Therapists in Tucson, AZ

I work with children, adolescents, and young adults. I believe that the therapeutic process is fostered by building a trusting and empathetic relationship. My goal is to provide a safe, non-judgemental space to explore and process ones experiences. Many children and teens struggle with a variety of emotional challenges. Therapy can help them to explore the different areas of their lives and learn skills that they can use to feel better about themselves and their situation.

My passion is to provide hope and healing from life's challenges in a nonjudgemental, serene environment.

Experience the freedom and discover new ways to enjoy living your life to the fullest.

Learning from remarkable teachers and healers along the way, I have evolved a practice based on empathy and creativity.

I believe one of the bravest things you can do is begin to understand your own story. Whatever your problem, I will help you find a solution.

There is no reason to stay in bad relationships, a job you hate, being stuck in anxiety/anger/depression or trauma. I will guide you to emotional freedom full of meaning and purpose.

I support individuals and couples who are struggling with relationship issues, anxiety, depression, eating disorders, body image concerns, and other mood disorders to arrive at long-term, sustainable solutions.

I devote attention, energy, expertise, humor and best recommendations to help you discover what you need to move forward. I work with English and Spanish speakers and all religions and backgrounds, including the LDS community.

"What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us." Ralph Waldo Emerson.

Current Immediate Availability. It starts so small. Some frustration here, some outbursts there, avoiding situations that trigger uncomfortable emotions, occasional episodes of sadness or anxiety. Gradually it gets worse. Suddenly you find little joy in life, you don’t recognize yourself in the mirror, and you are spending the days feeling stuck in the intensity of these emotions and thoughts that control your life. Maybe you are watching your child experience these things and are feeling helpless seeing them struggle. It is time for change, time for healing, but you just are not sure how or where to start.
