked in community mental health and been involved in the 12-step community for many years. Prior to working in mental health, I had a career in accounting.

Boston is my hometown, but I have been living in AZ since 2015. I am a fan of the Patriots, the Celtics, and the Red Sox. I also like Marvel, Rocky and Star Trek movies.

I am personally involved in the world of substance abuse recovery and a I am a therapist with first hand personal experience with bi-polar, ADHD, OCD, and anxiety. I have found success with these concerns personally and apply many of the same techniques to my clients that I work with. I find that the most important part of the client to therapist relationship is allowing the client to be heard while utilizing positive communication skills and finding the positive and powerful qualities that each client has. I like to use these qualities as a starting point for client success with regard to each concern that they present to therapy. I believe that each client has the innate ability not only to use their current positive qualities, but to dig deep and find personal growth within themselves, and utilize this for positive lifelong results.

Hello!!! I'm John Ely--formally, John N. Ely, Ph.D., LPC--informally, "John" or "Doc". I'm an old man--76 years old--with a doctorate in counseling from Marquette University granted in 1980 and somewhat over forty years of experience as a therapy provider, supervisor, trainer and director. I retired from same about ten years ago but have continued since in a small, limited telepractice (I live in a very remote small community in Mammoth, AZ, a former mining town for what was then Phelps-Dodge and is now Freeport-McMorAn) which remains the main source of employment of its residents). I would best describe myself as a general practitioner but with somewhat of a specialty in assisting fellow human beings who are in distress, desire help reducing it and desire a collaborative partnership in doing so.

Hello, I am glad you took the time to read my biography. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor who has a heart for people who are looking for empowerment and growth. I personally know what this feels like and how difficult it can be. I was blessed to have people in my life to help me during my "trying times." Honestly, I still do. I am Bi-lingual, (Spanish) and have been practicing for 13 years. I have worked with teenagers, adults, and couples. I do not work with children due to my lack of training. My experience entails working with addictions and various disorders. I believe in both therapy and medication and am cultural competent to utilize as resources. My heart is working with trauma and am certified in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I believe that my job is to have my clients get to the point where they are no longer needing my services. That's right, to get myself fired! I believe that we were created in the image of the Creator which means the ability to love and be loved and to have the freedom to make wise decisions which help navigate us through this journey we are on. Thank you again for reading my biography. I wish you the freedom you are looking for and believe YOU ARE WORTH IT!

I am a licensed therapist with over 23 years of experience helping teens and families navigate social anxiety, ADHD, and autism spectrum challenges. I specialize in working with bright but overwhelmed adolescents who struggle with emotional regulation, executive functioning, and social confidence. Many of the teens I see are intelligent and capable, yet anxiety, procrastination, or social misunderstandings interfere with school and relationships. What may look like defiance or lack of motivation is often overwhelm. I help teens understand how their brain works so they can stop seeing themselves as broken and start building practical skills. My approach is grounded in cognitive behavioral therapy and structured executive functioning strategies. I focus on helping teens manage anxious thoughts, improve follow-through, strengthen emotional control, and build authentic social confidence. Sessions are supportive but goal-oriented. I believe teens benefit from both empathy and clear direction. Parents are an important part of the process. I provide guidance on reducing power struggles, responding effectively to anxiety-driven avoidance, and creating structure that works for ADHD and autism. My goal is not only symptom reduction, but long-term growth and independence. I am committed to helping families move from frustration and tension toward clarity, confidence, and steadiness.

I’m a bilingual Licensed Professional Counselor with a passion for helping people feel seen, supported, and empowered. I hold a Master of Arts in Counseling with an emphasis in Trauma, Abuse, and Deprivation from Ottawa University, and a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from Arizona State University. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working with children, members of the LGBTQIA+ community, individuals living with HIV, human trafficking survivors, and the neurodivergent community. My approach is integrative and tailored to each person’s needs, drawing from CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), LGBTQ-affirmative CBT, EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), art therapy, play therapy, music therapy, and mindfulness practices. I’m deeply committed to making behavioral health care accessible to people of all ages and backgrounds. It means so much when clients tell me that our sessions are their safe space. I’m grateful to be able help bridge gaps for communities that have often been marginalized or hesitant to seek support. Outside of my work, I’m a wife and mom of two amazing kids. I love horror movies, eating potstickers and dumplings, and going to concerts whenever I can. Top concerts I've been to have to be My Chemical Romance, Ramon Ayala, Chappel Roan, and RBD (Rebelde).

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 Arizona. 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 insurance?

When booking you’ll be asked to verify with your Member ID. However, if you don’t have any of the insurances available 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.

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 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.
