Trauma and PTSD therapists & psychiatrists in Reno, NV

If anxiety, stress, or the weight of past experiences has been running the show lately, you’ve found a warm and caring place to start. Over the past four years, I’ve had the privilege of helping adults work through anxiety, chronic stress, trauma, and PTSD, along with the unique challenges that so many people struggle with coming out of incarceration or battling addiction. Whatever brought you here, my hope is to help you feel calmer, steadier, and more like yourself again. Wherever you are in your journey, you don’t have to figure it out alone.

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, ADHD, and those who feel overwhelmed or stuck in patterns they're ready to change.

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.

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 life has knocked you around a bit, and now you're tired of feeling like you're just getting through the day instead of actually living it.

Therapy with me is a place to bring the messy, complicated, sometimes ridiculous parts of being human—the overthinking, the stress, the doubts, and the moments where you're just trying to figure out how to do this whole life thing. We'll have honest conversations, laugh when we can, 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 don't believe therapy should be a one-size-fits-all process. People are too unique for that. We'll figure out what actually fits you, because you're a person—not a problem to solve.

My background includes work in domestic violence shelters, schools, outpatient mental health, and legal and child welfare systems. Across these settings, I've sat with people through some of life's hardest moments and learned that people are rarely "too much" or "too complicated"—they're often carrying more than anyone realizes.

I don't just sit back and listen. I pay attention to the little things—the things you brush off, the things you've normalized, and the moments where you stop trusting yourself.

Understanding yourself is important, but I don't want therapy to stop there. I want you to leave trusting yourself more—feeling more confident in your choices and your ability to handle whatever life throws your way.

You don't have to walk into therapy knowing what to say or having everything figured out. You just have to show up as you are. We'll take it from there.

I am a Christian Licensed Clinical Social Worker. My faith in the Holy Trinity of The Father, The Son and The Holy Spirit greatly shape my life, and my work. I believe you have everything you need within you to achieve your goals and heal.
