Who I Help—And Why

Therapy That Gets to the Point

I’m Mitch Holly, a licensed therapist and Army veteran based in Chandler, Arizona. I know what it’s like to feel stuck—overwhelmed by conflict, anxiety, or just trying to keep it together while everything feels like too much. I work with people who are ready for real change—not just venting, but doing the work. My approach is grounded, direct, and tailored to your life—not a textbook.

Frequently Asked Questions

Questions?
Totally Normal

How do I know if therapy is right for me?
If you’re asking that question, therapy is probably a good idea. You don’t have to be in crisis to benefit—if something’s off, let’s talk.
Do you offer virtual sessions?
Yes! I see clients virtually anywhere in Arizona, and in-person at my Chandler office. Pajamas on your couch? Totally allowed.
How much does therapy cost?
  • Individual: $125
  • Couple Session: $200
  • Couples Assessment: $250
  • Family Therapy: $250
Do you accept insurance?
I don’t bill insurance directly, but I can provide a superbill—a receipt you can submit to your insurance provider for possible reimbursement. Every plan’s different, so it’s worth calling your provider to ask if they cover out-of-network therapy. If they do, great! If not, I’m still happy to work with you to find a payment option that fits.
Are you supervised?
Yes. I’m a Licensed Associate Counselor in Arizona and work under board-approved clinical supervision—transparency always.
