You're exhausted from wondering if things will ever actually change.

It’s been a long time since you’ve felt truly connected to yourself — like you.

You question your instincts. Replay conversations. Second-guess your decisions.
Even the smallest moments feel heavy with self-doubt or shame.

You’ve mastered the art of appearing “fine,” but under the surface, it’s a different story.
The overwhelm, the inner critic, the emotional fatigue — they’re constant companions.

Your relationships may feel strained. Arguments loop without resolution.
You crave connection, but the disconnection keeps winning.

You want something different.
To feel grounded. Whole. Like you're finally moving forward instead of staying stuck in cycles that no longer serve you.

You’ve done the work — the podcasts, the therapy, the journaling, the late-night spirals — but something still feels unfinished. Like you’ve been skimming the surface, and what you need is a deeper shift.

At Evolve Therapy, your therapy is designed for exactly this kind of moment —
when you’re ready for real healing, not just more coping.

Hi, I'm Beth — and if you're ready for real change, you're in the right place.

I work with adults who are tired of surface-level therapy.

If you’ve done the self-help, talked it out, and still feel stuck, you’re not alone. Most of my clients are self-aware and exhausted from trying to manage trauma, anxiety, or chronic pain without real relief.

I don’t shy away from the hard stuff—whether it’s nervous system dysregulation, long-standing relationship dynamics, or the emotional toll of physical pain. I show up fully in session so you don’t have to filter what you say or how you say it.

Together, we’ll look at what’s underneath the patterns that keep showing up in your life. My approach blends neuroscience with body-based therapy and practical tools to help you feel more stable and connected.

If you’re looking for a trauma therapist in Phoenix who will meet you where you are, go deep, and stay real—I’d be honored to work with you.

    Therapy Intensives

    A therapy intensive is an immersive therapeutic experience that allows for extended, focused work on specific challenges. Unlike standard sessions, which are typically 50 minutes, intensives last anywhere from 90 minutes to 6 hours—or even multiple days—providing a concentrated and transformative space to work through specific challenges and find clarity.

    Parts Work Therapy

    Parts work attends to the internal conflicts of our personality that, when left unresolved, can interfere with efforts toward healing. Parts work is vital to healing PTSD/complex trauma, dissociation, and chronic pain. We utilize Structural Dissociation Theory, Ego State Therapy, and Internal Family Systems (IFS).

    Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

How Therapy Works

1. Start with a consultation
We’ll schedule a 15-minute consultation to talk through your questions and make sure we’re a good fit. No pressure—just a chance to connect and get clear.

2. Choose your path
We’ll meet weekly or in a focused therapy intensive—whatever fits best. Sessions are a space to dig into what’s really going on, process stuck experiences, and get tools that actually help.

3. Make real shifts and get clear
You’ll gain clarity, self-trust, and tools to change the patterns that keep you stuck—in your relationships, your body, and your daily life.

You’re ready to stop just managing and actually feel better.
I want to help you get there.
