Yesenia Torres
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I specialize in working with individuals experiencing depressive symptoms, including persistent sadness, low energy, loss of interest in daily activities, self-critical thoughts, and difficulty with motivation or concentration. My clinical approach focuses on identifying the cognitive, emotional, and relational factors that contribute to and maintain depressive states.
Many clients I work with are navigating the impact of early attachment wounds, life transitions, chronic stress, or relational disruptions that have contributed to feelings of hopelessness or disconnection. In therapy, we work to increase self-awareness, challenge unhelpful thought patterns, and develop effective coping strategies to support emotional regulation, self-worth, and a renewed sense of purpose.

Cindy Lee Collins
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC
I specialize in working with adults experiencing depression, low mood, lack of motivation, and emotional numbness. Depression doesn’t always look like sadness. It can show up as feeling disconnected, exhausted, unmotivated, or stuck in patterns you can’t seem to shift, even when you understand them intellectually.
My approach goes beyond traditional talk therapy. I use EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and the Comprehensive Resource Model (CRM) to address the underlying causes of depression, including unresolved trauma, loss, and long-standing relational patterns. These therapies work at the level of the brain and nervous system to help create meaningful, lasting change rather than short-term relief.
I also integrate nervous system regulation and attachment-focused work, which can be especially helpful if you tend to withdraw, shut down emotionally, or feel disconnected from yourself or others. Therapy is paced carefully to support engagement without overwhelm, particularly when motivation and energy are low.
Many clients come in feeling stuck or discouraged after trying to “push through” depression on their own. Through this work, clients often experience increased energy, improved mood, and a stronger sense of connection to themselves and their lives.

Riverside is home to UC Riverside and is the economic and cultural hub of the Inland Empire — a vast suburban region east of Los Angeles where high housing costs, long commutes, and economic pressures create distinct mental health challenges for a predominantly working- and middle-class population. The city has a significant Latino and Black population, and bilingual and culturally affirming therapists serve important access roles in communities where language and cultural fit are barriers to mainstream mental health services. Riverside University Health System provides institutional mental health resources for one of California's largest and fastest-growing counties. UC Riverside's psychology program feeds practitioners into the local community, though the Inland Empire as a whole remains underserved relative to coastal California metros.
