As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I see the world through the lens of relationships. I treat adults dealing with anxiety, depression, relationships, perinatal mental health, childhood trauma, and religious wounds. I believe the work of therapy is in undoing aloneness. I became a therapist because I believe it’s in relationships we are injured and paradoxically, it must be through relationships that we heal.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Riverside

Searching for therapists in Riverside starts with knowing what kind of support you want. Therapists and Riverside counselors may work with concerns like anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, work stress, and life transitions. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties and approach match your needs. A profile may mention cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma-informed care, or experience with couples counseling in Riverside, which can help you decide who may be a strong fit.

Riverside offers local therapy options across neighborhoods like Downtown, Arlington, Magnolia Center, and surrounding areas, while virtual sessions can add more choice if commute time or scheduling matters. Some people prefer meeting in person, while others choose virtual appointments for flexibility. Beyond specialty, compare appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading therapist bios before booking can show how they describe their communication style, session structure, and experience with the concerns you want to address.

Therapy in Riverside can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care more affordable. Headway makes it easier to find therapists in Riverside, CA who are accepting new patients and offer clear cost estimates before you book. Nationally, Headway partners with a wide range of insurance plans, and you can confirm coverage for your specific plan before booking. You can browse therapists, review bios, compare in-person and virtual options, and book directly when you’re ready.

If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
