Hi! I'm Rena, owner of Phoenix Mental Health Services. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with over a decade of experience helping kids, teens, and adults navigate trauma, anxiety, depression, ADHD, life transitions, and everything in between. 

I specialize in PTSD/Trauma therapy. My approach is warm, direct, collaborative, and unapologetically human. I believe therapy works best when you can show up as yourself. No filtering, no perfect words, and no need to pretend you've got everything figured out. There's room for the hard stuff, the funny stuff, the swear-y stuff, and everything in between.

I'm trained in EMDR and use evidence-based, trauma-informed approaches tailored to each person. Therapy isn't one-size-fits-all, and neither are people. I'll meet you where you're at, but I'm also not afraid to push you when it matters. We'll make space for the hard conversations, question the bullshit you've been taught to believe about yourself, and figure out what actually works for you. Showing up for yourself is a pretty big deal. We can figure out the rest together.

Outside of therapy, you'll usually find me with my husband, two kids, and two dogs, listening to '90s and early 2000s hip-hop, watching true crime documentaries, or getting lost in a thriller while confidently guessing the wrong ending. I appreciate sarcasm, genuine conversations, and people who embrace their weird. Life is hard enough. Sometimes you just need to laugh, cry, scream, or do all three before noon.

Therapeutic Approaches:

• EMDR/ Flash Therapy

• Client-Centered Therapy

• Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

• Trauma-informed and somatic-based interventions
