With a degree in Social Work from New Mexico Highlands University, Jennifer Harrison-Sanchez is a passionate professional dedicated to serving her community. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), licensed spiritual counselor, and shamanic practitioner, Jennifer brings a unique and holistic perspective to her practice. She is deeply experienced in guiding individuals through life transitions, with a specific focus on those struggling with challenging dynamics such as addictions, co-dependency, enmeshment, PTSD, Complex PTSD, and narcissistic abuse.
My specialty & love are helping individuals at transition points of their lives, with a focus from Adolescence to Mid-life and beyond. These are times of dealing with many changes in one's life. These changes may include family, friends, and your role in community. This is also a time when we are surrounded with "Transition Myths" i.e.; How we should be feeling, acting and thinking. Some of these are Memory Loss, Depression, Physical Fitness, Sexuality. My goals are to educate and separate myth from fact while helping YOU ease life's transitions so YOU can continue YOUR life with new hopes, dreams, respect and dignity.
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.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Anxiety Therapist in Rio Rancho, NM
Finding therapists in Rio Rancho starts with knowing what kind of support you want. You may be looking for therapy in Rio Rancho for anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, work stress, or a major life change. As you compare counselors in Rio Rancho, look for training and listed specialties that match your needs. Provider bios can also show whether a therapist uses approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma-informed care, or other methods that fit what you want from sessions.
Rio Rancho is a smaller city, so local in-person options may be more limited than in larger New Mexico markets. Virtual therapy can expand your search to licensed New Mexico therapists while still letting you filter for schedule, specialty, and personal fit. Some people prefer a nearby office, while others value virtual appointments that fit around work, school, or caregiving. Before booking, review each therapist’s profile for availability, session format, communication style, and whether they offer a free phone consultation.
Therapy in Rio Rancho can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make care easier to plan for. Headway helps you find therapists who accept your plan, see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and choose from therapists who are accepting new patients. You can browse profiles, compare fit, and book directly when you’re ready.
