Jay Piercefield

Therapist

Virtual • Arizona


You have been managing. Getting through the days, handling what comes at you, keeping it together. But somewhere along the way, that started to feel like the ceiling instead of the floor. I work with adolescents and adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, and the kind of stress that stops feeling temporary. I also work with LGBTQIA+ and transgender individuals, and with people facing major life transitions who are ready for something to genuinely shift. My approach is practical and grounded. I am here to help you get unstuck and move forward with more confidence than you walked in with.

Therapist

The majority of my professional experience comes from working with justice-impacted individuals, which has given me a deeper understanding of the complex challenges, life experiences, and barriers that can shape a person’s mental health and well-being. Through this work, I have developed a strong commitment to providing compassionate, nonjudgmental care and creating a space where clients feel respected, understood, and supported.

I earned my Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Phoenix and am currently pursuing my Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) in Counselor Education and Supervision at Walden University. My continued education reflects my commitment to ongoing growth and providing thoughtful, informed care to the individuals I serve.
