With 34 years as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I've walked alongside people through some of the heaviest chapters of life — chronic illness, grief, trauma, and the kind of relationship pain that makes you question your own judgment. I earned my MSW at the University of Michigan and have spent three decades learning what actually helps people move forward.

I work exclusively via telehealth for adults and older adults in Michigan and Arizona. One thing I want you to know: I will never use AI to record our sessions. What you share with me stays between us.

A former client described working with me as "the right mix of supportive and challenging." I think that's what honest, effective therapy looks like — not just validation, but real engagement with where you want to go.

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.

To anyone watching from the outside, you have it together. You execute, you deliver, and you keep moving forward. But beneath the surface, the engine never actually idles.

You live in a state of high-functioning exhaustion, navigating an internal friction where past stress, unresolved experiences, and relentless self-imposed standards quietly dictate how you operate. You’ve likely tried out-thinking the pressure, relying on sheer discipline, or pushing through the static, only to find yourself feeling disconnected from the very life and goals you’ve worked so hard to build.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC). I hold a B.S. in Psychology from Arizona State University and a Master’s in Counseling from Ottawa University, with a concentration in the treatment of trauma, abuse, and deprivation. I have years of experience treating anxiety, depression, trauma, chronic pain, and addiction. I also have a focus in the support of medical professionals, lawyers, executives, and other high-performers. I'm fluent in English and Arabic, and provide a space where immigrant and first-generation clients feel deeply understood.

Julie A. Armstrong

Therapist

Virtual • Arizona


I have extensive experience working with families—including both birth and foster families—involved in DCS care, as well as individuals navigating substance use and mental health challenges such as depression, anxiety, and grief. Through this work, I have supported clients in managing complex family dynamics, coping with loss and transition, and building skills to support long-term stability and well-being.

Most recently, I worked in a primary care setting, where I gained a deeper understanding of the connection between physical and mental health. This experience has strengthened my awareness of how chronic health conditions can impact emotional well-being, stress levels, and overall quality of life. I integrate this perspective into my work, helping clients address both the emotional and practical aspects of living with ongoing health challenges.

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Mesa, AZ


Many people come to me feeling overwhelmed, anxious, burnt out, or simply “not like themselves.” Whether the root is mental health, hormones, or a mix of both, my goal is to help you understand what’s happening in your body and mind — and create a plan that actually helps you feel better.

I am a Family Nurse Practitioner with over 13 years of experience treating complex chronic conditions, acute medical issues, and a wide range of mental health concerns. My background in the emergency room strengthened my ability to stay calm, think clearly, and support patients through some of their most difficult moments.

I am double board‐certified as an FNP‐BC and PMHNP‐BC, which allows me to integrate medical and psychiatric expertise. This means I look at the full picture — hormones, sleep, stress, mood, lifestyle, and physical health — to understand what’s driving your symptoms.

My approach is compassionate, practical, and evidence‐based. I take time to listen, explain things clearly, and work with you to create a treatment plan that fits your life. You deserve care that feels supportive, personalized, and focused on long‐term wellness.

If you’re ready to feel more balanced, focused, and in control again, I’m here to help you get there.

Dr. MacKenzie ia board certified Adult and Child psychiatric NP and trained therapist Graduated Cum Laud from Case Western Reserve University in 2012 practicing in Texas, Oregon and most recently in Arizona since 2013. Prior to this he spent 10+ years as a Psychiatric and Critical Care RN in the community and a prior 10+ years in the US Army; where he learned a lot about anxiety, depression, grief and trauma. "I lived it, and with help I recovered. Then I studied what I myself have gone through to help others".

"If you think about it, there is no actual health without good mental health, and I work to help my clients achieve both."

Using the tools of Psychology as well as Psychiatric medication management (if appropriate), you can feel much better, function much better at home, work, and when you find yourself in those uncomfortable times.

Almost every symptom or unwanted trait can improve and in many cases, resolve completely, but only if you give it a chance.

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Arizona


Hi! I’m Camille. Thank you for being here. For more than 15 years, I’ve had the privilege of caring for individuals and families across many different healthcare settings—from emergency nursing and the COVID-19 pandemic response to travel and concierge nursing, Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP), Partial Hospitalization Programs (PHP), and outpatient psychiatry. After years of living and working in major cities, including New York and Los Angeles, I eventually found my way to California’s Sierra Nevada foothills. My own experiences shape the way I connect with people. I’m a mother, a first-generation immigrant, part of a multicultural family, and a member of a rural mountain community. A meaningful part of my work is with high-achieving adults—professionals, executives, graduate students, entrepreneurs, healthcare workers, and others who may appear to be doing well by every external measure while privately feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, burned out, or simply not quite like themselves. I also understand the unique weight that can come with intergenerational expectations, cultural identity, and learning to navigate more than one world at once.

I went back to school at age 40 to get my Master's in Social Work, which I received in 2019. I had been working in the behavioral health field for 6 years up to that point as a health navigator for a behavioral health outpatient clinic. During therapy, I help clients to process things from the past that are keeping them stuck related to their relationships with themselves and others. I utilize EMDR, CBT, ERP, and an attachment based approach and enjoy working with clients who have experienced any sort of trauma, would like to improve their relationships and communication skills, experience obsessions and compulsions, and more. My practice is called Warm Glow Therapy, which was named after a client's idea of a supportive resource. Despite the name, I am a down to earth person and therapist. I would love to help you create a plan for a better future! I am licensed to provide therapy for clients in New Mexico and Arizona. Feel free to send me a message if you have any questions you would like me to answer. New clients can schedule an initial intake or a brief consultation to discuss whether we would be a good fit.
