I am trained in EMDR, CBT, DBT, EFT, Gottmans and much more as well as being a client centered, trauma informed LCSW who makes my clients a priority. I treat many issues but specialize in trauma, grief, comorbidities, end of life, identity challenges, couples, polyamory/ENM, anxiety, depression and am focused on helping you thrive!
As a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Certified Sex Addiction Therapist (CSAT), I help men navigate the pressures of high-demand careers and the challenges that can impact their relationships and personal lives. If you're feeling overwhelmed by stress, disconnected from the people who matter most, or caught in unhealthy coping patterns, I provide a direct, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where lasting change is possible.
I specialize in helping men who struggle with pornography and sex addiction, as well as the shame, secrecy, and relationship pain that often accompany these behaviors. Together, we'll identify the underlying issues driving these patterns, strengthen emotional awareness, rebuild trust and connection, and develop practical tools to help you live with greater integrity, purpose, and confidence.
I am a dual board-certified nurse practitioner. I graduated with my Family NP at Grand Canyon University in 2018.I graduated with my post-graduate cert as a Psychiatric Mental Nurse Practitioner at Wilkes University in 2022.I am constantly looking forward to continue my education to better serve my patients and to ensure that I am up-to-date with the latest advances in the fields of medicine and psychiatry.You will be treated with holistic care that combines traditional and alternative medicine.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, holding a Master of Science in Professional Counseling from Grand Canyon University. With a deep commitment to fostering transformation and growth, I specialize in creating a therapeutic space where clients feel empowered to explore their inner potential. My approach is grounded in building a collaborative and relational connection, ensuring that each client feels heard, supported, and safe throughout their journey.
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.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Addiction Therapist in Glendale
Finding addiction therapists in Glendale starts with understanding what kind of support fits your needs. Addiction care can include support for alcohol use, drug use, substance use concerns, gambling, and other behavioral patterns. Some therapists use approaches like motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy for substance use, or harm reduction frameworks. Some people may also work with a prescriber as part of their care team, depending on their needs. As you compare therapists, look for training and listed specialties that match what you want to address.
Glendale offers local access to mental health care, and virtual appointments can expand your options across Arizona when nearby availability is limited. Recovery can involve changes over time, so it helps to find a therapist who describes a clear, non-judgmental approach and experience with substance abuse and counseling. You can also compare appointment times, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading bios can help you understand how each therapist talks about addiction care, communication style, and session structure before you book.
Therapy in Glendale can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower session costs and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before your first appointment. Headway helps you find addiction therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, are accepting new patients, and offer direct booking. You can browse therapists, review bios, compare virtual and in-person options, and book when you are ready.
If you or someone you know is experiencing severe withdrawal symptoms — especially from alcohol or benzodiazepines — talk to a medical provider or seek emergency care before starting outpatient therapy.
