Therapists Beginning With V in New Mexico

Whatever’s bothering you, even if it’s thoughts of suicide, you don’t have to face life’s overwhelming difficulties alone. Family and friends mean well, but because their backgrounds are often similar to your own, they may not have the ability to offer new perspectives, without judgment.

Are you in a life transition that seems confusing and too challenging to face alone? I have seen the positive effects that therapy and the therapeutic alliance can have on individual's lives. I am here to help you learn new ways of coping with, and hopefully overcome, the difficulties that you are currently experiencing. Through our therapeutic alliance I am certain that you will be able to move forward with your life to a more fulfilling place.

Are you curious about Hypnotherapy? I'm a Medical Hypnotherapist, with almost 10 years of experience and I love what I do. I am still in awe of how powerful the mind can be. My practice primarily focuses on healing past trauma, anxiety and letting go of fears/ phobias. I am the Hypnotherapist for you 1. If you struggle with anxiety, stress, or panic attacks 2. If you would like to heal a past trauma 3. If you feel stuck, lost, or lack clarity 4. If you want to learn about your mind and your intuitive gifts 5. If you are ready to let go of a fear or a phobia 6. If you are in the process of healing from narcissistic abuse.

I thought it was just me. This is the statement I hear frequently. I am here to help you realize that you are unique and the challenges you face are yours AND you do not have to face them alone. Too often our fears, our shame, our uncertainty hold us back from healing and asking for help. There is no struggle too big or too small to tackle alone. We are all perfectly imperfect and my goal is to help you embrace the parts of you that you would rather keep tucked away, heal from the stories you do not dare share with anyone, and use your life to create something beautiful.

Do you experience symptoms of emotional, relational, or physical pain, confusion, and loss? Anxiety, fear, hopelessness, and bodily discomfort can linger long after traumatic and destabilizing events. You can learn to navigate these symptoms, regulate them, and walk through the process of fear and immobility back to integrative functioning. My priority is to help you recognize, accept, heal, and integrate the difficulties you are experiencing and become aware of your inner strengths and guiding values through the process. You can find the strength and courage to engage again with life and the passion to not only survive but thrive.

When you are ready to work and feel change in your life, to notice things & deliberately work on constructing the desired outcome, we can work together to accomplish what you are hoping for. We can get you through anxiety, depression, relationship issues, parenting struggles or whatever else you might be facing. And know that if I cannot help you, I will work to try to help you find someone that can. I never leave people hanging; I see things through to support you fully.

I believe the most important qualities for a counselor to possess are genuineness & empathy. It is my purpose to create an atmosphere in which the client feels fully accepted exactly where they are. My experience includes working with children, adolescents, and adults seeking support for anxiety, depression, grief, relationship issues, and past trauma. My integrative counseling approach is guided by person centered theory, narrative, therapy, cognitive-behavioral therapy, and solution-focused therapy with the main goal being to provide a safe and nonjudgmental environment.

My goal in therapy is to meet you where you are and provide the support to access the tools you need to deal with your challenges.

Sooner or later life brings us challenges that feel overwhelming. And yet, many of us find it difficult to seek support. If this is you, I can help.

Adult life can be very stressful and finding a way to balance work, money, children, relationships, and past trauma without a loss of physical and emotional well-being is not easy. I work holistically to help you to restore the mind, body, and spirit connection.

I believe in building a healthy therapeutic relationship in order to understand the needs and strengths of my clients.

I work to help patients utilize their strengths in order to overcome barriers that interfere with their goals.
