EMDR Therapists in San Rafael, NM

I have spent most of my career working with survivors of violence, specifically sexual violence and family violence. I also have experience with those struggling with substance use, depression, anxiety and various other forms of trauma (genocide, cult/high demand religions.)

We do our best to create a welcoming and comfortable environment because sometimes the work can be difficult and uncomfortable. I invite all clients to bring anything that makes them more comfortable to do their work. If you’re not sure of what that is we can work together to find some of those comforts to help in your day to day life.

I enjoy assisting clients in finding meaning, joy and connection in their lives. All of us have had painful and traumatic experiences. Modern life is very stressful, and sometimes we need guidance and support in how to cope with difficult circumstances we might find ourselves facing. I can offer a variety of methods to let go of the past and find clarity and peace in the present, and hope for the future. Meditation, mindfulness, guided imagery, and EMDR are some of the techniques I utilize most. I look forward to meeting and working with you!

Accepting New Clients. Tenemos personal que habla espanol

I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor and Licensed Supervisor with over 10 years of experience. I'm certified in EMDR Therapy and specialize in trauma. I believe everyone can benefit from therapy and I am honored to work with individuals and couples experiencing a variety of life challenges. My passion is to help clients create renewed lives filled with authenticity, purpose, and meaning.

As a Clinical Social Worker with 30 years experience, my treatment philosophy is based in partnering with my clients in identifying and addressing their needs in ways that are relevant to them. I encourage a dialogue in which I meet the client wherever they might be emotionally and spiritually and then together, we explore the issues that led them to therapy in the first place. My job is to create a space in which my client feels safe to say things they may be afraid to say to others and to feel emotions that seem overwhelming elsewhere.

My counseling practice includes adults and adolescents. I am trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Non-violent Communication, Sand Tray Therapy and in EMDR. I believe that as people become more accepting of themselves, they are more capable of finding happiness and contentment in their lives. If counseling is successful, you should feel that you are able to face life's challenges in the future better than you could before and can face life's challenges in the future without my support or intervention.

I am honored to have the experience of holding people's most painful moments, helping them in processing and moving forward with courage and hope. I use an integrative, non-judgmental approach to my therapy that can include Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), a well researched modality used to process trauma. I also utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, mindfulness and communication training that will give you specific strategies to help you take what you learn in session and apply these tools in your day-to-day life. Please note: I only offer online therapy.

The process of finding a therapist can be a difficult journey but this is a great place to begin. I am glad you are here. Here is a little bit about me to see if you feel that I am a good fit to support you. I am a licensed clinical social worker and believe in creating a space in which you can be authentically you with affirming and caring support.

My practice is grounded in the belief that we heal through attuned relationship. I hold the therapeutic alliance in high regard and value co-creating space for exploration with clients. Depending on what you bring to our sessions, attachment-based, existential, psychodynamic, or EMDR techniques may be incorporated.

I am an empathetic Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) who practices in New Mexico. With a Bachelor's degree in Psychology and a minor in Communication from the University of New Mexico, earned in 2020, I have a solid foundation in understanding human behavior and effective interpersonal communication. I furthered my education by securing a Master's Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center in 2023, equipping me with advanced therapeutic skills to serve clients effectively. My clinical practice is especially attuned to the needs of public safety personnel and their families.

We specialize in trauma for all ages. Toddlers to the elderly can be seen at our clinic. Our clinicians are trained in play therapy, EMDR, Infant Mental Health, Theraplay, COS, CBT and many other modalities.

Life is hard. People are hard. Systems are hard. At times, it can feel like there is so much working against our well-being and the life we hope to live, the relationships we hope to have. And we all have beautifully complex healing systems that are unique to our passions, experiences and ultimately our core. I enjoy engaging with people in their stories and exploring a balance of struggles that have caused suffering as well the narratives that are unexplored. Navigating the mind body connection and valuing both equally in healing is important to me.

I’m a highly experienced psychotherapist working with clients in Santa Fe and Albuquerque. I love moving with people through the places they want to change and grow. I’m honored to help those seeking clarity, calm, wisdom, freedom, and understanding.
