Did you know that you are full of INFINITE POSSIBILITIES!! I am very curious to find out what they are—aren’t you? I am so grateful that you have taken the time to begin your journey of health and wellness. I would very much like to walk that path with you. Let me tell you who I am, professionally. My name is Debra Benalli, but I go by Deb. New Mexico has been home to me since 2000 and I have a very deep love for the cultures and the people of my state. I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor and a Licensed Substance Abuse Counselor. I have worked in the mental health and addiction areas for over 25 years. I also hold endorsements from the National Alliance for Infant Mental Health as an Infant Family Specialist and Early Childhood Family Specialist. My professional journey has also given me the opportunity to spend time working with different tribal communities-which has enriched my practice immensely and given me a deep understanding regarding traditional healing which has been an honor and blessing to be a part of. I believe that healing comes to us in a variety of ways and you owe it to yourself to explore all areas for a holistic approach—physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually.
My approach to walking a path of wellness with you and building that trusting relationship starts with truly listening , showing compassion, accepting you for where you are—and remaining curious . Life presents challenges that can cause you to become dysregulated—depressed or anxious, angry or unsettled. Does your world , sometimes feel sideway, are relationships difficult? Do you struggle with physical health issues, always easily angered or frustrated? You may be facing some complex trauma issues that cause you to constantly worry—nagging thoughts that cause confusion or fatigue. Let’ s begin to work through these issues together. Can we be curious about what change might look like—mind, body and spirit. You deserve to find wellness, your story and your truth should be told and held with dignity as you walk a path of healing.
I use a variety of evidence-based techniques to help you with your walk on your wellness journey. Together, you will decide what works for you! I am trained in Sand Tray, CBT-TF, DBT, mindfulness meditation and I incorporate art, poetry, writing, psychodrama and movement into therapy–healing comes in all forms—let’s explore and be curious together to see what will help to move you on a healing path and help to change the direction and dialogue of your life story—patterns can be broken and change can occur.
I provide services to all ages—early childhood, adolescents and adults—and all configurations of couples and families and sexual identity/orientation within a safe space for reflection and growth and reestablishing balance . Let’s walk this journey together!
EVERYDAY YOU ARE FULL OF INFINITE POSSIBILITIES!!
