I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who earned my Master of Social Work from Brigham Young University. I am the owner of Salt River Counseling, where I provide compassionate, evidence-based therapy to individuals, couples, families, and children. Over the past decade, I have worked in a variety of behavioral health settings, including residential treatment, outpatient therapy, school social work, substance use treatment, and clinical leadership. My experience has included serving as a Clinical Director, Clinical Supervisor, Family Therapist, and Admissions Director, allowing me to support clients with a wide range of mental health needs while also mentoring other clinicians and developing trauma-informed programs.
My passion is helping children, teens, adults, couples, and families navigate life's challenges with compassion and practical support. I specialize in treating trauma, anxiety, depression, ADHD, addiction, family conflict, parenting concerns, and life transitions. My approach is collaborative and individualized, drawing from evidence-based therapies including CBT, DBT, ACT, EMDR, Motivational Interviewing, and attachment-based, trauma-informed care. My goal is to create a safe, supportive environment where clients feel understood, build on their strengths, and develop the skills needed to create lasting change. I also don't want therapy to feel stale or robotic. I will meet you where you are at, and incorporate creative techniques to meet your style.
I'm Dean, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Arizona with clinical experience across a variety mental health, substance use, and related behaviors. I'm based near Sedona and offer telehealth sessions, making it easy to connect from wherever you are in the state. I'm currently welcoming new clients who are ready to start working toward their mental health goals in a flexible, low-pressure setting.
If anxiety, depression, or the weight of past trauma has started to feel like it's steering your life instead of you, that's exactly where I do my best work. I'm Erica, a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor, and I think of myself as your therapeutic GPS — you set the destination, and I help you find the route. I work with children, teens, adults, and couples, and I bring genuine respect, real-world knowledge, and yes, some humor to every session, because feeling comfortable with your therapist actually matters for getting better.
I believe you should not have to spend months in therapy before you begin to feel hope. My goal is for you to leave your very first session with some form of relief, a greater understanding of what you’re experiencing, and a clearer path toward healing. I specialize in trauma, attachment, and recovery, and I work with both children and adults of all ages. At the heart of my work is a deeply held belief that trauma does not have to define the rest of your life. Healing is closer than you think.
I am a seasoned professional who specializes in working with highly sensitive people. My varied training including Gestalt therapy, EMDR, Life Coaching and Hypnotherapy, Emotional Freedom Technique and Spiritual Response Therapy enables me to help you go deep, get to the root of an issue, and create satisfying resolutions.
I hold a Master's Degree in Counseling from Southwestern College in Santa Fe, New Mexico where a transpersonal approach was fostered, that is, taking into account the psychological as well as the spiritual aspects of our clients. I also studied at the Coaches Training Institute, EMDRIA for EMDR training, The Gestalt Institute of Santa Fe, the Hypnotherapy Academy of America in Albuquerque NM, and the Spiritual Response Association. I am also a life-long meditator and spiritual practitioner. In addition to working as a therapist for the last 21 years, I have been a marketing director, a psychic and a life coach.
Many of my clients are healers, therapists, teachers, artists, psychics and spiritual practitioners. They are seeking someone who can understand their rich inner world as well as the challenges of their outer world. They are seeking a therapist who can track intuitively and work with them respectfully to release unwanted limiting beliefs and traumas so that they can truly shine and achieve their goals.
I am currently writing a book called, "The Misfit Mystic" which addresses the issue of struggling to fit into society with psychic and spiritual sensibilities.
Are you feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or past trauma? Do you want to sharpen your mindset, improve relationships, find emotional peace, strengthen habits or deepen your spiritual life?
Hi, I’m Jacob Templeton. I bring experience from 15 years in mental health, including 9+ years of clinical counseling. I've worked with diverse clients, including many first responders. Whether you’re navigating a tough season or pursuing growth, I’d be honored to help you create lasting change.
I am a Christian Licensed Clinical Social Worker. My faith in the Holy Trinity of The Father, The Son and The Holy Spirit greatly shape my life, and my work. I believe you have everything you need within you to achieve your goals and heal.
I'm a licensed professional counselor with over 20 years of experience working with adults navigating some of life's hardest seasons — infertility, adoption, depression, anxiety, life transitions, and the kind of grief that doesn't have a clear name yet. I'm faith-integrated in my approach, which means I honor the role spirituality plays in your life without ever making it a requirement. My clients describe me as warm, easy to talk to, and refreshingly direct. I don't do one-size-fits-all therapy — every treatment plan starts with your story.
Outside of my work as a therapist, I enjoy spending time outdoors, riding my horses, and being with my family. These activities help me stay grounded and connected to what matters most in life. I value balance, authenticity, and meaningful relationships, and I bring those same values into my work with clients. I strive to create a welcoming, supportive environment where clients feel comfortable being themselves and working toward their goals.
