My name is Yanira Uresti, and I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor and the founder of Tenacity Counseling Center. My journey into counseling was deeply personal — shaped by my own experiences navigating illness, grief, and healing. That path gave me not only insight, but also a deep calling to support others walking through their hardest seasons. I specialize in working with individuals, couples, and caregivers facing anxiety, chronic illness, cancer-related trauma, relationship strain, grief, and life transitions. Whether you're dealing with a recent diagnosis, the stress of caregiving, or trying to reconnect with your partner during a hard chapter, I offer a safe space to process, rebuild, and grow. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and trauma-informed. Together, we’ll work to understand what’s beneath the pain, build resilience, and restore connection — with yourself and with others. Healing is never easy, but you don’t have to do it alone. I’m here to walk with you — with honesty, care, and unwavering support.
