Therapists in Santa Fe, NM

Change and impermanence are the great constants in our lives. If you are in a time of transition, and are experiencing symptoms such as depression, anxiety, health issues, or relationship concerns, I would like to meet with you. I hold a Ph.D.in Clinical Psychology with an emphasis in depth psychology. I bring a psychodynamic and relational perspective to consultations with adults of all ages. With mindfulness and compassion, we create together a safe and confidential alliance for exploration of old limitations and emerging possibilities.

Do you sometimes feel alone and sad even with friends and family? Together, we can explore these feelings, transform them, and increase vitality. We will unravel issues that may be causing suffering or isolation; such as depression and anxiety, loss and grief, trauma, or substance abuse. We will face the dragons of suffering together, and unleash your wise and intuitive self to become empowered and embodied. Our work will allow you to remove the barriers to an emotionally close and satisfying relationship with yourself and others. This allows for a greater sense of joy & aliveness.

You deserve a healthier, wealthier, and more fulfilling life where you wake up ready to tackle every day with passion and enthusiasm. Helping people tap their innate strengths and shift their thinking to reach and even surpass their potential is what gets me out bed every morning. My life’s mission is to help you break through your challenges and overcome your limiting beliefs to attain the results you desire and deserve, and have fun doing it. Together we'll overcome your limiting beliefs, follow a proven framework for creating new habits to overcome those beliefs, and then work to reinforce those new habits to achieve your goals.

I am a Solution Focused Therapist working with individuals and couples. I have been in practice for 28 years. In my Solution Focused approach, a person looks at the issues/areas of life that need to be changed, and what habits, behaviors, actions and choices keep perpetuating these issues in your life or relationships. We look at when these issues are resolved, what will be different? What will you notice now that these issues are no longer on the emotional property of your life? What will others notice? What has stopped you in the past?

The time is now. Today is the day to remember that it's just one moment at a time, one breath at a time. Taking a moment to reconnect with the feeling centers inside in a safe and calm way. Through talk therapy and non-judgmental creative exploration with color, texture, earth based materials, 2-D/3-D elements,etc., we can work on processing, communication and strengthening your personal tools for everyday living. I also have over 20 years of experience with women’s counseling, prenatal/postnatal counseling, birth coaching, nutritional counseling, and multicultural & diversity counseling.

I commonly see people with concerns such as depression, anxiety, trauma, addiction, and grief. In session, we will look at what you are hoping to get from the counseling experience and collaboratively discover what will work for your situation, which may involve getting unstuck from emotional and/or behavioral issues. My orientation includes considering our relationships to life. We will take into account relational factors, which may include environments, people, culture, expectations and roles. The therapy process may assist you in gaining a deeper understanding of your values and skills, toward transformative change.

The core commitment of my work is to support my clients as they explore and challenge themselves in pursuit of greater truth. My approach is informed by a variety of theoretical frameworks. In every session, I collaborate with you to understand your experiences and work toward change and healing that feels meaningful to you. I cultivate a safe, authentic, and non-judgmental space for you to center and balance as you experience life’s waves. To foster this, I use presence, active listening, and mindfulness as a foundation for trauma-informed care, inner relationship focusing, and Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing (EMDR).

I use a holistic framework to educate my clients about how and what to eat in order to feel energized, grounded and well nourished. I help them to create habits that support their health and wellness goals. This includes counseling and education around holistic nutrition, meal planning and the connection between food and mood. I help my clients to identify the core values in their lives and to understand how emotional eating can affect the realization of their goals. I help my clients develop strategies around food that support their vision for wellness in a meaningful and sustainable way.

I want to support your goals and help you make the changes you want in your life. Whether it is feeling more alive, greater self-worth, moving out of old patterns, better relationships, less shame/depression/anxiety/isolation, addressing addiction - I will support your goals to lead the life you want.

With over 30 years of experience serving as a therapist to children, adolescents and adults, I work from an integrative perspective and rely on a broad range of techniques including psychodynamic, transpersonal, somatic experiencing and family systems interventions. I often integrate traditional therapeutic approaches with coachiing techniques depending on your unique needs and goals. As a serious student of shamanism for more than 20 years, I combine these contemporary methods with ancient indigenous wisdom to support a connection to your heart, your inner wisdom, and your personal power.

Exploration and resolution of issues and challenges is a part of the call to therapy. Each of us has a spark—that inherent worth which makes us unique and valuable. Discovering or re-discovering our spark can be one of the most exciting journeys we ever take. Spark can also mean our life purpose, direction, or how we want to live in the world. We seek to uncover this spark because we know, deep down, that there is more, a lot more, than what we experience in our day to day lives. My calling is facilitating others in re-igniting their spark. My approach is simple, grounded in the awareness of your pre-existing awesomeness.

I enjoy supporting adults with self-discovery, increasing self-worth and creating more fulfilling relationships. I specialize in the treatment of sexuality, including sexual trauma, sexual compulsion, sexual difficulties, improving intimacy and enhancing sexual pleasure. I have extensive experience working with PTSD and trauma related symptoms, such as anxiety, depression, flashbacks and shame.

Through therapy with me, you can expect a transformative and agenda-free space in which to explore, discover, grow and empower yourself. My approach to therapy is broad and inclusive. I have specific training in humanistic psychology, depth psychology, and relationship counseling. I often work with dreams, as well as draw from cognitive behavioral and somatic techniques. However, far more important than any particular modality or technique is what arises in the present moment interaction between you and me.

I offer one-on-one psychotherapy with adults who wish to suffer less. As Haruki Murakami wrote, “Pain is inevitable. Suffering is optional.” I am an integrative therapist, drawing from various traditions to provide patients a unique, tailored therapeutic experience, generally working in a humanistic and contemplative framework.

As a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW), I have been providing counseling to individuals for 14 years. I utilize a combination of therapeutic techniques to increase both self-awareness and insight as well as skill building and coping strategies. My belief is that the key to successful treatment is the therapeutic relationship. In my practice, I aim to create a collaborative, open, and safe therapeutic environment. During our first session, my goal is to work with you to develop an individualized treatment plan based on your unique needs. I provided telehealth services in Arizona, California, Colorado, New Mexico and New York.
