Female Therapists in Fresno, CA

As a Registered Associate Marriage and Family Therapist, I enjoy working with families, children, adolescents and adults. I hope to be a guiding voice for those who are brave enough to reach out for help and willing to work towards attaining their goals as well as those who are struggling and need guidance toward the light out of the darkness. My approach to therapy involves using my own life experiences and curiosity to empathize and validate my client(s). I walk alongside you, help you process, and assist you in learning the tools and skills you need to attain your treatment goals.

It can be challenging to process painful memories/emotions in therapy. I aim to create a safe space for everyone to feel comfortable being themselves. I have years of experience working with children, adolescents, and adults in different settings like schools, community clinics, hospitals, etc. I seek to reduce the stigma placed on mental health, the geek/nerd community, ethnic minorities, and everyone who is often viewed as ‘other.’

Hello, my name is Desirae Spignor. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. My therapeutic approach is eclectic, integrating my education and lived experience into my practice. In my experience trauma (historical, environmental, interpersonal, etc.) has been the root cause of most behavioral health and even some medical issues. If we work on ways to alleviate the impacts of trauma(s) on our lives it'll directly impact our overall wellness. This is why I've spent my time as a Behavioral Health Specialist focused on learning/unlearning about trauma and how impacts us.

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.

Taking the first step to begin therapy can be overwhelming and anxiety inducing. We all have times when we need support and reaching out is the beginning of healing. My passion for helping others comes from the healing work of my own trauma and experiences with PTSD. It has become my goal and purpose to support others in living a happy, full, productive, and healed life. As a trauma-informed therapist, I integrate somatic approaches to support self-empathy and self-acceptance. In addition, I utilize meditation and breathwork to help clients stay centered and mindful of environmental stressors.

Finding a therapist that you connect with is so important and personal; so much so that our relationship is the foundation for success in treatment. Helping people has always been my passion and I believe people have the internal tools necessary for positive change. I have worked with many different people throughout the years. These people have sought out therapy for many reasons. Life happens and challenges come up. Maybe it's older issues from childhood that have an impact now. Maybe it's brand new grieving the loss of a relationship. Maybe there is a feeling of being stuck.

Life can be wonderful. It can also be stressful and difficult. This may be due to a recent change, buildup of burnout or a traumatic experience that happened at any time in your life. I am here to help you navigate through that because everyone needs someone, sometimes. I will be a source of support and encouragement for you while we will explore what you want, identify obstacles, and learn skills. I use a creative approach throughout the process to encourage and empower you as an active participant in your own life.

I offer counseling services to individuals, children (5 and up), couples, and families. I use an evidence-based therapy style that incorporates a variety of beneficial tools that are tailored to each patient. Therapy assists individuals in learning how to identify and change destructive or disturbing thought patterns that have a negative influence on their behavior and emotions. I plan to support and guide you in achieving your goals through objectives created throughout your therapeutic process.

Many find hope, freedom and solutions while gaining understanding, confidence and peace.I believe all of us want to feel connected and loved to experience life to the fullest. I offer evening and weekend appointment to my clients,

Your emotions hit like a ton of bricks, and you just can't seem to shake it off. People often tell you're overreacting or too sensitive, which only makes you feel angrier. You're more sensitive to other people's vibes, and this lets you know what’s safe and what’s not. You tend to be a people pleaser because you want acceptance and fear rejection. There are more lows than highs in your intimate relationship because they just don’t seem to understand how you feel or what you want. You’ve been avoiding your emotions for so long and now it's hard to get in touch with them because all you feel is empty and numb. It feels like HELL.
