Aline Mays

Hello, my name is Aline. I have over 28 years of experience as a professional counselor. I have worked with individuals, families, and couples from all walks of life, helping them develop skills to regain their power and overcome emotional challenges caused by life's traumatic events. I received my M.A. master's degree in Counseling Psychology, Marriage, and Family Therapy from National University in Fresno, California, in 2005. I received my BA in Psychology from California State University, Fresno, in 1999.

My approach to therapy is direct, warm, and narrative. As a Marriage and Family Therapist and Certified Life Coach, I understand how our past Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) can significantly influence how we perceive the world and our relationships today. I am a trauma-informed therapist, capable of supporting individuals and couples as they navigate challenges related to mental health issues, relationships, changes in family structure, and their emotional stabilization and regulation issues.

I believe in empowering individuals to pursue positive change and authenticity by providing the appropriate support tools within a safe and non-judgmental environment. You will leave therapy equipped with tools you can use at home to help you become the person you aspire to be.
