Christian Therapists in Huning Highland Historic District, Albuquerque, NM
Do you struggle to know who you are, what you want, or what you truly need? If you grew up in a home where you didn't feel safe, seen, or good enough, you may have spent so much of your life adapting, people-pleasing, or staying in survival mode that self-discovery took a back seat. Many of my clients feel disconnected from themselves and struggle with boundaries, self-worth, anxiety, or relationships. Together, we'll build clarity, self-trust, and an intentional path forward that reflects who you are—not who you had to become to survive.

Creo que es muy bonito sanar junto a alguien que conoce bien el camino. Caminar con alguien que te puede cubrir con paraguas si llueve, con un abrigo si hace frio, con risas si es largo el camino. Tengo mucha experiencia (25 a!n!os) sanando todas las condiciones y edades (desde 4-100 a!n!os), entrenando estudiantes de medicina, psicología y trabajo social con gran humildad. Utilizo muchos métodos para curar: hipnosis, terapia narrativa, limpias, reiki, constelaciones, grupos de madres e hijas, de tejer, de jugar, de familias. Escuchar las historias de las personas es una gran bendición en mi vida y seria un placer escuchar la tuya.

We all know what anxiety feels like. We get butterflies in our stomachs, our hearts pound; we worry and fret, or feel jittery. This can happen when we are alone, in social contexts, elevators, in the car, or even just thinking about it. If worries and fears, anxiety, panic, or insomnia related to anxiety are preventing you from living your life the way you’d like, you may be suffering from an anxiety disorder. Anxiety is an emotion characterized by feelings of tension, worried thoughts and physical changes like increased blood pressure. In short it is our body’s response to a perceived threat.

Post-Traumatic Stress (P.T.S.) is an injury to the emotional part of the brain from which a person has difficulty recovering after experiencing or witnessing a terrifying event. The condition may last months or years, with triggers that can bring back memories of the trauma accompanied by intense emotional and physical reactions. Symptoms may include nightmares, flashbacks, insomnia, anger, unwanted memories of the trauma, avoidance of situations that bring back memories of the trauma, heightened reactions, anxiety, or depressed mood. After 6 months of symptoms the diagnosis of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) may apply.

I work with high‑functioning adults and professionals who want clarity—not therapy. My clients come to me when they’re navigating burnout, ADHD/executive function concerns, trauma patterns, workplace stress, or leadership challenges and need evaluator‑grade insight. I provide structured psychological assessments, personality and leadership profiling, workplace functional evaluations, and psychological coaching for growth and performance. I also accept employer‑provided professional development funds. I do not provide WAIS testing, neuropsych evaluations, or crisis response.

Are you struggling in a relationship that leaves you feeling confused, invalidated, gaslit, and questioning your own reality? Do you feel like you are involved with a "Jekyll and Hyde"? This can be a partner, a parent, a boss, or a close friend. If so, you may be suffering from Narcissistic Abuse. These types of relationships can lead to symptoms of PTSD, chronic illness and isolation. I can help you understand what is happening to you on a psychological and emotional level, and how to change your reactions and functioning in or out of the relationship.

Why is it important for a therapist to be culturally sensitive?
Therapists and clients don’t need to share the same belief system or background to be able to work effectively together, but a therapist whose training includes a focus on cultural competence may be better able to form a therapeutic bond with individuals from a range of backgrounds, as they will have experience in tailoring their approach to each client—and will be prepared to acknowledge and consider the effects of culture, religion, and other factors on each individual.
Why is it important to find a therapist sensitive to Christian values?
Each person brings a unique history and background to therapy, making it important to find a licensed therapist who is trained in a broad range of treatment modalities. In addition, for people who grow up in a faith tradition that strongly influences the way they conduct their everyday life, finding a therapist who understands or shares that background can ease the disclosure of sensitive information and facilitate the therapeutic process. For some clients, a Christian therapist is likely to incorporate faith-based principles into emotional healing techniques.
How do I recognize an effective Christian therapist?
Christian therapists are licensed mental health professionals—holding a master’s or doctoral degree in medicine, nursing, psychology, counseling, social work, or marriage and family therapy—who are also familiar with Christian beliefs and values. They have an understanding of the importance that Christian principles play in the lives of individuals and families, which allows them to be especially sensitive to the kinds of struggles that can affect daily functioning. Like all effective therapists, a Christian therapist will have undergone training and certification in a variety of treatment modalities that help people through crises and enable them to master the challenges of life.
Why might someone feel comfortable with a Christian therapist?
While training, qualifications, and experience are always important, research has long established that a strong alliance between client and therapist is a major contributor to therapeutic success. An alliance is likely to be strengthened with a therapist who not only is responsive to questions and concerns but also shares a client’s faith and values. Sensitivity to spiritual matters as well as to everyday struggles can provide a welcome sense of safety and contribute to the bond between client and therapist, both of which support the therapeutic process.
Who is included in Psychology Today’s directory of Christian therapists?
The directory of Christian therapists includes professionals who have shared their background in their profiles. However, not all therapists choose to disclose this information, and they may not appear in search results for this reason. The directory also shows therapists who indicate that they have extensive experience working with Christian clients, regardless of their own background or religious affiliation.
