I have been in Nursing for over a decade and as a Board Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I understand that taking the first step to improve your mental health can feel challenging. But, it is one of the most meaningful acts of strength and courage.

My goal is to offer compassionate support and guidance as you navigate your journey. As a clinician and a mom, I understand the challenges from both a personal and professional perspective.

My specialty is helping individuals manage ADHD, Anxiety and Depression, to feel more empowered to move forward towards a more balanced, and fulfilling life.

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 25 mi away • Reno, NV


Therapy with me is a conversation, not a lecture. I’m direct, a little sarcastic, and I use humor to make the hard stuff easier to talk about. I believe in meeting you where you are—whether you’re navigating a major life transition, working through past trauma, or just trying to figure out why everything feels overwhelming. My goal is to create a space where you feel heard, supported, and maybe even laugh a little along the way.

Diana Tabares Avila

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 24 mi away • Reno, NV


Hello, I’m Diana Tabares-Avila, a compassionate therapist dedicated to helping individuals feel supported, understood, and empowered through life’s challenges. I earned my undergraduate education at University of Nevada, Reno and have experience working with children, adolescents, adults, and families from diverse backgrounds.

I believe healing happens in safe and trusting relationships. Clients often describe me as patient, caring, and easy to talk to. I take pride in creating a space where people feel seen, heard, and respected without judgment. Whether you are navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship stress, parenting concerns, or major life transitions, I aim to help you feel less alone and more confident in moving forward.

I also value ongoing growth as a clinician and continue expanding my knowledge so I can provide thoughtful, evidence-based care tailored to each client’s needs.
