I often help those working through partner betrayal, relational trauma, or severe mood and anxiety symptoms. Clients benefit from my psychodynamic approach which has been shown to be especially helpful for managing complex trauma and improving negative relationship patterns.

Clients tell me they appreciate my calm, regulating presence as well as my nonjudgemental stance.

If you're dealing with substance use, addiction, grief, trauma, anxiety, depression, or the kind of family stress that's hard to put into words — this is a good place to start. I work with adults, teens, and seniors across Nevada via virtual sessions, and I specialize in the situations where more than one thing is going on at once: the drinking and the grief underneath it, the family conflict rooted in cultural pressure, the anxiety that's been there so long it feels normal.
I'm a Black and Asian LCSW therapist with a background in crisis intervention and a genuine understanding of what it means to navigate identity, immigration, loss, and belonging. I work particularly well with clients from communities of color, immigrant families, and people who have tried to manage things on their own for too long. I accept Aetna, Cigna, UnitedHealthcare, Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield Nevada, and Oxford.

Two decades of clinical excellence.
Dr. Cindy Ruelas-Tafolla's path to becoming a clinician began at age 13 with the sudden loss of her father — an experience that planted the seed of her life's purpose: to be the kind of support she needed during her own darkest moments.
She earned her Bachelor of Arts in Law and Society from UC Santa Barbara, her Master of Social Work from the University of Southern California, and her Doctorate in Social Work (DSW) from USC.
Over two decades, she has served as a Medical Social Worker, Case Manager, and Behavioral Health Therapist — bringing doctoral-level depth, board-certified credentials, and genuine compassion to every client she works with.
J.M. Evosevich, PhD, LMFT, CADC, BCBA, RN is a licensed MFT specializing in individuals and couples.

He has successfully created individualized care for people with mental health and substance abuse disorders.
I am trained in some of the latest therapeutic techniques, including EMDR, DBT, and CBT. I don’t believe in a “one-size-fits-all” approach, but rather in meeting patients where they are. Together, we can work to fine-tune beliefs, regulate intense emotions, demonstrate compassion and self-regard, and quiet the inner critical voice often rooted in trauma.
Hi! I'm Graciela. I am a bilingual trauma-focused therapist with advanced ivy-league training, graduate level education, extensive clinical experience — and a whole lot of grit in my no-nonsense approach to therapy. You can expect me to be authentic and real, down to earth, wise, and validating as we work together to help you feel better and reach your treatment goals as soon as we can. My job is to put myself out of the job as soon as possible. See you at the top!
