I am a licensed mental health therapist with a background in social work. I have a master's in clinical social work from the University of Wisconsin, Green Bay. I have experience working in outpatient therapy and medical settings, which has shaped my grounded and integrative approach to care. I work with adults and children navigating anxiety, life transitions, relationship challenges, professional stress, grief, and patterns that feel difficult to shift. I also support individuals experiencing self-doubt, boundary concerns, emotional overwhelm, and relational dynamics that leave them feeling unseen or unheard.

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 Mental Health Therapist in Las Cruces, NM

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.
