Hi, I’m Mariam Opafunso, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I earned my Master of Science in Nursing from Ohio University and have experience working in both inpatient and outpatient behavioral health settings. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, and other mood-related concerns, as well as eating-related conditions in adolescents and adults.
Outside of my professional role, I value balance and growth, and I show up fully for the people I serve. I understand that seeking help can feel overwhelming, and I create a space where you feel comfortable, respected, and truly heard.
Hi, I’m Bianca Mitchell, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 14 years of nursing experience and specialized training in diagnosing and treating anxiety, depression, mood disorders, and trauma-related conditions in adolescents and adults.
I provide thoughtful, evidence-based medication management with a collaborative approach. I believe treatment works best when you feel heard, respected, and actively involved in your care. Whether you're navigating stress, life transitions, focus challenges, or long-standing mental health concerns, my goal is to create a safe and supportive space where we can work together toward stability and growth.
I have extensive experience in telepsychiatry and high-volume clinical settings, which has strengthened my ability to quickly identify patterns, tailor treatment plans, and provide efficient, compassionate care. I also incorporate elements of supportive therapy and cognitive-behavioral strategies during visits when appropriate.
My approach is direct, structured, and patient-centered. I value clarity, accountability, and open communication. If you're ready to take the next step toward feeling better and functioning at your best, I look forward to working with you.
Hi, I'm Adaobi — a Psychiatric–Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over a decade of experience in nursing and outpatient mental health care.
If you're looking for someone who will truly listen, you're in the right place. My clients often tell me that what they value most is feeling heard — and that's exactly where I start. Whether you're dealing with depression, anxiety, ADHD, bipolar disorder, PTSD, or something you can't quite name yet, I'm here to help you make sense of it without judgment.
I am passionate about helping people. There is no judgement, only acceptance of whatever circumstance you find yourself in. I listen and try to help with faulty thinking patterns. I am very accepting. About me: I love to garden, I love cats and I am a deeply spiritual woman.
With a degree in Social Work from New Mexico Highlands University, Jennifer Harrison-Sanchez is a passionate professional dedicated to serving her community. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), licensed spiritual counselor, and shamanic practitioner, Jennifer brings a unique and holistic perspective to her practice. She is deeply experienced in guiding individuals through life transitions, with a specific focus on those struggling with challenging dynamics such as addictions, co-dependency, enmeshment, PTSD, Complex PTSD, and narcissistic abuse.
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.
If you're overwhelmed or seeking change, I'm here to help. Together we'll explore your patterns, reconnect with who you are, and build a personalized toolbox for long-term growth. My approach is warm, grounded, and centered on your own unique story.

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.
