Chris Benitez

I am a Down-to-Earth therapist who can help you reconnect with your own true nature, and the great outdoors. With the help of Mindfulness-based somatic practices, we can move from the distress of mental difficulties into relationship with the ground of our experience, and what better place to do that than on the literal ground offered by the forested trails of the Land of Enchantment. I offer mindfulness, somatic, and experiential talk therapy, utilizing cognitive behavioral therapy, Mindfulness Based Somatic Emotional Processing, and nature based ecotherapy. It can be hard to admit that you need help, and even harder to ask for help. If you are reading this-whether you are considering working with me or not-I hope that you will be kind to yourself in this process! Specialties: I work with clients from adolescence through adulthood and specialize in anxiety and life transitions. I practice via telehealth and outdoors using hiking and nature therapy. I am an especially good fit for outdoor athletes and guides, people with a strong connection to nature, and people who have experienced trauma related to climbing or other outdoor sports. Credentials & Experience: Certificate in Ecotherapy from TerraSoma Ecopsychology Training Institute
