About June
June OConnor is a licensed clinician with over 25 years of practice experience. She draws on life experience and long-term clinical work to listen closely and guide people through hard moments. June aims to be practical, direct, and nonjudgmental while helping people build new habits that fit their goals.
She understands how poor self-esteem, big life changes, grief, anxiety, and substance struggles feel because she has lived through difficult times herself. That perspective shapes how she talks with people in session - straightforward, compassionate, and with occasional challenge when it will help. June says she works hard for the people she sees.
June uses a mix of approaches chosen to match each person’s comfort. She leans on client-centered methods to follow what matters to the person in front of her. She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Other tools she may draw on include emotionally-focused work, EMDR, and mindfulness practices when appropriate.
Clients can expect practical skill-building as well as space to tell their story. June views difficult behaviors as attempts to meet needs and focuses on teaching alternative actions that meet those needs more effectively. She may offer gentle challenge along the way to help people try different responses.
June holds LCPC and LPC credentials and practices across Arizona. Sessions are offered in English. She notes that therapy can feel uncomfortable at first and encourages people to ask questions as they begin.
How June’s Methods Translate to Online Work
June often uses client-centered methods that focus on what matters most to the person. That approach means the therapist listens first, follows the client’s lead, and adjusts interventions to match comfort and pace. It helps with worries, life transitions, and low self-esteem.She also employs cognitive behavioral techniques to spot patterns of thinking and behavior that keep problems going. CBT involves learning practical skills and doing small experiments between sessions to test new ways of acting. This approach can help with anxiety, depression, sleep issues, and stress management.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. June will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and suggest methods that fit. Together they decide what to try and adjust the plan based on how it feels and what’s helpful.
