Our counselors in Albuquerque, NM offer child therapy

I am a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner (PMHNP) with 8 years of experience supporting individuals across a wide range of emotional and behavioral concerns. I work with clients experiencing mood disorders, anxiety, trauma, personality disorders, and significant life transitions. Many clients come to me feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected, and I provide a compassionate, nonjudgmental space to help them gain clarity, stability, and a path forward.

I earned my Master of Science in nursing from Walden University. My approach integrates evidence-based medication management with a collaborative, trauma-informed, culturally sensitive, and holistic perspective. I tailor treatment to each individual’s unique needs and goals while prioritizing safety, understanding, and empowerment throughout care.

Seeking support can feel overwhelming, but you do not have to navigate these challenges alone. I am here to walk alongside you with compassion, patience, and respect. Together, we will work toward relief from symptoms, improved coping skills, and meaningful, lasting change when you are ready to begin.

As a therapist, I focus on building relationships grounded in trust, empathy, and collaboration. I strive to create a safe environment where clients can strengthen coping skills and heal from past trauma. I am a licensed clinical social worker with over 30 years of experience working with children, youth, and young adults facing anxiety, depression, PTSD, ADHD, autism, and other developmental disabilities. My experience includes roles as a behavioral specialist, therapist, and school social worker. 

I use a person-centered approach while incorporating cognitive-behavioral techniques. As a licensed trauma specialist, I understand our past experiences can impact our present—and I believe the brain continues to grow and adapt, making healing possible. Although the work can be challenging, we will build the tools and resilience needed for healing together. 

I believe growth, self-compassion, and healing matter more than perfection. I look forward to working with you as you take meaningful steps toward healing and growth. Reaching out for support can be difficult, but you've already taken the first step. I invite you to schedule a time for us to connect and determine whether I am the right fit for your journey.

Lance Pritchard is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 10 years of experience in the mental health field. Lance is passionate about helping people identify and conquer the obstacles that stand in the way of them achieving the wellness and stability that they are striving for. He specializes in addictions, anxiety, depression, grief, and stress. After working in substance abuse treatment facilities for most of his career, Lance has accumulated a lot of experience working with folks struggling with addictions and the associated mood, relational, and other issues that frequently go along with that.

Lance completed his Master of Science (MS) in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Southern Adventist University in beautiful Collegedale, TN. He has a great deal of experience using behavioral interventions like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), as well as integrating motivational interviewing and some solution-focused ideas into his therapeutic work. Lance brings a combination of real-world experience and technical knowledge to the table in a way that helps his clients feel heard, understood, and cared for. He emphasizes creating lasting change through identifying and changing negative beliefs that a client may have about themselves, the world around them, and their own ability to interact with that environment.

Lance will work with you to amend impaired thinking, change negative behaviors, and to develop a meaningful spiritual connection with a higher power of your own understanding. Maintaining a sense of wellness or making lasting positive change in your life is difficult even when things are going well around you. When you consider the amount of turmoil and chaos present in our society today, it is causing people who would normally be very functional and stable to struggle and falter under the pressure. This environmental stress also hurts those who may already be struggling with mental health or addiction issues, causing these conditions to worsen. This is nothing to be ashamed of, but also not something to be ignored. Lance doesn't have any magical answers, and doesn't promise that things will suddenly get easier; but he has the experience, empathy, and compassion to help you on the next leg of your journey to wellness. If you are looking for someone to empathetically walk with you through your current struggles, and to help you navigate upcoming hurdles as well, you are welcome to schedule an appointment with Lance today!

I am a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner (PMHNP) with 15+ years of nursing experience supporting clients through anxiety, depression, trauma, and life stressors. I work with teens and adults, and my approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in creating a safe, culturally sensitive space where you feel heard, supported, and empowered to work toward your goals. I focus on helping clients build stability and confidence.

I earned my master’s degree in nursing from Walden University. My approach includes evidence-based medication management along with cognitive behavioral strategies, dialectical behavior skills, and a calm, patient-centered style to guide treatment.

Reaching out for support is a brave step, and you deserve care that feels safe, steady, and compassionate. I’m here to listen, guide, and walk with you as you move toward healing. When you’re ready, I would be honored to support you on your path forward.

I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor with experience helping individuals on their path to healing. My career began living in a tent and working as a lay therapist at an outdoor psychiatric hospital for adolescents. This experience, combined with growing up in a rural area during a time of family illness and the early loss of both my mother and father, deeply informs the perspective I bring to my work today. I typically work with individuals and families navigating trauma and addiction, women processing the grief of being Motherless Daughters, and those in the aging process seeking to integrate a lifetime of experience.

My style is supportive, relational, and grounded, born from years of witnessing the resilience of the human spirit. Whether you need structured CBT skills, Internal Family Systems (IFS) work, or deep grief processing, I provide a warm, intuitive space to co-create your wellness plan. I am passionate about helping you reclaim a sense of hope and possibility. 

I approach my practice with curiosity and a genuine love for people (and dogs). Healing is a profound and rewarding labor, and it would be my privilege to support you through it. You deserve a space where you can finally be heard without judgment. If you are ready to bridge the gap between where you are and where you want to be, I welcome you to reach out.

I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with 12 years of experience supporting individuals navigating anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, borderline personality disorder, trauma, anger, life transitions, substance use concerns, neurodivergence, and LGBTQ+ issues. I work with adults from diverse backgrounds and bring a creative, inclusive lens to therapy that honors each client’s unique experiences and strengths.

I earned my master’s degree in social work from New Mexico State University. My approach is person-centered, solution-focused, strength-based, and trauma-informed. I incorporate CBT, DBT skills, psychodynamic techniques, and somatic work to help clients better understand their thoughts, emotions, and nervous system responses.

My goal is to create a space where you feel heard, affirmed, and safe as you move through growth and healing. Together, we will build on your strengths, develop practical tools, and identify meaningful steps forward. I invite you to take the next step and schedule an appointment so we can begin this work together.

Christine Fatherree, LCSW, brings over 25 years of experience in the mental health field, working in a variety of roles to support adult clients seeking growth, healing, and clarity. She is deeply committed to helping individuals explore their concerns and make meaningful changes in their lives.

Christine works with adults experiencing depression, grief, life transitions, and trauma (though not military-related trauma). She understands that beginning therapy often starts with important questions—and that exploring those questions can lead to real transformation. Her therapeutic approach is tailored to each client’s needs, drawing from a range of evidence-based practices including traditional Talk Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing

(EMDR). This flexible approach allows Christine to offer personalized support that meets you where you are.

Christine is genuinely curious about your story and provides a safe, non-judgmental space to explore both your inner world and life circumstances. While therapy can be challenging, it can also bring moments of insight, relief, and even humor.

If you’re ready to begin the process of change, Christine is here to support you. Schedule an appointment when you’re ready to take the next step.
