Michalle Harmer, NM LPCC CCMH0195661

As a licensed therapist serving communities across New Mexico, I bring over 15 years of dedicated experience supporting individuals through complex emotional landscapes. My practice centers on helping clients navigate challenging life experiences, with specialized expertise in treating depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, and self-esteem concerns. I utilize evidence-based modalities such as Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), EMDR, and Prolonged Exposure to support meaningful, lasting healing. TF-CBT is best targeted for age 10-17 while EMDR and Prolonged Exposure are best targeted for adults.

I provide compassionate, trauma-informed care tailored to the unique cultural, geographic, and social contexts of New Mexico’s diverse populations. I have experience working with adolescents, young adults, and adults across rural and urban communities, including individuals from multicultural, Indigenous, and Hispanic/Latinx backgrounds. My practice is inclusive and affirming of LGBTQIA+ individuals and sensitive to the needs of first-generation college students, caregivers, and professionals facing high levels of stress and burnout.

I specialize in supporting survivors of sexual assault and interpersonal violence, individuals navigating shame and guilt, and those working through personality and relationship dynamics. I also help young adults manage major life transitions, including college, career entry, and identity development, as well as clients coping with mood disorders, posttraumatic stress, and communication challenges within families and partnerships.
My therapeutic style emphasizes creating a safe, collaborative, and culturally responsive environment where clients feel seen, heard, and respected. Together, we explore your experiences, strengthen resilience, and cultivate meaningful personal growth. I am committed to walking alongside you, honoring your unique story, and supporting your emotional healing with empathy, integrity, and professional expertise.
