Hi! My name is Milton, and I am the owner and therapist of Access Nevada Therapy. I created Access Nevada Therapy because there was a time in my life where “Therapy” wasn’t an easily accessible option, nor was it a favorable option. I remember vividly struggling with the world around me, which consisted of, my job, relationship, kids and personal life. Now approximately 10 years later, and 2 degrees received, I have earned the opportunity to serve my community and provide therapy to everyday people like me who are struggling with everyday life stuff, like I struggled with 10 years ago.

Do these thoughts echo in your mind when nobody's around to hear? "Why do I feel so alone." "Am I failing as a parent? Does my child hate me?" "Am I a terrible person because of my thoughts and actions?" "Is this career really meant for me?" "Do I have the intelligence and charisma for that?" "Why do past events still have such a strong impact on me?"

In recent years there has been an increase in mental health referrals for young children (3-6 years of age). They are having difficulty in developing emotional and social skills which they need to succeed at home, day care and pre-kinder school. Parents' main complaints are that their child is having frequent "emotional meltdowns", "temper tantrums", "verbal and physical aggression", "defiance", "shutting down", "clinging", "school refusal", and "stop talking". The child has reached an extreme level of emotional distress for him/herself and for others around them. I also provide therapy for adults.

My primary therapeutic approach and tools comes from Mindfulness, Somatic Awareness, CBT and Internal Family Systems.
Are you feeling anxious or sad and not sure who to talk to? I understand how challenging it can be. In our sessions, we’ll start simply with a mindful check-in, grounding you amidst the waves of anxiety or weight of depression. Together, we’ll gently unravel both recent and deeper-rooted experiences that might be feeding these feelings. We’ll shine a light on any assumptions or stories you might be holding onto, addressing them with both curiosity and compassion. To offer you immediate relief and tools for resilience, I’ll guide you through specialized breathing exercises, somatic awareness techniques, and meditations.

Internal Family Systems (IFS) Therapists
What is Internal Family Systems therapy?
Internal Family Systems (IFS) is a type of talk therapy that focuses on sub-personalities, or “families,” within a person, which may be made up of wounded parts and unpleasant emotions like anger and shame. These sub-personalities can come into conflict with each other and with an individual’s core Self, leaving the person feeling detached from positive traits such as the “8 C’s” of confidence, calmness, creativity, clarity, curiosity, courage, compassion, and connectedness. By healing a patient’s wounded parts, a therapist aims to restore balance and bring on positive change.
How does Internal Family Systems therapy work?
An IFS therapist will work with a patient to identify their particular sub-personalities, recognize the emotions powering them, and release them. By doing so, the patient should become more able to address any underlying problems their sub-personalities may have been trying to protect them from. Ultimately, a patient discovers ways to manage internal and external conflicts on their own, through techniques such as relaxation exercises, journaling, and making charts depicting the relationships between their core Self and their distinct parts.
Does Internal Family Systems therapy work?
IFS therapy has been shown to help people address conditions such as depression, anxiety, panic, fears and phobias, trauma, and substance use disorders. Some research has also found that it can help individuals deal with symptoms of physical health conditions like rheumatoid arthritis, such as pain, everyday functioning, depressive feelings, and low self-compassion. There are some conditions for which IFS treatment, specifically discussions of one’s “parts,” may be less appropriate, such as schizophrenia or other states that involve psychosis or paranoia.
How long does Internal Family Systems therapy take?
As with most forms of talk therapy, there is no set duration or end point for IFS therapy. After becoming comfortable with a therapist and the core concepts of IFS, some patients quickly make progress. While experiences vary, most will find that it is a relatively longer-term therapy, involving months and sometimes years of sessions.
