I believe that the therapeutic relationship is the foundation of good outcomes, and I am dedicated to creating a space where you feel safe, respected, and genuinely heard.
I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Arizona and Wyoming with a specialization in OCD, anxiety disorders, and maternal mental health. I received a MA in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Northwestern University.
I specialize in addiction, ADHD and depression for all ages. Listening to clients and working together to find the right approach to their situation. I am a very goal oriented person that uses my knowledge and experience to create a treatment plan that motivates and encourages my clients on their mental health journey.
I am a Arizona Board Certified Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who has been working in the Mental Health field for the past 8 years. I received my Bachelor's Degree in Psychology at Arizona State University and my Master's Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Grand Canyon University. I also hold a post-graduate certificate in Marriage and Family Therapy. I have been providing individual counseling for the past 4 years. I am passionate about helping others heal through past trauma.
Outside of therapy, I enjoy traveling and dance—I'm part of a dance team and love exploring new places whenever I can :)
Hi there — I’m so glad you’re here.
My name is Deborah (Debbie) and I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor with a heart for holding space where healing, self-discovery, and personal transformation can take place. I believe that therapy is not just about coping — it’s about becoming.
With over three years of experience as a therapist and a background in mental health leadership, I specialize in working with adults navigating anxiety, depression, identity issues, life transitions, self-worth, and trauma recovery. I am especially passionate about supporting those from culturally diverse backgrounds, providing care that honors your story, your voice, and your truth.
I hold a Master’s degree in Counseling and am currently pursuing my Doctorate in Organizational Leadership with an emphasis in Behavioral Health. I’ve worked across both agency and private practice settings, and now I’m honored to serve through my own practice, Guided Grace Behavioral Health — a virtual space created for people who are ready to do the inner work in a safe, intentional, and inclusively sensitive environment.
Whether this is your first time in therapy or you’re returning to continue your journey, I would be honored to walk alongside you. Let’s reclaim your peace, your purpose, and your power — one session at a time.
Hi, I’m Nichole, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Arizona, dedicated to helping individuals navigate challenges like anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and other issues. I offer a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where you can feel seen, heard, and supported. My practice is LGBTQIA affirming, and I strive to create an inclusive environment where all identities are respected. Together, we’ll work toward healing, growth, and building the life you deserve.
I believe that we all have the capacity for healing within ourselves. I work with clients of all ages. My goal is to instill hope and healing for clients presenting with concerns related to post-traumatic stress, attachment, anxiety, grief/loss, depression, disruptive behaviors, social skills, parenting, and/or relational distress.
If anxiety, depression, or the weight of past trauma has started to feel like it's steering your life instead of you, that's exactly where I do my best work. I'm Erica, a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor, and I think of myself as your therapeutic GPS — you set the destination, and I help you find the route. I work with children, teens, adults, and couples, and I bring genuine respect, real-world knowledge, and yes, some humor to every session, because feeling comfortable with your therapist actually matters for getting better.
Many adults come to therapy wondering, "What's wrong with me?" I believe a more helpful question is, "What has shaped my experience, and what makes sense about the way I think, feel, and respond?" Lasting change begins with understanding yourself—not fixing yourself.
I have a special passion for working with neurodivergent adults, including those with ADHD, autism, and AuDHD, as well as adults navigating anxiety, trauma, life transitions, and emotional overwhelm. Whether you've spent years masking, feeling misunderstood, or believing you simply needed to "try harder," therapy can be a place to better understand yourself with curiosity and compassion instead of self-criticism.
I earned my Master of Science in Professional Counseling from Grand Canyon University and bring over 10 years of clinical experience supporting adults with a wide range of mental health challenges, including serious mental illness (SMI), trauma, anxiety, and depression. These experiences have strengthened my belief that healing happens in relationships where people feel genuinely seen, respected, and accepted without judgment.
My goal is to help you understand how your mind, emotions, nervous system, and experiences shape the way you move through the world so we can build practical strategies that fit your life—not someone else's expectations. I believe therapy isn't about becoming a different person; it's about understanding yourself more deeply so you can live more authentically, navigate life's challenges with greater confidence, and create meaningful, lasting change.
My name is Erin Lewandowski and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). I specialize in supporting teens and adults struggling with anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and relationship challenges. My clients often seek help navigating transitions, overcoming negative self-beliefs, and strengthening their personal voices. I strive to build a safe space where you feel heard, respected, and empowered. In working together, I hope you achieve your goals and feel confident navigating life's challenges.
Outside of my work as a therapist, I enjoy spending time outdoors, riding my horses, and being with my family. These activities help me stay grounded and connected to what matters most in life. I value balance, authenticity, and meaningful relationships, and I bring those same values into my work with clients. I strive to create a welcoming, supportive environment where clients feel comfortable being themselves and working toward their goals.
