Hello! I'm Matt and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in Arizona and California. In my life, I’ve seen many people with a broad spectrum of challenges. I’ve also seen that hope and relief are possible. I offer a unique perspective in getting you that help. I enjoy seeing individuals and families solve problems and feel closer together. My experience comes from providing direct mental health and behavioral counseling for kids, teens, and adults with a variety of presenting issues including anxiety, autism, Asperger's syndrome, depression, stress, relationship and family issues, life transitions, parenting, and caregiving issues in a variety of settings. My approach and therapy style draws influence from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Mindfulness, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). It is important that you and I work together as a team using a collaborative approach and that I meet you where you are. Previously, I worked in a private practice as a clinician, consultant, and supervisor. I have also worked at a nonprofit mental health clinic as a clinician, supervisor, consultant, and trainer. This background gave me the opportunity to work with individuals, families, and couples with a wide variety of presenting issues. I have supported those dealing with autism, Asperger's syndrome, anger issues, anxiety, depression, PTSD, young adult issues, life transitions, men's issues, parenting, caregiving, substance abuse and at-risk adolescent behavior. I also assist crisis response and first responders through their difficult experiences. I hold a Master’s degree in Counseling Psychology from Santa Clara University and an undergraduate degree in Psychology from San Jose State University. I am also certified by the Behavior Analyst Certification Board as a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) and licensed as a Licensed Behavior Analyst in Arizona. Early in my career, I had the privilege of working with a young couple who were facing significant challenges in their relationship. They had been together for several years but found themselves constantly caught in arguments and unable to communicate effectively. Their frustration and despair were palpable during our initial sessions. As we began our journey together, I witnessed their commitment to each other and their genuine desire to rebuild their connection. Over time, we delved into the underlying issues contributing to their conflicts, exploring patterns of communication, past experiences, and individual needs. One memorable session stands out vividly in my mind. It was a breakthrough moment when they both expressed vulnerability and shared their deepest fears and insecurities. In that moment of raw honesty, walls crumbled, and empathy flourished. It was a turning point in their relationship as they discovered newfound understanding and compassion for each other. Through dedication and hard work, they gradually transformed their relationship into one characterized by mutual respect, open communication, and genuine intimacy. Witnessing their growth and resilience was incredibly rewarding, and it reinforced my belief in the transformative power of therapy and the resilience of the human spirit. This experience deeply informs my approach to therapy, emphasizing the importance of fostering a safe and supportive environment where clients can explore their challenges, discover their strengths, and embark on a journey of healing and growth together.

Hello! My name is Jessica Milgrome, and I have been a licensed mental health clinician for the past 10 years. I am also a Certified Rehabilitation Counselor (Career Counselor) and a Nationally Certified Counselor. My therapeutic approach is centered around the belief that therapy should be the least stressful aspect of your life. I have a very modern, casual style, and I aim to create a supportive and relaxed environment where you can feel comfortable and open. I have a very informal, direct, and casual style of communicating, often incorporating humor into our sessions. I like to ask questions and am happy to direct the session if that’s preferred, or I can simply sit and listen. I appreciate when clients tell me if they are seeking guidance, feedback, or just want to vent. I have worked with clients facing a wide range of concerns, including but not limited to depression, anxiety, ADHD, and relationship issues such as breakups and marital conflicts. I also have experience in managing more severe mental health conditions like psychosis and trauma. My expertise extends to helping individuals cope with grief and loss, as well as addressing anger management issues. In addition to these areas, I focus on the development of interpersonal relationships, helping clients build and maintain healthy connections with others. I provide practical support with job placement and interview skills training, assisting clients in navigating career transitions and enhancing their professional lives. Most importantly, I offer guidance in cultivating self-love and navigating the process of forgiveness. I believe that developing a strong sense of self-worth and the ability to forgive oneself and others are crucial steps toward emotional healing and personal growth. My approach is holistic, addressing both the emotional and practical aspects of my clients' lives to help them achieve a balanced and fulfilling life. To give you an idea of the type of person I am—I'm a massive fan of stand-up comedy (laughing is life), I actually look forward to Mondays because that’s when Spotify releases new Discover Weekly playlists, and "When words fail, let the music speak" is essentially my mantra. Oh, and I have six dogs! As a therapist, my goal is to help my clients become the best version of themselves. Working together, we will improve self-esteem, identify triggers of symptoms, develop and effectively utilize coping skills, explore psychoeducational materials on areas of concern, facilitate and improve family relationships, discuss the effects of psychotropic medications, and develop a strong sense of self. My counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I do not believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, psychodynamic, and rational-emotive counseling. I will tailor our dialogue and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps toward change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you. I look forward to working with you! Jessica Milgrome
