I specialize in working with adolescents, young adults, and high performers—including Division I athletes, professionals, and anyone striving to meet high expectations. In my work, I’ve learned that growth happens at the edge of comfort—where support and challenge meet. My clients often tell me they appreciate my ability to be both direct and deeply compassionate, creating a space where they feel seen, understood, and encouraged to move forward.

Born in Taiwan, raised in Southern California, and trained in San Francisco and New Mexico, I bring a blend of cultural humility, life experience, and professional training into every session. As an Asian American therapist, I value identity, culture, and lived experience as essential pieces of healing. I aim to create a space where you can show up as your real self—without judgment, without masks.

Michelle Kirn

Therapist

Virtual • New Mexico


Hi, I’m Michelle — a therapist who believes healing happens through connection, understanding, and a touch of humor along the way. I grew up in Rochester, New York, so you’ll notice a bit of that East Coast directness in my style — I say what I mean, and I care deeply about helping you get to the heart of what’s really going on.

I earned my Master’s degree in Social Work from Western New Mexico University, where I discovered my passion for helping people heal and grow through life’s toughest challenges. I love working with individuals who have faced trauma, live with chronic health problems, or struggle with anger and other overwhelming emotions.

My own path to becoming a therapist began with my personal experience living with chronic health issues — so when I offer empathy, it’s not just professional, it’s personal. I’m an engaged, hands-on therapist who takes you and your situation seriously. Together, we’ll unpack what’s hard, find practical ways to cope, and reconnect you with your strength, balance, and a sense of calm.

Roxi Moore

Therapist

Virtual • New Mexico


I went back to school at age 40 to get my Master's in Social Work, which I received in 2019. I had been working in the behavioral health field for 6 years up to that point as a health navigator for a behavioral health outpatient clinic. During therapy, I help clients to process things from the past that are keeping them stuck related to their relationships with themselves and others. I utilize EMDR, CBT, ERP, and an attachment based approach and enjoy working with clients who have experienced any sort of trauma, would like to improve their relationships and communication skills, experience obsessions and compulsions, and more. My practice is called Warm Glow Therapy, which was named after a client's idea of a supportive resource. Despite the name, I am a down to earth person and therapist. I would love to help you create a plan for a better future! I am licensed to provide therapy for clients in New Mexico and Arizona. Feel free to send me a message if you have any questions you would like me to answer. New clients can schedule an initial intake or a brief consultation to discuss whether we would be a good fit.

Happy patient looking away

Find an expert who truly understands OCD

Headway helps you manage obsessive-compulsive disorder with expert-guided support — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an OCD Therapist in Albuquerque

Finding OCD therapists in Albuquerque starts with looking for the right training, not just the right location. OCD can involve intrusive thoughts, compulsive checking, contamination concerns, reassurance seeking, or mental rituals. Exposure and response prevention, often called ERP, is one therapy approach some providers use to support people with OCD, and not every therapist has training in it. As you compare therapists, look for bios that name OCD, ERP, anxiety-related concerns, or obsessive thoughts as listed specialties.

Albuquerque offers a mix of local offices and virtual therapy options, which can help you balance location, schedule, and clinical fit. If in-person OCD therapy near you matters, review office location, appointment availability, and whether the therapist is accepting new patients. If local openings are limited or your schedule is less flexible, virtual sessions may give you more options. Therapist profiles can also help you tell the difference between someone who lists OCD as a general area of focus and someone who describes specific ERP training or experience with OCD assessment and support.

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 see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. Headway helps you find therapists who focus on OCD and offer virtual or in-person appointments. Nationally, Headway partners with a wide range of insurance plans, and you can enter your insurance details to confirm coverage for Albuquerque and your specific plan. You can compare bios, check availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
