Individual Therapy in Phoenix, AZ

Deciding to start therapy is one of the most courageous things a person can do. Whether you’re carrying the weight of anxiety, navigating a painful transition, or simply sensing that something inside you is ready to shift — we’re here to walk alongside you. The body knows. And when it’s ready, we’re ready.

At The Kineo Center, we offer individual therapy that is genuinely personal. We don’t follow a script or apply a one-size-fits-all approach. Instead, we take time to understand your story, your nervous system, and your goals — then build a therapeutic relationship that can hold all of it. Healing isn’t linear, and we know that. We work with the whole person: mind, body, and the deeper patterns that connect them.

Who We Help

Our therapists work with adults navigating a wide range of challenges, including:

Anxiety, chronic worry, and panic
Depression, low mood, and emotional flatness
Past or present trauma (both ‘big T’ and ‘little t’ events)
Grief, loss, and major life transitions
Low self-worth and inner critic patterns
Relationship difficulties and attachment wounds
Burnout, identity questions, and personal growth
Family-of-origin pain, including growing up in homes affected by addiction or dysfunction

If you don’t see your specific struggle listed above, reach out anyway. Many of the people we work with have tried to name what’s wrong and come up short — and that’s okay. We’re good at helping people figure it out together.

Our Approach

Healing isn’t just cognitive — it lives in the body, in your relationships, and in patterns you may not even realize are running. That’s why our Phoenix therapists draw from a range of evidence-based methods to meet you where you are:

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) — for processing traumatic memories and reducing their emotional charge
Internal Family Systems (IFS) — for understanding and integrating the different ‘parts’ of yourself that are often in conflict and healing our inner wounded child
Restoration Therapy — for transforming relational pain into resilience and changing patterns at their root
Somatic and body-based approaches — for reconnecting with your nervous system and sense of safety
CBT, DBT, and ACT — for building practical coping skills, emotional regulation, and clarity about your values
Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) — for those ready to explore deeper, accelerated inner work

What to Expect

Your first step: a free 15-minute consult
Before anything else, we offer a complimentary 15-minute phone consultation. This is a chance for us to hear a little about what’s bringing you in, answer your questions, and make sure Kineo feels like the right fit. There’s no pressure and no commitment.

Your first session
Your initial session is a chance to share your story at whatever pace feels comfortable. Your therapist will ask questions, listen carefully, and begin getting a picture of your history, your current struggles, and what you’re hoping for. Many clients tell us they leave their first session feeling lighter — simply because they’ve been genuinely heard.

Ongoing sessions
Most clients meet weekly, though the rhythm that’s right for you will emerge naturally. Sessions are 50-55 minutes and take place at our Phoenix office at 5320 N. 16th St., Suite 110, or via telehealth if you prefer.

Common Questions

How long does therapy take?
There’s no single answer. Some clients work through a specific issue in 8–12 sessions. Others find that longerterm therapy opens doors to deeper change. We’ll revisit the question of timing with you throughout the process.

Do you accept insurance?
Please contact us directly at 602.456.2835 or visit our contact page to ask about current insurance and payment options.

Do you offer telehealth?
Yes. Several of our therapists see clients virtually, giving you access to quality individual therapy in Phoenix (and throughout AZ) without the commute.

What if I’ve had a bad therapy experience before?
You’re not alone. Many of our clients come to us after therapy that felt flat, or even harmful. We take that seriously and move at a pace that feels safe to you.
