For Gilbert
You've done the talking. Something still hasn't moved.
Gilbert clients make up a big part of this practice, and a lot of them arrive having already been to therapy. They can explain their patterns clearly. They know the words for what happened to them. And the thing itself is still sitting there, in the chest and the jaw and the 2 a.m. wake-up. Insight alone rarely finishes the job, because the body kept its own record and nobody ever went and got it. Holistic therapy means we go get it.
How We Work
- Start with the body. Breath, nervous system, and what your body does before you have words for it
- Meet the parts. The protector, the critic, the one that shuts down, each with a reason
- Go to the root with EMDR. For the memories your body still reacts to
- Keep it real. No script, no jargon, no performance of being fine
Getting here from Gilbert
The office is at 2160 E Brown Rd, Suite 3 in Mesa. From most of Gilbert that is a straight run north on Val Vista, Greenfield, or Higley, or across the 202 if you are coming from the SanTan Village side. Power Ranch, Val Vista Lakes, Morrison Ranch, Agritopia, and the Heritage District all land in the same easy range.
Plenty of Gilbert clients never make that drive. Most of the practice currently meets by secure telehealth, so if the commute is the thing standing between you and starting, it does not have to be a factor. Same therapist, same work, from your house after the kids are down.
Therapy is licensed Arizona-only and available statewide by telehealth. Coaching is available nationwide. If you are somewhere between Gilbert and Queen Creek and not sure which side of a line you fall on, reach out and we will sort it out.
What We Work With
What Gilbert clients come in for.
Every one of these has a full page if you want the detail.
Anxiety
The racing mind and the tight chest, worked from the nervous system up instead of managed forever.
Couples counseling
Communication, trust, and the same fight in a new outfit. For couples ready to learn a different language.
Parenting support
Burnout, guilt, and the things from your own childhood that surface once you have kids of your own.
Ketamine-assisted therapy
Real psychotherapy with the medicine, for what has not moved with talk alone. Not an infusion clinic.
Teens and pre-teens
Alicia and Kyla both see pre-teens and teens. Kyla works at a lower rate, with Alicia supervising the clinical work behind her.
Who You'd Work With
Two therapists, two rates, one standard.
Which one you see depends on what you are bringing and what you can spend.

Licensed clinical social worker, EMDR trained, certified ketamine-assisted psychotherapy provider, certified tantra practitioner, and kundalini dance teacher.

Kyla Gordon

Arizona native, psychology degree from ASU, finishing her Master of Social Work at Capella. Several years with children and adults in substance use and crisis response settings.

Why we are out-of-network
Insurance requires a billable mental health diagnosis in your permanent record before it will pay for a single session, and then it decides how many sessions the diagnosis is worth. Plenty of the work people bring here does not fit that box. Grief, a marriage in trouble, a parent running on empty, someone who wants to go deeper than symptom management.
Staying out-of-network means no diagnosis gets attached to you for billing reasons, and nobody outside the room sets the pace. We provide superbills you can submit to a PPO for possible reimbursement, and HSA and FSA cards work here.
Rates run $85 to $185 depending on who you see. Seeing Kyla is the lower end and it is a real way to access the work with a licensed therapist supervising it.
One conversation tells you most of what you need to know.
A free consultation, no intake paperwork, no commitment. You describe what is going on, we tell you how we work, and you decide.
