Hello my name is Felicia Murrell. I am a licensed marriage and family therapist in the state of California. I have worked in the mental health field for over 25 years. I obtained my bachelor's in human services from University of Phoenix in 2012 and a masters in Clinical Psychology from Antioch University in 2013. I have worked with various age groups, cultures, ethnicities and backgrounds, including LGBTQA, Native Americans, Autism and persons with disabilities. My specialties are depression, anxiety, trauma, PTSD, low self-esteem and addictions. I also have experience in African American and LGBTQIA. We all have defining moments in our lives. These moments can be both rewarding and difficult to maneuver. In difficult circumstances, we are compelled to dig deep and discover how to evolve to our best selves. Digging deep is not always easy and requires a lot of fortitude, inner strength, self-reflection, dedication and guidance. What makes these particular instances of self-exploration unique, is the ability to understand that sometimes you need help from a genuine nonjudgmental approachable professional other. That is what you will find in me. I don't use a cookie cutter tactics to work with clients because I'm not a cookie cutter therapist. What I mean by this is, I don't treat all of my clients in the same manner. I take my time to get to know my clients individually and work with my clients to learn their strengths, triggers and talents. You are the expert over your life, so I work with you to foster positive behaviors, heathy habits and positive mindsets that will assist in decreasing negative symptoms and increase the likelihood of living a more enriched and productive life. This is my passion, I hope to assist you in finding and or positively sustaining yours.

I enjoy working with adults who struggle with anger management. It's important to identify and understand the root cause of anger . Often, clients discover that hurt, shame, fear, embarrassment or loss are the triggers to unresolved anger. The good news is this can be solved, allowing clients to live more healthy, nurturing and fulfilled lives.
I use a strength based, skill driven, cognitive approach that is backed by research. Focus is given on identifying and eliminating thinking patterns that lead to unwanted aggressive behavior, homework assignments are provided to track daily thoughts and emotions and communication skills are taught to help you say what you mean - in a meaningful way.

I received my Bachelors of Arts in Communications and Master’s of Science in Marriage Family Child Therapy from California State University, Fresno. I am also a semester from graduating with my second Master’s of Science degree in Psychology. Throughout college, I was able to represent Fresno State University as a member of the collegiate rodeo team. This was extremely special to me, as the Central Valley has been my home since the day I was born.
I grew up in a small town called Lemoore, California on my family’s 100-acre cattle ranch, which was home to my family, my cousins, uncles, aunts, and grandmother and grandfather. I have been with my college sweetheart for six years now and have been married for a little over a year. With this said, I can relate to the complexity of family dynamics and interpersonal relationships, as well as the effect that they can have on our lives.
My passion lies in supporting individuals because I believe that each individual has their own integral part of the human experience. Each individual is unique, bringing their own set of morals, beliefs, triggers, traumas, and more. In my role as a therapist, my objective is to assist every individual in crafting the best possible life path for themselves.

I believe healing can be found in a variety of ways that are unique to the individual. As a trauma focused therapist, I value individual identities, qualities, and experiences that people possess as you are the expert of your experience.
By providing guidance, support, safety, and empowerment my main goals are to enhance the healing process and promote thriving. I want to create the safest space I can to support connection with your whole, authentic self. I believe humans can be extremely resilient and am in constant awe of their strength.

I’ve been licensed since March 2019, however I’ve been working in this field since 2013 (starting out in various schools: elementary, middle and high schools). I work with kids, teens and adults. I enjoy helping people with symptoms of anxiety, depression and who are going through a life transition. I try to teach tools and empower clients to make the changes they need in their lives to have a quality and meaningful relationship with themselves and others. Therapy is a process and a journey and committing to this is the biggest and most rewarding step any human can take. I will be there to support the client through the stages of change (the ups and downs) and witness their transformation. Thank you for trusting me to be part of this process.

My work focuses on targeting ineffective behaviors, habits, and beliefs around anxiety and depression. I believe in taking a collaborative approach to helping clients reach their goals.
