Michael Klinkner
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Making changes can be very difficult. I believe that therapy is about finding the inner strengths inside of yourself that can allow you to become the person you want to be. Whether you are healing from wounds from your past or looking to write a new future, change is possible. No two people go through this process in the same way, everyone's journey is very unique.
I have been working with children, teens and adults with a variety of issues for over 20 years. I have in depth experience with anxiety, trauma and depression along with the ways that those issues can affect the members of their family. I have worked in residential treatment, behavioral health hospitals and outpatient settings.
In the beginning, starting to change can seem overwhelming and maybe even impossible. I use approaches that embrace the idea that everyone is different and everyone can just with the right approach to the problem.

Grace Judd
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LAMFT
If you’ve found your way here, odds are something in your world might feel tangled, heavy, or out of alignment. You may love each other deeply and still feel stuck in painful patterns you can’t seem to escape. Maybe conversations escalate quickly, one of you shuts down while the other pursues, resentment keeps building, or trust has been damaged by repeated hurt, betrayal, or emotional disconnection. Over time, couples often begin feeling more like roommates, opponents, or strangers than partners.
Whatever brought you here, you’re not alone and you’re in the right place to begin healing. In couples counseling, you’ll find a space where your nervous system can exhale—where we can slow down, untangle patterns, heal emotional injuries, and strengthen the threads that create secure, meaningful relationships.
I specialize in helping couples slow down these negative cycles, rebuild emotional safety, strengthen communication, and reconnect beneath the conflict. My relationship counseling approach is attachment-based, trauma-informed, and grounded in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Family Systems, and Gottman Method, helping partners move from blame and defensiveness toward understanding, responsiveness, and deeper connection.
Whether you’re navigating chronic conflict, intimacy issues, infidelity recovery, parenting stress, premarital concerns, or the impact of trauma on your relationship, couples therapy can become a space where both partners feel heard, understood, and supported.
I primarily work with couples and adults navigating relationship distress, attachment wounds, trauma, and emotional disconnection.
I currently have availability for in-person and online sessions and would love to connect. Together, we’ll work toward creating a relationship that feels safer, more connected, and more resilient.

Jeni Gutke
Licensed Professional Counselor, MC, LPC
Everyone needs a place for advocacy and validation of feelings to be able to untangle and articulate those things which are not working in our lives. In addition to advocacy, you will also receive a safe space to unburden and have support and encouragement to not only illuminate your gifts and talents, but also to help differentiate emotions which are no longer serving you and empower goals for future Fulfillment. That starts with self compassion and being in the present and allowing space to leave each session feeling lighter with coping skills that can reduce heightened emotions and help direct back to self energy. With a background in teaching both elementary and high school and working in nonprofit organizations , seeing the need we all have for advocacy and compassion has greatly influenced my belief in the human spirit and our ability to heal. Why not live the life we have imagined and make it the best it can be?

Jocelyn Jarman
Counselor/Therapist, LMSW
I didn't start in a therapy office—I started in a classroom, where I mastered the art of finding missing pencils, mediating playground diplomacy, and helping kids navigate big feelings. It turns out those experiences taught me some of the most important lessons about healing.
As an elementary and special education teacher, then working with children navigating the foster care system, I learned something that textbooks don't teach: healing begins when someone finally feels seen. That belief became the foundation of everything I do as a therapist.
Today, I work with children (ages 5+), teens, young adults, and women facing anxiety, trauma, grief, ADHD, and attachment wounds — wherever life has gotten heavy. Drawing on play therapy, sand tray, DBT, CBT, and mindfulness, I don't believe in one-size-fits-all care. I meet you exactly where you are.
I hold two master's degrees — in Educational Counseling and Social Work — but what matters most to me isn't the credentials on the wall. It's the moment a client realizes they don't have to carry it alone anymore.
You have an innate capacity to heal. I'd be honored to walk alongside you as it unfolds.

Amy Guido
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Being in relationship with others can uncover areas of strength as well as struggle. If you grew up in a family that didn't do much self reflection, perspective taking, emotion coaching or repair making, you may feel at a bit of a loss with how to navigate relationship struggles in helpful ways.
Perhaps you've vented to friends and family to reduce the tension of the latest disagreement. For most of us though, that doesn't get us the perspective and skills necessary to get unstuck or moving forward more productively. I help people through targeted feedback and support to gain greater relational satisfaction and results. Even if your partner or child won't attend, sometimes the power of one can make a huge difference.
Perhaps today is a good day to take a risk and reach out to see if the change you seek is more attainable than you think. I bring a wholistic, curious, light-hearted, real and down to earth approach that takes into account your unique needs and goals.
If you're ready to try something new and would like support please reach out for help. While I don't accept insurance, I do have current openings. I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Claire Karakey
Therapist, LPC, MC
I'm not good enough, I can't stand this, I can't trust anyone, I should have known better! Do you ever notice yourself living with similar shame? Truth is, most of us do and as we get older, it is hard to understand that we are still operating in our relationships, jobs and daily lives with these messages. Our goal in therapy is to provide an efficient treatment plan to help clear out some of these false and dysfunctional messages and help you start seeing you're worth.
We work with people from different walks of life and we're committed to providing a compassionate and creative approach to therapy. We enjoy working with children and adults individually as well as within group, family and couple settings. My specialities lie in treating anxiety (performance anxiety, OCD, PTSD) as well as depression, life transitions, chronic pain/illness, grief/loss, and more. We have extensive training in shame and trauma and understand how these impact people's ability to function in their day-to-day lives.
We offer a strength based, client-centered approach to therapy. Every person's story is special and deserves an individualized approach. In therapy our therapists utilize Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Trauma Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy and Family Systems work.
It takes great courage to find hope. We believe in holding space for clients, hearing your stories and working together to help you live your best life. You are not alone in your journey. You will be met with enthusiasm, support, kindness and an open mind in every session.

Mesa is one of the largest suburbs in the United States and part of the greater Phoenix metro, with a significant LDS (Latter-day Saint) community that shapes the social fabric and the therapy landscape — many residents seek therapists who can integrate faith values with evidence-based approaches to anxiety, relationship issues, and family dynamics. The city's car-dependent suburban sprawl and intense summer heat contribute to social isolation, and therapists here frequently address loneliness and the challenges of building genuine community in a dispersed environment. Banner Desert Medical Center provides institutional mental health resources, and many Mesa residents also access care through the broader Phoenix-metro therapy ecosystem. The city's large Latino and Mormon populations both drive demand for culturally specific therapeutic approaches.
