Therapists in Fresno, CA

My name is Dorothy Husen, and I am a Marriage and Family Therapist working and licensed in California, MFT 85611. I specialize in helping adults who have suffered from childhood trauma, abuse, and neglect, both physical and emotional. I teach my clients mindfulness breathing skills, self-regulation, and body resourcing skills in sessions so clients can learn how to lower their anxiety. Also, I use mind/body psychotherapy and teach Re-parenting skills. I have found that my style and approach are good for adults who have tried talk therapy with limited success and for adults who have difficulty talking about their past.

Life got you down? Are you feeling stuck, frustrated, or upset with your current experiences? Many of us are but it's often difficult for us to see it and, for some, even harder to admit it. When people experience any form of trauma, it is not uncommon for them to need help and I would love to be the person to help you get through your life challenges. My clients say my down-to-Earth, friendly, and calming disposition help them feel safe and comfortable so that they can bridge a path on their own away from the trauma.

My name is Carol Fox, LMFT and I have been in practice for many years, witnessing the changes in the need and acceptance of therapy as a tool to becoming a better person. Finding self has many paths, so many therapies have been created, but the focus is always the same: finding the self in the lives we live each and every day. My approach to therapy is to find the right path back to the self. Life presents many challenges, whether they be trauma or change of circumstances. These challenges are on a spectrum in everyone's life. People who are willing to work on themselves are most receptive to therapy, or the art of exploring.

If you are going through a difficult time or need support in working through life challenges, I welcome you into my practice to explore, repair and heal. Whether you are struggling with depression, anxiety, postpartum, parenting, relationships, family conflict, or racial trauma, no one flourishes in isolation. If you are ready to engage in a therapeutic experience to nurture, reflect and process opportunities of change and growth, I am here to help and support you.

I have really enjoyed working with individuals who are interested in exploring the deeper parts of themselves and those who are healing from difficult family relationships.

Life can be challenging and even overwhelming, whether it is due to grief and loss, relationship problems, a challenging child, anxiety or depression. We all need a little help once in a while. Sometimes it is difficult to see your options, but there are always options that are yours for the taking.

Some of my specialty areas are parenting, perinatal mood disorders, anxiety, bonding and attachment, and couples therapy.

My core philosophy on effective therapy is one that is relationship-driven and collaborative of my client’s views and narratives that guide their life stories. I believe that clients are the expert of their lives and that my role is to be a guide and witness to the stories that my clients bring into treatment. Every session is crucial to the overall health and well-being of my clients, and so I believe in creating a space that will allow for freedom, agency, and safety in expressing and fully showing up as one needs to.

I see therapy as a journey towards an authentic and meaningful life. There are many reasons to use therapy as a tool to move your life onto its best course. Often a crisis forces your hand and you know you can't take the next steps alone. Any major life change in family, relationships, work, or health could be the reason for seeking help. Therapy may also be the right choice when long-standing feelings of anxiety, unhappiness or shame have blocked your path. When our work together ends you will have confidence that your life is in healthy balance.

Hello! I am grateful you are spending time to find support and move towards change/ in what you want in life. I believe people have the ability to be attuned with themselves emotionally. It is when we are able to connect with ourselves deeply that we can lean in and pay attention to our body’s signals. Learning to be attuned with our body is not a natural process and in doing so we can learn to live a more attuned life. I am extremely passionate about helping individuals with finding ways to grow and coming alongside them to get there.
