Great to meet you!

My name is Ray Buchanan, LMFT, and I have been in the helping profession for over 25 years. I live in the Fresno, CA , area. I love helping others find purpose and strength in these difficult times.

My approach to therapy

I have been trained in various evidenced based treatments including Motivational Interviewing, ACT, TFCBT, and Managing and Adapting Practices (MAP). I have also received numerous trainings in the area of Christian Counseling. I like to integrate faith with psychological principles.

I like to utilize a strengths based approach and to assist people in better understanding themselves so they are equipped to make strong choices according to their values.

What you can expect from me

I work collaboratively with clients. I will make great efforts to establish a good connection, build trust, and make it safe for people to share freely. You will have a good sense after the first session if this is a good fit for you.
