Mary Goggins

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Goodyear, AZ


You may look like you are holding everything together while feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or exhausted underneath. I work with adults navigating trauma and PTSD, anxiety, depression, substance use and recovery, co-occurring concerns, and difficult life transitions.

With 19 years of behavioral health experience, I bring extensive experience in addiction and recovery and am trained in EMDR through the Francine Shapiro EMDR Institute. I understand that people are more than a diagnosis and that the ways we learn to cope often make sense in the context of what we have lived through—even when those same patterns are no longer helping us today.

My style is warm, genuine, and direct. I offer a nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard while also doing meaningful work toward change. I do not believe in a one-size-fits-all approach, and I tailor therapy to your needs, goals, strengths, and readiness.

I offer IN-PERSON APPOINTMENTS in Goodyear, Arizona, serving the West Valley, as well as virtual therapy throughout Arizona, Wisconsin, Colorado, Michigan, Florida, and New Jersey.

Happy patient looking away

Find an expert who truly understands maternal mental health

Headway helps you find expert-guided support for every stage of motherhood — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Postpartum Therapist in Gilbert

Searching for postpartum therapists in Gilbert starts with finding someone whose training fits the support you want. Postpartum concerns can include depression, anxiety, birth-related stress, identity shifts, and relationship strain. Some therapists focus on perinatal mental health, and the PMH-C credential can be one signal of specialized training in this area. As you compare therapists, look for listed experience with postpartum depression, counseling for postpartum depression, new parent support, or women’s mental health.

In a smaller city like Gilbert, local therapist availability may vary by schedule, specialty, and office location. Virtual care can expand your options, especially if you are balancing infant care, physical recovery, appointments, or an unpredictable routine. Along with specialty, consider whether a therapist is accepting new patients, offers appointment times that fit your calendar, and provides a free phone consultation. Reading therapist bios can help you understand their approach, communication style, and experience with postpartum concerns before you book.

Therapy in Gilbert can be a significant investment 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 postpartum therapists who match your preferences, accept a wide range of insurance plans, and offer clear estimated costs before your first session. You can browse therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
