Clients often describe me as warm, approachable, and easy to talk to. I aim to create a supportive and engaging space where you feel safe to be emotionally open, while also bringing a sense of ease.
At the core of my style is curiosity. I’m drawn to the “why” - why we feel, think, and respond to life the way we do. I take a holistic and at times existential approach, exploring not just immediate challenges, but the deeper patterns, life transitions, and questions of meaning that shape your experience.
I draw from a wide range of personal and professional experiences, including working directly with and overseeing a large and diverse group of clients. This allows me to adapt different techniques and perspectives to support growth, insight, and lasting change. Throughout the process, I remain thoughtful, engaged, and focused on what will be most helpful for you.
I’m an EMDR-certified therapist with additional certification in perinatal mental health (PMH-C). I know that finding the right therapist is difficult. Especially when trauma and previous pain tells you you are alone, you are judged, and you are always unsafe. Though fear would like you to believe you are better off doing this on your own, you know it’s not true. To heal, we must feel seen and understood, with support and guidance. This is truly my passion and I love connecting with my clients and helping them meet their specific goals.
I have over ten years of working in mental health settings, including in leadership. I am confident and unafraid in walking through pain and unique “problems” with my clients. I have helped many find relief from childhood trauma, attachment wounds, anxiety, depressive symptoms, PTSD, relationship problems, and destructive ways of coping such as substance use.

I am a queer, first-generation Sri Lankan American. My clients often experience anxiety that interferes with their performance at work, school, sports, or within personal relationships. While they have self-awareness, they may struggle to find the right tools to step into empowerment. Through a collaborative and direct approach, we work together to address core challenges, leading to tangible and meaningful progress.
I’m a queer, multi-ethnic Mexican-Jewish woman who grew up involved in the child welfare system. My passion is helping others reconnect with their authentic selves, especially under the weight of cisheteropatriarchal oppression. I specialize in assisting adults navigate ADHD, C-PTSD, Anxiety, Depression, and relationships.
Navigating relationship challenges, family conflict, and major life transitions can leave you feeling stuck, disconnected, or unsure how to move forward. I support people who are working through unhealthy patterns, communication struggles, and changes that affect their sense of stability and connection. I believe healing begins in a space where you feel safe, heard, and validated as you reconnect with your strengths and needs
I’m a licensed clinical social worker who specializes in treating narcissistic abuse, postpartum challenges, and relationship issues. I’ve spent years helping clients rebuild their sense of self, strengthen boundaries, and recover from painful relational patterns. My style is direct, compassionate, and deeply trauma-informed. I believe in creating a safe, steady space where you can heal, grow, and feel truly supported.
There may be times when you wish you had someone who truly listens, deeply and without judgment. Let me be that person for you. I work with adults across California on anxiety, depression, trauma, grief and loss, family and relationship strain, stress, and the pressures that come with new motherhood. I also support women, transgender clients, and people navigating cultural and identity questions, in English or in Spanish. Whatever you are facing right now, I am here to help you move toward the next chapter of your life with clarity and confidence. Together, we will honor your unique story and set clear, achievable goals that actually feel within reach.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Fresno
Searching for therapists in Fresno starts with knowing what kind of support you want and which specialties match your needs. Therapists may support people living with anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, relationship challenges, grief, or major life changes. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties, approach, and experience align with what you want to address. Bios can also help you understand whether a therapist uses approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, acceptance and commitment therapy, or other forms of care.
Fresno offers a strong mix of local therapy options, but the right fit may depend on more than proximity. You may want an office near Downtown Fresno, the Tower District, Clovis, or a location that works with your commute. Virtual therapy can also expand your options if your schedule, transportation, or location makes in-person visits harder to fit in. When narrowing your search, consider appointment times, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, free phone consultation options, and how their profile describes session style.
Therapy in Fresno can be expensive without insurance, so finding a therapist who accepts your plan can make care more affordable. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before you book. Headway helps you compare therapists in Fresno who are accepting new patients, review detailed bios, check your insurance, see estimated costs upfront, and book directly when you’re ready.
