Accepting Clients

Helping adults and teens overcome anxiety, stress, and life transitions with compassion and practical tools. Lisa R. Rusca, MA, LMFT, LPCC

Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist in Fresno, CA

About My Clients

My clients often come to therapy feeling stressed, anxious, burnt out, or uncertain about their next steps. They may be struggling with relationships, work pressures, family issues, or major life changes. They are seeking support, clarity, and practical tools to help them feel more confident, connected, and empowered.

My Background and Approach

With a compassionate and client-centered approach, I help individuals navigate anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, stress, grief, and life transitions. I believe therapy should be a supportive partnership where you feel understood, respected, and empowered to make meaningful changes in your life.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe every person deserves to feel heard, respected, and supported. Healing happens through connection, self-awareness, and self-compassion. I view therapy as a partnership where we work together to help you navigate challenges, discover your strengths, and create meaningful change.
