Much of the human experience is shaped by relationships and attachment. Our early attachment experiences influence how we connect, communicate, and relate to others throughout life. When these patterns no longer serve us, they can create distress and disconnection in our relationships. I work with people from all walks of life who want to better understand their attachment patterns, break unhelpful cycles, challenge limiting core beliefs, and improve communication. My goal is to support meaningful change that fosters healthier, more secure, and fulfilling relationships. I am a holistic, person-centered marriage and family therapist with specialized training in attachment theory and relational healing. I support individuals, couples, and families who struggle to feel understood, express emotions, or have their needs met, helping foster safety, connection, and meaningful change. My approach is rooted in the belief that connection is at the heart of healing. When individuals feel seen, heard, and valued, they are better able to access their strengths, build insight, and create meaningful change. I strive to create a safe, supportive space where clients can explore their experiences without judgment and with genuine curiosity. I work collaboratively with clients, recognizing them as the experts of their own lives. Together, we identify patterns, strengthen communication, and develop practical tools that support healthier relationships with others and with oneself. I also believe in the resilience and capacity for growth within every person and family. Even in moments of disconnection, pain, or uncertainty, there is opportunity for repair, understanding, and transformation. My role is not to direct, but to guide, to help clients reconnect with their values, deepen their relationships, and move toward a more grounded and fulfilling life.

Hi, my name is Vienna Aslanian, and I have been practicing as a licensed therapist since the beginning of 2017. I chose to become a therapist after practicing in the field of social work with children and families. Witnessing the trauma and the way that trauma impacted those individual lives caused me to develop an interest in and concern for individuals struggling with PTSD and childhood trauma. Seeing the intergenerational struggles and hearing people's personal stories on the matter made me interested in the field of therapy. I have always enjoyed listening to people's stories and making a genuine connection with someone. I believe in the healing power of therapy and the importance of the therapeutic relationship. I believe in the importance of active listening and supportive guidance. I believe in the importance of empathy and nonjudgment; I value making you feel cared about and understood. I hold myself to high expectations regarding reliability and consistency in order to provide the best support and care possible. I attend training regularly on the best and most effective practices/therapeutic modalities.

My name is Elizabeth and I am a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in the states of Texas and Arizona. I am also a certified school counselor and transitioned to full-time mental health counseling after working as a high school counselor. I have been working as a counselor for 10 years, primarily in the school setting. I helped my students with issues such as family problems, academic struggles, relationship issues, trauma/abuse, ADHD, autism, depression, anxiety, perfectionism, grief, and suicidal ideation. Before working as a counselor, I was an elementary teacher for 6 years. I have experience working with adults and adolescents. I love seeing my clients understand themselves better and improve their mental health. I feel comfortable counseling people from a variety of backgrounds, especially those whose backgrounds are different than my own. My entire professional career has been spent with a primarily Hispanic population, but I am comfortable with other cultures, as well. I am a big fan of CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) and Solutions-focused therapy, but I try to cater my counseling to each client, so I often incorporate different counseling philosophies as needed. I believe my clients are the experts on their own lives and I want to work with them to improve their contentment, coping skills, and mental health. I believe it is important and beneficial to have a nonjudgmental, unbiased person to talk to. This is one of the best parts of counseling. I often use humor to lighten the mood when counseling. I find this helps grow my relationships with my clients. Congratulations on making the first step towards getting help. I would love to work with you.

I use CBT, positive psychology, and a person-centered approach to help people understand their thoughts, regulate emotions, and respond more calmly to stress. Sessions focus on building trust, strengthening emotional awareness, and supporting individuals in finding their own voice while feeling respected, heard, and guided – not corrected or pushed. Over time, you’ll notice you become steadier, more confident, and clearer about what you want and need. Reactions soften, communication improves, and people feel better about their decisions. When you feel on top of things, you have space to grow and find your voice. There really is a better path.

Hi there, I'm Kristen. I'm a marriage and family therapist, which means that I come at clients' problems as a product of each person's individual system and the others in their lives. Every issue has a cause, but whether we can identify that cause or not, we still have to find a way forward. I help clients determine for themselves what they want to do. I come at each problem from a biopsychosocial-spiritual viewpoint. This means that every issue we deal with is influenced by our biological health, our psychological well being, our social resources, and our spiritual connection to the world around us. That gives us four different ways to address our stressors and four different paths to utilize when needed. I'm biblically trained, so I can help clients with religious or spiritual abuse, or help you rely on your spirituality to identify coping skills that will work for you. Some of my clients are not interested in spirituality, so we don't include spiritual practices in their work. Others want to focus efforts on spiritual practices, so we rely heavily in that area for them. Each client is unique, and each treatment plan is different. I see clients individually, in couples, or families depending on the need and the focus of their treatment. I'm available Monday through Thursday and have sessions as late as 8 pm.

