Psychodrama Therapists in Fontana, CA

✨ By virtue of holding space for you to make meaning out of your experiences, intersections of identity, and personal and ancestral past, I specialize in providing Culturally Conscious, Liberation-Oriented, Neuro-affirming, Trauma-Informed, Nervous System-Centered, and social justice-aligned offerings of healing that align with your desire to unify mind, body, and spirit, healing both present and intergenerational wounds, and connecting with self, others, and surroundings.

Many people come to therapy feeling misunderstood or “othered,” even in spaces meant to support them. You may have tried therapy before and found yourself explaining your identity, culture, ambition, or creative life just to be understood. If you’ve struggled to trust that someone could truly “get it,” you’re not alone. I provide trauma-informed online therapy for founders, creatives, and high-performing professionals navigating burnout, anxiety, and chronic pressure.

Compassionate, non-judgmental therapy that works! Dr. Tickner has been helping people live the life they deserve and have the relationships they want for over 25 years. His approach brings together the best from the worlds of cognitive therapy, couples counseling, individual therapy, mindfulness/meditation, somatic psychology, trauma therapy, and neuroscience.

I am engaged and alert with my clients. I support your growth while Frustrating your defenses- I work to confront my clients in their blind spots, because (as a New Yorker) I understand that speaking from a place of love may not always mean people-pleasing. But with the warmth of my Californian identity, I work to be fluid and flexible, using somatic interventions to develop and cathart Embodied Trauma. Sometimes the history lives in the present.

Tried talk therapy and you're body's still left reactive? Tried somatic (bodywork) approaches and your mind is left confused? Why choose one? Sustained healing includes the mind and body so that your body can stop being in survival mode and your mind rewired for calm. My practice merges psychotherapy, hypnotherapy and bodywork because healing should treat the "whole" you not merely parts of you. In-office or Online services available.

Fontana is an Inland Empire city whose economy has shifted from its Kaiser Steel past to one of the country's largest concentrations of warehouse and logistics work, with a predominantly Latino population and many families stretched by long commutes and shift schedules. Mental health needs include work-related stress and injury recovery, economic pressure, and demand for Spanish-language care that consistently outpaces supply. Kaiser Permanente's large Fontana medical campus and Inland Empire community providers anchor local access.
