Welcome! I’m so glad you’ve taken the step to begin therapy, and I’m honored to be a part of your journey toward healing and growth. My name is Sam and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in Arizona and California. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working with individuals, couples, and families across a wide range of issues, including relational difficulties, mental health challenges, eating disorders, trauma, and more.
I'm a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner who supports teens, young adults, and families working through constant worry, big emotions, focus challenges, and the impact of difficult life experiences. Before specializing in psychiatry five years ago, I spent 13 yeas in emergency medicine, where I learned how deeply people need to feel seen and supported during overwhelming moments.

My goal is to create a space where you feel, safe, understood, and able to explore what you are going through with clarity and confidence.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Flagstaff, AZ
Searching for therapists in Flagstaff starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. A Flagstaff therapist may help with concerns like anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, stress, or life transitions. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties, training, and approach match what you want to work on. Bios can point to specific methods, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care, and help you understand what sessions may be like.
In a smaller city like Flagstaff, the number of nearby offices may be more limited than in larger Arizona markets. Virtual therapy can expand your options while still connecting you with a therapist licensed in Arizona. Some people prefer in-person sessions near Downtown, Southside, Midtown, or other local areas, while others choose virtual appointments for schedule flexibility. Before booking, review whether a therapist is accepting new clients, offers times that fit your calendar, and provides a free phone consultation. A profile can also show communication style, session structure, and experience with concerns like couples therapy, marriage counseling, or family support.
Therapy in Flagstaff can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you search for therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, verify your benefits, and see an estimated out-of-pocket cost before booking. You can browse therapists in Flagstaff, review bios, compare virtual and in-person options, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
