To anyone watching from the outside, you have it together. You execute, you deliver, and you keep moving forward. But beneath the surface, the engine never actually idles.

You live in a state of high-functioning exhaustion, navigating an internal friction where past stress, unresolved experiences, and relentless self-imposed standards quietly dictate how you operate. You’ve likely tried out-thinking the pressure, relying on sheer discipline, or pushing through the static, only to find yourself feeling disconnected from the very life and goals you’ve worked so hard to build.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC). I hold a B.S. in Psychology from Arizona State University and a Master’s in Counseling from Ottawa University, with a concentration in the treatment of trauma, abuse, and deprivation. I have years of experience treating anxiety, depression, trauma, chronic pain, and addiction. I also have a focus in the support of medical professionals, lawyers, executives, and other high-performers. I'm fluent in English and Arabic, and provide a space where immigrant and first-generation clients feel deeply understood.

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.

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 8.2 mi away • Tempe, AZ


Hi, I'm Eevee. (Yep, like the Pokémon, lol) I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor, and I believe therapy works best when you can show up as your whole self, knowing that your experiences, identities, values, culture, and strengths will be respected and welcomed.

As a Black, LGBTQ+ identified, gender-nonconforming therapist, my own lived experiences have shaped how I understand identity, belonging, authenticity, community, and the ways our environments can influence our well-being. These experiences inform my commitment to providing culturally responsive care and creating a therapeutic space where you don't have to hide or minimize important parts of who you are.

My work is collaborative, trauma-informed, and grounded in the belief that people have an incredible capacity for growth. I work with individuals navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship challenges, identity, stress, and other experiences that can make life feel difficult or disconnected.

At the heart of my work is a simple philosophy: I am less interested in helping you simply get through life. I want to support you as you Grow Through Life—developing greater understanding, skills, courage, and connection along the way.

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 9.7 mi away • Tempe, AZ


I'm a clinical social worker with over 20 years of experience in this field. I opened my practice because I believe therapy should feel like a place where you can finally exhale.

I'm a Latina therapist, and while I work with people from all backgrounds, my practice is intentionally a safe space for people of color — a place where you don't have to explain or translate your experience before we can even begin the real work.

I work with people navigating major life transitions — the kind that shake up your identity and force you to ask, who am I now, and what do I actually want? A lot of my clients come to me while they're standing at a crossroads: considering leaving a relationship that no longer feels safe or loving, moving through separation or divorce, or trying to make sense of relationship patterns that keep repeating no matter who they're with.

I have a particular passion for working with survivors of narcissistic abuse. If you've spent years questioning your own reality, shrinking yourself to keep the peace, or wondering if you're "too sensitive," I want you to know: what you experienced was real, and healing from it is absolutely possible.

Chronic stress doesn't just live in your mind — it shows up in your body. Tension, fatigue, trouble sleeping, a nervous system that never quite feels safe. Together, we'll work on understanding those patterns, regulating your nervous system, and building real tools for managing your emotions — not just talking about them.

My goal is to help you understand yourself more deeply, break cycles that no longer serve you, and rebuild a relationship with yourself rooted in compassion instead of criticism. Because healing isn't just about surviving what happened to you — it's about learning to love yourself and build a life you're genuinely excited to live.

If this resonates with you, I'd be honored to walk alongside you.
