**Unfortunately I have no availability until September 2022****Welcome and thank you for visiting. There are many professional therapists to choose from. It's often hard to distinguish between everyone and feel you've made the right decision. Finding a genuine connection can take time. It's alright to change your mind if you don't feel comfortable. The best counseling environment encourages exploration of who you are with someone you trust, accepts you as you are, and travels where you feel needed to go. I hope when we work together that you feel this connection.

David Belford
Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LISW
Verified
As a licensed independent social worker with over 25 years of experience providing therapy, supervision, training, and consultation, much of my practice has centered around parent-
child
relationships and working with people of all ages that have experienced trauma.
I believe one of the greatest gifts we can develop is the ability to choose how we respond to others and to life’s challenges. This often starts with an increased awareness of why we think, feel and act in the ways we do, and when those ways have become automatic and no longer support our well-being.
Ina Krieble
Counselor, MA, LPCC
Verified
My counseling practice includes adults, adolescents and
children
as well as those on the DD waiver. I am trained in Sand Tray Therapy and in EMDR. I believe that as people become more accepting of themselves, they are more capable of finding happiness and contentment in their lives. If counseling is successful, you should feel that you are able to face life's challenges in the future better than you could before and can face life's challenges in the future without my support or intervention.

don't live in a vacuum, either. In working with them, you'll be included in parts or all of their sessions. My practice is called the Rio Rancho Family Counseling Center.
