Therapists in New Mexico

I don't have all the answers. I don't know you. What I do know is that life has many challenges especially for teens and their care givers. With your help, we can develop strategies that will work for you as you face life's challenges. There are things we cannot change. How we deal with what we can't change, is to use what we can change. There are times when you will know what works for you and what doesn't. Together we can identify what doesn't and what will work for you.

Honoring the dignity and worth of each person and the value inherent in every aspect of a life's journey, I support you in strengthening your response-ability to life's challenges and creating a life that works for you. Our work is rooted in neuroscience and playful in its experiential components. By skillfully connecting you deeper with yourself, you learn to skillfully navigate emotional difficulties. Founding our relationship on respect, safety, compassion, and non-judgment enables you to heal and bring more of your unique gifts and talents into every aspect of your life.
