Hi! I’m Wendy

I am so glad you are here! I am a licensed mental health therapist in Arizona and enjoy working with teens and adults 15 years and older.

My desire to help others comes from a deep understanding of my own experiences and a dream of helping others find joy and fulfillment in their lives. My therapeutic approach is full of compassion, curiosity and understanding. We all struggle and sometimes we all need a little help. I would be honored to aid you on your journey of recovery and healing.

Does This Sound Familiar?

Life feels overwhelming. You want deeper connections and better communication with your loved ones, but you’re not sure how. You are surrounded by people but feel alone, sad or angry. You want to have fun, relax and enjoy yourself, but you feel pressure to do more, be more and make more. You hold your feelings in, wanting them to go away, staying busy to distract yourself.

Or maybe…

You have felt fulfilled as an active member of your family, faith and community. But, recently, you or someone you love has started to have questions, doubts and fears about your faith and religion. These questions could impact your family, your friendships, even your employment. You want to talk to someone, but you don’t want to jeopardize your relationships.

Or maybe…

You have lost someone close to you recently or in the past and you find it hard to move forward. You miss them so much! You feel guilty moving forward, living a life without them. People tell you to move on, but how? You are not alone. Grief is painful and lonely. We can work together to be with your grief and process your loss. It’s okay that you are not okay, but if you need help, please reach out.
