About June

June OConnor brings a long history of clinical work and life experience to her practice, combining professional training with decades of personal insight.

Background and approach

With 25 years in the field and licensure as an LCPC and LPC, she draws on a breadth of therapeutic techniques while acknowledging the perspective that comes with age and hard-won growth.

June emphasizes practical skill-building and compassion, supporting people through common concerns such as stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, depression, addictions, trauma and abuse, and relationship or intimacy-related issues. Her style is collaborative and adaptable, meeting clients where they are and tailoring methods to individual comfort.

June blends client-centered listening with structured approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and options such as EMDR, EFT, and mindfulness practices when appropriate. She encourages learning new behaviors to meet underlying needs more effectively and is prepared to challenge clients gently when that supports progress.

Based in Arizona and licensed also in Montana, June offers a grounded, nonjudgmental presence for those navigating life transitions, career stress, parenting challenges, health-related concerns, and a wide range of emotional and behavioral issues.

Approaches That Translate Well to Online Therapy

June often integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and client-centered methods when working with clients online. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and practicing practical skills to reduce symptoms like anxiety or depression; it is goal-oriented and often includes homework to reinforce progress. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, validation, and a collaborative relationship so clients feel heard and supported while exploring their concerns. June also uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy when relationships or attachment issues are central, helping clients understand and shift emotional responses to improve connection and regulation.

Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. She works with each client to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and comfort level, adapting techniques over time as progress and preferences emerge. The therapist-patient relationship guides how and when different tools are introduced so treatment aligns with the individuals priorities.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, giving flexibility to fit varied schedules and communication styles. These options can make it easier to maintain regular sessions during life transitions, manage care from different locations within her licensed states, and practice skills between meetings in ways that suit each persons routine.
