Therapists for Adults in Plaza Vieja, Albuquerque, NM
I work with adults, teens, and tweens (10+) who are:
Neurodivergent or creative thinkers;
Going through life transitions or identity shifts;
Seeking deeper connection after burnout or trauma;
Curious about spiritual or psychedelic integration;
Drawn to movement or creativity.
Before becoming a therapist, I spent many years as an attorney. I have also been a dancer, circus artist, activist, writer, librarian, game master, and chronically curious human being. I am neurodivergent and understand what it feels like to move through the world feeling simultaneously “too much” and deeply capable. You do not have to be good. You only have to show up. That’s the spirit of Wild Geese by Mary Oliver, and it’s the heart of my work. If you’re tired of therapy that feels like a test you could fail, this space is different. I believe healing happens when we move, create, build, and play. Let's make the world bigger.

Hi, I’m Adam and I’m glad you’re here. You may feel overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, stuck in patterns you can’t seem to break, or frustrated that you know what you “should” be doing but still struggle to do it. Maybe your mind rarely slows down, you overthink conversations long after they happen, relationships feel heavy, or life transitions have left you feeling overwhelmed. Are you feeling trapped in cycles with food, body image, or self-worth that leave you feeling ashamed, disconnected, or out of control. Therapy can be a space where you feel understood without judgment and begin untangling what’s been weighing on you.

I am passionate about providing a supportive, collaborative space where you can explore challenges, build on your strengths, and move toward the life you want to live. Together, we will work to develop practical coping skills, foster self-empowerment, and create meaningful change. Whether you are navigating anxiety, trauma, ADHD, or have other concerns, my goal is to help you find clarity and confidence as you take steps forward.

My ideal client is capable, thoughtful, and often exhausted from carrying too much for too long. They may struggle with anxiety, emotional overload, trauma, or long-standing stress, even while appearing “high functioning.” They want a safe, steady space to slow down, process experiences that still feel heavy, and learn healthier ways to regulate emotions and set boundaries. Their goal is not just symptom relief, but feeling calmer, more grounded, and more connected to themselves.

I work with people of all ages and backgrounds, with a focus on LGBTQ+ issues and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. Many of my clients are gay men healing from abuse, rejection, and the lasting trauma of growing up in a world that marginalized their identity. I take a client-centered approach, recognizing that PTSD can stem not only from major events, but also from chronic, smaller experiences that quietly erode a person’s sense of safety and self-worth. Together, we work to understand these wounds and build the capacity for healthier relationships, resilience, and self-acceptance.

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.

Years ago, when I began the journey to become a therapist, I found a letter written by my younger (8y/o) self. The letter said, "when I grow up I want to be a person that helps others, like a psychiatrist, a teacher or run a daycare." This letter is now on my wall in a frame to remind me everyday of the innocence of our youth. My drive rises from a place where we all have insecurities and we rise above and beat them. If it is from our trials that we learn how strong we can truly be.

Why should adults see a therapist?
Adults may benefit from therapy for a wide range of reasons—whether it’s managing symptoms of a diagnosed mental health condition like anxiety or depression, navigating life transitions, coping with grief or trauma, or simply seeking support during a challenging life period. Many adults find that therapy helps them build healthier coping skills and better process their emotions, which may lead to better relationships and reduced stress. It’s important to note that, unlike psychiatrists or primary care physicians, therapists do not prescribe psychiatric medication. However, they will often work alongside prescribing clinicians to ensure coordinated care and can provide behavioral therapy as an important addition to psychiatric medication. Mental health concerns can look different in adulthood than in childhood or adolescence, so finding a therapist with expertise working with adult clients is important. Conditions like major depressive disorder (MDD), generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), bipolar disorder, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), for instance, may present or resurface differently in adulthood than in childhood or adolescence. Adult-specific stressors, such as job strain, caregiving responsibilities, relationship challenges, financial stress, or identity transitions, can also influence the onset and type of symptoms an individual experiences. Adult-focused therapists, therefore, are trained to understand these complexities and tailor care accordingly.
How do I know if a therapist is the right fit for me?
When seeking care, it’s important to understand a therapist’s treatment specialties and their overall approach to treatment . Some therapists focus on common adult conditions like anxiety or depression, while others specialize in areas such as trauma, substance use disorders, or obsessive-compulsive disorder. It’s also important to consider a therapist’s training when seeking care. Therapists hold various licenses depending on their training and state requirements. Common therapy credentials include Licensed Clinical Social Workers (LCSWs), Licensed Mental Health Counselors (LMHCs), Licensed Professional Counselors (LPCs), and Licensed Marriage and Family Therapists (LMFTs). Psychologists (PhD or PsyD) receive additional doctoral-level training and may focus on assessments or more specialized therapeutic approaches. All of these professionals can provide talk therapy but do not prescribe medication. When searching for a therapist, consider their credentials and training background to ensure a good fit.
How do I find a therapist who sees adults?
Psychology Today’s online directory allows you to search specifically for therapists who work with adults. Each provider profile includes key information such as clinical specialties, therapeutic approaches, licensure, accepted insurance plans, languages spoken, and session fees. Reviewing these details can help you determine whether a particular provider aligns with your needs and can indicate whether they are a good match for adult clients.
