Grief counselors and therapists in New Mexico

Seeking help isn't always easy, and I believe finding the right provider should feel like a good fit, not just another appointment. As a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP), my goal is to create a space where you can speak openly, feel genuinely heard, and know that we're working together as a team.

I enjoy caring for individuals across the lifespan, including children, adolescents, adults, and older adults. I treat anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, trauma-related concerns, OCD, insomnia, and other mental health challenges. I also help people navigate grief, life transitions, caregiver stress, and the emotional impact that chronic medical conditions can have on everyday life.

I don't believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. Every person has a different story, and treatment should reflect that. Whether we're discussing medication, coping strategies, or lifestyle changes, I want you to feel informed, comfortable asking questions, and involved in every decision we make.

My hope is that you leave each appointment feeling understood, supported, and with a clear plan for moving forward.

My name is Carolina. I've been a therapist for nearly 9 years in NM.

Hello. My name is Stephanie. I have been in healthcare and mental health for 35 years, 10 years in nursing, and 25 in counseling and therapy. I have been a high-risk labor and delivery nurse, a school district health director, an at-risk program developer, and a mental health counselor/therapist for children and adolescents with emotional, behavioral, and special needs and their parents. I now work primarily with an adult population. My experience has given me a broad understanding of people dealing with difficult issues and stressors in their lives. I am experienced in helping individuals with ADHD, change, adjustment, esteem, anxiety, trauma, and depression, and parenting. I am kind, gentle, empathetic, positive, funny and a good listener. I am also serious, thoughtful, holistic, client-centered, and solution-focused. My goal as a therapist is to help you find solutions to the Issues (problems) that have brought you to counseling. I want to help guide you through the process of determining the relevant issues, your wants and needs, and identifying skills and techniques to build solutions that can continue to serve you through, not only the immediate problem, but throughout life as well. My goal is to empower you through life's challenges, transitions and growth.

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.

With an academic background in women’s studies, psychology and family systemic processes, I am able to provide deep insight into how individuals, children, couples, families, and young adults navigate all relationships and societal expectations. This allows clients to succeed in self-discovery and grow into better functioning, creating more harmony within life's roles.

Taking the first step toward therapy can feel difficult, but you don’t have to navigate challenging seasons alone. I’m a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor with over a decade of experience supporting adolescents and adults through anxiety, depression, ADHD, grief and loss, life transitions, and relationship and family concerns.

As a Certified Grief Educator, I have a particular passion for helping people navigate grief and loss. I understand that grief is not linear and that everyone experiences loss differently. Together, we can create a supportive, compassionate space where you can process your emotions, make sense of your experiences, and find ways to move forward while honoring the people and relationships you’ve lost.

My approach is warm, collaborative, and individualized. I use evidence-based strategies, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and DBT-informed coping skills, along with practical tools you can use in everyday life. We may also focus on emotional regulation, communication, boundaries, coping strategies, and building confidence.

Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed by anxiety or depression, adjusting to a major life transition, working through relationship concerns, or trying to find your way through grief, therapy can provide a place to feel heard, supported, and understood. I would be honored to support you along the way.

I am a Clinical Mental Health Therapist with over 16 years of experience working with children, adolescents, adults and families in community mental health, educational and private practice settings. Prior to that, I spent 20 years in pastoral ministry. I completed my Masters in Counseling Psychology in 2008 from Northwestern Oklahoma State University, and soon after moved to Northwest New Mexico/Southwest Colorado. My professional experience includes: Administrator of a Residential Treatment Center, Clinical Administrator for Children's Behavioral Health, Student Assistance Coordinator for a school district, Visiting Professor at a School of Social Work, Private Practice, Outpatient Clinical Manager, Health Services Coordinator for a school district, and Integrated Behavioral Health Provider in a family medical practice setting. In addition to working with high risk/high needs children and adolescents, I work primarily with trauma as well as anxiety and depression. I also serve as a Certified First Responder Counselor.

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.
