Therapists in Albuquerque, NM
Stop just surviving, and start thriving with practical tools for your intelligent mind. You're capable and checking the boxes, yet you constantly feel anxious, frustrated, and are running in survival mode. If traditional 'talk therapy' hasn't given you the practical tools you need to shift your nervous system, you're not alone. I know firsthand the power of these skills, having used them to navigate a 25-year life-threatening medical condition, plus the stresses of modern living with 3 kids. In a warm, non-judgmental setting, I provide counsel with lots of resources, such as supplementary videos, to facilitate your success!

Are you at the end of your rope? Have you been emotionally and/or sexually abused by a person in power? Have poor coping skills affected your life? I provide trauma-informed and compassionate care to those who find themselves in a situation where they are looking for help in sorting through the maze in their brain. I specialize in working with women who were betrayed and/or abused by religious and/or spiritual leaders. This form of abuse, while prevalent, has not had the attention it deserves, but I have witnessed incredible healing and want you to know the harm that was done can STOP hurting you.

Not accepting new clients
I am not currently accepting new clients but please visit our website to read our therapist bios. Many times in life we develop behaviors and patterns as a means to cope because this is all we have at the moment. Although these methods may no longer serve you, change is difficult. This is where therapy can offer the opportunity to heal painful wounds of the past, while developing healthier coping skills for today. I believe we all have the power to heal and overcome life's challenges, but sometimes need extra support and guidance along the way.

As a therapist my goal is to create the space for clients to feel safe and comfortable to begin their journey in healing. I believe the client is the driver and I am the one in the passenger seat pointing out the scenery and occasionally giving some direction. I support my clients from all walks of life with a non-judgmental attitude, full of support and kindness, with a little humor and some “realness” thrown in there I often utilize CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy) as a basis in our work, with my foundation and belief being client centered and knowing you are the expert in your life.
