Family therapy and counseling in Reno, NV

People seek therapy because they instinctively know that by reaching out to make a connection, they can get a greater understanding and courage. I would like to assist you in the process of gaining better clarity in your life. Through this connection, we can discover a bridge that leads to your inner power and confidence. Working as a Critical Incident Stress Debriefing Counselor, I use several tools, including Mindfulness Techniques, Solution Focused Therapy, Functional Family Therapy, and practices from my book The "I AM" Solution. I want to empower you to find your potential and transformation. Peace and Blessings.

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 anxiety, past experiences, or difficult seasons have left you feeling disconnected from yourself and unsure of what comes next.

Therapy with me is a place to bring the messy, complicated parts of life, feel genuinely supported, and work toward finding your footing. We'll have honest conversations, laugh when we can, sit with the hard moments, 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 use an integrative approach because I don't believe one treatment works for everyone. People are too unique for that. Together, we'll figure out what fits you—not just what looks good on paper.

My background includes work in domestic violence shelters, schools, outpatient mental health, and legal and child welfare systems. Across these settings, I've worked alongside people navigating trauma, anxiety, relationship challenges, major life transitions, and experiences that left them feeling overwhelmed or disconnected from themselves.

I don't just sit back and listen. We'll make sense of what you're carrying, understand what's keeping you stuck, and build practical tools that fit your life—not someone else's. My goal isn't just to help you understand why you're hurting. It's to help you trust yourself more, respond differently when life gets hard, and create meaningful change that carries beyond our sessions.

You don't have to walk into therapy knowing what to say or having everything figured out. You just have to be willing to start somewhere. We'll figure out the rest together.
