Please note that there is a therapy dog on premise at Joshua Tree Counseling, his name is Henry and you can learn more about him here. Henry is a gentle giant who likes to lazily lay around in the hallway and enjoys greeting clients in the waiting area. He is tolerant, intuitive, and submissive; he doesn’t slobber, he moves slow, and he has experience with babies and small children (and pestering puppies). He loves treats and we have several jars of them around the office that you are free to give him. Henry joins Rachel in sessions, often curling up with you on the couch if you want him to.
If you have an aversion or allergy to dogs, please contact the practice manager Kelly at (520) 308-4999 by call or text prior to your first session so arrangements can be made for you to have no contact with Henry or to have a meet-and-greet prior to increase your comfort level.
Although the world is full of suffering, it is also full of the overcoming of it.
Joshua Tree Counseling is a counseling collective with two locations in northwest Tucson offering Christian counseling, traditional mental health counseling, traditional couples counseling, Christian marriage counseling, counseling for children and teens, traditional trauma therapy, and Christian trauma therapy. Our counselors are experienced, highly skilled, deeply compassionate, nonjudgmental and seriously committed to your healing and mental and emotional well-being. We are bonded together by our desire to help others heal and by our Christian faith.
Our collective of licensed counselors offers traditional counseling and Christian counseling (based of your stated preference). A licensed counselor can evaluate, diagnose and treat mental health conditions and disorders. If faith isn’t important to you or you’ve been wounded by the church or a religious family/upbringing, we want you to know that you’ll receive professional counseling without judgment, bias, or any religious weirdness. If you are seeking traditional, non-faith based counseling, you will receive counseling with an ethical integrity
Our collective of pastoral counselors provide 100% faith-based counseling by ordained, masters level counselors who approach human suffering through the intentional integration of Scripture, Biblical truths, and supportive counseling models and theories. Pastoral counselors do not evaluate, treat or diagnose mental health conditions.
The Joshua Tree Counseling building is cozy, with living room-like furniture and low lighting. When you arrive we hope you’ll make a coffee or tea and grab a snack before sitting in our comfortable waiting area. Soft piano music plays and gentle essential oils scent the air. Each office is uniquely decorated so you’re more likely to feel like you’re sitting in a living room than an office.
We want you to think of Joshua Tree as a home-base for your mental and emotional health needs. We’ve created a private, home-like setting where you can come and work with a professional or pastoral counselor towards your goals for mental wellness and healing. If in-person counseling isn’t for you, several of our therapist offer telehealth counseling.
