Josie Self, MA, LAC, NCC
I’m Josie Self, a National Board Certified Counselor and Licensed Associate Counselor. I provide expert psychotherapy for women, men, and couples in Gilbert, Chandler, Queen Creek, and the surrounding East Valley. My work is grounded in attachment-focused, trauma-informed care. I don’t place bandaids on complex issues. You are not a problem to be fixed, but a person to be understood.
My Approach Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, or trauma related to difficult experiences you’ve walked through, I offer trauma-informed therapy to help you regain a sense of peace, stability, and clarity. I’m here to meet you where you are and walk alongside you on your journey toward healing.
offering trauma-informed mental healthcare
At East Valley Mental Health, my work focuses on anxiety, relationships, and the emotional complexities that arise during seasons of transition – including pregnancy, postpartum, and early parenthood. My approach is built on compassion and understanding to make sure you feel seen, heard, and supported every step of the way.
