Transpersonal Therapists in Mora, NM

Maybe you're facing a life transition, anxiety, stress, grief, depression, or caring for a loved one with dementia or illness. Or maybe you just want to be listened to and discover your deeper truths in this time of your life. I recognize, nurture and support your innate capacity and wisdom to heal.

The time is now. Today is the day to remember that it's just one moment at a time, one breath at a time. Taking a moment to reconnect with the feeling centers inside in a safe and calm way. Through talk therapy and non-judgmental creative exploration with color, texture, earth based materials, 2-D/3-D elements,etc., we can work on processing, communication and strengthening your personal tools for everyday living. I also have over 20 years of experience with women’s counseling, prenatal/postnatal counseling, birth coaching, nutritional counseling, and multicultural & diversity counseling.

By fostering deep and genuine connections with my clients, I help them develop deeper and more genuine connections with themselves. By clarifying what’s true for you—your needs, desires, conflicts, and dreams—the next step for you to take becomes clearer and less effortful. Together, we will resolve the stressors, conflicts, and adversities that weigh you down in order to find your flow—a way of being that’s more natural, enjoyable, and true to you. No matter how alone you’re feeling, how daunting the challenges you're facing, or how long a particular issue has been draining you, we’ll face it head on and find our way through.
