Male Therapists in Conchas Dam, NM

I have 25 years experience working productively with people of diverse backgrounds, ages, and sexual orientations. Our job together is to identify dysfunctional patterns that contribute to—even perpetuate—your difficulties. The main focus of therapy is to remove inner and outer obstacles that prevent you from reaching your goals and having better relationships. Please note, after years of counseling and assessment in offices, I‘ve recently moved into a different space: video. Active listening in a safe, private setting is foundational to this work. I’ve learned that the catalytic elements of good therapy can thrive via video too.

I am a dedicated clinician and I strive to create a strong, supportive space for clients who are interested in their inner work. I have worked with clients in severe emotional distress, and also with clients who just feel a need to "find a new path forward". Some of my clients come for brief intensive counseling during a crisis while others to do longer-term work on a quest for self-understanding and freedom from past painful experiences. Couples counseling is also part of my practice. I have extensive psychoanalytic training as well as experience in short-term modalities.

I offer grounded, compassionate, holistic, and insightful psychotherapy to individuals who are ready for real change. Together, we can address a broad range of issues, including: grief and loss, relationships and sexuality, trauma, LGBTQ issues, and spiritual issues. I believe in addressing the full spectrum of your concerns, from the most basic to those enduring patterns that have seemed stuck for years or even a lifetime.

Let me guess… you’ve tried therapy before but it didn’t “take.” Or… you’ve tried therapy and all you did was talk for an hour straight while somebody nodded at you, which left you wondering why you were even there in the first place. You’ll notice that most therapy gets caught up asking about your emotions; the proverbial “and how does that make you feel?” Then it’s typical to get caught up in an endless reaction loop, worrying about your emotions and where “they” are going to take you next. But consider this: what if it has nothing to do with your emotions? What if it has to do with your thinking?

​Desperately wrestling the couch cushions into a configuration that won’t kill your back, you finally break down into helpless tears. Your marriage is in tatters and you’re hanging on by a thread. Between your children and your careers, you’ve had nothing left for each other. It feels like you’ve forgotten how to enjoy one another’s company. You feel like a stranger in your own home. It’s either constant bickering or frigid silence. Getting older, you realize you don’t have the energy for either – and this couch brutalizing your spine. You’d do anything to get your best friend back. You need help before this distance grows too great

I work one on one with clients for the actualization of their potential and the reclaiming of their inherent gifts. Myself, a committed listener. Your life, our work. Together we engage in the process of Integrative Soul Coaching: a unique blend of transformational life coaching, depth soul work and discovery, and subtle energy enhancement. Clients report startling new breakthroughs in their attitude and outlook, mindset, energy level, creativity, spirituality, relationships and health. The result - your life ignites, and you are free to create your self anew and the life you've always truly longed for.

Perhaps you're struggling to adapt to challenging circumstances, resolve issues in relationships, process difficult experiences, break harmful habits, or simply just feel better.

I specialize in life transitions, anxiety, depression, and the exploration of purpose and meaning (using techniques of mindful awareness and somatic listening). Everything about us is okay, and it is through our most difficult challenges and deepest suffering that growth, healing and transformation ultimately occur. With this in mind, I try and help clients explore the messages in themselves and their life processes that will enable them to bear their difficulties and move forward.

The quality I enjoy most in a client is an intense desire to be free.

I start from the idea that we are all spiritual beings having a human experience and it’s this humanness that presents us with both unlimited abundance and challenges. Life can be complex and full at any age and most everyone is confronting an element of transition or change daily. Change, as we have all heard at one time or another, is the only constant in life. I believe we are motivated to change and evolve in life, that the Universe is nudging us to live more fully, with greater presence and gratitude. While the process of growth may not be necessarily simple, it is attainable to all of us.

Hello, I'm Lance, and I'm here to support you on your journey towards greater well-being. As a therapist, I believe in the power of collaboration and empowerment. With a background in both Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), I offer a holistic approach to mental health, focusing on practical strategies and mindfulness techniques to manage emotions and improve overall quality of life. Whether you're facing anxiety, depression, or relationship struggles, I provide a non-judgmental space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings.

AVAILABLE BY TELETHERAPY. Good therapy empowers. Whether for improving relationships, controlling emotions, reducing fears and anxieties, enhancing self-esteem, ending avoidance, or accomplishing important personal goals, successful therapy empowers, teaches, and eliminates barriers. With focus, commitment, and the right strategies, effective change can be generated and maintained. Unwanted habits can be replaced; stress, anxiety, and avoidance can be eliminated; self-control and emotional control can be strengthened; important skills can be acquired and sharpened; motivation can be increased; desired goals can be achieved.

I have successfully worked with individual adults, adolescents, couples, parents and children in Santa Fe since 1994. I am deeply respectful of people who seek me out. I am a keen listener and creatively solutions-oriented. My priority is to build a safe space to explore moods, feelings, anxieties, worries, thoughts and thought patterns, relationships and relationship patterns and a wide spectrum of traumatic life experiences that leave their mark on us. Things that are initially difficult to talk about air out and resolve in this collaborative space.

The purpose of counseling and psychotherapy is to help individuals embrace healthy life choices through self-understanding and self-awareness. Counseling helps clients/patients identify the causes of stress and to find meaningful and fulling remedies for their life situations, in a safe and supportive atmosphere.

I take a holistic approach to the transformational and healing process. I offer the opportunity to explore personal growth through the mind, body, and spirit. I use mindfulness practices to guide individuals and families through relationship challenges, grieving difficulties, and issues related to substance abuse, trauma, and other life stressors.

Earth Is a Place Souls Come To Evolve. We can learn to use the pains, struggles & wounds in our lives, to heal the past, to grow Emotionally/ Spiritually, & to deepen as human beings. Learning the tools on how to do this, provides a foundation for us to use each life situation for our growth and evolution, and dramatically improves the quality of our lives. Trauma Therapy & Parts work can release the hold of the past so we can live more in the present. I believe all psychological issues result from Trauma/ Overwhelm. For many of us healing early life relationship trauma such as Neglect, Abuse & Abandonment is essential.

Sometimes life events and experiences interfere with our ability to make sense of the world and find our place in it. We may lose our sense of safety and control and become flooded with overwhelming thoughts and emotions. Whether you’re feeling isolated, lonely, frustrated, fearful or confused, it is possible to emerge courageous and hopeful.

I hold an MS degree in Rehabilitation Counseling and am a Nationally Certified Rehabilitation Counselor and a California licensed Marriage & Family Therapist.
