The struggle of being human is real and especially palpable these days.

I know that life can be hard and suffering is part of the human experience.

I will work hard to provide a safe and validating space for you and I also promise to challenge you to reach your goals in therapy.

Therapy is a very sacred space in which you are trusting another individual with your story and in order to heal, you need to feel safe.

Hi! I'm Kelly Miltenberger, a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor. I work towards recognizing your existing skills and strengths and helping you to expand those into stronger, more adaptable ones to help you achieve your goals. For over 10 years I have been working with children and adults from diverse populations and cultural backgrounds. My goal is to provide everyone with a safe, comfortable space to allow honest expression of your thoughts and feelings. There is no right or wrong when it comes to our emotions, all feelings are valid and important.

I help lawyers and other professionals overcome their most difficult and destructive emotional patterns: addiction, anxiety, trauma, OCD, and depression. Sometimes it feels like you can't slow down. You want to enjoy life without worrying about work, and set boundaries so you can actually enjoy time off. Maybe you look around and wonder how everyone else seems to do it all. You feel heavy, anxious, and exhausted.You need a better way to manage difficult emotions so you can feel like yourself again.

Welcome! My name is Yolanda Batres-Espinoza, and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I received my Master of Science in Marriage and Family Therapy at Fuller Theological Seminary with an emphasis in Medical Family Therapy. I developed my passion for psychotherapy at the age of eight when I first had a therapist of my own. From then on, I was determined to become a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and help others as I was helped during my youth. I am an LGBTQIA+ affirmative therapist and a member of the community.

Are you feeling disconnected, stressed, stuck, scared, or angry? Are you repeating relationships, patterns, or situations and wishing you could break the cycle? Maybe life feels more frustrating or stressful than usual. Sometimes we aren't sure what causes our distress, but we know we're not reaching our potential for health, happiness, or success. And even if we know what the issue is, change can feel impossible. That's where our team of qualified professionals can help. Our job isn't to judge you or your choices, it's to help you understand the root causes of your issues and work together to create a custom plan for change.

Let's go on an exploration that will lead to lasting and tangible positive change. It takes a lot of courage to do this, but it is often in the discomfort that we grow. I encourage you to call me for a free consultation and ask any questions you have about myself or therapy. I will want to know about your goals and what you are hoping for in a therapeutic relationship. I believe in a holistic and non-linear view of life that endorses compassion, curiosity, and also getting out of our comfort zones. Once there is trust between us, I will lovingly push you.

She has a Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology from California State University Bakersfield, a Master’s Degree in Counseling Psychology from California State University Bakersfield, and a Doctorate in Clinical Psychology from Alliant International University Fresno.

I provide neuropsychological evaluations (testing) to adults with cognitive concerns, such as difficulty with memory, attention, multitasking, "slowing down," or changes in language or personality. I investigate neurological and/or psychiatric factors that may contribute to someone's condition. These evaluations allow for more precise diagnoses and prognoses (what to expect in the future). I provide services in English or Persian (Farsi), and I am well-experienced in working with professional translators for assessment in other languages (for example, Spanish or Cantonese).

When we live a life of reflection, we open ourselves to the rich depths of life's possibilities. We move away from the needless suffering of unresolved pain. I help my clients examine the intricacies of their minds and relationships in a warm, supportive, nonjudgmental environment. I help them make sense of their lives and their histories to understand how they impact their current challenges. Together we build a refuge where strengths are discovered and life becomes more joyful. My training is psychodynamic/psychoanalytic, however, my style always depends on the needs of my clients and the relationship we create.

I help individuals and couples understand and overcome barriers that get in the way of living a meaningful and fulfilling life; this can include professional, emotional, or interpersonal challenges. My approach draws on narrative and cognitive based principles, that value the understanding of how our experiences, self-awareness, and relationships impact how we cope with life. I believe the process of therapy is one that encourages collaboration and curiosity, and in doing so creates a hospitable environment to explore a variety of life experiences and achieve a healthy life balance.

I use compassionate, directive and practical approaches to treat PTSD and the symptoms associated with trauma. My life experiences have given me unique insight into the impact and treatment of trauma.

Our therapists can help you reduce anxiety and depression. You've probably always wanted to be able to feel calm in the midst of difficult situations, maybe for your whole life. But instead, you're losing sleep, relationships feel fragile, and feelings like depression and anxiety dominate your day, making normal tasks seem impossible. You need things to be different.
