Arianna Killebrew

Arianna Killebrew

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 20 mi away • Reno, NV


Sometimes the hardest thing to lose isn't your way—it's your trust in yourself.

Maybe you're exhausted from overthinking every decision, carrying everyone else's expectations, or feeling like you should be able to handle everything on your own. Maybe life has knocked you around a bit, and now you're tired of feeling like you're just getting through the day instead of actually living it.

Therapy with me is a place to bring the messy, complicated, sometimes ridiculous parts of being human—the overthinking, the stress, the doubts, and the moments where you're just trying to figure out how to do this whole life thing. We'll have honest conversations, laugh when we can, and work together toward meaningful change.

I'm Arianna Killebrew, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) trained in EMDR and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). I don't believe therapy should be a one-size-fits-all process. People are too unique for that. We'll figure out what actually fits you, because you're a person—not a problem to solve.

My background includes work in domestic violence shelters, schools, outpatient mental health, and legal and child welfare systems. Across these settings, I've sat with people through some of life's hardest moments and learned that people are rarely "too much" or "too complicated"—they're often carrying more than anyone realizes.

I don't just sit back and listen. I pay attention to the little things—the things you brush off, the things you've normalized, and the moments where you stop trusting yourself.

Understanding yourself is important, but I don't want therapy to stop there. I want you to leave trusting yourself more—feeling more confident in your choices and your ability to handle whatever life throws your way.

You don't have to walk into therapy knowing what to say or having everything figured out. You just have to show up as you are. We'll take it from there.

If anxiety, stress, or the weight of past experiences has been running the show lately, you’ve found a warm and caring place to start. Over the past four years, I’ve had the privilege of helping adults work through anxiety, chronic stress, trauma, and PTSD, along with the unique challenges that so many people struggle with coming out of incarceration or battling addiction. Whatever brought you here, my hope is to help you feel calmer, steadier, and more like yourself again. Wherever you are in your journey, you don’t have to figure it out alone.

Hello, I’m Diana Tabares-Avila, a compassionate therapist dedicated to helping individuals feel supported, understood, and empowered through life’s challenges.

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 Carson City

Searching for therapists in Carson City starts with knowing what kind of support you want. You may be looking for care related to anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, or a major life transition. As you compare therapists, look for training and listed specialties that match your needs. A therapist’s bio can also show their approach to care, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma-informed care, or support for couples and families.

In a smaller city like Carson City, the number of nearby therapists may be more limited than in larger Nevada markets. Virtual appointments can expand your options while still keeping you connected with a therapist licensed in Nevada. As you narrow your search, consider appointment availability, whether a therapist is accepting new clients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking can help you understand how each therapist describes their style, session structure, and experience with concerns similar to yours.

Therapy in Carson City can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you find therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, shows estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book, and lets you choose between virtual and in-person options when available. You can browse therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
