Therapists in New Mexico

In psychotherapy, the therapeutic relationship plays a central role in fostering change and personal growth. I aim to establish the trust and support necessary for achieving therapeutic goals. Psychotherapy involves identifying and addressing challenges while removing obstacles to lead a more fulfilling, authentic, and meaningful life. I believe there is an inherent wisdom within each of us, but we sometimes become lost and lose our connection. I approach the client with warmth, understanding, and mutual respect, serving as a supportive ally on the path to healing.

My name is Cynthia Tobar-McCoy and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in New Mexico and Oklahoma. I am honored each day to walk along side individuals who choose to therapuetically journey through the path of overcoming life stressors. Stressors can come in the form of experiencing conflict in relationships with family, couples, marital and peer groups, as well as grief, trauma and suffering from posttraumatic stress. Stress can also manifest itself when working to maintain a healthy recovery plan that addresses certain medical conditions of depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder and obsessive compulsive disorder.

My goal in psychotherapy is to establish a genuine relationship with my clients in order to foster emotional growth and change. We participate in an empathetic collaboration to address emotional and/or behavioral struggles with sensitivity to strengths and limitations. As my clients gain insights into their lives, I encourage them to consider taking actions to affect change. They thereby gain self confidence and a sense of well-being that empower them to reach their goals. In our exchanges we discuss the emotional, cultural, and social conditions that they face, in order to promote greater self-awareness.

By addressing troubling thoughts and feelings, self-sabotaging behaviors, and traumas, life can be made more manageable, productive, and fulfilling. Feelings such as grief, shame, anxiety, sadness, and anger often signal that something needs to change. Listening to and working with these feelings—some that consume us and others that gently nudge us—can move us forward. Through this, we sometimes discover that our everyday dilemmas are part of larger patterns waiting to be resolved as a whole.

My PhD in Clinical Psychology has given me the knowledge and sensitivity that psychotherapy is a very personal experience. Together we gain the trust to peel the layers of the "false self" away from the true, authentic self. Each person is different, therefore each person's healing has to be treated individually. Human suffering can be healed and I treat trauma from early childhood to the present, treating unhealthy early attachment issues we may use now in relationships. Together we will examine patterns which the patient finds distressing and long standing. I do not give advise, rather I help the patient find the advise within.

We believe at some point everyone comes across situations that need an outside perspective—these crossroads can determine the direction we go.

Most of my clients want to be able to love themselves, and to be able to love others. They have a variety of issues that prevent that love from happening: trauma, abandonment, emptiness, anger, compulsions, despair, fear, sadness, grief, lack of boundaries, or boundaries that are too harsh. My clients have inner voices that punish them or isolate them, when they only long to experience a full and satisfying life.

You exist within cultures, systems, and contexts that impact your health, wellbeing, and sense of who you are. Gender inequality, incarceration, racial inequality, LGBTQ discrimination, medical bias, financial insecurity, housing insecurity, etc. impacts our ability to thrive. We experience trauma within these systems and are left believing it's our own fault. Our own weakness. Our own problem to deal with. You are not alone! Navigating an unjust society is exhausting and you want to do more than survive and "get by". You want to thrive and live with integrity knowing that you exist and have a right to live with dignity.
