Roderic Burks - Integrative Mental Health
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MS, MS HSc, MA, LMHC, LPC
I help clients build a deeper relationship with themselves by exploring the different “parts” within, grounded in a depth-oriented and trauma-informed approach. Together, we look beneath the surface to understand the patterns and experiences shaping anxiety, depression, and relationship struggles. Through curiosity, compassion, and insight, therapy becomes a space for meaningful healing—supporting greater clarity, self-trust, and more authentic ways of relating to yourself and others.

Restored Counseling & Wellness Center, PLLC
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, LPC, NMD
What if you could finally feel in control of your thoughts, your reactions, and your life? At Restored Counseling & Wellness Center, we offer secure telehealth therapy across Arizona as well as in-person therapy in Gilbert, AZ, for individuals and couples ready to stop white-knuckling through life and start genuinely healing. Our integrative team specializes in advanced trauma therapy, couples counseling, and integrative psychiatry and mental health — combining EMDR, attachment-based approaches, and mind-body work to help you shift not just how you think, but how you feel things at a deeper, more automatic level. Many clients are surprised to discover how much their nervous system, subconscious beliefs, and body responses have been quietly running the show — and how much can change when those patterns are addressed directly. Whether you're navigating trauma along with relationship struggles, anxiety, depression, OCD, ADHD, neurodivergence, grief, chronic health concerns, or LGBTQ+ specific stressors, our compassionate team meets you where you are. Not sure where to start? Reach out for a free 15-minute phone consultation — we'd love to talk.

Noelle Espineli
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
My years of academic and professional experience have allowed me to effectively work with a diverse client population of all ages, cultural backgrounds, and behavioral/mental health issues, especially those experiencing difficult life circumstances. I strive to help clients navigate situations related to burnout, existential crises, mindfulness, self-care, distress intolerance, interpersonal conflicts, and life transitions.
As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I work from a clinical perspective founded on a strength-based, solution-focused, approach. I am well-practiced in individual, couples, and family therapy. I am trained in DBT, which is a good fit for clients who have stalled in other therapeutic interventions.

Dr. Ryan Kitts Schallon
Psychologist, PsyD
We often think of ourselves as what we are given, but instead it's what we make of what we're given. I am guided by a view of identity as a creative narrative and see distress as often occurring when we feel stuck in that creation, bound to selves and lives that aren't working. The goal in therapy is not only to understand how and why we got stuck, but to reengage with our creative and imaginative selves, allowing us to explore new facets of ourselves and experiment with new ways of being. In many ways, we reduce suffering by reintroducing play in our worlds.
Storytelling, deep reflection, imagination, and play are pillars of my practice. I work with you to understand, reimagine, and reorganize your experience so that you can unlock self-transformation and achieve your desired changes.
I believe the past is always present, but we are not necessarily bound by it. Change is always possible, even if it is always hard. If you're at a stage where you feel stuck and uncertain, or like you've wandered off your path, or have no clue what path you're even on, I encourage you to reach out to me. We can imagine and explore new pathways together.

Carter Doyle
Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, PMHNP-BC, EMT-P
Online therapy with me is warm, practical, and collaborative. I work from the belief that people do well when they have safety, clarity, and tools—so that’s what we build together. Sessions are held via secure video, so you can join from home, work, or even your car on a lunch break, as long as it’s private. This is especially helpful for folks with busy schedules, parents, caregivers, or those who just don’t want to sit in a waiting room.
I specialize in helping people untangle anxiety, trauma/attachment wounds, identity- and spirituality-related stress, ADHD-related overwhelm, and the emotional aftereffects of harmful or shaming messages. I often integrate parts work/Internal Family Systems (IFS), EMDR-informed approaches, and evidence-based psychiatric care to help you understand why you feel the way you do and what will actually help your nervous system settle. We go at your pace—nothing is forced.
Online sessions are structured but human. Some weeks we problem-solve; other weeks we process deeper experiences. My style is affirming of LGBTQ+ clients and people deconstructing or healing from rigid faith contexts. I welcome all of your identities in the (virtual) room.
If you’re looking for an online provider who can blend psychotherapy with thoughtful, trauma-informed psychiatric care, we may be a good fit. Send a message and we can see if what I offer matches what you need.
