About US

Evette Mei, LCSW (She/Her/Hers)

My name is Evette and I am a multi-racial, queer, Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of Arizona and President of Desert Magnolia Therapeutic Services, LLC. I am passionate about supporting others as they realize their strengths and resiliency. I received my Master's degree in Social Work in 2015 at the University of Washington, one of the top programs in the World, with a focus on social justice. Since then I have been working as a Clinical Social Worker providing therapy to LGBTQ+ individuals and queer/non-monogamous couples faced with complex challenges. I also instruct at ASU's School of Social Work. 


I have been trained in several therapeutic modalities. Still, I prefer to take an eclectic approach utilizing components of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Gottman Method for Couples, and Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) for trauma.
