Female Therapists in Fresno, CA

We are all just doing the best that we can, but it is easy to feel depleted, alone, anxious, or depressed. Making the decision and commitment to better oneself is difficult, to say the least. I am here to help you achieve your goals. I aim to provide a safe and trusting environment for you to explore your emotions, experiences, relationships, and struggles. Therapy can be a great place to slow down, to think carefully about your life, and get support. I work collaboratively with my clients, and work to empower and nurture every individual’s strength. I believe education is a primary tool for change.

Hello, I'm Marcelene Camou (Marci), my license number is LPCC 5978. I involve my patients by listening to their concerns and allowing them to process and understand effective steps to improving their conditions and situations. Most of my clients are adolescents and adults who struggle with anxiety or depression. Many have family relationship challenges that they need to process or understand. I find Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to be most effective. I also believe Mindfulness techniques are productive and helpful when trying to navigate personal issues.

I am passionate about working with couples, children, teens, young adults, and adults, with a special interest in trauma, anxiety, BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ mental health. As a therapist, I value being genuine and transparent with my clients. I believe in using a mixture of honesty, acceptance, humor, and compassion to meet my clients where they are. My approach is directive and supportive, especially when working with couples. In my work with couples, I enjoy helping couples learn to improve their communication with each other, resolve conflict, improve intimacy, and heal emotional wounds which can create distance in the relationship.

We often find ourselves members of "clubs" we never signed up for. Unexpected "club" memberships might include living with anxiety, complex ptsd/ptsd, divorce, single parenting, the challenges of fostering or adopting, loss of a loved one, on and on. Isolation and shame are common while navigating these "club memberships." My clients are tired of being tired, ready to move from paralysis to growth, and desperate for hope and healing. They want to believe they are worthy of love, hold intrinsic value, and have something positive to bring to the world. They want positive life change and healthy relationships with self and others.

My name is Joy Burgner. I have been licensed in the state of California since 2011. My treatment modalities include person-centered therapy, solution-focused therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and dialectical behavioral therapy, the latter of which I have a specialization that I began working towards in 2012 through my extensive work with young people in the juvenile justice system. I am extremely open-minded, and there have been several experiences that have occurred in my life that have led me to adopt a completely non-judgmental stance when it comes to treating my clients.

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.

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.
