I am a licensed therapist specializing in adult individual therapy as well as adult DBT skills group therapy.  I would like to help you find balance in your life by working with you to identify your innate strengths as well as potential barriers that may be keeping you stuck. These may be thoughts, feelings, or past memories and/or experiences. I hold a B.A. degree in Business from Michigan State University and master's degree in social work (MSW) from Arizona State University. Before becoming a therapist, I spent several years in the corporate world working in semiconductors and volunteering for non-profit organizations. After my time in a corporate setting, I spent several years as a stay-at-home mom raising children and then returned to graduate school to pursue my passion in mental health.

I have specialized training in EMDR therapy (a specialized trauma therapy used to heal PTSD, C-PTSD, Single
Incident Trauma, and many other trauma related symptoms) as well as IFS (Internal Family Systems Therapy) and DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy) for treatment of disorders relating to emotional dysregulation and difficulty with interpersonal skills. Additional modalities and therapies I use include CBT (Cognitive Behavior Therapy), Solution-Focused therapy, Attachment based therapies, Mindfulness, and Somatic therapies.  I integrate these therapy modalities and techniques to assist you on your path to finding balance whether that be dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, life stressors, or any of number of challenges we each face. 

I value continuous learning; therefore, I attend advanced trainings, seek professional consultation, and participate in peer consultation so I have up to date skills and knowledge to help you reach your treatment goals.  Additionally, I offer a down to earth and authentic therapy style which allows clients to develop trust and rapport with me, a key component to successful therapy. You are important and deserve to live your life in a way that is right for you and is in line with your values. I hope that my diverse life experiences, authentic style, and clinical expertise can help you.

I also am an approved clinical supervisor by the Arizona Board of Behavioral Health (AZBBHE), which allows me to provide clinical oversight, mentoring, and coaching to associate level clinicians during the residency years.

Jennifer Fogle, LPC

Therapist

I am originally from Dallas, TX. I graduated from Lincoln Christian University with a Masters in Counseling in 2016. I am EMDR therapy trained (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and IFS(Internal Family Systmes) Informed Other therapies that I use are Theraplay Attachment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solutions Focused Therapy, and Spiritual Counseling. I use these therapies in couples counseling, individual counseling, and family counseling. I believe that counseling should be empowering and healing while it provides a safe space to be seen, known, and valued. 

I specialize in helping individuals process their current life situations. Whether your distress is from anxiety, depression, grief, relational conflict or previous trauma, I provide a safe space for you to do the hard work of healing and growing. In today's world, there is so much pressure to be okay even when we aren't. Sometimes, we attempt to manage these issues in unhealthy ways which leads to poor coping skills or by over-performing for others resulting in loss of self. It is my passion to help people reconnect with their authentic selves and feel peace with who they are.

I am also passionate about helping couples identify the root cause of their issues and break the patterns of conflict that are interrupting the joys of partnership. I provide a space for both partners to be heard and understood while we process the areas of distress that have presented themselves in the relationship. Many times these issues stem from unhealthy communication patterns, previous trauma from before the relationship began, mood disorders, infidelity or insecure attachment styles. Through a variety of modalities, we address these issues and work towards a mutually satisfying relationship that allows both partners to feel seen, known and loved. 

I believe that people are at their best when they feel valued within their family system. Together, we work on healthy attachments and process family conflict in a safe and equal environment for all. It is important to approach families both as individuals and as a system in order to help identify where the issues are and address them. Through the Attachment Model, I am able to provide families with a place where each individual is listened to and supported as they seek to heal and grow together. In our family sessions, a variety of models can be used to help engage the entire family system: adults, adolescents, children, and even adult children.
