Hello! My name is Kiley Huntington. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). I have been very fortunate to work with a wide spectrum of populations/people, which has strengthened my belief in the importance of people and respect for autonomy in the journey of life.
As a LPC in the state of Arizona, I work in my private practice (Castle Counseling) with the adult population providing telehealth individual counseling services. My background includes experience in multiple settings such as hospitals, inpatient/outpatient clinics, domestic violence shelter, group homes and private practice.

Recognizing that we all experience trauma, I specialize in helping individuals process their past, manage dissociation, and learn vital coping skills.

My ultimate focus is on your holistic wellbeing, guiding you to decrease symptoms, increase self-awareness, and learn to truly enjoy life again.
Binge Eating Disorder, emotional eating, and food relationship healing is a cause close to my heart both professionally and personally. The adults I work with are cycle breakers but their relationship with food keeps them feeling burnt out when they want to feel self acceptance and open to new experiences.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Tempe, AZ
Searching for therapists in Tempe starts with knowing what kind of support you want. People often look for therapy for anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, or major life transitions. As you compare therapists, look for training and listed specialties that match your needs. A therapist’s profile can show whether they use approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or acceptance and commitment therapy.
Tempe has a steady range of therapy options, with care available near central areas like Mill Avenue, Arizona State University, South Tempe, and surrounding East Valley communities. If a nearby office fits your routine, in-person therapy may be a good match. If your schedule changes often, virtual therapy can give you more appointment options across Arizona. To narrow your search, review whether a therapist is accepting new clients, offers appointment times that fit your calendar, and provides a free phone consultation. Reading bios before booking can help you understand each therapist’s communication style and what sessions may be like.
Therapy in Tempe can be a significant cost without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you find therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, verify your benefits, and show estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book. You can browse therapists in Tempe, review profiles, compare availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
