You’re busy, you’re faithful, and you’re always there for everyone else. But behind the “I’m fine” is a heart that feels heavy, a mind that won’t stop racing, and a spirit that feels weary. Whether you’re a mom drowning in the “mental load,” a professional masking your anxiety, or someone struggling to move past a traumatic past—you don’t have to carry this alone anymore.
 
We are here to help.
Rise and Renew Wellness is an online counseling, life coaching, and Christian therapy practice in Arizona offering convenient appointments from the comfort of your own space.  Decades of experience working with clients inform our approach to treat the whole person: mind, body and spirit.

Whether you need life coaching, trauma therapy, EMDR, or support for anxiety and depression, you can access professional support from the comfort of your home. Inspired by Romans 12:2, we are here to help you rise into your purpose and renew your mind.

Hi, I’m Kelly. I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and the founder of Rise and Renew Wellness. I want you to know you are worthy of healing, and making time for yourself is an act of courage. I believe it’s no coincidence you’re here, and I’m honored to support you as you take this step toward the life you were created for.
My approach is built on a Mind-Body-Spirit framework. I use evidence-based tools like CBT to renew the mind and EMDR to release trauma stored in the body. Together, we engage the Spirit to bring lasting restoration to your soul. This is a place where you can finally be vulnerable, get to the root of the pain, and change your story for good. By offering online counseling in Arizona, I protect your precious time—no commutes, no waiting rooms—just a safe, confidential space to breathe and heal. It’s a privilege to work alongside you.
