Couples therapists in Arizona

I believe healing happens when you feel truly seen, heard, and accepted exactly as you are. Therapy doesn’t have to feel cold or clinical—it can be genuine, collaborative, and even include moments of laughter along the way.

I earned my Bachelor of Social Work from Western Illinois University and my Master of Social Work from Arizona State University. I’ve been practicing as a master’s-level social worker since 2010 and have been a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) for the past three years. I’m also certified in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), a highly effective, evidence-based therapy that helps people heal from trauma and distressing life experiences.

Diagnosed Late. Understood, Finally. I’m Dr. Stephanie Reynolds, a licensed psychologist with 25 years of experience helping

adults, couples, and families navigate emotional and relational challenges. I specialize in

neurodivergent adults, including those receiving a later-in-life autism or ADHD diagnosis.

My approach is trauma-informed, relational, and individualized, helping clients better

understand themselves, strengthen relationships, and develop practical tools that fit who

they are. My goal is to provide a space where you feel understood, accepted, and

supported.

I have many years of experience in the counseling field and care deeply for every patient. I have training in Trauma and PTSD as well as OCD. I have experience with crises work and Dealing with Addiction and sexual behaviors. I deal a lot with issues around esteem and depression and anxiety.

I am a double board-certified Psychiatric–Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 20 years of experience across the continuum of psychiatric care, including acute psychiatric emergencies, inpatient and outpatient psychiatry, geriatric mental health, intellectual and developmental disability services, and healthcare management. I hold a Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) and am currently completing my Doctorate, reflecting my ongoing commitment to clinical excellence, evidence-based practice, and lifelong learning.

Throughout my career, I have worked with individuals and families navigating a wide range of psychiatric conditions, from situational anxiety and depression to severe and persistent mental illness. My clinical experience includes extensive work with schizophrenia and psychotic disorders, bipolar disorder, major depressive disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, panic disorder, obsessive–compulsive disorder (OCD), trauma-related conditions, and mood instability across the lifespan. I am particularly experienced in caring for geriatric patients, individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities, and patients with complex medication regimens requiring careful evaluation, simplification, and long-term stabilization.

I also work closely with college-aged patients and adults who are navigating academic pressure, career transitions, family dynamics, identity development, and the cumulative stressors that can emerge during periods of high responsibility or change. Many of my patients are high-functioning individuals who appear “put together” on the outside but struggle internally with anxiety, rumination, intrusive thoughts, emotional dysregulation, or burnout. Others are managing chronic psychiatric illness while striving to maintain independence, relationships, and quality of life.

Feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or facing challenges that seem difficult to navigate alone?

I believe life is a continuous journey of growth, resilience, and learning. I specialize in helping individuals work through relationship challenges, parenting concerns, life transitions, grief, crisis, and interpersonal conflicts. Together, we'll explore the emotional, psychological, social, and personal factors influencing your wellbeing while building practical tools for meaningful change.

With more than 22 years serving Los Angeles and Riverside Counties in social services and mental health, along with over a decade in private practice as an LCSW, I bring extensive experience and a compassionate, solution-focused approach. My goal is to help you uncover the root causes of your struggles, build on your strengths, and create a healthier, more fulfilling life.

Finding a therapist who truly gets your life can feel like a long search. One who sees more than a diagnosis, who doesn't need you to explain yourself before you can get to work. If you're part of the LGBTQ+ community, that search often comes with an extra layer: the quiet work of figuring out whether this therapist is actually safe, or whether you'll spend your sessions educating them. With me, you won't have to do that work.

I'm a licensed therapist with more than 22 years of experience in mental health and addiction treatment. I've worked in community mental health centers, psychiatric hospitals, correctional settings, and private practice. I've sat with people in some of the hardest moments of their lives and know how to meet them there without flinching.

My primary focus is LGBTQ+ individuals and couples. That includes navigating identity, coming out at any stage of life, relationship dynamics unique to queer and same-sex partnerships, internalized stigma, minority stress, and everything that comes with living authentically in a world that doesn't always make that easy. I also work with anxiety, depression, trauma and PTSD, substance use and dual diagnosis, men's issues, and stress and burnout.
