LucasCylke, PhD

Licensed Clinical Psychologist

in Reno, NV

I try to view the majority of mental health issues through a holistic lens, taking into account the micro and macro level variables that impact one's mental health concerns (from diet, biology, and family system difficulties, to socioeconomic class and cultural and religious views).

I am skeptical of the biomedical model of mental health that often minimizes the role of environmental context while viewing symptoms as pathological things that need to be cured, rather than coping mechanisms that need to be understood.

I treat a wide variety of concerns including:


  • Trauma and PTSD
  • Relationship Issues
  • Coping Skills
  • Self Esteem


  • Suicidal Ideation
  • Existential / Spiritual / Philosophical Crises
  • Psychedelic Integration


I have

expertise

treating:


  • OCD
  • Anxiety
  • Intrusive thoughts


  • Depression
  • Interpersonal Concerns


I try to be flexible with my therapeutic approach and integrate a variety of evidence based theories that fit clients’ needs and personality styles (including cognitive behavioral, existential, integrative, attachment based, interpersonal). Though I integrate many approaches, my primary orientation and expertise is in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy.

Some clients need exploration and insight, some need skills to cope or effectively communicate, others just need a space to talk and process. Together we can come up with a treatment plan and focus that suits your needs.
