Therapist

100% virtual telehealth counseling provided! Currently accepting clients who are physically located in Massachusetts, North Carolina, Arizona, or Oregon. (I am unable to see clients residing in Virginia at this time. If you’re located in one of the other states, I welcome the chance to work with you.)

I work with adults who have noticed their use of substances becoming disruptive to their life. They want to change their patterns and habits before other areas are affected. My approach is practical and evidence-based. Understanding that changing habits can be deeply challenging, I provide a safe, straightforward place where sustainable habits can be built, without judgment.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

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.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
