Hello and welcome! If you are here you have already taken the most important step and decided that you are ready to make a change and begin healing. My goal is to support you in achieving your unique goals and provide encouragement to reach your full potential.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor who primarily works with teenage and adult clients through a person centered and integrative approach to therapy. In my experience of working with youth and adults who have experienced various forms of trauma and mood disturbances, I find that a flexible approach to treatment can focus on the specific needs you intend to prioritize in our sessions. I utilize a blend of trauma processing, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), mindfulness-based approaches, and art therapy to ensure a collaborative therapeutic alliance. I provide therapy services for those struggling with depression, anxiety, stress, relationship and attachment concerns, trauma, school and work related stress, self-esteem issues, and other general mental health concerns.

I work with teens and adults to help them through struggles with phases of life, dealing with depression, anxiety, PTSD, ADHD, medical issues affecting mental health, general stress, the “I feel like something is wrong with me but I don’t know what it is” struggle, and all the other common things that affect us. I work with families, couples, and individuals who need someone to help balance everything, learn coping and communication skills, and create healthy boundaries. We will process any trauma that may be related and causing additional stress in your life along the way. I love working together with others to help them answers.

I am trained in a variety of modalities including talk therapy, mindfulness/meditation, EMDR, IFS, CBT, DBT, and am constantly striving to increase my knowledge to be able to offer the best care I can to my clients. We’re a team in the work of unraveling the past and finding the connections to current triggers. I want to help you get what you need to thrive.

If this is your first time seeking out therapy, welcome. I know it is all overwhelming. I want you to know you are not alone. There is hope. You are not broken, so you don’t need to be fixed. Everything inside is just mixed up and making it difficult to live your best life. Come in. Let me help you make sense of it all so you can be the best version of you.

Have you already tried traditional talk therapy and felt disappointed by it? Perhaps you are skeptical about trying therapy at all. Either way, I am here to help by holding a safe space for you to explore your inner world with the use of my favorite modalities: EMDR and IFS therapy. Many of the clients I work with suffer from trauma, anxiety, depression, PTSD, life transitions, and come from all walks of life. With clients, I have a compassionate approachable demeanor. Clients warm up to me quickly and I enjoy helping them to reach their goals.

EMDR and IFS informed therapies are key ingredients for finally finding some relief! Utilizing bilateral stimulation, we allow the brain to do its best work to process memories that become “stuck”, causing fears, anxiety, and depression in our present day lives.

After addressing the past and present we will take control of the future and run future oriented protocols to assist with any worry about tomorrow. This amazing work is also easily completed virtually as well.

Hi I am Marisol Morales, a holistic licensed associate counselor, I am dedicated to empowering individuals to reconnect with their authentic selves and create meaningful change. My calling to help others became clearer during my own healing journey, where I sought to break free from toxic patterns and discover deeper freedom and purpose. This alchemizing experience led me to explore Reiki and Family Constellations, ultimately inspiring me to become a certified Reiki Master and Family Constellations Facilitator. Witnessing profound healing in myself and others sparked my desire to build lasting client relationships and expand my therapeutic offerings.

Now, as I pursue my graduate studies, I integrate evidence-based approaches with holistic methods, approaching therapy with empathy and a nonjudgmental lens. Fluent in Spanish, I strive to create an inclusive environment where clients from diverse backgrounds feel understood and supported. My passion for trauma-informed care reflects my belief that traditional and alternative therapies can work together to facilitate deep healing.

I also love  Sand Tray therapy which is a hands-on, expressive approach that allows you to explore thoughts, emotions, and life experiences by creating a scene in a tray of sand, rather than relying only on words, this process helps excess deeper feelings and patterns that may be difficult to verbalize. This also can create a feeling of calm, grounding, and even meditative experiences.

Outside of work, I find joy in nature—proudly embracing my inner tree hugger! I love exploring new cultures with my family, spending quality time with my dog, reading by the fireplace, and dancing. These activities keep me grounded and balanced as I continue my journey of learning, growing, and supporting others in their healing processes.

Hi, having been born and raised in Arizona I recognizethe value of feeling like you have a place to belong. The idea of connection is a significant part of my approach as a therapist. When people feel a disconnect from others or themselves there can be suffering. This disconnection could be due to trauma, loss, anxiety, or very likely a combination of things in our history and current life demands. 

 My goal as your therapist is to facilitate the reconnection (or maybe connection for the first time) to your genuine self and the world around you.

With a trauma focused foundation, I work with those struggling with past trauma, anxiety, depression, griefand loss, stress management, adjustment issues, and decision paralysis. I have experience implementing CBT, DBT, EMDR, mindfulness techniques and other person-centered interventions and modalities.

Life can be hard. Whether you're carrying the weight of past trauma, navigating a season of anxiety or grief, or simply feeling stuck, you don't have to figure it out alone. Therapy is a place to breathe, to process, and to find your footing again. If you've been considering it, this might be your sign to take that first step.

Hi, I'm Tiffany White, a practicum student pursuing my Master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling through Colorado Christian University. I hold a Bachelor's degree in Education and a Master's degree in Counseling, and I work under the direct, ongoing supervision of Chloe Johnston at Innerlight Counseling.

I bring a trauma-informed lens to everything I do, because I believe that understanding your story — where you've been and what you've carried — is essential to helping you move forward. At the heart of my approach is a simple conviction: every person is a treasure. Regardless of race, gender, ethnicity, or sexual orientation, you deserve to be truly heard, seen, and valued.

Drawing from person-centered principles, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and reality therapy, I work to create a space that is safe, warm, and free of judgment. With a background in education and introductory play therapy training, I have a natural comfort working with children — understanding that kids often communicate and process their world differently than adults do.

I believe the therapeutic relationship itself is part of the healing — and that real, lasting change is possible when we navigate life's challenges together. Being vulnerable takes courage. I don't take that lightly. If you're ready to take that step, I would be truly honored to walk alongside you.

Have you always felt a little different, the one who never quite fit any particular crowd, maybe late-diagnosed or still wondering if you're neurodivergent? This is a space where you can take the mask off. Stim, avoid eye contact, move however your body needs to. You don't have to perform neurotypical here.

This is also a safe space for BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, and those with history in the justice system, and for anyone navigating relationships outside the traditional mold, including polyamorous, consensually non-monogamous, and other nonheteronormative relationship structures. Whoever you are and however you love, you belong here. I say this from experience: as a neurodivergent clinician myself, I understand firsthand what it's like to move through a world, and a healthcare system, that wasn't designed with your nervous system in mind. That lived experience shapes how I show up with every client who walks through my door.

I'm trained in EMDR, rooted in the Adaptive Information Processing (AIP) model, which helps the brain reprocess memories that got "stuck" and are still driving present-day anxiety, shutdown, or overwhelm. I also work IFS-informed, parts-based, and through an attachment lens, building the relationship first, then assessing the resources and skills you already have, then moving efficiently into the root cause of your symptoms rather than managing them indefinitely. I have experience with complex trauma and dissociation, and many of my clients have already done traditional talk therapy and understand their "why." What they're looking for is guidance on the "how."

Your sensory environment matters here. Lighting, sound, smell, the volume of my voice, and even modalities we use can all be adapted to your sensory profile. We'll talk through what you need in our consultation, and I'm happy to walk you through what to expect in my office in as much or as little detail as you'd like.

Therapy with me isn't meant to be forever. My goal is to help you build what you need so that, eventually, you don't need me anymore.
