Cecilia Chavez, MA, LMHC - Therapist

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in New Mexico. I received my bachelor’s degree in psychology from the University of New Mexico and a master's degree in mental health counseling from New Mexico Highlands University. I work under the group practice of Patricia Martinez Burr, PhD, LPCC, NCC and am supervised under Cynthia Guzman, PhD, MSCP.

I provide a gentle and compassionate approach to therapy, which has helped many individuals overcome a range of emotional, behavioral, and mental health challenges. My areas of expertise include anxiety, ADHD, trauma, self-esteem issues, boundaries, and relationship difficulties.

One of my greatest strengths as a therapist is my ability to create a safe and non-judgmental space for my clients. I understand that therapy can be intimidating for many people and I work hard to build trust and rapport with my clients to make the process more comfortable.

In our therapy sessions, I utilize a variety of evidence-based modalities, including cognitive-behavioral therapy, and psychoeducation. I also provide you with tools so that you can practice what you learned in therapy and implement it outside of therapy. I tailor my approach to meet the unique needs and preferences of each of my clients. Hence, my client centered approach.

I look forward to working with you and supporting you on your journey of healing.
