Heidi Metcalf
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPCC
We want the best for our children, but it can be tricky sometimes to know what to do to help. Often we rely on our own well meaning, but often flawed, upbringing as a default setting. To parent with consciousness, respect and calm in this day and age is challenging to say the least. In my practice, we explore the dynamics of your family relationships, your values, your desires for your child, as well as the needs and wants of your child. Counseling can be wonderful support in the challenging process of growing a happy human. Please call me for a free 20 minute phone consultation to see if we might be a good fit for your counseling needs.

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.
