Our therapists offer PTSD & trauma therapy in Phoenix, AZ

Hi, I'm Kiersten, a licensed clinical social worker dedicated to helping individuals navigate life's challenges. I work with individuals throughout the lifespan struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, relationship challenges, and self-esteem. My approach is shaped by professional training and lived experiences, grounded in the belief that healing happens when people feel truly seen and accepted. Many of my clients feel overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, or stuck. They come to therapy wanting to understand themselves, develop coping skills, heal from the past, and strengthen relationships.

My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and individualized. I integrate evidence-based approaches including EMDR, CBT, DBT, mindfulness, and Sandtray Therapy to meet your unique needs. Our work is guided by your goals and what feels most supportive.

Reaching out for support takes courage, and you don't have to navigate this alone. I'll meet you with compassion and authenticity, genuinely committed to helping you feel seen and supported. I hope to provide a space where you feel accepted and encouraged moving forward. If you feel we may be a good fit, I invite you to schedule an appointment.
