Taking the first step is hard — my job is to make it easier. I provide supportive, personalized medication management for ADHD, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, and more.
I have a Master's degree in Social Work and have worked for many years in Florida and Arizona helping adults with depression, anxiety, relationship issues, healing from PTSD trauma and addictions.
Most therapists treat what’s happening in your mind. I also look at what’s happening in your body.
I believe our brain is arguably the most important organ in the body — it is the command center for everything else. So why do we not put more emphasis on its health, and the ripple effect it has on our body and our lives? This question is at the heart of everything I do.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, EMDR-trained therapist, and Certified Personal Trainer. I graduated from Lindenwood University in Missouri with my Master of Arts in Professional Counseling in 2012, and founded Inspire Change Counseling in 2014 with a vision of creating a truly integrative approach to mental health care — one where clients receive a multi-disciplinary scope of care, not just a referral for medication.
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
- ADHD Clinical Service Provider-Certified Providing comprehensive evaluation, diagnosis, and treatment of ADHD in children, adolescents, and adults.

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.
