Book a therapist or psychiatrist in Arizona covered by United Healthcare

With over 40 years of experience as a clinical social worker, I hold a deep respect for the uniqueness of each person's story. My approach is grounded in psychodynamic theory, which means I work with you to explore how past experiences may be shaping your current thoughts, emotions, and relationships.

I offer a safe supportive virtual space for older teens and adults who are ready to reflect, grow, and move toward lasting change. Whether you're navigation anxiety, trauma, life transitions, or high-conflict relationship dynamics, I bring warmth, insight, and seasoned clinical skill to help you better understand yourself and create a more fulfilling life.

I'm Shannon.

In addition to being a Licensed Mental Health Provider (LMFT), I am also a Nationally Certified Professional Mediator (NCPM), Family Law Mediation CME, Certified Specialist In Anger Management (CSAM), Certified Narcissistic Abuse Treatment Clinician (NATC), and a Parent Plan Coordinator/Special Master.

At this time, our clinicians do not provide EMDR or ADHD-specific assessment or treatment. EMDR and ADHD requires specialized training and interventions. Please connect with a qualified specialist to ensure the most appropriate care.

I have over 14 years of experience working with children, adolescents, teens, individuals, couples, and families from culturally diverse populations on a wide range of issues and concerns..

I am licensed in Arizona, California, Colorado, Nevada, and Texas.

At this time, I only provide services virtually through a secure telehealth system.

Four things I want you to know before you begin therapy with me:

1. I want treatment to work just as much as you do.

2. I am not judging you, and need to hear all of your truth(s) in order to best support you. You can't heal what you won't reveal.

3. I will not fight you for your healing.

What that means is: I will not work harder than you do. However, I will be right there beside you as we navigate your Mental Health journey together.

4. If you don't connect with me, that's okay. Don't be afraid to try someone new, and keep trying until you find the right fit.

I enjoy working with anyone who is eager to improve their overall mental health, and is ready to learn the tools needed to make this goal a reality.

I look forward to working with you!

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.
