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.

I believe that optimal mental health is achieved through an ongoing, multi-pronged approach. As a psychiatric nurse practitioner I am well trained in the art and science of prescribing medications to improve mental health symptoms. I also encourage adjunctive treatment modalities such as CBT. Empowering patients to care for themselves is part of my goal. I embrace opportunities to help my patients gain greater personal insight, because when you can see yourself, you can change yourself.

Therapist

Virtual • Albuquerque, NM


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.
