Experiential Therapists in Albuquerque, NM

Together we create a safe and caring container for you to explore and resolve the challenges arising in your life. I champion your deepest hopes and dreams. With non-judgment and genuine trust in the deep process of healing, I will partner with you to move through struggles that seem insurmountable, and help you to resolve and heal at the deepest level.

As an AASECT Certified Sex Therapist, I help individuals and couples talk honestly about sexual concerns, relationship pain, shame, anxiety, and the parts of life that can feel too private or complicated to bring anywhere else. You do not need the perfect words before reaching out. My practice offers a thoughtful, confidential, and nonjudgmental space to begin.

I’m here to support you! I specialize in partnering with adults experiencing Anxiety, PTSD, Impaired Self-Esteem, Spiritual or Religious Stressors, Burnout and Compassion Fatigue. I provide Helping Professionals with a safe space to be vulnerable, explore a greater sense of authenticity, address life concerns and improve self-care. My intuitive and inclusive style may also help you to feel seen, safe, and invited toward possibilities. I also specialize in supporting persons who identify as Empaths, Highly Sensitive and/or Neurodivergent.

At The Balanced Path, we believe therapy is a partnership. We create a welcoming and compassionate space where clients can explore their thoughts, feelings, and challenges without judgment. Our therapists combine practical strategies with empathy and understanding, helping individuals, couples, and families build resilience, confidence, and a greater sense of balance in their lives.

Couples communication, conflict, and infidelity restructuring work are my specialties. I help clients build, rebuild (or enhance) relationship they want. If they aren't sure what they want, I help them work it out with their partner. I have 30 years experience in helping clients, students, teachers, professionals of many kinds, communicate needs, concerns and interests in ways that reduce distress and promote happiness.

Albuquerque faces elevated rates of substance use, trauma, and poverty-related stress shaped by the city's high crime rates and significant unhoused population. Therapists here frequently specialize in addiction recovery, trauma, and grief, serving a diverse community with large Native American and Hispanic populations who often seek culturally responsive care. Many practices offer bilingual Spanish-English services, and the University of New Mexico Health Sciences Center provides additional mental health resources. Finding a therapist familiar with the social and cultural landscape of the Southwest is a real advantage in Albuquerque.
