June OConnor

June OConnor, LCPC, LPC, brings more than 25 years of clinical experience and a lifetime of personal insight to her practice. She began counseling after overcoming her own struggles and returning to school later in life. Her years in the field have shaped a calm, nonjudgmental approach and a willingness to challenge clients safely when needed.

June prefers straightforward, practical work in sessions. She listens first and then offers tools learned over decades of practice. She often frames behaviors as attempts to meet a positive need and helps people find new actions that achieve the same goal more effectively.

Her background includes long-term work with stress, anxiety, grief, self-esteem struggles, depression, life transitions, and addictive behaviors. She also addresses relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, sleep problems, anger, career issues, bipolar disorder, and ADHD. Additional focuses include adoption and foster care, abandonment, caregiver stress, body image, and family of origin issues.

June blends several therapeutic styles to fit each person’s comfort. She draws on client-centered techniques to build trust, cognitive behavioral strategies to change unhelpful thinking and behavior, mindfulness practices to increase present-moment awareness, emotionally-focused ideas for relationship and intimacy work, and EMDR for processing traumatic memories when appropriate.

She practices primarily in Arizona outside of seasonal arrangements and holds licensure as an LCPC and an LPC. Sessions are conducted in English. Prospective clients should confirm current session options and scheduling details when they start the intake process.

How June’s Approaches Translate to Online Work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on building a trusting relationship by listening and responding to what matters most to the person in front of her. This approach helps when someone needs a steady, accepting space to talk through hard feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the connection between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches straightforward skills to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and change unhelpful patterns. Emotionally-Focused Therapy centers on understanding emotions in relationships and improving connection and communication between partners or in close relationships.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. June talks with each person about their goals and comfort level, then suggests methods that fit those needs. She adjusts pacing and techniques based on feedback so therapy stays practical and relevant.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, shorten travel time, and allow for flexible scheduling around work or caregiving. Some formats also let people use less bandwidth or choose shorter check-ins on tight days. Ask about the available session types when you schedule so you can pick what best fits your routine.
