Saguaro Behavioral Health

Saguaro Behavioral Health was created with the client in mind. The co-founders wanted to offer mental health services for clients in a safe and loving environment with values, ethics, and morals. Lead therapist Marnie Zang Katularu, LPC-S, NCC, MS is a cognitive-behavioral therapist that lives by the quote above and believes in empowering her clients to imagine and achieve their true potential. Marnie is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC-S) & a National Certified Counselor (NCC). When Marnie is not working she enjoys spending time with her husband Nir who she refers to often as her “best friend in the whole world”. Marnie and Nir spend most weekends at the mountain home in Flagstaff, Arizona with their three dogs and two cats. Marnie is a HUGE animal lover and most days you will find her running groups or seeing clients with her French bulldog Coco, who has also been trained as a service dog. Marnie has three adult children and a grandbaby on the way! Marnie is also in recovery and believes there is a big difference between being sober and living a blessed life of recovery. Saguaro Behavioral Health offers individual, family, and couples counseling as well as therapeutic groups. Thank you for taking the time to read more about what we have to offer. It’s also important to acknowledge that you are taking a step in the right direction to regain control of areas of your life that need work! People who experience drug rehab may have conflicting emotions after they “graduate.” They may be enthusiastic to continue living without substances, but the latter part of recovery can also be a source of anxiety and stress. There could be a relapse and other concerns about staying sober if the same daily activities, pre-rehab, resume. Don’t… Alcohol is probably one of the easiest substances to get hold of and abuse. Because alcohol is found in wine, beer, and spirits, it is an easy drug to abuse since it can simply be drunk. While a bottle of beer or a glass of wine may not hurt anyone, it starts to become alarming… My father taught me that “perception is reality”. Growing up, I didn’t really understand how much this statement would actually impact my life and the work I do. For many years my perception of myself and how others viewed me was skewed. I believed I wasn’t pretty enough, smart enough, thin enough, the list goes…

Marnie was wonderful to work with and helped identify deep rooted issues. Her passion to help others and see them succeed is unmatched. I am grateful to have met her and will never forget our time discovering the real me.

Marnie was such a gift to my life. I am beyond grateful for her expertise. She helped guide me through my recovery and mend my relationship with my family. Marnie completely changed my view on therapy. I now have the skills to stay sober and live a purposeful life, to have healthy meaningful relationships, and work through my trauma. Today I am healthy, sober, grateful, and love life.

I could write a novel about how Marnie changed my life but for now just know if you are struggling this is where you need to be. Marine is a passionate and empathetic therapist yet her tough love and expertise (especially in addiction) is what got the job done for me. My family will be forever grateful for the knowledge we have gained and the reconciliation she has made possible in our lives.
