Hi, I’m Kelly Cramer, a licensed professional counselor in Colorado and an LPCC in New Mexico. I have spent much of my career supporting kids, teens, and young adults—both in schools and through telehealth—so I’m comfortable with the real-life pressures that show up at home, at school, and in relationships. I also specialize in supporting adults through trauma, life transitions, and stress. I am a doctoral student in Counselor Education and Supervision at Oregon State University, with a research interest in the intersection of climate change and mental health. I care a lot about doing this work, engaging with thoughtfulness and integrity. I am noted as a therapist who is warm, practical, and genuinely on your team.
I came to psychology later in life, and I know how challenging life can be. I have known great joy and great sorrow in my life, and I can relate to the struggles of others. I love working with individuals who seek answers to move them forward in life. As a wife, mother, and grandmother, I know that individuals need to be heard and not lectured about what to do.
Double board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and Family Nurse Practitioner specializing in depression, ADHD, women’s mental health concerns, and the unique pressures faced by high-functioning professionals and students. My approach is collaborative, respectful, and nonjudgmental.
My name is Carolina. I've been a therapist for nearly 9 years in NM.
I believe healing happens when you feel genuinely seen, understood, and supported. My goal is to create a space where you can show up exactly as you are without fear of judgment.
I work with adults, young adults and children experiencing anxiety, trauma, depression, relationship challenges, emotional dysregulation, and life transitions. I integrate evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), somatic interventions, and mindfulness to help clients better understand themselves, develop effective coping skills, and create lasting change.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a LGBTQIA+ Therapist in Albuquerque
Searching for LGBTQIA+ therapists in Albuquerque starts with finding identity-affirming care. Look for a therapist who clearly names experience with LGBTQIA+ people, gender identity, sexual identity, relationship concerns, family dynamics, anxiety, or depression. Provider bios may also mention affirmative therapy, WPATH training, gender-diverse experience, or trauma-informed care. These details can help you find a therapist whose training and listed specialties match what you want support with.
Albuquerque has a meaningful network of mental health professionals, but affirming therapists may still be harder to find in some neighborhoods or schedules. Virtual appointments can expand your options across New Mexico while in-person care may be a better fit if you prefer meeting at a local office. As you compare therapists, look at appointment availability, whether a free phone consultation is offered, and how directly each bio discusses LGBTQIA+ populations. A clear profile can show how a therapist communicates, who they work with, and what kind of care they provide.
Therapy in Albuquerque can be expensive without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before booking. Headway helps you find LGBTQIA+-affirming therapists who are accepting new patients, match your preferences, and accept a wide range of insurance plans. You can enter your insurance details, review estimated out-of-pocket costs, compare bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
