Trauma and PTSD therapists & psychiatrists in San Mateo, CA

I believe that every person is born with the capacity to live a full, meaningful, and joyful life. Through life's challenges, losses, relationships, and unexpected experiences, we can become disconnected from that sense of wholeness. My role is to provide a compassionate, supportive space where you can reconnect with yourself, better understand your experiences, and move toward healing. I view therapy as a collaborative process built on trust, respect, and genuine human connection.

As a member of the mental health profession, I am deeply humbled to be invited to share in the experiences of those who have struggled, it is a calling which I do not take lightly and strive to develop hope in all those I come in contact with. I have worked with families, children, adults and couples in community mental health, hospital and group private practice settings. I have experience working with those who struggle with complex trauma, mood disorders, transitions and interpersonal relationships.

I am a Psychologist who is passionate about helping women through life transitions and reproductive challenges, including pregnancy, motherhood, infertility, loss and trauma.

Hello, my name is Janet Reynoso, and I am a licensed therapist with extensive experience supporting individuals and families through a variety of life challenges. Since 2011, I have worked in social services, and I became a licensed clinician in 2017. My background includes working with survivors of domestic violence, sexual abuse, and human trafficking, as well as providing care in ADHD clinics, group homes, and addiction treatment facilities. I have experience with both children and adults, and my recent work has focused on adults in substance use disorder treatment and providing telehealth therapy for a diverse range of mental health needs.
