Sheila Weisbrod
I am a Licensed Profession Counselor in the State of Arizona and an EMDR Certified Therapist. I received my Bachelor’s Degree at Northwest University in 1999, and my Master’s of Arts in Counseling Psychology at Northwest University in 2007. During my licensing period, I worked at Catholic Community Services as a child and family therapist where I became a Children’s Mental Health Specialist. I am a member of the Arizona Counselors Association and EMDRIA. I currently have a private practice in Scottsdale where I serve adult men and women in individual therapy.
I’m continually in training to learn more about the mind and body connection.

The Practice
I work with individual adult men and women. I believe growth comes from enhancing our understanding of ourselves and learning to make choices that can lead us to greater freedom and lasting positive change. Removing symptoms, changing self-defeating patterns, improving low self-esteem, working with our strengths, and developing healthy relationships are each a part of this meaningful process. I also do depression counseling, grief counseling, anxiety counseling, divorce counseling, and counseling for women's issues, life transitions (re-entering the workplace, mid-life career changes, empty nest, or retirement), boundary issues, relationship problems and intimacy issues, and spiritual identity.
I am EMDR certified. If you are looking for therapy to reduce anxiety, depression, PTSD, small t trauma, or big T TRAUMA, find out how EMDR might help you where traditional talk therapy has not. I look forward to hearing from you.
