Grief counselors and therapists in Reno, NV

Hi, I’m Devyn, a Licensed Professional Counselor in Nevada (CP5145-R) and Colorado (LPC.0017444). I hold a Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Nevada, Reno, and have been practicing since 2019. I specialize in working with children, families, and adults across the lifespan, with training in EMDR, Child-Centered Play Therapy, and Integrative Attachment Family Therapy. My approach is grounded in attachment theory, cognitive-behavioral strategies, and family systems work to support healing and personal growth.

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, 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.

I offer specialized treatment to address anxiety, depression, relationship challenges and insomnia. I have over 20 years experience in the field, and have been licensed since 2007 as a Marriage and Family Therapist. I completed a Master's Degree in counseling with a focus in Marriage, Family and Child therapy. I have a certification to treat insomnia with CBT-I, and have completed level 1 certification in the Gottman method.

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.

I believe healing begins in a space where you feel safe and understood. My approach is compassionate and grounded in strong clinical experience, guided by genuine care and respect for each person’s story. I bring a calm, steady presence to every session and see therapy as a collaborative process, one that helps you build awareness, strength, and lasting change.

With 17 years of experience as a Marriage and Family Therapist, I work with individuals, couples, children, adolescents and children to help navigate life's transitions, stressors, and relational challenges.

I'm Russ! As your therapist, it is my goal to see you become a better version of yourself. Asking for help is not easy for many, and you're to be commended for taking that first step. Life's challenges can be difficult to navigate, and everyone needs some help from time to time. I have seen a multitude of clients of all ages with diverse backgrounds. Being a good listener and having a non-judgmental approach are two of the things people ask for most in a therapist. With me, you will get both of those things! I am always present when my clients are experiencing stressful life challenges. My areas of expertise include Depression, Anxiety, Men's Health, Trauma, PTSD, Grief Issues, and Couples Therapy, I am specifically very experienced and specialized with Anxiety Disorders. I use a Cognitive Behavioral and Humanistic approach to help my clients bring out the best in themselves, but am also able to help those who may need to be in therapy more short-term with Solution-Focused therapeutic approaches. I like to use humor, challenging questions, and a direct approach. I think that growth and progress come from addressing the difficult issues head-on, but we can also make therapy a little more fun along the way.
