Biofeedback / Neurofeedback Therapists in Visalia, CA

If you are having some difficulties in your life or are struggling with sadness, stress or other psychological issues; I am confident that I can help and/or find you the assistance that you need.

I have worked with individuals and couples for over 10 years on everything from relationship challenges to working through personal crisis or unrealized goals. My coaching style utilizes mindfulness practices with tools for a deeper sense of self awareness and self care and increases a sense of resilience, patience, compassion and conscious intentional action rather than reaction and repeating unconscious patterns.

I offer Integral Recovery, revolutionary approach to recovery from alcoholism, addiction, and more. www.vitalpuma.com

I am a licensed clinical psychologist with over 25 years of experience and received my Ph.D. from University of Michigan in both the child and adult tracks. In my practice, I have a highly experienced team who provide integrated, multidisciplinary, and holistic care for children, families, adolescents, college students, and adults. We collaborate closely with you to address your unique and multiple needs. We offer therapy and counseling, assessments, neurofeedback, expressive arts therapy, behavioral interventions, and in-home and in-school support. Our mission is to provide effective and evidence based interventions to empower you to be the best person you can be.

My extensive training and years of experience are a strength. My PhD is in Clinical Health Psychology which means I am hospital trained and have specialized training in medical, sexual, and sport psychology as well as general Clinical Psychology. Further study led to an additional certification in Clinical Sexology. Regular attendance at national conventions helps me keep abreast of innovative treatments. My Biofeedback training informs my treatment of stress and anxiety. My background in law and business have been found helpful by many clients coping with crises of retirement and attempting to overcome financial anxiety.

Visalia is the county seat of Tulare County in California's Central Valley, a region that is both one of the world's most productive agricultural areas and one of California's most underserved communities for mental health care, with a majority Latino population whose access to Spanish-language therapy is severely limited relative to need. The agricultural economy creates specific mental health challenges around seasonal employment, farmworker labor conditions, heat-related stress, and the immigration anxieties common across the San Joaquin Valley. Kaweah Health provides the primary hospital-based behavioral health services, and a private therapy sector serves the more affluent parts of the population. Common therapy concerns include depression, anxiety, agricultural and economic stress, immigration and family separation trauma, and the significant barriers to care created by language access issues and a shortage of Spanish-speaking therapists in a region where the majority of residents speak Spanish at home.
