Trauma and PTSD therapists & psychiatrists in Sparks, NV

Hi there, my name’s Ephraim and I'm a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with 20+ years of experience. My specialties consist of relationships, men’s issues, career counseling, and psychosomatic illnesses.

Whether it's individuals or couples, I'm happy to get to work with whomever comes my way. I do my best to facilitate a warm, trusting environment. I received my Bachelors degree in Child Psychology, working initially with the adolescent population before transitioning over to adults. I then received my Masters in Marriage and Family Therapy. Looking forward to meeting with you soon!

People seek therapy because they instinctively know that by reaching out to make a connection, they can get a greater understanding and courage. I would like to assist you in the process of gaining better clarity in your life. Through this connection, we can discover a bridge that leads to your inner power and confidence. Working as a Critical Incident Stress Debriefing Counselor, I use several tools, including Mindfulness Techniques, Solution Focused Therapy, Functional Family Therapy, and practices from my book The "I AM" Solution. I want to empower you to find your potential and transformation. Peace and Blessings.

I am a compassionate and dedicated mental health professional with a strong passion for helping individuals navigate emotional challenges, life transitions, and personal growth. I hold a Master’s degree in General Family Therapy and a Master’s degree in Psychology specializing in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA). Since 2015, I have worked in the psychology and behavioral health field serving diverse populations across various clinical settings.

Throughout my professional experience, I have supported individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, mood disorders, stress, emotional dysregulation, behavioral challenges, self-esteem difficulties, relationship concerns, grief, and life transitions. I have experience working with adolescents, adults, families, and individuals from diverse cultural and personal backgrounds. My goal is to create a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered throughout their healing journey.

I value authenticity, empathy, and meaningful human connection in therapy. I believe healing begins when individuals feel emotionally safe and supported while learning practical tools to improve emotional wellness and daily functioning. Outside of my professional work, I appreciate creativity, mindfulness, personal growth, and the importance of maintaining balance and self-care in everyday life.

I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Temple University and my Master of Social Work from Indiana University. With over 10 years of experience, I support individuals in managing anxiety, navigating depression, and healing from past trauma.

My approach blends evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and mindfulness with a spiritually grounded perspective. While therapy is rooted in clinical skill, I also create space for deeper connection—often integrating spiritual awareness into the work for those who are open to it. I believe healing is not just mental, but also deeply internal and, at times, spiritual.
