Bipolar disorder therapists & psychiatrists in Gilbert, AZ

Hi. My name is Christine and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. Originally from New Jersey, currently in the sunny state of Arizona. I attended Rutgers's University to obtain a Masters in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. Life can become challenging at times. My passion is helping people through their struggles and getting back to a better quality of life.

You’re Either Numb... or Constantly Overwhelmed. There’s No Middle Ground.

Albert supports adults navigating ADHD, emotional dysregulation, and burnout regain a sense of balance and control. With a calm, nonjudgmental approach, he helps clients better understand their emotions, manage daily overwhelm, and rebuild confidence step by step. If you’ve been feeling disconnected from yourself, Albert provides practical support to help you feel grounded, clear-minded, and emotionally steady again without guilt or shame.

I’m a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) with three years of experience providing psychiatric care in an acute inpatient setting. My background has given me extensive experience working with individuals experiencing a wide range of mental health concerns, including mood disorders, anxiety, psychosis, and complex psychiatric presentations.

I’m now expanding my practice to outpatient care, where I look forward to building longer-term therapeutic relationships and helping clients work toward meaningful, sustainable improvements in their mental health. I strive to provide compassionate, evidence-based, individualized care while creating a safe and nonjudgmental environment where clients feel heard and supported.

I believe therapy works best when you feel truly seen, heard, and accepted for who you are. My approach is warm, compassionate, and collaborative. I meet you where you are without judgment and work alongside you to better understand what you’re experiencing, identify your goals, and develop practical tools to help you move forward.

Much of my experience has been working with individuals who have experienced trauma and are struggling with anxiety, depression, substance use, life transitions, relationships, or other challenges that can impact their quality of life. I understand that our experiences can shape the way we see ourselves, our relationships, and the world around us. Therapy can provide a safe space to process those experiences, build healthier patterns, and reconnect with the person you want to be.

I draw from evidence-based approaches including EMDR, CBT, ACT, motivational interviewing, DBT, and solution-focused therapy. I tailor treatment to your individual needs rather than believing there is a one-size-fits-all approach.

I also believe that healing is not always a straight line. My goal is to create a space where you can be honest about where you are, feel supported in the process, and leave therapy with greater insight, confidence, and practical tools for creating a life that feels more meaningful and manageable.

If you’re ready to take that first step, I’d be honored to work with you.

One of the most important aspects of successful treatment is the relationship you create with your therapist. I offer a unique blend of compassion, humor, and sound clinical judgment to foster genuine connections with my patients.

You have probably been carrying something for a while without saying it out loud: anxiety that will not switch off, grief that still ambushes you, drinking that stopped feeling like a choice, or trauma your body has not put down. Helping people find their way through that feels like my sacred calling. Ever since I was young, I've been the person who deeply listens, and I've always sensed the healing that happens when we finally have a trusted, compassionate witness to our story. The story you carry about your past can be the source of your suffering or the key to your freedom, and together we can gently begin to shift it. Whatever pain you're holding, you don't have to hold it alone. I work with individuals, and with couples and families who want to find their way back to each other.

I have experience with BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, women, disabilities, trauma, depression, and PTSD. My goal is to help you recognize your strengths and improve your self-compassion. I believe in the importance of the therapeutic relationship and strives to create an environment of trust, empathy, and unconditional positive regard.

Do you have concerns your child may be on the autism spectrum? Is your child or teenager struggling with ADHD, anxiety or depression, mood changes or emotional or behavioral concerns? I provide comprehensive psychiatric evaluations and medication management for children, adolescents and young adults with particular expertise in ADHD, autism spectrum disorders, mood disorders and complex psychiatric presentations.

With extensive experience in both general and acute psychiatry as well as developmental pediatrics, I take the time to look beyond a diagnosis and understand the whole picture- including symptoms, medications, development, family dynamics and school functioning
