I primarily work with women who are feeling emotionally drained, stuck in unhealthy relationship patterns, or who no longer recognize who they used to be. Many women I work with grew up learning to prioritize others’ needs, manage everyone else’s emotions, and silence their own. Over time, this can lead to relationships that are never quite fulfilling and create a constant sense of self-doubt or exhaustion. I support clients with strengthening their confidence, building their self-worth and ability to trust themselves, and to be able to create relationships that feel safe with healthier emotional boundaries.

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.

Virtual & in-person • 20 mi away • Phoenix, AZ


Hello! I'm Brigett and I'm accepting new clients.

Taking the first step toward healing can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to walk this path alone. I am a dedicated therapist passionate about helping individuals process trauma, navigate complex emotions, and reclaim their inner strength. In our work together, we won’t just talk about what’s happening in your mind—we will look at the whole picture. I specialize in nervous system regulation, helping you move out of constant survival mode (like feeling perpetually anxious, overwhelmed, or shut down) and back into a state of safety and balance.

My goal is to create a warm, collaborative, and entirely judgment-free space where you feel truly heard. Together, we will uncover the why behind your patterns, giving you the insights and practical tools you need to feel deeply empowered and connected to your true self.

How we can connect: I currently offer flexible, convenient virtual sessions so you can begin your healing journey from the comfort of your home. Starting in July, I will be welcoming clients for in-person sessions [Phoenix @ Northern/51] on Fridays.

Wherever you are starting from today, please know that healing is possible, and you are entirely capable of it. I look forward to supporting you.

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 17 mi away • Mesa, AZ


Healing starts with exploring how past experiences continue to affect your emotions, thoughts, and the relationships that matter most to you. How you show up in the relationships that matter most to you. Grief, trauma, anxiety, depression, and the weight of patterns you've carried for years have a way of immersing you, becoming the water you swim in: familiar, exhausting, and nearly impossible to see clearly from the inside. You may have tried to push through, stay busy, or simply manage and found that these efforts only go so far.

As an LCSW, I work with adults who are ready to understand what they've been carrying, not to relive it endlessly, but to finally set some of it down. My work draws on EMDR, CBT, mindfulness, and somatic awareness, because healing isn't only a cognitive process. It lives in the body too. In the tension you hold, the way your breath shifts, the physical echoes of experiences your mind has long tried to move past. When we work at that level, something shifts that talking alone often can't reach.

What makes my approach distinct is the attention I bring to the relationship between your inner world and your outer life. Complex relationship patterns, grief, and the slow erosion of self-confidence are rarely isolated concerns — they're connected, layered, and shaped by everything you've lived through. Together we'll make sense of those connections, understand what your nervous system has been protecting, and build something more sustainable than simply getting through the day.

My approach is relational and collaborative, grounded in genuine respect for your pace, your story, and your autonomy. I bring warmth, honesty, and steady curiosity to every session — and a deep belief that the relationship you develop with yourself is the foundation for everything else. Healing here isn't about performing progress or moving on before you're ready. It's about gradually coming home to yourself.
