At A Pawsitiive Change Counseling, LLC, everyone will be entering a journey with Psychotherapy from an Arizona State Board Certified Licensed Associate Counselor (LAC) and EMDRIA-trained Trauma Informed Care Psychotherapist. My practice has been open and busy since 2018. I follow state, local, and federal requirements, ethics, expectations, and licenses in active status. Professional Supervision is required by psychotherapists and is Lina Ouelette, LPC for Cristina. M

I do not believe therapy is just to talk at someone, be charged excessive rates, and then leaving still lost

At A Pawsitive Change Counseling, the INTENTION IS ON HEALING and EDUCATION and EMPOWERMENT.

One beneficial and science-based specialty that can be provided is EMDR or Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy. Other special techniques used are Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Person-Centered approaches, as well as what is called "Trauma Informed Care", hands-on activities, and Solution Focused Therapy.

Don't be afraid of making positive changes in your world. One step at a time and with a little guidance.

Online Scheduling

Select a service to schedule an appointment.

  • One Hour Appointment $100
    Appointments generally run about 45 minutes to 60 minutes. Payment is due at the time of appointment. A "No-Show" fee will be applied to all technical no-show appointments (where no effort was made to cancel even with reminder texts).  Please make an effort to cancel or reschedule by either calling or texting 520-365-9233 or cancelling/rescheduling online at least an hour ahead of scheduled appointment.
  • EMDR Session Additional $40
    Select this option for commencement or continuation of an EMDR therapy session. Follows the same individual therapy at $100/hour plus $40 each session for EMDR. EMDR generally accelerates the "healing" gained via effective psychotherapy so the specialty of EMDR is common practice to have an increased rate. A package of four sessions of EMDR for $400 saves $120 and allows for faster results.
  • Couples Therapy $120
    Relationships are a part of life and can increase our feeling of well-being and connectiveness. It is common to have discord at times throughout the duration of the relationship. Couple's therapy is intended to assist in addressing specific difficulties that the couple is facing in order to improve the overall quality of the relationship. Couple's therapy allows for professional outside insight and support and a safe environment for open and honest communication. Couples therapy is helpful for pre-marital counseling as well as general couple-based psychotherapy.
  • Family Therapy $150
    Family therapy is a therapy option for families who are seeking additional support and an outside perspective of family dynamics and how to improve interpersonal relationships within the family unit.
  • Group Therapy $40
    Specific groups will be divided but starting with the most requested, youth group, we will tentatively begin group in July for others as well.

Packages

  • EMDR Four Sessions $400
    EMDR is Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing created in the 1980's by Francine Shapiro, PhD. EMDR typically focuses on treating "Trauma". What EMDR can do is much more and difficult to put in words until you are able to experience it for yourself. Peer-reviewed worldwide in publications testing the technique, the Eight Phase Protocol (which is what I use every session), and the biostatistics of effects have been deeply studied for EMDR. EMDR benefits are often seen the first session, but a package of four sessions helps increase keeping with your treatment and increasing the statistics of your own success in what you used it for.
