Hi, I’m Micah, a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with a decade of overall healthcare experience across the lifespan—from pediatric care to hospice care. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, and mood disorders, and I believe care should feel like a real conversation—not a lecture.

You're an Asian man who desires authenticity, healing and transformation. My name is Samuel, and I help heart-centered, truth-seeking Asian men level up and become the best versions of themselves in their career, relationships and lives. Clients who work best with me have tried things like therapy, workshops, meditation, self-development, but haven't been able to crack the code on specific patterns that continue to sabotage one or two areas of their lives. After doing this for 15 years, I can confidently say that the work is simple, but not easy. It requires you to dive in, be vulnerable, and face things you haven't want to look at.

Frequently asked questions


Find the right therapist for you
Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Santa Fe
Searching for therapists in Santa Fe starts with finding care that fits your needs, goals, and preferences. You may want support for anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, trauma, or life transitions. As you compare therapists, look for listed specialties, therapy styles, and experience that match what you want to focus on. Bios can also show whether a therapist uses approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or acceptance and commitment therapy.
Santa Fe has a smaller local therapy market than larger metro areas, so virtual appointments can help expand your options beyond nearby offices. Some people prefer in-person sessions close to home or work, while others choose virtual care for schedule flexibility. As you narrow your search, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, session format, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading each profile before booking can help you understand the therapist’s communication style, approach, and areas of focus.
Therapy in Santa Fe 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 your first session. Headway helps you find therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, verify your benefits, and show estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book. You can browse therapists in Santa Fe, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
