If you are suffering from depression or anxiety, dysfunctional relationships, trauma, grief or a life transition, such as divorce, illness or job loss, I am here to help as these are my areas of focus. I ascribe to a bio-psycho-social-spiritual approach to therapy and believe these four elements make an important contribution to our mental well-being. To ensure healing, I will meet you where you are and we will call upon a broad array of disciplines within and outside of psychology. If you are seeking a meaningful and successful therapy experience, I offer an empathetic and caring environment which is the foundation of my work.

We provide therapy to women, adolescents, and children in New Mexico. Our specialty is treating trauma, perinatal mood disorders, and play therapy.

I work well with people who believe there is a hidden meaning or message in their struggles that can eventually serve as a path to a more soulful life. I see myself as a guide to help companion people through the underworld of depression, anxiety, and PTSD as well as a partner in transforming psychological suffering and intergenerational patterns into the medicine which can ultimately allow individuals and families to become more fully themselves. On the community level, I offer grief groups as well as climate support groups. Please see my website for more details.

The core commitment of my work is to support my clients as they explore and challenge themselves in pursuit of greater truth. My approach is informed by a variety of theoretical frameworks. In every session, I collaborate with you to understand your experiences and work toward change and healing that feels meaningful to you. I cultivate a safe, authentic, and non-judgmental space for you to center and balance as you experience life’s waves. To foster this, I use presence, active listening, and mindfulness as a foundation for trauma-informed care, inner relationship focusing, and Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing (EMDR).

My name is Cynthia Tobar-McCoy and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in New Mexico and Oklahoma. I am honored each day to walk along side individuals who choose to therapuetically journey through the path of overcoming life stressors. Stressors can come in the form of experiencing conflict in relationships with family, couples, marital and peer groups, as well as grief, trauma and suffering from posttraumatic stress. Stress can also manifest itself when working to maintain a healthy recovery plan that addresses certain medical conditions of depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder and obsessive compulsive disorder.

Sometimes it is difficult to make sense of thoughts and feelings, especially when many of us are told not to listen to what is happening inside. People seek therapy because they want to have a more satisfying life, and have been unable to achieve their goals due to internal and external stresses. It is difficult to discover what we already know and to bring that knowledge usefully into the world in the midst of the incessant demands of everyday life. I work with adults, adolescents and families on anxiety, depression and interpersonal problems that cause them concern. I find it very rewarding, working together toward a richer life.

Maureen Colligan CCMH0203321 I have been working in the helping profession for over 25 years and am committed to helping clients work through challenges they encounter. I see client experiencing depression, anxiety, grief, substance use and partnership issues. My approach to providing therapy is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with an eclectic person-center center approach which may include other approaches when needed. I hope to provide a trusting and safe environment for each and every client. I am soft spoken and have a tendency to joke now and then.

I enjoy working and developing a therapeutic relationship with people that are struggling in their life whether it's with depression, anger, trauma, anxiety, relationships or even a sense that something needs to change. It's within that struggle that the spark of hope resides and I see it as my job to help people focus on their future, their strengths and successes and then begin to rediscover the hope and power to begin to shape their future and their lives.

I work with a diversity of adults and couples experiencing relationship issues, anxiety, depression, PTSD, and life transitions. You may get into a pattern of conflict with your partner that feels repetitive. You may be struggling to find a sense of balance or hope, navigating life transition, feeling afraid to engage in activities you once enjoyed. You may be experiencing self-judgment, low self-worth, shame or just seeking change. I view these struggles as normal responses to past wounding, and an opportunity for deeper growth and acceptance. When you feel seen and heard in therapy, deep healing is possible.

Typically we put our self-care last on the list, only to pay a heavy price later. Can you imagine looking back a year from now and saying, “Wow, that truly doesn’t bother me any more.” Or, “I finally got to the next level.” Or, “I feel more myself now.” I am right here with you, every step of the journey, to help you meet your ultimate goal: Living Your Best Life. My therapeutic approach is direct, supportive, and collaborative. I provide sanctuary, a safe, non-judgmental space where you can spill out your heart and mind and begin to make sense of things. You’ll feel seen, heard, and acknowledged in a whole new way.

Are you looking to go beyond the surface and deep dive to discover the root of your suffering and struggles that you are facing? Are you needing to integrate pieces of your life story and make sense of something that has left you disjointed, disillusioned or trapped? Perhaps you are ready or feeling a need to create space to unfold some of the painful material that keeps you in perpetuating cycles or patterns that have been difficult to manage and break.

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.

We often have a sense that in some ways, somehow we have been holding back. The barriers hidden behind cost us in our capacity for intimacy, spontaneity, and precious space for the heart's need to express and to be seen. They are usually constructed for very good reasons; to avoid painful experiences and vulnerability. But more often than not, carry on decades beyond when the threatening events have past. Defenses, beliefs, and the wounds that shut us down developed around people. The healing can happen when we feel safety again. Not surprisingly, this needs to happen with people too.

Life today can be overwhelming. Maybe we are able to accomplish life's daily tasks, like work, and still feel an underlying dissatisfaction, or anxiety on a daily basis. The pandemic is affecting us in ways we are still learning about. You may need to process your emotions and experiences and learn new skills to address and cope with the challenges of life. I provide a warm, open, nonjudgmental environment for you to process painful feelings, stuck points in thinking, self judgment, and most importantly, to move forward to your personal goals.

Thank-you for your interest in my private practice. Whether you are feeling stuck in a pattern or experiencing self-defeating behavior, my goal is to help you achieve your best self, and create the life you desire. I work for you, or your child to achieve your goals, providing a confidential and safe environment to help you create changes in as little time as possible. While I am fortunate to have advanced training and excellent education, I find that personal life experience and triumphs to be the invaluable education, shaping me into a seasoned psychotherapist best equipped to serve my clients.
