I’ve spent over 22 years as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, helping people just like you navigate life’s biggest challenges. I'm licensed in Texas, Utah, Arizona, and Nevada.

My personal belief is therapy is a space for growth, discovery, and healing. It’s a brave step, and I’m here to guide you.

Maybe you're tired of feeling anxious or depressed. Maybe you're working through a difficult loss or a past trauma. Whatever brings you here, we'll work together to find a path that feels right for you.

You will set the pace and the agenda of our sessions. One week we may work on day to day obstacles. The next week, we may work on past issues and traumas. It's YOUR TIME!

Latoya Henry-Morrison

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Sierra Vista, AZ


I am Latoya Henry-Morrison, a board-certified psychiatric mental health practitioner who is experienced in the management of patients with varying mental and behavioral health needs, from all ages and stages of development, all across the lifespan. My background as a professional registered Nurse has equipped me with the relevant prerequisites of being a nurturer, which I believe is one of the most important attributes that aids patients in achieving their individual health goals sooner. I am a compassionate, caring, and empathetic individual who strives to be a voice for the voiceless and advocate for those who need guidance towards gaining and sustaining optimal baseline health.

I currently have the privilege of working with and caring for patients from both the paediatric and adult population, who present with varying psychiatric disorders, including anxiety, bipolar, OCD, PTSD, and insomnia, to name a few, by utilizing scientifically based practices/ approaches. I wholeheartedly believe that mental health is cohesive with all other aspects of life and thus examines the patient's environmental, social, emotional, and situational health to appropriately guide them in sustaining and obtaining holistic well-being

Courtney Daniel

Courtney Daniel

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Arizona


Hello! My name is Courtney Daniel. I am a board certified psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner (PMHNP-BC). I graduated from Wilkes University with my Master's of Science in Psychiatric Mental Health Nursing. I also hold a Bachelor's of Science in Nursing and a Bachelor's of Science in Psychology.

I believe that healing looks different for everyone, and there is no one-size-fits-all approach. I believe in meeting you exactly where you are. I take a collaborative approach, which means we work through things together. Medication can be a helpful tool when it’s needed, but it’s not the only piece of the process. We’ll also focus on building and strengthening coping skills so you feel more confident day to day.

Above all, my goal is to create a space where you feel heard, respected, and accepted without judgment. Thank you for trusting me with your care.

I provide telehealth psychiatric services to people living in Arizona. I work with children ages 6 and up, adolescents, and adults. I specialize in treating mood disorders including depression, anxiety and bipolar, as well as ADHD, OCD, schizophrenia, PTSD, postpartum depression, and more.

Sherri Crespin

Sherri Crespin

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Chandler, AZ


Hello, my name is Sherri Crespin, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner passionate about providing integrated care for complex mental health challenges, including personality disorders, PTSD and trauma, substance use disorders, ADHD, depression, anxiety, panic disorders, mood disorders, and bipolar conditions. My practice recognizes these conditions are interconnected in ways requiring specialized understanding.

I chose these specializations because I understand how trauma influences personality development, how ADHD complicates substance use recovery, how symptoms emerge during extreme stress, and how these complex interactions require providers who see the complete picture. Whether you're in recovery while managing other conditions, dealing with personality patterns that developed as survival mechanisms, or navigating multiple diagnoses, I bring the expertise needed for comprehensive care.

My approach emphasizes evidence-based treatments and the healing power of being truly understood. I recognize that seeking help for stigmatized conditions like personality disorders takes tremendous courage, especially after negative experiences with providers. I create a therapeutic space where you can explore your experiences without judgment or shame.

You can expect a thorough assessment, personalized treatment planning, and consistent support throughout our work together. My goal is to help you build resilience, develop effective coping strategies, and thrive in your daily life.

Jillian Caldwell

Jillian Caldwell

Therapist

Virtual • Phoenix, AZ


I’m Jillian Caldwell, LCSW, founder of Sacred Path Counseling, offering trauma-informed therapy in Arizona. I work with adults worn down by trauma, complex PTSD, anxiety, or attachment wounds—often high-functioning outside but stuck in survival mode inside. They seek steady, collaborative healing, understanding, and not quick fixes.

My approach integrates trauma-informed, somatic, and faith-integrated modalities, including EMDR, IFS-informed work, and nervous system regulation strategies.

Many of my clients are high-achieving but exhausted — people who have spent years taking care of everyone else and are now learning how to receive care, set boundaries, and feel safe in their own bodies.

I also enjoy working with spiritually minded individuals, including those healing from religious trauma or seeking to reconnect faith and mental health in a grounded, compassionate way.

My style is warm, collaborative, and insight-oriented. I believe healing happens through safety, honesty, and connection — not perfection. Together, we’ll work to build a sense of steadiness and self-trust that allows you to live with more peace, purpose, and authenticity.
