Therapist

I have been an independently licensed clinician for the last 18 years but I have been in the field of treating clients with addictions and trauma for 35 years. I work within individuals and couples and I strongly believe in and support any individuals right to Discover and nurture the physical, emotional, sexual, and spiritual aspects of who they are and what it just means to be human; this is a judgment free zone so it's important for me to create environment and be fully present to hold a space in order to explore some frightening or painful places. We explore shame based family values, traumatic events and it's impact on clients day-to-day life and relationships. This is someplace you can come to heal.

Therapist

Virtual • New Mexico


Hello, I am Michele Hardwick, and I have over 11 years experience as a Clinical Counselor. As a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) with a unique experiential approach, I specialize in guiding clients aged 16 to 65 through challenges such as anxiety, depression, and significant life transitions. I enjoy working with individuals who have a faith practice or those exploring their spiritual lives. I believe that spiritual growth can play a vital role in mental health and personal development. Recognizing that factors such as exercise, nutrition, sleep, relationships, and career significantly influence how we feel, I work collaboratively with clients to address these areas as part of our treatment plan. My practice encourages active participation in sessions, empowering you to make meaningful changes and improve your overall well-being.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Albuquerque

Searching for therapists in Albuquerque starts with knowing what kind of support you want and which therapist may fit your needs. People look for therapy in Albuquerque for many reasons, including anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, relationship challenges, and life transitions. As you compare Albuquerque therapists, look for listed specialties, therapy approaches, and experience that match what you want to focus on. A therapist’s profile can also show whether they use approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or eye movement desensitization and reprocessing.

Albuquerque has a broad local therapy market for a mid-size city, with options across areas like Nob Hill, the North Valley, Downtown, and the Northeast Heights. Your best fit may depend on location, appointment times, and whether you prefer in-person or virtual sessions. Virtual therapy can also make it easier to see a therapist licensed in New Mexico if office locations or schedules are limited. Before booking, review each therapist’s bio for details about communication style, session structure, availability, and whether they offer a free phone consultation.

Therapy in Albuquerque can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you search for therapists in Albuquerque, NM who are accepting new patients, review detailed profiles, verify your insurance, and see an estimated session cost before you book. You can browse therapists, compare fit, and book directly when you’re ready.
