About Desiree
Desiree Cantorna-Ibarra is a Nevada licensed clinical professional counselor (LCPC) with 12 years of experience. She helps people who are stressed, anxious, grieving, or struggling with mood and motivation. She focuses on building confidence and stronger self esteem in practical ways. Desiree approaches each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion.
Her sessions are tailored to the individual. She adapts conversation and plans to what a person needs right now. That can mean focusing on everyday skills, changing unhelpful thinking, or practicing steadier emotional responses. She aims to make steps feel manageable rather than overwhelming.
Desiree uses several common therapeutic approaches to guide her work. Those include acceptance and commitment techniques, client-centered listening, cognitive behavioral tools, dialectical behavior strategies, and mindfulness practices. She draws from these to create a plan that fits a client's goals and life situation.
People often come for help with depression, bipolar mood issues, sleep and eating concerns, addiction, or relationship and family stresses. Desiree also works with a wide range of related problems such as caregiver strain, chronic illness, and communication struggles. She will invite discussion about what matters most and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Therapy with Desiree is collaborative. She encourages small, realistic changes and checks in about what is or isn’t working. Her aim is to support people as they build clearer choices, steadier routines, and greater confidence in daily life.
