Elizabeth Coldiron

Elizabeth Coldiron

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 12 mi away • Scottsdale, AZ


I work with people who feel caught between who they've been and who they're becoming. Many of my clients are navigating trauma, identity shifts, major life transitions, or a longing to feel more connected to themselves and the people around them. Often, they arrive feeling overwhelmed by change, weighed down by old roles or patterns, and uncertain about what comes next.

My goal is to create a space where you can slow down, explore what you're carrying, and begin moving toward a life that feels more authentic, grounded, and aligned with who you are.

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual & in-person • 11 mi away • Phoenix, AZ


My approach to care integrates psychotherapy with medication management. I provide therapy for patients whose psychiatric medications I also manage, allowing for a coordinated and personalized treatment plan that supports both emotional and medical aspects of mental health.

With over 20 years of experience as a Women’s Health Nurse Practitioner and now as a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, I am deeply committed to delivering compassionate, comprehensive care tailored to each individual’s unique needs. My approach integrates physical and mental health to support the whole person.

I specialize in:

  • Mental health evaluations and medication management
  • Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) for substance use disorders
  • Gender-affirming hormone therapy

I am dedicated to creating a safe, respectful space where all individuals feel heard, supported, and empowered on their journey to wellness.

Sleep is one of the most vital components of both mental and physical well-being. I’m passionate about helping people improve their sleep quality through evidence-based, personalized care. I provide in-depth diagnosis and treatment for a wide range of sleep disorders, with a special focus on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I)—the gold standard, non-medication approach to treating chronic insomnia. Whether you're struggling to fall asleep, stay asleep, or wake up feeling refreshed, I’m here to help you reclaim restful, restorative sleep.

You can contact me at [email protected] with questions.

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 14 mi away • San Tan Valley, AZ


Many challenges we carry stem not only from our own experiences, but from trauma and patterns passed down through generations. I specialize in generational and relational healing, supporting individuals and parents who feel stuck in cycles they want to change. Together, we explore how early attachment experiences and relational trauma live in your body, emotions, and nervous system, shaping your connections today. Therapy is collaborative and exploratory, creating space for insight, resilience, and meaningful change.

I believe that healing happens within the context of community and connection. My journey in social work began in 2015, and since then, I have had the privilege of walking alongside families and individuals in their most vulnerable moments. From my early days as a parent educator and working within child protective services to my recent years in community mental health, I have seen firsthand the incredible strength of the human spirit.
