Welcome to Connections Counseling and Consulting, a psychological counseling clinic based in Buckeye, AZ. We specialize in tailoring our approach to the client's symptoms and what they want to achieve in therapy. Our provider, Carol Dickinson, is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with years of experience in client-led collaborative care.

Counseling and Consulting has now found its home in Beautiful Mind AZ. Although we are separate businesses, being in the same location allows us to offer a full range of services. Connections Counseling and Consulting provides counseling services, while Bertha Jones and Yilia Myhre at Beautiful Mind AZ provide comprehensive psychiatric evaluations, lab testing, autism and ADHD evaluations, and medication management. The best part of this partnership is the commitment to focusing on client care and building therapeutic relationships. Now, you can do both in one location, either in-person or virtually. Access to our virtual services is available state-wide.

Most clients come to see us because their symptoms are getting in the way of living the way they want or they struggle to feel calm, happy, or like themselves. Anxiety, depression, and other mental health struggles often have their roots in childhood attachment, neglect, and trauma. Sometimes, the building of life events and past trauma can mount into significant symptoms. We provide therapy for adults, adolescents, couples, and children ages 8 and up. We offer a variety of therapy options, including Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR) and Cognitive Processing Therapy for trauma. Attachment theory-based therapy is available to help you strengthen and build your relationships. We also provide Dialectical Behavior Therapy to build and strengthen coping skills for anxiety and depression and create a more flexible perspective, allowing clients to live with less tension and not feel they’re emotionally just scraping by.

Connections Counseling and Consulting of Buckeye, AZ, is dedicated to providing client-centered care with evidence-based treatments. The most important aspect of care is that you, the client, have full authority over your own care. While we will provide clinical recommendations for your care, you have the right and choice to decide how you'd like to accomplish your goals. Call (602) 679-4691 to set up your in-person or online consultation.
