About
Success in the process of psychotherapy is ultimately dependent upon the relationship between therapist and client. Beyond that--any additional modality training can be useful but not a replacement, for this all important element. I am a relationally trained psychotherapist. Creating a safe and nurturing space for my clients to do the work that is unique for each one of them, is my speciality. That means I am able to work with just about anyone and that I can help with nearly any - thing you may have going on in your life. Whether you carry a heavy load of anxiety or find yourself in active addiction; I believe I can help. Whether you are going through a divorce or trying to hold your relationship together; I believe I can help. If you are experiencing chronic pain or searching for the deeper meanings of life; I believe I can help. I am able to work with any age or ethnicity. I am LGBTQ+ supportive. I am happy to work with you individually, as a couple or family. I have room in my practice for you and/or someone you love. We are living in difficult times. I hope you won't deprive yourself of the support you deserve right now. I look forward to hearing from you. Credentials & Experience: I am now offering clinical supervision in addition to my regular client work. I have been added to the State of New Mexico's list of Approved Supervisors, which can be found on the NM Counseling and Therapy Practice Board web site.
"My work in both counseling and clinical supervision is guided and informed by my study of the following schools of thought: Applied Interpersonal Neurobiology, Harm Reduction, Body Mind Centering, Mandala Therapy and Astrological Inquiry."
