Bipolar disorder therapists & psychiatrists in Scottsdale, AZ

College and early adulthood can feel exciting and overwhelming at the same time. I work with college students and young adults who are navigating academic pressure, shifting friendships, family expectations, dating, and big life decisions. You might look like you’re managing it all, but inside you feel anxious, unsure of yourself, or constantly comparing where you are to everyone else. Whether you’re struggling with burnout, identity questions, or just trying to figure out your next step, therapy can be a place to slow down and actually breathe.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with a PsyD in Behavioral Health Leadership and Industrial/Organizational Psychology. I primarily work with adolescents and young adults, often incorporating family members to improve communication and relational patterns. I also work with professionals and athletes to strengthen mindset, reduce stress, and enhance performance using principles from mental performance and organizational psychology. My approach integrates CBT, DBT, mindfulness, and trauma-informed care to help clients build resilience, self-awareness, and meaningful, lasting growth.

My name is Dupe, and I bring a unique blend of energy, open-mindedness, and a passion for empowerment to my work. I believe that a great partnership is built on trust and a shared vision for growth. Her style is collaborative and encouraging, focusing on building a strong partnership where clients feel supported, understood, and inspired to reach their full potential.

As a Licensed Professional Counselor with over a decade of experience in community behavioral health and trauma-informed care, I bring both professional knowledge and genuine empathy into my sessions. I earned my Master’s degree from Grand Canyon University and have spent years supporting adults, adolescents, and families through times of transition, recovery, and growth.

My work is deeply shaped by witnessing the resilience of the human spirit—how healing becomes possible when we feel seen, supported, and safe to explore what hurts. I understand that therapy is both a brave and vulnerable step, and my intention is to create a space where you can show up as you are and begin reconnecting with your own strength and direction.

Hi. My name is Christine and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. Originally from New Jersey, currently in the sunny state of Arizona. I attended Rutgers's University to obtain a Masters in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. Life can become challenging at times. My passion is helping people through their struggles and getting back to a better quality of life.

I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner at Heartland Mental Health Services, holding a Master of Science in Nursing from Walden University (2024). With over 15 years of registered nursing experience in Arizona — spanning inpatient and outpatient psychiatry, community mental health, crisis stabilization, substance-use treatment, and long-term care — I bring a compassionate, client-centered approach to every encounter. I specialize in the treatment of depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, trauma, psychosis, substance use disorders, and chronic mental illness, providing comprehensive psychiatric assessments and medication management grounded in individualized, evidence-based, collaborative care. I am committed to fostering a supportive, stigma-free environment that empowers clients to take an active role in their healing and long-term wellness.

My approach to therapy is shaped by a rich blend of professional training and lived experience. Over the past 10 years, I’ve supported clients while also integrating insights from my previous career and life journey, allowing me to meet people with empathy, understanding, and authenticity.
