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.
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.
Welcome! I am Vivian McCown, a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor and the owner of Inspire Therapy. I work with teens (16+), adults, and couples navigating anxiety, stress, burnout, relationships, life transitions, self-esteem, trauma experiences, grief, and identity exploration. I also enjoy supporting LGBTQ+ clients, millennials, and those who feel overwhelmed or stuck in patterns they're ready to change.
Hello, my name is Tracey! I have worked in the field of social work for over 10 years and in the field as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) for 5 years. I provide compassionate and effective therapy to help clients meet their goals. I specialize in working with moms in all stages of motherhood struggling with anxiety and depression. I am committed to providing you with the tools you need to build resilience, enhance self-awareness, and develop effective coping strategies.
I understand how overwhelming anxiety, depression, or chronic pain can feel, especially when you're caught in a cycle of fear and avoidance. It’s tough, but you don’t have to go through it alone. We can work through your struggles, find understanding, and create a path toward healing. If you're ready for change, I’m here to listen and support you.
Every person experiences seasons of life that can feel overwhelming. Whether you're facing anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, substance use, grief, or major life transitions, my goal is to provide a safe, collaborative, and evidence-based therapeutic experience where meaningful, lasting change can occur.
For nearly two decades, I have had the privilege of serving individuals, couples, and families throughout Nevada as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. In addition to direct clinical practice, I have served as a Clinical Director, executive leader, clinical supervisor, consultant, educator, and program developer, helping develop innovative behavioral healthcare programs and clinical services across Nevada. These diverse experiences have allowed me to work with individuals from virtually every walk of life while treating a broad range of complex behavioral health concerns.
My approach is individualized, practical, and grounded in research-supported treatment. I integrate evidence-based therapies, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing, trauma-informed care, and person-centered therapy to develop treatment plans tailored to each client's unique strengths, needs, and goals.
I believe people are far more than the challenges that bring them to therapy. My commitment is to provide compassionate, clinically excellent care while helping clients build resilience, strengthen relationships, overcome obstacles, and create healthier, more meaningful lives.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Anxiety Therapist in Reno, NV
Searching for therapists in Reno starts with knowing what kind of support you want. Reno counselors, psychologists, and therapists may focus on concerns such as anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, or life transitions. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties, training, and approach match what you want to address. Some profiles may mention cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, family therapy, or other approaches that can help you understand how each therapist works.
Reno has a mix of in-person and virtual therapy options, which can help you find care that fits your schedule and location. You may prefer an office near Downtown, Midtown, Southwest Reno, or another part of the city, or you may choose virtual sessions for added flexibility. Beyond specialty, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading bios before booking can show you how a therapist describes their style, session structure, and experience with concerns like yours.
Therapy in Reno can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway makes it easier to find Reno therapy options by letting you search therapists who accept insurance, review estimated costs after entering your plan details, and book directly when you’re ready.
If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
