Trauma and PTSD therapists & psychiatrists in Visalia, CA

I've been doing this work for 16 years, and the thing I hear most from new clients is some version of: "I wasn't sure therapy would work for me." I get it. Finding the right fit matters — and I think fit has a lot to do with feeling like your therapist actually understands where you're coming from. I offer therapy in both English and Spanish, and I bring a genuinely culturally informed perspective to the work. I see adults navigating anxiety, trauma, grief, depression, family conflict, ADHD, identity questions, and relationship stress — across communities that are often underrepresented in mental health care. I'm direct when that's useful, patient when it's needed, and warm throughout.

Hi, I am Beth, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in CA. Adoption and foster care require a different kind of heart and a specialized set of tools. With three decades of dedicated experience, I help families navigate the nuances of trauma and "blocked trust." My approach is deeply empathetic, rooted in the belief that healing happens through connection. I provide the seasoned perspective you need to understand your child’s needs—and your own—more deeply. You don't have to do this alone.

I believe in the power of transformation, resilience, and healing. Just as the butterfly symbolizes growth through change, my practice is dedicated to supporting individuals, families, couples, and groups as they navigate life’s challenges and emerge stronger, more whole, and emotionally empowered.

I provide compassionate, culturally attuned psychotherapy services rooted in depth psychology, trauma-informed care, and holistic practices. My services include individual therapy, family and couples counseling, group facilitation, and consulting to support wellness in schools, community organizations, and clinical settings.

Whether you're facing personal struggles, intergenerational wounds, or seeking support in parenting, identity, or relationships, you don’t have to heal alone here—your journey matters, and I’m honored to walk alongside you.

Chenda Dyck is a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. She's in the final stretch of her PhD in Marital and Family Therapy, and she finished her master's at Fresno State back in 2016.

Chenda was born in Ratanakiri, in Cambodia's northern highlands. Families there hold together through a lot, and she watched how that works long before she had any language for it. She arrived in the U.S. in 2003, sponsored by an adoptive American family. What she learned in those years is the thing she still builds her practice on — that one safe relationship can redirect an entire life.

Her work centers on Emotionally Focused Family Therapy (EFFT), grounded in systemic and attachment theory and carried by a social-justice lens. Diverse, multiracial, and immigrant families are where she does her best work — families managing cultural pressure and emotional strain at once. In session and in supervision, she holds to the same standards: respect for culture, honesty about feelings, and the relationship kept at the center.

When you’re carrying the weight of depression or the constant hum of anxiety, the last thing you need is a clinical lecture. You need a place where you can show up exactly as you are—without judgment or the pressure to perform. I believe the relationship between therapist and client is the heart of the work. Over my 23 years in practice, I’ve focused on creating a space that is first and foremost human, built on a foundation of genuine connection and trust.

You don't have to carry the weight of your past alone.

I'm Christina Rodriguez, LMFT, a Christian therapist who specializes in helping adults heal from trauma, anxiety, and the emotional wounds that continue to affect their relationships, self-worth, and daily life. I believe healing is possible when you have a safe place to process your story with compassion, evidence-based therapy, and if you desire a faith-centered approach rooted in biblical truth.

I’ve helped people work through trauma, burnout, ADHD, Bipolar mood concerns, Anxiety, Depression, OCD, and others, in ways that honor their pace and their story. Our work together is grounded in honesty, humor, and compassion.

As a therapist in Fresno and online in CA, I help people whose minds and bodies are tired of being on high alert. You might notice every possible threat around you, feel constantly on edge, or struggle to relax even in moments that should feel safe. You may carry guilt or shame from the ways you react when overwhelmed.

As therapy continues, you begin to notice small but real shifts. The mornings feel a bit lighter. You catch yourself laughing without effort. You start to sleep better. You find it easier to connect with family or friends, to be present, to breathe. These small moments build into something bigger

— a sense of belonging in your own life again.

Whatever you are struggling with, you don't have to work through it on your own. The answers are within reach and therapy can provide a meaningful way to heal and connect.

I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist providing online telehealth and outdoor therapy, including Walk and Talk therapy. I am also a Certified Clinical Trauma Specialist and a certified Advanced Grief Counseling Specialist.

I support adults and adolescents navigating:

• Complex, single-incident, and developmental trauma

• Anxiety, depression, stress management, and work-life balance

• Grief, loss, and life transitions

• Domestic violence and women’s issues

Life brings experiences that one may not want to navigate alone and therapy can provide a space for sharing and working through them. My name is Paola, and I work with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, and life changes that may feel difficult to navigate alone. My goal is to provide a safe and supportive space where you may process your thoughts and emotions, better understand your experiences, and work together to identify solutions.
