Therapists in Fresno, CA

People are the greatest asset to life. Here is where my passion unfolds. We, as a people reflect upon life in many arenas. Those high on the list are love, happiness, health and wellness, mental health, trauma and stress. My continuing journey is to assist individuals, children, and families with my knowledge through education and training in sensitive areas such as these. The outcome is for these individuals is to reintegrate into society with a renewed sense of purpose toward their future, nurture family attachments and strengthen their support systems.

You shouldn’t have to go through difficult times alone which is why my goal is to help provide you with a therapeutic experience that you need and want. You deserve time each week to explore areas of your life in a safe space and environment. Whether you are struggling with issues of postpartum, life-changes, parenting, family, relationships, life milestones (college/career), divorce, co-parenting, grief/loss-I am here to support you on your journey to healing. I will be your ally while we explore these struggles with the goal being you finding or re-discovering the “YOU” you want, the “YOU” you need, and the “YOU” you deserve.

I have been in practice over 20 years and I enjoy working with families and particularly children that have suffered trauma or are struggling with issues from divorce, school issues, social issues and more. I also work with adults suffering from anxiety, depression due to issues like divorce, parenting, co-parenting, caretaking, etc.

My goal as a therapist is to create a safe, non-judgmental, and affirming space to explore life issues, help you process difficult past experiences, and to provide you with the support and guidance to help you to not just survive the day-to-day, but to heal and thrive. As a therapist, I utilize an integrative, eclectic approach based on each client’s needs. I have experience with Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Solution-focused techniques, humanistic approaches, and some somatic approaches.

The mental health journey is a difficult one, but not impossible or one you have to do alone. As a mental health clinician I'd like to be a stepping stone in your healing. Stepping stone because I'd like to help you on the journey, and provide tools for you to be self-sufficient. My approach to helping others is best summarized in the following quote; "The curious paradox is that when I accept myself just as I am , then I can change" by Carl Rogers . I work to help others truly, honestly and kindly see themselves. By doing so we then work to making the necessary and desired changes to live the life they hope for.

I want to start off by saying that you are so brave for coming here to look for a therapist. That's a big step! Now, the process of picking someone feels sort of strange, doesn't it? Your connection with a therapist is SUPER important. You either connect or you don't and it's not a bad thing if someone just isn't your vibe. I will tell you that kids and teenagers are my people. Much more than adults. I really, really enjoy working with the neurodiverse folks. I am excited to meet you and to hear your story. Your story matters and is important.

As we journey through life, we collect experiences. Some of the experiences we collect are negative and can affect how we travel on our journey to our goals. If you’ve ever found yourself: worrying, struggling with sadness, indecisive and unable to complete goals, finding it difficult to find purpose, feeling sadness that won’t ease up, having bodily issues and trouble sleeping, it would not be uncommon to need extra support to help you to climb over the hurdles of life and become the person you’ve always envisioned.

Are you feeling sad, anxious, stressed, or overwhelmed and unsure on how to navigate stressors in your life? Do you feel stuck in a cycle of unfulfilling relationships and self-destructive patterns? Do you feel lost because you are trying, but you are plagued with self doubt and crippled by fears? Whether you are looking for a therapist to help you through a difficult life transition or support with a family member/friends struggling with mental illness, I'm here to support you. My counseling approach is holistic, collaborative, and being culturally responsive using integrative mental health practices to empower personal growth.

As a Registered Associate Marriage and Family Therapist at Link Care Counseling Center, I specialize in working with individuals, children, couples, and families experiencing difficulty in adjusting to life changes and transitions, anxiety, depression, family conflict, race-related issues. I have completed additional training in trauma as it relates to migration, racial identity and sexual trauma, EFT (externship), and Gottman Couples Therapy. I strive to offer a safe, nonjudgmental environment where individuals and couples have space to explore and process the stressors within family, parenting, and trauma (past and present).

My clinical approach is aligned with "Radical Healing Theory," which encompasses a holistic approach to healing beyond physical health and addresses the underlying causes of suffering and inequality. It acknowledges the interconnectedness of various social, economic, political, and environmental systems and their impact on individual and collective well-being.

Welcome, I'm Teri. I understand that life has its ups and downs, and I am here to support you in your current season of life transitions and challenges. I have often found that experiences of past trauma has a significant impact on our current functioning. I help individuals that have experienced childhood trauma, but are determined to not allow the trauma they experienced in the past to have a negative impact on their life. My mission is to help you in your healing and to provide you with the guidance, tools, and support you need to not only survive, but to thrive during these transformative periods.

Feeling overwhelmed by life, anxiety, or relationship stress and looking for a safe space to explore and heal? Are you wanting to understand yourself more deeply and improve your relationships with those around you? If so, I’d love to partner with you to explore and make sense of your inner world. I specialize in supporting teens, young adults, and women as they navigate life’s challenges, including anxiety, low self-esteem, difficult relationship dynamics, and past relationship trauma. I also offer support for women dealing with postpartum struggles. Together, we will create a shared space for you to feel seen, known, and heard.

We all fall somewhere between where we want to be and the worst that we have been. Many times, in life we are just not happy with where we are at our present moment, and even though we may not be at our worst we still know things could be better. Together we can figure out where you would like to be and taking one step at a time on how to get there. Life is not a race; it is a journey. You deserve to invest in yourself!

The decision to participate in psychotherapy and the selection of a therapist can be difficult. Given the nature of the therapeutic process, it is imperative to work with a professional that you trust. In a safe and confidential environment, I collaborate with patients to decrease distress, examine concerns and negative thought patterns, and develop adaptive strategies to improve overall functioning. I have extensive experience treating female and male patients with long-standing concerns such as anxiety or depression. For others, they have situational difficulties resulting from events such as death or divorce.
