Taking the first step towards therapy shows incredible courage and strength. I understand that opening up to someone new can be difficult, and I’m honored you’ve chosen St. Clare Counseling. My promise is to offer you compassion, understanding, and support as you begin your healing journey.

To truly understand you and your needs, I offer an in-depth intake session. Together, we’ll create a personalized treatment plan with realistic goals and timelines that empower you to reach your desired outcomes.

This is a supervised private practice. It is managed by a masters level non-independent licensee under Board approved supervision pursuant to A.A.C. R4-6-221.

The Supervisor is Jessica Clausen, LCSW, (602) 598-5042, jclausen@best-life-therapy.org

My passion lies in helping people achieve holistic well-being. I hold a BA in Sociology from Emmanuel College, an MSW from the University of Connecticut, and a graduate certificate in Applied Spirituality from the Hartford Seminary. I’m also deeply interested in health and wellness, with extensive coursework in Holistic Nutrition.

My diverse background includes experience at Harvard University, Massachusetts General Hospital, and family-owned businesses. This gives me a unique understanding of life’s challenges and the importance of providing exceptional support. Currently, I also work as an Intensive Outpatient Therapist at Aurora Behavioral Health and continue my trauma-informed education through the Arizona Trauma Institute.

Originally from New England, I’ve called Arizona home since 2009. Outside of work, I enjoy singing in my church choir, cooking, and being a proud Army Mom – Go Army, beat Navy!
