Therapists in Arizona

Hello, I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. I having been working with children, teens and families for the past 18 years. I specialize in birth to 5 development, specifically relating to trauma. For the past few years, I have been serving children, teens, and families primarily dealing with grief, toxic stress and/or trauma symptoms. Though my primary treatment focus is TF-CBT, I am very holistic and modify my approach to the unique needs of each individual/family.

I’m Melissa Lapides, and my work centers around attachment. If you’re dating or in a relationship, we’re going to look at how your early experiences shaped the way you connect, protect, pursue, withdraw, or repeat the same patterns over and over. Together, we make sense of why you’re experiencing the challenges you’re having — not from a place of blame, but from understanding. I work with both individuals and couples to help them build more harmonious relationships rooted in emotional safety, secure connection, and real love and intimacy. When you understand your attachment style and nervous system, your relationship patterns stop feeling confusing and start feeling workable. I’m warm, direct, and grounded — think compassionate but honest. I’ll hold space for your pain, and I’ll also gently call you forward when you’re ready. I believe most struggles make sense in the context of your story and your nervous system, not because something is “wrong” with you. My goal is to help you feel more regulated, more connected, and more empowered in your relationships and your life. Healing doesn’t have to be dramatic — it can be steady, real, and deeply transformative.

English | español I graduated from the University of Gdansk, Poland (B.A. Psychology), and obtained a Master's in professional counseling from Liberty University, Lynchburg, Virginia. I am licensed to provide professional counseling independently in Arizona, Florida, South Carolina, Virginia, and Texas. I have experience working with individuals from various backgrounds and providing therapy in English and Spanish. Treatment is about finding hope despite the circumstances. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who treats children (ages Zero+), teens, and adults.

My name is Giannina, and I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor and bilingual therapist (English/Spanish) with 10 years of experience. My approach is genuine, down-to-earth, and compassionate. I welcome individuals from all backgrounds and provide a safe, respectful space where you can show up as your full self. Together, we’ll explore what’s getting in the way of your peace of mind and work toward building the balance, confidence, and connection you deserve. I draw from evidence-based approaches such as CBT, DBT, ACT, and EMDR to help clients manage anxiety, heal from trauma, and navigate life’s challenges with more confidence and clarity. I work with adults who may be feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or ready for change—and I’m here to support you every step of the way.

Hello, I'm Kim, a Licensed Professional Counselor for over 7 years. I am dedicated to helping adults navigate life's challenges with compassion and understanding, using evidence based care. I believe therapy should be a place where you feel safe, supported, and free from judgement as you work towards healing and personal growth. I specialize in working with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, life transitions, relationship challenges, self-esteem concerns, and burnout. I utilize a collaborative approach personalized based on your specific goals as everyone has a unique story and needs. With experience in community mental health, private practice, and a district school counselor, I have had the privilege of supporting individuals from diverse backgrounds through a wide range of life experiences.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and approved Clinical Supervisor in Arizona. I believe that therapy works when you feel genuinely heard, supported, understood, and comfortable being yourself. I work with adults and couples navigating life transitions, relationships, anxiety, stress, depression, or just feeling overall stuck or disconnected in life. My approach is collaborative and down-to-earth, combining compassion, humor, and thoughtful challenge to help clients better understand themselves and move toward meaningful, lasting change.

I’m April Quatrine, LPC, and I believe therapy begins with understanding yourself—not fixing yourself. I work primarily with adults navigating ADHD, autism, AuDHD, anxiety, trauma, and the challenges that can come with feeling different, overwhelmed, or misunderstood. With over 10 years of clinical experience, I’ve worked with individuals from a variety of backgrounds, including those navigating serious mental illness and complex trauma. These experiences have shaped my approach to seeing the whole person rather than simply a diagnosis. I also bring lived experience to my work, which has deepened my appreciation for how much courage it can take to understand ourselves, challenge old beliefs, and begin doing things differently. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and neurodiversity-affirming. I use evidence-based approaches while remaining curious about what works for each individual rather than relying on a one-size-fits-all formula. Together, we’ll explore your patterns, strengths, needs, and goals while developing practical tools you can actually use in your everyday life. I especially enjoy working with adults who have spent years wondering, “Why is this so hard for me?” or feeling as though they need to be someone they’re not. Therapy with me is not about eliminating every difficult emotion or changing who you are. It’s about developing greater self-understanding, self-compassion, and confidence in working with what you’ve got.

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.

I’m Cheyenne, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and holistic, trauma-informed therapist who believes therapy can be about more than simply coping, it can help you create meaningful, lasting change. I specialize in supporting adults navigating trauma, anxiety, relationship challenges, life transitions, and patterns that leave them feeling stuck or disconnected from themselves. My approach blends evidence-based therapy with somatic and whole-person practices to help clients better understand themselves, heal underlying patterns, and feel more grounded, empowered, and connected in their lives.

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 hold an MS in Clinical Psychology from California State University, Fullerton, and I've completed specialized training in perinatal mental health through Postpartum Support International. My focus is often on what goes unaddressed: new mothers struggling beyond the baby blues, dads who feel lost, grief that others have stopped acknowledging, anxiety or low mood that won't lift, repeating relationship patterns, or self-criticism that's hard to shake. If something feels off, that's reason enough to start. My style is warm and direct, and I offer a free 15-minute consultation so we can see if we're a good fit.

Hi, I'm Laurie, and I WANT to hear what you have to say! Does anyone ever tell you that? Being heard and understood is an essential part of therapy. Therapists have varying skills and knowledge that we bring to the table. Deciding who to reach out to can be overwhelming, so I offer a free phone consult so you can get your questions answered and gain a sense of who I am before committing to therapy. This is important work, which means you get to choose the best fit for you. Having worked as a therapist for almost 20 years now, I consistently receive feedback that I have a warm, calming presence.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker specializing in anxiety, emotional regulation, depression, and trauma-related stressors. With over 25 years of experience, my work is grounded in evidence-based practice. I use an eclectic, client-centered approach that incorporates CBT, DBT, solution-focused, motivational, and trauma-informed interventions based on the client’s presenting needs and treatment goals, with a deep commitment to creating a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore their experiences and build meaningful change. I support both men and women who are navigating stress, relationship challenges, identity shifts, burnout, and the lingering impact of past trauma.

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.
