I'm a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) in New Mexico with 36 years of experience. I specialize in addiction and dual diagnosis — including porn addiction, gambling, and the complex emotional layers that come with each. My practice is fully virtual, so I work with you from the comfort of wherever you feel most at ease. I've also lived through my own profound experience with disability and recovery, and that journey has given me a deeper, more personal understanding of what it means to face suffering, adapt, and keep going.
Hi, I’m Akisha Toussaint, a board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner.
Wellness isn't just about managing symptoms—it’s about feeling like yourself again. If you're dealing with anxiety, depression, ADHD, sleep issues, or just feeling off balance, you deserve support that addresses every part of your health—mind and body.
I work to get to know my client's, to understand where they are coming from, and to provide feedback with a goal to promote healing and positive change. I draw on my 37 years of work in this counseling, and multiple levels of education.
A very warm hello! I’m so glad to meet you, and I look forward to teaching you fascinating techniques to help you accomplish your counseling goals. Psychology is my passion, and for 25 years, I’ve worked to learn the most effective therapies. I use the latest in Neuro Psycho therapy along with Cognitive Behavioral therapy, EMDR, and other therapies to help my Clients. As a ‘mature’ woman, I have plenty of real life experience to back up professional training, as such, I specialize in all areas of Women’s issues.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Las Cruces
Searching for therapists in Las Cruces starts with finding someone whose experience matches what you want help with. Therapists may support people living with anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, relationship challenges, life transitions, and work stress. As you compare options, look for specialties, therapy styles, and listed experience that align with your needs. A therapist’s bio can help you understand their approach, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, or support for couples and families.
In a smaller city like Las Cruces, the number of nearby office locations may be more limited than in larger metro areas. Virtual sessions can expand your options while still connecting you with a therapist licensed in New Mexico. You may also want to compare appointment times, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, whether they offer a free phone consultation, and how their profile describes the session structure. These details can help you choose between counseling in Las Cruces, virtual therapy, or a mix of both.
Therapy in Las Cruces 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 find therapists who match your needs, and you can enter your insurance details to check available coverage and estimated costs before booking. You can review therapist bios, see estimated out-of-pocket costs after entering your insurance, and book directly when you’re ready.
