I believe you should not have to spend months in therapy before you begin to feel hope. My goal is for you to leave your very first session with some form of relief, a greater understanding of what you’re experiencing, and a clearer path toward healing. I specialize in trauma, attachment, and recovery, and I work with both children and adults of all ages. At the heart of my work is a deeply held belief that trauma does not have to define the rest of your life. Healing is closer than you think.
I work with neurodivergent individuals in Tucson, including those with autism, ADHD, anxiety, OCD, PTSD, and social challenges. My ideal clients are children (8-17) and adults navigating burnout, overwhelm, social expectations, or life transitions who want support that actually fits how their brain works. I help you build practical coping tools, increase self-understanding, and reduce stress in a way that feels sustainable. Together, we create strategies that honor your strengths, improve daily functioning, and support meaningful progress without masking who you are.
Dr. MacKenzie ia board certified Adult and Child psychiatric NP and trained therapist Graduated Cum Laud from Case Western Reserve University in 2012 practicing in Texas, Oregon and most recently in Arizona since 2013. Prior to this he spent 10+ years as a Psychiatric and Critical Care RN in the community and a prior 10+ years in the US Army; where he learned a lot about anxiety, depression, grief and trauma. "I lived it, and with help I recovered. Then I studied what I myself have gone through to help others".
"If you think about it, there is no actual health without good mental health, and I work to help my clients achieve both."
Using the tools of Psychology as well as Psychiatric medication management (if appropriate), you can feel much better, function much better at home, work, and when you find yourself in those uncomfortable times.
Almost every symptom or unwanted trait can improve and in many cases, resolve completely, but only if you give it a chance.
I have been in the mental health field for almost 10 years. I spent two years as a case manager for kids 6-17. I completed my internship and practicum at a rehab facility that worked with everything from trauma, substance use, and mood disorders. I work in the prison system for three years, two of which I was a substance abuse counselor. I have been running my own practice for just over two years now. I have a lot of experience working with a wide range of clients.
I'm Rachael Colley, a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner focused on psychiatric medication management with a practical, skills-based approach. My path ran through teaching and nursing before prescribing, so explaining things in plain language comes naturally, and I care about what works in your real life, not just what looks good on paper.
Who I work with I see adults, teens, and children, with particular depth in ADHD, anxiety, depression, mood disorders, perinatal and postpartum mental health, and binge eating disorder. I provide neurodiversity-affirming care and have a strong interest in supporting people navigating a late diagnosis, both the relief of finally having answers and the practical work of figuring out what comes next.
I offer early morning, evening, and weekend appointments across Arizona.
Reaching out for help is a courageous first step—one you should be proud of.
I am a trauma-informed, Jungian-oriented psychotherapist with analytic training. My work is grounded in depth psychology and an understanding of how past experiences shape present patterns.
I specialize in personality disorders and am certified in this area, as well as in grief work. Anxiety, depression, and relationship challenges are often interconnected with these concerns and are an integral part of the work we do together.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an OCD Therapist in Glendale
Finding OCD therapists in Glendale starts with looking for the right training, not just a general therapy match. Exposure and response prevention therapy, also called ERP, is one approach some therapists use when working with OCD, and not every therapist has training in it. If you are looking for support with intrusive thoughts, compulsive checking, contamination fears, repetitive reassurance seeking, or anxiety that overlaps with OCD, review each therapist’s listed specialties and approach. A therapist who names ERP, cognitive behavioral therapy, or OCD-focused care in their bio may be a closer fit for OCD treatment in Glendale.
Glendale has local therapy options, and nearby parts of the Phoenix metro area may add more choices. Virtual OCD therapy in Arizona can also expand access if office location, commute time, or appointment times matter for your schedule. As you compare therapists, look for more than whether they mention OCD. A therapist who lists OCD as a focus area and describes ERP therapy in Glendale, exposure and response prevention therapy, or structured cognitive behavioral therapy may offer a more specific match than someone with general familiarity. Provider bios can also help you understand session style, availability, and whether a free phone consultation is offered before you book.
Therapy in Glendale can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care easier to plan for. Headway helps you search for OCD therapists in Glendale who are accepting new patients, compare virtual and in-person options, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking. You can browse therapist profiles, review specialties and appointment times, and book directly when you’re ready.
