Therapist Phoenix, licensed providers across the Valley of the Sun

Verified, claimed profiles are shown first, with the therapist's own description of specialties, approaches, insurance, fees and format, and an inquiry form. Further down is "More licensed providers in Phoenix", the registry section drawn from the NPPES NPI Registry, with name, credential, practice address and practice phone for providers who have not added details yet. A call to the office is the quickest way to ask about openings.

Inside Phoenix, offices are common in Arcadia, the Biltmore area, Midtown, Downtown Phoenix, North Phoenix and Ahwatukee. Scottsdale, Tempe near Arizona State University, Mesa, Chandler and Gilbert each have many practices of their own. With freeways like the 101, the 202 and I-10 linking them, a practice in the next city may be closer in time than one across Phoenix.

In the hottest months, some people prefer video sessions to a midday drive. In the winter, the Valley fills with seasonal residents, and that raises a licensing question. A therapist generally must be licensed in the state where you are located during the session, so a therapist from your home state may need an Arizona license to see you online while you stay here. Ask before you arrive, or search locally.

AHCCCS, the Arizona Health Care Cost Containment System, is the state's Medicaid program, and most members receive behavioral health services through an AHCCCS health plan that sets the network. Retirees in the Valley often ask about Medicare, and military families about TRICARE, since Luke Air Force Base is in the West Valley. Coverage varies by therapist, so ask the practice. When paying privately, fees are set by each provider, and general national ranges of roughly 100 to 250 USD per session are only a loose guide. See therapist that takes insurance and Medicaid.
