Hi, I'm Fabiola Metezier, a Registered Mental Health Counselor Intern with a Masters of Science in Counseling Psychology. I love all things therapy, and simply put, meeting people where they are for forward progression. My passion for the field has gifted me the privilege of servicing children, adolescents, and adults navigating behavioral and mood disorders and trauma. There's no one-size-fits-all approach, and my joy is to tailor methods to honor my client's unique story. Whether you're adjusting to life transitions, mental health challenges, or seeking faith-based guidance, together we'll advance recovery and strengthen autonomy. 

My approach is flexible and adaptable to you, combining proven methods, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), with culturally sensitive exploration to help you manage symptoms, build resilience, and create a more fulfilling, balanced life.

If you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or in need of a space where your emotions and spiritual beliefs can be honored, I’m here to listen and walk with you. I warmly invite you to reach out whenever you feel ready. My door is open.

I'm Toni, a nurse practitioner board-certified in psychiatric mental health and adult medicine. I provide compassionate, evidence-based psychiatric care using a collaborative approach tailored to each individual's needs. I work with adolescents and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, mood disorders, ADHD, trauma-related concerns, sleep difficulties, and other mental health challenges. Clients seek care to better understand their symptoms, improve coping skills, enhance focus, restore balance, and achieve greater emotional well-being. 

My goal is to help clients overcome barriers, build resilience, and achieve emotional balance. I provide personalized treatment plans that may include medication management and practical strategies to improve coping skills. Whether beginning your mental health journey or seeking a new approach, I offer support tailored to your unique needs.

Taking the first step toward better mental health can be difficult, but you don't have to do it alone. I provide a supportive, compassionate space where you feel heard and valued. I invite you to schedule an appointment and begin your journey toward greater balance and well-being.

I am a very experienced, compassionate, and skilled clinician. I have a Master’s in Mental Health Counseling and a Bachelor’s in Psychology. I have been licensed since 2007. I understand how early life events can shape identity and coping strategies and how these can play out to influence current situations. I am adept at helping clients gain insight and resolve past issues to prevent them from continuing to negatively impact the current situation and future events. I help clients find freedom from negative influences of the past and develop healthier and more adaptive perspectives that allow them to be the person they want to be.

I use Psychodynamic and Cognitive Behavioral strategies to help clients gain understanding into how defense mechanisms and beliefs are influencing their relationships with themselves, others, and the world around them. I use EMDR when clients are aware of a negative impact from past experiences or trauma and haven’t been able to overcome the negative effect.

I hope to get to know and understand you, offer new insights and perspectives, and help you move through any unresolved past hurts. I believe that therapy should produce significant and lasting improvements. I have a deep and sincere faith and hope this is evident in our therapeutic relationship. Schedule an appointment and I will meet you where you’re at.

I am Owen Guthrie, a Registered Clinical Social Worker Intern, with 7 years of experience supporting individuals navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, and addiction. With a background in both criminal justice and mental health, I understand how difficult it can feel to break free from cycles that no longer serve you. I partner with clients who feel weighed down but are ready for change, helping them build healthier coping skills, strengthen relationships, and uncover their inner resilience.

I hold a Master’s in Social Work from Grand Canyon University. My approach draws from my experience in criminal justice and mental health to support individuals in breaking unhealthy cycles, building coping skills, and discovering their resilience to create lasting, meaningful change.

I know how overwhelming life’s challenges can feel, and I believe no one should face them alone. I provide a safe and supportive space where you can feel heard and valued. I invite you to take the first step toward healing and growth by reaching out today—you don’t have to navigate this journey by yourself.
