Addiction Therapists in Phoenix, AZ

Whether you're dealing with depression, anxiety, stress, substance use, relationship issues, or even crisis situations I can assist with developing a personalized treatment plan. I have worked with a variety of clients including Veterans and First Responders, seniors, the LGBTQ+ community and people from various cultures.

I enjoy working with people who want to grow, and who realize they need to change old ways and patterns that no longer serve them, but instead bring pain. In my practice, I've worked with people in all kinds of pain, and with all kinds of problems. I've helped people struggling with relationship problems, family issues, anxiety, depression, substance use and trauma. Over the 17 years that I've been counseling, I've learned that everyone needs to tell their story, to be heard, and understood. I've learned compassion, kindness, and non-judgement are all important in the healing process.

My experience is extensive working with many populations with diverse backgrounds, utilizing culturally appropriate treatment models. I use multiple treatments depending on my clients' unique needs.

With 10 years of counseling experience, I utilize an integrative approach to therapy that includes a blend of insight-oriented talk therapy, CBT, trauma-informed care, and experiential techniques such as Brainspotting, and IFS-informed therapy. Whether you're navigating relational challenges, compulsivity issues, sexual addiction, communication barriers, life transitions, trauma, or mental health hurdles like anxiety and depression, I focus on creating a non-judgmental environment for you to work through challenges.

Pain from the past or fear about the future might make it difficult to enjoy the present. If this describes you or a teen you care about, I want you to know there is hope. My name is Kerrey, and I'm glad you found my bio. I enjoy working with teenagers and adults who are striving to be their best selves. I practice therapy at Choose Health and Happiness Counseling in a comfortable, inviting space at the Scottsdale location on Shea Boulevard.

Nobody begins their journey with gambling or substance use intending to develop an addiction. Initially, it serves as an enjoyable distraction, a temporary respite from life’s hardships. However, over time, gambling, drugs, and alcohol become convenient remedies for various problems such as trauma, fear, feelings of abandonment, domestic violence, low self-esteem, anger, anxiety, depression, codependency, and more. The unfortunate reality is that these addictions, along with other emotional issues, can devastate lives and families. Yet, addiction doesn’t have to dictate one’s life. There are healthier alternatives available!

Are you hurt and angry about the DISCOVERY or DISCLOSURE of your partner's or spouse's SEXUAL SECRETS? Have some of the things you once trusted and relied upon in life later proven to be false or been buried beneath layers and layers of deception?

Your distress is valid and what you're feeling is quite normal, and yet it's all incredibly disconcerting. Fortunately, you do have someone to talk to. I'll listen, answer your questions, and help guide you through this difficult time. I hope you'll give me a call!

Currently Accepting New Clients. Welcome! I have over 20 years of professional experience in mental health counseling. I work with adults and teenagers (13+). If you are experiencing depression, anxiety, self-esteem issues, anger, substance addiction, adjusting to physical disabilities or chronic illness, a major life change, racial identity issues, work or school challenges, and problems in relationships with family or friends, I would love to be the one to help.

I want you to know that I empathize deeply with your struggle with mental health, whether it is anxiety, depression, trauma and/or addiction. These symptoms can be an overwhelming and isolating experience. I believe that you can take control of your life, in the present and focus on the future, to bear unavoidable suffering and inescapable uncertainty that may affect you now. It is in these darkest moments, with the right attitude, there is potential for meaning and purpose to emerge.

If you are here, I imagine you may be feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or you are unsure what you may be feeling. Whether you have been to therapy before or considering trying it for the first time, I am committed to helping you identify and remove the barriers of eating disorders, trauma, depression, anxiety, addiction, life transitions, relationship issues, and problematic sexual behaviors. I will work with you to remove these barriers by establishing a safe, empathetic, and supportive environment. In addition, I will work to facilitate a strong therapeutic relationship, which I find to be a catalyst of change.

My priority is fostering a confidential and caring working relationship through which you can explore areas for growth and your existing resilience. My training and experience in multiple unique settings with a diverse client base has helped me to develop a strong belief in individuals’ power to bring sustainable change to their lives. I acknowledge the difficulty involved in taking the first steps toward initiating psychotherapy. Please reach out for individual or couple’s therapy consultation if you have general questions or would like to determine whether I would be a good fit to help you address your needs.

I appreciate you taking this first step towards improving your personal health. I understand seeking mental health treatment may seem daunting at first, but I am here to help you identify your personal goals and areas you wish to improve, rather than impose a specific agenda on you. I truly believe you are the best person to lead your own treatment. I would be honored to help you and walk with you down your path of self-improvement.
