Welcome

My name is Dr. Cara Jean Emes and I am a licensed psychologist in private practice, providing counseling services in the Fresno/Clovis area of California. Included here is information about my perspective on therapy and my style as a therapist.

Sensitivity, compassion, and authentic feedback are the cornerstones of my interpersonal style as a therapist. I offer a nonjudgmental, supportive counseling environment that cultivates the opportunity for people to actively take steps that lead to healing and growth. I help people discover and develop the tools to bring about change for themselves. Therapy is not easy and it requires courage and hard work. Together, we can find a path to draw on your strengths for greater self-discovery, well-being, and fulfillment. I encourage people to treat themselves with empathy and kindness. I passionately believe in the power of therapy to serve as a catalyst for people to build insight, to build sense of self, and to empower themselves in their lives.

It takes courage to reach out and ask for support. Making the decision to initiate and engage in therapy is a brave step. If you would like to learn more about working with me or you would like to schedule an appointment for individual therapy, couples/marital therapy, family therapy, or group therapy, I can be reached by clicking the "Appointment Request/Contact Me" tab of this website.
