Hi, I’m Nicole! Therapy with me is about real conversations, practical tools, and accountability. Clients often tell me they appreciate that I’m down-to-earth, supportive, and won’t let them slide. I bring a diverse background of both life and professional experience, allowing me to see multiple perspectives and help you navigate complex relationship dynamics.
Welcome! I’m so glad you’ve taken the step to begin therapy, and I’m honored to be a part of your journey toward healing and growth. My name is Sam and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in Arizona and California. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working with individuals, couples, and families across a wide range of issues, including relational difficulties, mental health challenges, eating disorders, trauma, and more.
Hello,
I'm so glad that you are looking to take care of yourself and your needs. I have a master's in professional counseling and years of clinical training in trauma, EMDR, and various other topics. I love to help individuals, families, and groups. I help people manage and reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, PTSD, and low self-esteem. I look forward to working with you.
Reaching out for help is a courageous first step—one you should be proud of.
I am a trauma-informed, Jungian-oriented psychotherapist with analytic training. My work is grounded in depth psychology and an understanding of how past experiences shape present patterns.
I specialize in personality disorders and am certified in this area, as well as in grief work. Anxiety, depression, and relationship challenges are often interconnected with these concerns and are an integral part of the work we do together.
I’m a warm, direct, and collaborative therapist who believes therapy should feel both supportive and purposeful. I create a space where you don’t have to minimize your pain or have everything figured out. I work best with clients who want to understand themselves more deeply, heal from emotional wounds, and make meaningful changes. I value honesty, curiosity, and practical tools, and I’ll meet you with compassion while also helping you gently challenge patterns that keep you stuck
In more than 20 years of practice, I've had the good fortune to walk beside many peoplemoving through difficult times and struggle to a place of relief and the recovery of a sense of identity, integrity, and self worth. For many years, I have specialized in helping men and women struggling with Sex Addiction. More recently my work has led me to help Couple's find each other again and to guide them through a range of relationship and recovery related issues. My experience has allowed me to develop an understanding of how to help with many other problems including grief, depression, and anxiety. My approach is always compassionate but solution focused.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with more than 14 years of experience supporting individuals through life’s challenges. My background includes crisis work, children and family services, clinical practice, school social work, and teaching at the university level, which allows me to bring both compassion and practical tools into the therapy space. I specialize in anxiety, depression, adjustment disorders, stress management, crisis intervention, and relationship and family dynamics. Clients often describe me as warm, supportive, and straightforward.
I have had a successful psychotherapy practice since 2018 in Glendale Arizona. My practice focus is centered on clients with trauma, depression, anxiety, mood disorders and OCD. I work with a non-profit agency that provides first responders with mental health care. I was educated at Arizona State University and Ottawa University.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Tempe
Searching for therapists in Tempe starts with knowing what kind of support you want. People often look for therapy for anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, or major life transitions. As you compare therapists, look for training and listed specialties that match your needs. A therapist’s profile can show whether they use approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or acceptance and commitment therapy.
Tempe has a steady range of therapy options, with care available near central areas like Mill Avenue, Arizona State University, South Tempe, and surrounding East Valley communities. If a nearby office fits your routine, in-person therapy may be a good match. If your schedule changes often, virtual therapy can give you more appointment options across Arizona. To narrow your search, review whether a therapist is accepting new clients, offers appointment times that fit your calendar, and provides a free phone consultation. Reading bios before booking can help you understand each therapist’s communication style and what sessions may be like.
Therapy in Tempe can be a significant cost without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you find therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, verify your benefits, and show estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book. You can browse therapists in Tempe, review profiles, compare availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
