At Thrive Therapy AZ, Grazi provides compassionate therapy for children, adolescents, and young adults navigating anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and life transitions, creating a supportive space where individuals and families can better understand their experiences and develop practical tools for growth and emotional well-being.

My Approach

Therapy with me is collaborative, strengths-based, and tailored to each individual.

I draw from evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), strengths-based therapy, and systems theory to help clients better understand their experiences and develop practical coping strategies.

I believe therapy works best when clients feel safe, respected, and actively involved in the process.

Core Values

Compassion - To feel and act on genuine concern for others, approaching each person with empathy and care

Authenticity - To act with genuineness and integrity, staying true to our values while honoring each client's unique journey

Mindfulness - To remain present and conscious in each moment, creating space for awareness and intentional healing

Flexibility - To adapt our approach to meet each client's evolving needs with openness and creativity

Inclusivity - To embrace diversity and create a foundation of equity, dignity, and respect for all individuals and families we serve

Welcome

Hi, I’m Grazi, a licensed clinical social worker with over 25 years of experience supporting adolescents, young adults, and families.

I work with teens and young adults who may be feeling overwhelmed, struggling with anxiety or depression, navigating relationship challenges, or going through difficult life transitions. Some of the people I work with reach out themselves, while others connect with me with the support of a parent who wants to help their child feel more confident and emotionally supported.

My goal is to create a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental space where we can explore what’s going on and develop practical tools for moving forward.

Who I Work With

I primarily support:

Adolescents navigating emotional and social challenges
Young adults managing stress, identity development, and life transitions
Families who want to better understand and support their child

Many people reach out when they notice they are feeling more withdrawn, overwhelmed, or unsure of themselves, and are looking for support and practical strategies to help them move forward.

Area of Focus

I work with individuals experiencing:

Anxiety and stress
Depression
Relationship and interpersonal challenges
Social skills difficulties
Self-esteem concerns
Grief and loss
Borderline Personality Disorder
Mental health challenges related to medical conditions

What to Expect

Starting therapy can feel like a big step, and it's normal to feel unsure about what the process will look like.

In our first session, we will spend time getting to know each other, talking about what brings you to therapy, and identifying goals for our work together. From there, we will begin developing strategies and skills that support growth and emotional well-being.
