Therapists in Santa Fe, NM

Do you worry all the time? Perhaps you struggle to find self confidence or a positive relationship with yourself, you may also feel depressed or without joy. Your self defeating thoughts may be debilitating. Perhaps your relationships suffer. You aren't feeling like your authentic self and it takes a toll on your mental health.

I've been involved in the social service/mental health field since 07. My experience and career of assisting other ranges from working at a homeless shelter to incarcerated youth to Adult Inpatient Psych to One on one/Group General Mental Health concerns. Many of client concerns that I have assisted range from past/present trauma events, distorted view of self, and substance abuse and life transitions and cognitive distortions and depressed/anxious mood and etc. All with the goal of seeking some form of peace and balance in their lives.

My office is a safe place to talk about difficult things with no judgement, no matter who you are. Loneliness, worry, grief, loss, alcohol/drug misuse, and sadness are very common feelings and experiences. We all attempt to find relief from such pain and sometimes the relief is helpful but not necessarily healthy. I collaboratively work with people, including professionals in the helping field, to experience their discomfort with far more ease by using sound therapeutic modalities and coping skills. Along the way I will also help you realize that you are far more resourceful and capable than you may currently believe.

Welcome to my practice. I received my Masters degree in Counseling Psychology in 1985 from Illinois State University, and pursuing my doctorate in Counseling Education at the University of New Mexico. In 1985, I started my professional psychology career in Illinois on one of the first crisis hotline linked mobile psychiatric crisis intervention teams in the nation. It was awarded the National Award for Significant Achievement in the Field of Psychiatry from the American Psychiatric Association. I am a behavioral health clinical director for Presbyterian Medical Services specializing in Assertive Community Treatment and psychiatric Mobile Crisis Response.

I believe the foundation of any therapeutic relationship is a safe and welcoming atmosphere where clients can be and express their authentic selves. As we go through our lives we may find ourselves burdened by our past, torn by difficult decisions, or struggling to let go of behaviors that do not serve us how we would like them to. In therapy we take a mindful approach of gentle curiosity to welcoming and communicating with parts of our being that have been hurt, neglected or unreasonably burdened and learn skills and techniques to manage inner turmoil successfully.

Hi and welcome to Albuquerque Therapists. I'm a licensed clinical mental health counselor (LPCC) providing Telehealth throughout the state of New Mexico. I enjoy working with both men and women who are highly sensitive, anxious, or are going through a life transition and would like support and guidance. I believe you're the authority on your own life but would be honored to assist you in learning skills or exploring alternative perspectives to feel more calm, resilient, and empowered.

Within our current cultural paradigm, many individuals face heightened levels of stress, problematic substance use, and strained relationships. Social discourse regarding drug use, gender identity, and disability can cause negative self perception and aggravate rather than alleviate these distresses. As a counselor with lived experience, I promote a critically informed, empathetic and creatively embodied therapeutic practice that can help individuals better navigate such distressing experiences while developing the insights and skills to thrive despite our collective experience within oppressive systems.

Life brings us experiences which cause us stress, stretch our capacity to cope. We respond with depression and anxiety. We resort to ineffective behaviors such as substance use, attempting to maintain our stability. The impact on us can be devastating and we can spiral out of control, often resulting in a disruption in our relationships, ability to work, ability to manage tasks and affairs and our ability to find satisfaction or meaning in our lives. Using mindfulness based approaches and Internal Family Systems to remove blocking emotions and beliefs can help find balance and promote healing.

The purpose of counseling and psychotherapy is to help individuals embrace healthy life choices through self-understanding and self-awareness. Counseling helps clients/patients identify the causes of stress and to find meaningful and fulling remedies for their life situations, in a safe and supportive atmosphere.

Most of my clients are highly sensitive people who have strong intuition and want to work in a deep way. They often are therapists, healers, psychics and people for whom direct experience spirituality is important. Many of them have experienced talk therapy and want to go deeper, recognizing that the roots of most emotional or cognitive issues are below ordinary consciousness. They are seeking life-changing experience rather than mental insight. They appreciate a therapist who can see and acknowledge their inherent wisdom and power as a soul, and they are seeking a therapist who is highly trained and also works intuitively.

Life can be overwhelming, and it can be difficult to find balance maintaining our emotional well-being. The journey of healing is a collaborative process where you supported to safely explore life’s challenges in a nonjudgmental environment. Through the therapeutic relationship the healing process begins and enables you to access your inner strengths. Gaining insight into yourself with a trusting therapist is truly transformative. Through therapy we not only gain a deeper understanding of ourselves but also to the people in our lives and the world around us.

I had a psychology practice in Austin for 20 years, relocating to Albuquerque in 2012. As an outgrowth of my continuing work with clients from Texas, I have developed a specialty in providing internet therapy. My specialties include eating disorders, complex mood disorders, personality disorders, recovery from narcissistic abuse, and helping families with "failure to launch" young adults. I also provide consultation to parents who are struggling with an oppositional adolescent or an adult child with ongoing difficulties. I provide both therapeutic and forensic psychological evaluations.

ONLINE COUNSELING AVAILABLE NOW! Our desire is to put hope within reach. To us, putting hope within reach is much more than a vision – it’s a reminder that what we’re doing has an eternal impact. It emphasizes that one size solution does not fit every need. It’s the motivation behind the work that we do.

These are unprecedented times that we are living in, and there continues to be so much of the unknown out there and we all need help from others, especially now. So many people have been in isolation, and I feel that connection is vital to healing. I believe the ideal healing environment is one where you feel safe, respected, supported and valued. I work very hard to create this kind of space, especially as we are first getting to know each other. We all need to be heard and feel like someone understands what we are going through. I strive to offer this kind of understanding.