I am a licensed therapist with over 23 years of experience helping teens and families navigate social anxiety, ADHD, and autism spectrum challenges. I specialize in working with bright but overwhelmed adolescents who struggle with emotional regulation, executive functioning, and social confidence. Many of the teens I see are intelligent and capable, yet anxiety, procrastination, or social misunderstandings interfere with school and relationships. What may look like defiance or lack of motivation is often overwhelm. I help teens understand how their brain works so they can stop seeing themselves as broken and start building practical skills. My approach is grounded in cognitive behavioral therapy and structured executive functioning strategies. I focus on helping teens manage anxious thoughts, improve follow-through, strengthen emotional control, and build authentic social confidence. Sessions are supportive but goal-oriented. I believe teens benefit from both empathy and clear direction. Parents are an important part of the process. I provide guidance on reducing power struggles, responding effectively to anxiety-driven avoidance, and creating structure that works for ADHD and autism. My goal is not only symptom reduction, but long-term growth and independence. I am committed to helping families move from frustration and tension toward clarity, confidence, and steadiness.

I also work with parents to strengthen their relationships with their children and develop effective parenting strategies that promote positive behavior. In addition, I help individuals heal from traumatic experiences, navigate grief and loss. My goal is to provide a safe, compassionate, and supportive space where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered to create meaningful, lasting change in their lives. Hola, soy Bithia, trabajadora social clínica bilingüe, ubicada en Phoenix. Durante la última década, he apoyado a niños, adolescentes, adultos y familias a enfrentar diversos desafíos de la vida. Mi experiencia clínica incluye ayudar a nuevos padres a manejar los síntomas relacionados con el período perinatal (trastornos del estado de ánimo perinatales), apoyar a los padres a fortalecer la relación con sus hijos y aprender estrategias de crianza más efectivas para mejorar el comportamiento de los niños. Ademas, ayudo a personas en el proceso de sanar experiencias traumáticas, afrontar el duelo y la pérdida. Mi objetivo es crear un espacio seguro, de apoyo y compasión, donde cada persona se sienta escuchada, comprendida y empoderada para lograr cambios significativos y duraderos en sus vida.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with a doctorate in behavioral health (DBH), providing therapy to individuals, couples, and families ready to create meaningful, lasting change. My work is grounded in an integrated, trauma-informed approach that combines evidence-based practices with a deep understanding of how emotional, relational, and behavioral patterns develop over time. I specialize in helping clients navigate trauma, anxiety, ADHD, emotional regulation challenges, and complex relationship dynamics. I also work extensively with couples who feel disconnected, stuck in recurring conflict, or are working to rebuild trust after difficult experiences. My approach is both structured and relational. I will support you in developing practical tools while also helping you understand the deeper patterns that influence how you think, feel, and connect with others. With over two decades of experience in both clinical and ministry settings, I bring a holistic perspective that considers the emotional, psychological, and, when desired, spiritual aspects of healing. For clients who value faith as part of their journey, I offer Christian counseling that is respectful, client-led, and clinically grounded. Clients often describe my style as direct, supportive, and engaging. I aim to create a space where you feel understood, challenged, and equipped to move forward with clarity and confidence. If you’re ready to invest in your growth and take intentional steps toward change, I’d be honored to work with you.

I have lived a long and colorful life. Like everyone else, I've made good and bad choices and learned from each. I have 22+ years experience in the mental health and substance abuse treatment field. I DO NOT JUDGE, AT ALL, PERIOD. I can be both blunt and gentle as appropriate. My role is to offer another perspective, a way to see life more fully and function better, no more, no less. I don't pretend to have all the answers but only one slice of wisdom. I just share what can help someone. Some people are not yet ready to be helped. Yet for those who are feeling lost on life's journey and are willing to listen and learn, I'm here to assist. My life work can be summed up in three words, "offering people hope. " "The wound is where the light enters." - Jeladdin Rumi "A coward dies a thousand deaths, a brave man only once." Martin Luther King Jr. "Wouldn't take nothin' for my journey now." - Maya Angelou "The past is gone, and there is left only a blessing." - Kahlil Gibran "Be true to yourself, and you will be false to no one else." - William Shakespeare "How very lucky are we, for just a moment to be, part of life's eternal rhyme."

Frequently asked questions

When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in Arizona. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across Arizona from Tucson to Mesa! If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near you in Arizona.

When booking you’ll be asked to verify with your Member ID. However, if you don’t have any of the insurances available you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary.

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need. For example, your selected specialty, Child or Adolescent, is filtering therapists in Arizona that work with patients with similar concerns.

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs. Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center.Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
