Lovelace Therapists in Albuquerque, NM
Couples Counseling with a therapist who “gets it” is often just what is needed for a relationship that is struggling, in conflict, on its last legs, or when it is going through transition. Sometimes relationships are in crisis due to infidelity or the discovery of pornography use. Couples counseling is proven to be very helpful in these situations, resolving relationship conflicts such as sexual problems, financial conflict, disagreements over parenting issues, or communication problems among other issues that arise in relationships.

Therapy in Motion: Walking • Storytelling • Movement • Creative Exploration
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.
Our sessions might happen on a walking trail, with your dog trotting beside you.
They might unfold through movement or dance, through the stories you tell, or even through Dungeons & Dragons adventures that reveal your inner heroes and shadows.
I believe healing happens when we move, create, and play — not just when we talk about pain.

I have recently published my dissertation on Healing the Feminine for women in recovery. My focus on women was based on my own experience of not having a connection to myself, searching all my life to discover who I am and engaging in unhealthy behaviors that only perpetuated not knowing. Although I focused on womens' struggle in recovery to connect with their feminine power my dissertation relates to all women who struggle on this journey. My specialties are addictions, trauma, women's issues.

I am currently accepting clients. You know how sometimes you start out your life and think you know how it will go…and then it doesn’t. Sometimes that is when therapy and understanding yourself in a new way can be the most helpful.

As a seasoned clinician, I practice full-hearted, relational therapy and counseling with clear focus and humor! Only if the relationship fits, and you are ready for in depth work: a) heal past trauma(s); b) look for deeper meaning/direction in your life through Jungian exploration of the unconscious (dream work, archetypes, shadow/body work, active imagination, etc.), which is often experiential; c) address anxiety about these times in a women's group. I also bring in sociological issues of oppression, racism, patriarchy, etc., as relevant, and have strong background in Buddhist meditation and Celtic spiritual pagan practice.

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.

Problem gambling is one of the most hidden addictions in the U.S. due to the shame and stigma associated with gambling problems. Many people still mistake problem gambling for a moral problem or simply see it as poor choice making, rather than understanding the complex brain hijacking that problem gambling is for some people who can’t quit. Several neurotransmitters including dopamine, serotonin, glutamate, opioids, to name a few, are acting simultaneously on the brain during problem gambling.
