It's not easy starting therapy and investing time in yourself, but you've already done the first step! My experience has primarily been focused in clients with eating disorders and co-occurring diagnoses. With that said, I also have extensive experience working with relationship challenges, anxiety, self-harm, and suicidality. I generally like to pull from my knowledge of various therapy modalities such as DBT, CBT, FBT and EFFT. I also really enjoy self-compassion work. Your goals are always my top priority, and I am here to support you every step of the way.

Outside of work, I enjoy live music, spending time with friends, and hanging out with my dogs, Nala and Toni. These personal interests help me stay grounded and bring balance to my life, which I believe is crucial for overall well-being.

If you're ready to take the next step, I'm here to help you navigate your journey towards healing and growth. Let's work together to achieve your goals!

Happy patient looking away

Find the right couples therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your relationship — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Couples Therapist in Mesa

Searching for couples therapists in Mesa starts with finding someone trained to work with the relationship, not just each partner as an individual. Couples therapy, marriage counseling in Mesa, AZ, and relationship counseling can support partners working on communication, recurring conflict, trust after infidelity, major life changes, or parenting disagreements. Not all therapists have specific couples training, so look for licensed marriage and family therapists, or therapists who list approaches like the Gottman Method or Emotionally Focused Therapy in their profiles.

In Mesa, finding one therapist who works for both partners often means balancing location, appointment times, and session format. Some couples may prefer an office near home, work, or nearby East Valley areas, while others may find virtual sessions easier to fit into two schedules. As you compare options for couples counseling in Mesa, review whether each therapist is accepting new patients, offers appointment times that work for both partners, and provides a brief initial consultation to discuss fit. Therapist bios can also show how they structure sessions and how they approach communication, conflict, and shared goals.

Couples therapy in Mesa can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before booking. Headway helps you compare therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, review detailed profiles, and book directly when you’re ready. This makes it easier to find a couples therapist who matches your needs, accepts your plan, and has availability for new clients.

If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
