When I started to write something (I won't call it a review) for Josefa, I wasn't ready. I wanted what I wrote to mean something and to reflect how I feel about the affect she's had on my life. So, I'll take a shot now, but I'm still not sure I can do her justice. Josefa is a truly gifted person. She not only had an almost immediate understanding of the person I was, but also a tremendous insight into 'why I was' and how I could be the person I wanted to be. It's interesting because I had visited a counselor on and off over many years, whom I thought was good. However, in just two coaching sessions with Josefa, I discovered things about myself that I had neither thought of nor discussed, previously. Over the course of working with Josefa for a few months, she helped me to better understand myself, which led to quite a change in the way I feel about myself and how I interact with the world around me. From session to session, she always was on top of what we had previously discussed and was familiar with issues that were currently affecting my life. And, she was always on point with suggestions on how to best handle situations. Furthermore, the suggestions were ones that I could carry forward with me to future issues. Does everything work out for me now exactly like I want it to... of course not. But, I can certainly handle things much better now than I previously could. It may sound like I was a basket-case prior to working with Josefa. I don't think that's the 'case', but I certainly had issues. I imagine I still do. But, now I have much more of an inner calm about myself and confidence in myself that I never had previously. Thank you, Josefa. You have made a tremendous difference in my life.

I can't recommend Achieve Counseling & Wellness enough. I've referred family and friends because I…read morewant my loved ones to benefit the way I have. From the online scheduling to the friendly support staff, the whole experience feels welcoming. Working with Dr. Jennifer Burruel has been life-changing. She's approachable, real, and I've never felt judged. I used to think therapy was just talking to someone sympathetic, but she showed me it's so much more. She's helped me heal and learn tools that have made a difference in my career, my relationships, and how I feel day to day. I feel more confident, more capable, and genuinely at peace. If you're looking for a therapist who's highly skilled, truly cares, genuinely herself, and who will respectfully and supportively encourage you to grow, Dr. Burruel is it. I should also mention that those I've referred to the practice have reported positive experiences working with Emily and Maritza as well.

I've been working with Dr. Jennifer Burruel for about a year and to say she's changed my life is an…read moreunderstatement. I've been working with various therapists for the last 3+ years and while I've had several really great ones - Dr. Burruel's expertise, honesty, and genuine compassion is unmatched. I originally started therapy because I had no one else to talk to about deep or important things, but have stayed over the years for much more. In the last year I've been able to talk through major career changes and plans, relationship struggles, mindset changes, healthier and happier life choices, and honestly sometimes just to vent and talk to a highly educated person who is an excellent listener. I've never felt judged, uncomfortable, or pushed in any direction. Lastly, another very important variable for me is the quality of the admin work - or the people/team responsible for billing, questions, and general communication between sessions. Golda and the team at Achieve Counseling and Wellness are the gold standard! Golda has always been very helpful, responsive, and has done everything for me from rescheduling, fighting billing with insurance companies, and answering any questions I have. I've left a lot of great providers because of the incompetency of the support staff - that is certainly not the case here. If you're new to therapy, I can't think of a more safe and welcoming place to start. If you're not new, stop wasting your time and switch to the hardest working, most thoughtful, and well organized professional in the state of AZ!

Saved our marriage! Michelle is incredible. My spouse and I…read morewere at a complete breaking point. We had tried traditional 50-minute weekly couples therapy in the past, but it felt like we spent the first 20 minutes getting caught up and the last 10 wrapping up, without ever getting to the root of our issues. We needed real help, fast. We found Michelle Shahbazyan and booked an intensive couples coaching session (her extended deep-dive session). It was hands down the best investment we have ever made in our relationship. I had seen her for some personal work many years ago and was so glad to have connected with her again for this new issue. Instead of just sitting back and taking notes, Michelle is direct, empathetic, and extremely solution-focused. Having that uninterrupted block of time during the intensive allowed us to finally tear down the communication walls, stop the endless cycle of arguing, and figure out what was actually going wrong in our marriage. If you are searching for a marriage coach or relationship counselor who actually gives you real-life, actionable tools rather than just generic advice, call Michelle. She completely shifted our perspective and gave us a clear path forward. We left our session feeling lighter, reconnected, and hopeful for the first time in years. Highly recommend her to any couple needing a true breakthrough!

I contacted Michelle and she said that my wife is very guarded about her issues and the likelihood is that she doesn't want to work on herself. Michelle was correct. In hindsight I regret we agreed to such a long initial session. I think we should have limited our initial session to an hour or two. It could have flushed out my wife's lack of willingness and commitment to counseling and saved us an enormous amount of money with no positive result.
