Reclaim Your Calm,
Clarity, and Confidence
If stress, anxiety, sleepless nights, or overwhelming emotions are disrupting your life, you’re not alone. There is a path forward.
I’m Dr. Yelena Oren, a licensed psychologist serving adults in Reno, Nevada, with over 17 years of experience helping clients find relief from anxiety, stress, insomnia, trauma, chronic health conditions, and the emotional toll of life transitions. Together, we’ll uncover what fuels your distress and build practical, research-backed skills to help you feel more grounded, resilient, and fully yourself again, all at a pace that feels right for you.
Specialties
I work with adults who are struggling with anxiety, stress, burnout, insomnia, health-related challenges, and major life transitions, and who want to feel more grounded, resilient, and at peace.
How I Help
Think of our work as building a steadier foundation one small, sustainable shift at a time.
I believe healing happens when compassion, research, and collaboration come together. In our work, we’ll explore the patterns shaped by your history, health, relationships, and nervous system that contribute to your distress. You’ll learn practical tools that help you feel calmer, more in control, and more connected to yourself.
My approach is collaborative and individualized, always at a pace that feels approachable and sustainable, so you can create real, lasting change without feeling overwhelmed.
Therapies Used
These evidence-based therapies help you create meaningful and lasting change, not just short-term relief:
What to Expect
Therapy with me is steady, grounded, and collaborative. We begin by creating more breathing room in your daily life, a bit more space and clarity, so change can happen in a way that feels steady and sustainable.
You can expect:
- A calm, supportive space you can trust
- A pace that fits you
- Practical, personalized tools you can use daily
- Clear guidance and true collaboration
- Steady, sustainable change built over time
My goal is for therapy to feel like a place where your nervous system can settle, your thoughts can untangle, and you can reconnect with a version of yourself that feels steady, capable, and whole. Relief often begins with small, steady shifts that gradually build into meaningful, lasting change.
Therapy rooted in science, compassion, and sustainable change
