Summer Berry, LPC

Licensed Professional Counselor providing Christian counseling and general counseling services to women, men, couples, and First Responders across Arizona. 

Hello and welcome! I'm Summer, an Independently Licensed Therapist with nearly 15 years of experience dedicated to supporting folks just like you throughout Arizona. My areas of expertise include treating depression, anxiety, addiction, sexual trauma, childhood trauma, relationship issues, burnout, parenting difficulties, stress management, and anger management. I'm passionate about working with adults, couples, and first responders to overcome life's most challenging difficulties. Understanding the challenges of scheduling and limited availability, I offer convenient virtual therapy services across Arizona, including early morning and lunchtime appointments to better meet your needs. 

My approach to therapy is built on a foundation of honesty, compassion, respect, trust, healthy boundaries, and clear communication – the same stuff all healthy relationships are made of. While you'll find empathy and compassion here, I'm also not afraid to deliver hard-truths and point out any elephants in the room because these might be the very things holding you back. I'm committed to holding you accountable to do the work and step outside of your comfort zone. The reason being, this truly is the only way for meaningful change to occur-and last. Consider it as a bit of ''tough love''. 

With that said, I'm also committed to guiding you toward change at a pace that is manageable and do-able for you. Therapist is meant to be helpful, not harmful. Through honest and open communication, you and I will keep a pulse on therapy. I'll check-in with you about how therapy is working and ask for feedback. My approach is collaborative. I believe that you are the expert on your life-you know what works for you and what doesn't. My job is to provide you with new insights, tools, and understandings to help you approach your current struggles with more clarity and capability to overcome them. Together, you and I will discuss, create, and carryout a plan to do just that.
