Relationships are a constant in our lives, and the relationship with oneself is central to them all. Relationship dissatisfaction and the desire to better understand what is causing it, leads people to my office. I frequently work with individuals and couples who are considering significant changes and want support through the transition and creation of their new realities. I also work children ages 10+. My clients are those who are interested in navigating relational changes and co-parenting with skill, integrity and mutuality. I welcome the opportunity to support you in creating the future you desire.

I welcome clients who seek therapy in order to change behaviors, relationships, or careers that are unsatisfying, and those who wish to unleash their creative energies - in the arts, business, academia, in parenting, and partnership. I especially enjoy clients who are questioning their relationship with addictive substances and are ready to take positive action. I have a warm and engaging style that my cients enjoy. I also specialize in healing the trauma of equestrian accidents.

Robert Frost wrote “THE BEST WAY OUT IS ALWAYS THROUGH”. I come from a strength-based perspective, using an eclectic approach by offering a variety of therapeutic modalities that are oriented to the individual. Modalities inlcude EMDR and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I seek to help clients transition through difficult/challenging times to experiencing life in a more fulfilling & positive light.

Over 27 years I've had the privilege of helping children, teens, parents, co-parents, adults, and families; facing tough and painful circumstances. Family, Children's, Delinquency, and Criminal cases continues to lend support for those involved in legal matters. Parents are powerful influencers good & bad. I work to improve, empower and educate for more functional relationships. Children and teens often need an objective ear to help them with increasing pressures. Adults seeking support and problem-solving tools for relationships, career, and childhood-effects are also valued focus. This includes the effects of trauma and abuse.

I hope to work with you in deepening connection and intimacy in your relationships and in building a more meaningful, fulfilling life. During crisis or a difficult impasse, I help couples find and develop safe refuge in each other, and make sense out of distressing challenges. We work together to create more satisfying resolutions. With over 30 years of experience, I am the only Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) Certified Therapist and Supervisor in New Mexico. This evidence-based approach reduces conflict and strengthens relationship closeness. EFT is effective for many types of issues for my clients and couples.

I offer deep therapy based on attachment theory and communication skills development, depending on your needs, to engage you (and/or your partner) in a meaningful and heartfelt exploration of your life support needs. Move past limiting thoughts and behaviors and develop deeper connections. Clients have said that they appreciate my non-judgmental, yet direct approach. My response - "I am in your corner, routing for you". It takes courage but once you embark on this journey you will say, "Why didn't I do this sooner"?

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 have a FEW openings for MEDiCAID clients. I really enjoy working with teens and young adults. I also work with adults of all ages. Most of my clients are working on resolving sexual orientation questions, gender identity concerns, low self-esteem, self-identity issues, depression, anxiety, and social fears, among other problems. As a member of the LGBTQIA+ community, I have a particular interest in supporting gender non-conforming people and the community as a whole. If I don't feel like the right therapist for you, please see our website for profiles of all of our therapists.

Seeking therapy is often prompted by sudden crisis or by having reached the limit of endurance over an issue or situation. I work to help re-establish a greater sense of inner wellbeing and a deeper sense of one's self, from which clients are able to more successfully address depression, anxiety, life transitions and difficult relationships.

I am currently not accepting any new clients. I do have a waitlist. I have worked with mothers and their families across the lifecycle including adolescence, pregnancy, postpartum, menopause, and end-of-life concerns. I specialize in working with individuals and families in transition such as the transition to becoming pregnant, becoming parents, changing jobs, empty nesters, and aging/loss. If you are looking to heal old patterns and beliefs that keep you stuck than we might be a good fit to work together. I also utilize EMDR therapy to reprocess past traumatic incidents so that you can heal and move forward in your life.

Do you find yourself dreading going home, anticipating the same destructive interactions with loved ones? Are you isolating? Can you imagine truly fulfilling relationships with clear communication and a satisfying life? Do you believe that you are ready for a new chapter? Are you willing to change? If the answer is YES, you have already begun the process; awareness is the first step. If you are ready to make the commitment to yourself to realize the life you want and deserve to be living, let me help you with that. My job will be to deliver non-judgmental clarity, along with the safety, empathy and guidance to get you there.

Everyone has the capacity to heal no matter how profoundly wounded they are. Each individual's path to healing will be unique and for the best chance of long term recovery a person needs to find a healthy balance within their body, mind and spirit. It is my intention to help each client find the unique treatment team to help them achieve this balance. Additionally, I am experienced in affective, eating and personality disorders, substance abuse and trauma. I also understand how each of these interact with one another and can cause even more distress within each person.

I have been working with adults, couples, and adolescents for over 35 years. I offer a compassionate approach to self exploration and deep transformation. I have been trained in many different modalities including cognitive behavioral work, solution focused therapy, gestalt, psychodrama, guided imagery, working through grief and loss, inner child work, dream work and depth psychology. Because of the many years I have been in practice, I am able to utilize a broad range of approaches and together we will design a therapeutic approach which will best meet your needs.

This is a trying time. Support is vital to living a full life. My approach is one of mentorship, not typical therapy. I am walking alongside you in life's journey, in addressing the big questions of who am I? And, what am I to do with this one precious life? Especially in the face of endless distractions, world crisis and basic relationships. I especially like working with teens and young adults, exploring these questions and issues. Sometimes we just need someone to back us up and reflect our personhood, engage our integrity and connect us to our deeper knowing. I guide an experience of connection that enables one to thrive.

I am a psychologist that specializes in therapy for adolescents and adults. I enjoy working with those who are struggling from a number of issues and custom tailor my approach to each of my clients, pulling from research and the most effective treatment methods. If you are unsure of your needs, please feel free to call and clarify.

Are you ready for change? I welcome your call to see if my collaborative therapy approach is right for you. Research and experience suggest that it is our therapeutic relationship that matters most to the counseling process, not technique. I have a highly personalized, warm responsive style and offer a range of holistic approaches from solution-focused strategies and interventions to mindfully exploring the depths of interpersonal relationships and existential dilemmas. My goal as a therapist is to support you in finding and answering the questions inside you while feeling held and free.

I work collaboratively with my clients to help them construct a meaningful life. This means supporting clients to make meaning of even the more painful aspects of their experience. Perhaps you are dealing with a difficult life transition, struggling with memories from a painful childhood, grieving the death of a loved one, engaging in self-destructive behaviors, or are attempting to navigate the complex world of relationships. I will work with you to address issues from the perspective that although life is often painful, people have the ability to make healthy choices and to live lives of integrity, depth, and beauty.

Stressful situations can happen suddenly, or build over time. Whether it is a relationship issue, traumatic experience, life transition, or career challenge, I can help you move from surviving to thriving. Using comprehensive methodologies, I offer a highly personalized approach, tailored to each client. I work with individuals to help them build on their strengths and attain the healing, growth and change they are looking for.
