Brie Chandler
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
You may be feeling lost, anxious, and don't know why everything that used to work to feel better isn't now. Maybe it feels like your relationships are suffering, like you've never even had a healthy one, or could never share your desires with your partner or partners. Every little thing added to your plate feels so overwhelming and it might be easier just to shut down or hide parts of yourself. You might worry you're "too much" or feel like you can't do anything right. You tell yourself "no one could ever understand or accept me," or "everyone has childhood stuff, I'm fine," ...right? One thing you’re sure of is you want to feel better, safe, and like you have direction. You’re ready to have quality relationships and leave behind old patterns. Most of all, you’re ready to feel good enough and embrace all parts of your identity.

Narrative Therapy
Kerry Diana
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
Many adults work hard to keep life together while privately struggling with overwhelm, disorganization, anxiety, procrastination, or persistent self criticism. You may appear capable on the outside, yet feel frustrated by patterns that continue to interfere with daily life, relationships, or confidence.
Our approach is warm, practical, and structured. Therapy is not just a place to talk through the week, it is a purposeful process focused on understanding the patterns driving these difficulties and creating meaningful change. We specialize in working with adults experiencing ADHD, anxiety, self worth concerns, depression, and life transitions using evidence based approaches that combine insight with practical strategies.

Narrative Therapy
Matthew Brace
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Wouldn’t it be helpful if the communication in your relationship created closeness rather than distance? You care deeply about your partner but are feeling stuck on how to change. We are often trying to figure out how to improve our relationships as we go, and certainly get frustrated when attempts fall short. This frustration can lead to wondering how your relationship got to a point where feeling disconnected is common. There are reasons for these issues, and we will uncover them and implement solutions throughout our sessions together.

Narrative Therapy
Sumer Statler Aeed
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
I am a psychologist that is passionate about all of us living the fully awake and vibrant lives we are meant to. Sometimes this involves healing from the past, other times it means working towards visioning and creating the future, oftentimes both. It generally involves some insight but also a good dose of experiential tools and learning about your central nervous system and how to both understand and work with it, what we call both top down and bottom up tools. Ready for real change and willing to do the work? (yep it is work but well worth it) Let's go.

Narrative Therapy
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.

Narrative Therapy
Kelsey Bass
Marriage and Family Therapist, MAS, LMFT
I understand that starting therapy can feel intimidating. It's normal to feel anxious about opening up to someone new or to worry about being judged for your feelings and experiences. From the very beginning, my aim is to put you at ease by creating a warm, non-judgmental space where you can safely express and explore every emotion and thought. I want therapy to be a journey of healing and discovery that feels comfortable and supportive, allowing you to grow and learn at your own pace.

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.
