ADHD therapists and psychiatrists in Tempe, AZ

I’m an immigrant, a wife, a mother to a neurodivergent child, and neurodivergent myself. My lived experiences, including divorce, high-conflict co-parenting, navigating special education, interracial relationships, and cross-cultural communication, shape how I understand and support clients through complex, real-life challenges.

I am an independent licensed therapist who offers a warm, inviting, and safe environment to process emotions. I have a master's degree in Master's of Science: Mental Health Counseling, I work with individuals who experience trauma, anxiety, and depression.

If you’re looking for support with PTSD, complex trauma, mood disorders, ADHD, personality disorders, self-harm, or suicidal thoughts, I want you to know you don’t have to carry it alone.

Since 2017, I’ve worked with clients ages 12+ in settings ranging from wilderness therapy and inpatient hospitalization to residential treatment and private practice. I also provide individual, family, and coparenting therapy.

Taking the first step is hard — my job is to make it easier. I provide supportive, personalized medication management for ADHD, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, and more.

I’m Kristen Vallely, a Licensed Associate Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in Arizona and in Colorado I earned my Master’s in Marriage and Family Therapy from Arizona State University and also hold certifications in Sex informed therapy, EMDR, DBT, CBT, and trauma-informed care. I utilize Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Gottman Method, Solutions Focused and foundational family systems models.

In addition to traditional therapy models, I bring in a holistic and somatic lens—blending evidence-based techniques with intuitive awareness, especially for clients exploring trauma, relational healing, parenting, and alternative relationships such as polyamory.

My approach to care integrates psychotherapy with medication management. I provide therapy for patients whose psychiatric medications I also manage, allowing for a coordinated and personalized treatment plan that supports both emotional and medical aspects of mental health.

With over 20 years of experience as a Women’s Health Nurse Practitioner and now as a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, I am deeply committed to delivering compassionate, comprehensive care tailored to each individual’s unique needs. My approach integrates physical and mental health to support the whole person.

I specialize in:

• Mental health evaluations and medication management
• Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) for substance use disorders
• Gender-affirming hormone therapy

I am dedicated to creating a safe, respectful space where all individuals feel heard, supported, and empowered on their journey to wellness.

Sleep is one of the most vital components of both mental and physical well-being. I’m passionate about helping people improve their sleep quality through evidence-based, personalized care. I provide in-depth diagnosis and treatment for a wide range of sleep disorders, with a special focus on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I)—the gold standard, non-medication approach to treating chronic insomnia. Whether you're struggling to fall asleep, stay asleep, or wake up feeling refreshed, I’m here to help you reclaim restful, restorative sleep.

Hannah is a board-certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner. She has now been working in the field of nursing for over 15 years and absolutely loves what she does! She completed her B.S. in Nursing at North Park University in Chicago in 2010. After several years as a bedside nurse in the ICU and L&D, she graduated with her MSN in Midwifery in 2021. During that time she saw a need for mental health care services in the perinatal and postpartum period, so she went back to school to pursue her post-graduate certificate as Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and graduated in January 2023.
