Lupe Macias-Hidalgo
Counselor/Therapist, License Associate Counselor, (LAC)
As a bilingual therapist, I am committed to creating a safe, affirming space where clients can explore their identities, heal from past experiences, and reconnect with their sense of worth. I believe healing begins in spaces where we feel seen, heard, and validated. My work is grounded in trauma‑informed care, cultural humility, and a deep respect for each person’s lived story. I support clients in navigating identity development, family dynamics, neurodivergence, and gender‑affirming journeys with compassion and steadiness. My intention is to meet clients exactly where they are and walk alongside them as they build clarity, confidence, and emotional resilience.

Urim Recovery, LLC
Therapist, Certified Trauma Therapist, LCSW
My approach to healing is client-centered through an attachment-based perspective to help clients attain inner calm and a sense of control. I offer supportive counseling with a keen eye for pinpointing your self-defeating patterns, strengths and solutions. What's unique about my approach is my emphasis on in-between session support and activity that empowers individuals to implement what they learn in sessions in practical ways that address their real life stuck points and triggers.
The aim is that you grow in resiliency and confidence to attain welcomed changes in your life. You are wired for healing and connection, and my job is to help you experience this. Key characteristics of my style include being genuine and direct with an emphasis on helping clients find purpose and emotional stability.

Kathleen Field
Therapist, LAC
What drives me in this work is both personal and professional. My own life experiences, and the meaningful relationships I’ve built along the way, have greatly shaped how I show up as a counselor. I’m inspired daily by the courage I see in my clients—their ability to overcome obstacles, heal from trauma, and reconnect with a sense of purpose. That transformation is what motivates me to do this work with care, dedication, and hope. I believe that we aren’t meant to navigate life’s hardest seasons alone. Whether you’re a young adult struggling with identity, purpose, or relationships—or a parent trying to break generational patterns while raising a family—therapy can be a powerful place for healing. I work with motivated individuals and families who want to create healthier patterns and more fulfilling relationships. Many of my clients are navigating low self-worth, recovering from abusive relationships, or experiencing the transitions of pregnancy, postpartum, and parenting.

Dr. Janelle Louis
Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, ND, PMHNP-BC
Are you or your child struggling with anxiety, mood swings, depression, or lingering effects of past trauma—even though you’ve tried traditional treatment and it just hasn’t been enough? I'm Dr. Janelle Louis, and I use a unique combination of holistic interventions, medication management, and psychotherapy to help children and adults with anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, or a history of traumatic experiences find lasting emotional wellness. As both a licensed naturopathic doctor (Vermont) and a psychiatric nurse practitioner (Arizona, Washington state), I bring a unique, integrative perspective to psychiatric and medical healthcare. My background includes experience supporting individuals with anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, hormonal mental health disorders, autoimmune and metabolic conditions that affect mental health, and trauma-related concerns. With a foundation in holistic, root-cause medicine and hands-on experience in emergency and inpatient behavioral health settings, I provide compassionate, evidence-based psychiatric and medical care that respects my patients’ values, while addressing the full complexity of their needs. I blend evidence-based therapy—including CBT and trauma-informed approaches—with thoughtful medication management and holistic interventions to help children, teens, and adults live their healthiest and best lives.

Ema Grant
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS LPC
So, you're looking to start therapy? You've probably held it all together for a long time, and finally reached a breaking point. Maybe you're struggling to perform at work, your relationships are really tense, friendships feel empty and shallow, or you're not able to enjoy the things you used to. It’s time to deal with that. You don't have to be miserable, and you don't have to keep hitting dead-ends trying to get what you want. Therapy can help you figure out what's not working, and learn what actually does work. You can have fulfilling relationships and a sense of meaning and purpose, you just have to be willing to show up.

Kelsi McMartin
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
My clients often say.. "you nailed it!" when I offer my sense of things. Maybe its my 20 plus years in the field, maybe its pattern recognition, or maybe its intuition... hard to say. I have a way of getting to the heart of things with my clients. In these days of so much outside noise, it can be hard to tune in to what's really important, what's really needed. I help my clients connect with this and with the unlived parts of themselves.

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.

Ed White - Logos Addiction Counseling, LLC
Drug and Alcohol Counselor, MS, LIAC
Getting sober can be hard! I provide my clients with insight, support, empathy, and purpose as they walk down the road of recovery by helping them make sense of their world and clean up their wreckage. Most people have very little to no understanding of why they use and all they do know is that their addiction is destroying their relationships, ruining their health, and hurting their stability and well-being in life. I can help you understand the underlying reasons why your addiction may be there and how to overcome and be free. I am very familiar with the challenges of getting sober and am here to help with your struggles!

Carolyne Mburu-Gerena
Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, PMHNP-BC
My approach to mental health care is collaborative, compassionate, and rooted in the belief that each person’s story matters. I work with teens and adults who are navigating challenges such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, stress, and life transitions. My goal is to create a supportive space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to move toward meaningful change.
In our work together, I combine psychiatric medication management with brief therapeutic support. This allows us to address symptoms while also exploring practical strategies that improve daily functioning, resilience, and overall wellbeing. I believe mental health is influenced by many factors, including stress, sleep, lifestyle, and physical health. I take a whole-person approach when developing treatment plans.
Seeking help can be a big step, and my role is to walk alongside you in that process. Together, we focus on identifying what is getting in the way of the life you want to live and creating a path forward that feels realistic and sustainable.
My goal is not only to help reduce symptoms but to support you in building a life that feels balanced, fulfilling, and aligned with your values.

Phoenix's extreme summer heat and sprawling, car-dependent geography contribute to social isolation and depression, with many residents spending months in largely indoor environments with limited organic social contact. The city has grown rapidly through domestic migration, and therapists frequently work with the disconnection and loneliness that can accompany life in a place where many people lack long-established roots and community ties. Phoenix has a significant veteran population, and therapists specializing in military trauma, PTSD, and veteran family concerns are well represented. Banner Health and Dignity Health provide major institutional mental health resources, with a large private practice community serving Scottsdale, Tempe, and the East Valley.
