Addiction therapists & psychiatrists in Phoenix, AZ

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who earned my Master of Social Work from Brigham Young University. I am the owner of Salt River Counseling, where I provide compassionate, evidence-based therapy to individuals, couples, families, and children. Over the past decade, I have worked in a variety of behavioral health settings, including residential treatment, outpatient therapy, school social work, substance use treatment, and clinical leadership. My experience has included serving as a Clinical Director, Clinical Supervisor, Family Therapist, and Admissions Director, allowing me to support clients with a wide range of mental health needs while also mentoring other clinicians and developing trauma-informed programs.

My passion is helping children, teens, adults, couples, and families navigate life's challenges with compassion and practical support. I specialize in treating trauma, anxiety, depression, ADHD, addiction, family conflict, parenting concerns, and life transitions. My approach is collaborative and individualized, drawing from evidence-based therapies including CBT, DBT, ACT, EMDR, Motivational Interviewing, and attachment-based, trauma-informed care. My goal is to create a safe, supportive environment where clients feel understood, build on their strengths, and develop the skills needed to create lasting change. I also don't want therapy to feel stale or robotic. I will meet you where you are at, and incorporate creative techniques to meet your style.

I have found my own personal healing to be intimately connected to nature, and it is here that I believe that we can all begin to rediscover our intrinsic humanity and let go of those things that distract us from our higher selves. In my spare time, I work as an outdoor educator and manage my own private practice and guide Outdoor Retreats

I believe it is helpful and important to translate what is discussed in session and in telehealth meetings into lived experience and real change.

I am Lakesha Duncan, a Licensed Professional Counselor who believes that people are more than their diagnoses, addictions, past experiences, or mistakes. My purpose is to provide a safe and compassionate space where clients feel heard, respected, and supported as they work toward healing, stability, and a renewed sense of purpose.

I earned a Master’s degree in Addiction Counseling and a Master’s degree in Professional Counseling from Grand Canyon University. My education and professional background have prepared me to address both mental health and substance-use concerns, including the complex relationship between trauma, emotional distress, life experiences, and addictive behaviors.

I have extensive experience providing counseling, clinical leadership, and behavioral health services in outpatient, residential, and community-based settings. I work primarily with adults, including individuals with co-occurring mental health and substance-use disorders.

My areas of experience include trauma, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, addiction and recovery, relapse concerns, anger, relationship and family difficulties, low self-worth, and major life transitions. I also support individuals rebuilding their lives after hospitalization, incarceration, homelessness, family separation, or other significant disruptions.

I understand that beginning counseling can feel uncomfortable, especially when you have experienced loss, disappointment, judgment, or difficulty trusting others. My counseling style is warm, down-to-earth, culturally responsive, honest, and nonjudgmental. I will meet you where you are while encouraging you to recognize your strengths and move toward the life you want to create.

I believe you should not have to spend months in therapy before you begin to feel hope. My goal is for you to leave your very first session with some form of relief, a greater understanding of what you’re experiencing, and a clearer path toward healing. I specialize in trauma, attachment, and recovery, and I work with both children and adults of all ages. At the heart of my work is a deeply held belief that trauma does not have to define the rest of your life. Healing is closer than you think.
