Therapists in Santa Fe, NM

I am an Individual, Marriage/Couple, and Family therapist offering evidence-based tele-health "Zoom" counseling sessions for New Mexicans and Washingtonians. My focus on resilience invites clients to utilize and develop their own internal strengths. As they begin to build skills, resolve conflict, improve communication, address challenges in their relationships, and reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression, many of my clients heal emotional trauma, relieve angst, find hope, and ultimately flourish.

You know the road to peace lies both in healing the past, and also moving forward. Addressing trauma feels empowering but overwhelming. Moving forward feels exciting, but potentially superficial. You want a therapist who can do both: heal the past, and take charge of the future. But there's another issue- you don't know which therapist to pick. You've had a bad therapist in the past, or heard about terrible experiences of your friends and family. You want to make sure that whoever you start working with, is professional, responsible, and effective.

I specialize in treating individuals struggling with trauma, identity, and relationship challenges. As an LMFT I also specialize in couples and family therapy. I use a combination of traditional analytic tools, existential psychology, and narrative therapy in order to address the depth of the person, while we work on creating your new story. I also use narrative work to directly treat trauma, PTSD, and relationship issues. Together we will manifest the change you desire in yourself and improve the depth and intimacy of your relationships.

I have worked with families, individuals and couples for many years, and find that bridging miscommunications to build connection is something I am deeply passionate about. When we can work to understand one another, we can often come to better understand ourselves, especially within these systems. I utilize a combination of Internal Family Systems (IFS), narrative and attachment theories with Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) in all my work with clients. I come from a family systems perspective believing our interconnectedness influences others, and empowering individuals to use this concept as a model of change.
