Seeking help isn't always easy, and I believe finding the right provider should feel like a good fit, not just another appointment. As a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP), my goal is to create a space where you can speak openly, feel genuinely heard, and know that we're working together as a team.
I enjoy caring for individuals across the lifespan, including children, adolescents, adults, and older adults. I treat anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, trauma-related concerns, OCD, insomnia, and other mental health challenges. I also help people navigate grief, life transitions, caregiver stress, and the emotional impact that chronic medical conditions can have on everyday life.
I don't believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. Every person has a different story, and treatment should reflect that. Whether we're discussing medication, coping strategies, or lifestyle changes, I want you to feel informed, comfortable asking questions, and involved in every decision we make.
My hope is that you leave each appointment feeling understood, supported, and with a clear plan for moving forward.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an ADHD Therapist in Albuquerque
Finding ADHD therapists in Albuquerque starts with knowing what kind of support you want. Therapy can help with executive function, organization, time management, emotional regulation, and related concerns like anxiety or depression. Some people look for an adult ADHD therapist, while others need a therapist with experience supporting children or teens. A psychiatrist or other qualified prescriber may help with medication management, while a therapist can offer skills-based support through approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy for ADHD, behavioral therapy, or coaching-informed strategies.
In Albuquerque, your search may include therapists with offices near work, school, or home, as well as therapists who offer virtual appointments across New Mexico. Virtual care can expand your options if local availability, transportation, or scheduling makes in-person visits harder to fit into your week. As you compare therapists, look at appointment availability, whether they are accepting new clients, and how they describe their approach to ADHD therapy. Provider bios can help you see whether a therapist specializing in ADHD also has experience with co-occurring concerns, such as anxiety, depression, learning differences, or stress.
Therapy in Albuquerque can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before you book. Headway helps you compare ADHD therapists in Albuquerque who are accepting new patients, review detailed bios, check insurance fit, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs upfront. From there, you can browse therapists, review available times, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're already taking psychiatric medication and considering switching providers, talk to your current prescriber before changing or stopping any medication — most psychiatric medications shouldn't be stopped abruptly. Anyone experiencing thoughts of self-harm or in acute crisis should call 988 or go to the nearest emergency department rather than wait for an outpatient appointment.
