I’m Mary, a nurse practitioner with nearly 40 years of experience in healthcare, and caring for people across the lifespan has been at the heart of my work from the beginning. My journey has included women’s health and midwifery, emergency care, and ultimately psychiatric mental health, shaped by a deep belief that no one should have to struggle alone. Personal loss and witnessing gaps in mental health care strengthened my commitment to helping people before pain becomes overwhelming. Outside of work, I enjoy starting my mornings with quiet reflection, going on long-distance cycling adventures, and relaxing with some friendly Xbox competition alongside my husband and friends.
Hi I'm Eleanor! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in California and New Mexico. I am passionate about empowering people to build self-trust and self-acceptance. Most of my clients come to therapy because they want to make a change or cope with a change that they did not choose.
As a person-centered therapist, I energize your strengths so you can identify the solutions. I specialize in children and teens who have experienced trauma and the families that support them. I'm here to walk with you, remind you of your greatness, and witness your growth. Your experience is uniquely yours!
With over twenty-seven years of diverse nursing experience, particularly in Emergency Room and Mental Health settings, such as St. Elizabeth Hospital, Providence Hospital, and the Psychiatric Institute of Washington. These positions have equipped me with a comprehensive understanding of both clinical excellence and operational efficiency.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in New Mexico
Searching for therapists in New Mexico starts with finding someone whose training fits what you want to address. Across urban and rural parts of the state, available therapists and counseling options can vary, so it helps to look for clear experience with concerns like anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, or life transitions. As you compare New Mexico therapists, review the specialties and approaches listed in each profile, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma-informed care, or support for specific life stages.
Practical fit matters, too. Whether you live in Albuquerque, Santa Fe, Las Cruces, or another part of New Mexico, consider whether in-person sessions or virtual appointments work better for your schedule and location. You can also narrow your search by appointment availability, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading therapist bios before booking can help you understand communication style, session structure, and what the therapist focuses on in care.
The cost of mental health care in New Mexico varies, and using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for New Mexico counseling and therapy options by insurance, availability, specialty, and appointment format. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, and you can enter your insurance details to see estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book — making it easier to find a therapist who matches your needs, accepts your plan, and is ready to take new clients.
