Dr. Mechelle Jungsten

Hello, my name is Dr. Mechelle Jungsten; thank you for reading my profile. I have been working in the mental health field for many years. I have a Masters degree in Counseling Psychology and a Doctorate in Behavioral Health from Arizona State University. I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and I also hold a certification as a Health and Wellness Coach. It is my belief we can always learn from each other. You have an untapped amount of strength and wisdom. It is my job to help you uncover your potential so you can begin to walk in your truth. Only then will you truly be able to become your best self. We all have a vision of who we want to be. We get stuck in faulty thinking patterns that lead us to being emotionally unbalanced and this leads to depression, anxiety and sabotaging behaviors such as overeating, substance abuse and other disruptive behaviors. I am here to tell you there is hope in getting unstuck with these unhealthy patterns.

My unique style of practice is made up of cognitive behavioral interventions that focus on the solution rather than the problem, and get you to recognize negative thinking that influences your behavior. My vast experience and education has enabled me to combine interventions that will give you that relief that you have been longing to experience. I know when we feel hopeless, everything appears dark. We begin to believe this is our “fate” in life; this is a lie that we tell ourselves. At this point, we no longer have perspective and we need to reach out and ask for help. Take the first step and allow me to be that pillar of support toward your healing. You don’t have to feel alone anymore. I look forward to partnering up with you for a better life. All the best; Dr. J
