Teresita is a trauma-informed therapist who meets you exactly where you are. As a Genízara and Nuevomexicana, she brings a culturally responsive lens to your care, taking time to understand the relationships, identities, and experiences that shape your story. She looks at the whole picture, the personal, cultural, historical, and environment also you feel respected, empowered, and supported every step of the way.

Teresita studied film and dance at the College of Santa Fe and earned her MSW from New Mexico Highlands University. Storytelling has always been part of who she is, and it shows up in how she helps you make sense of your experiences and build resilience along the way. Outside the therapy room, you’ll find her listening to songbirds, taking photos, celebrating her culture, and exploring both city streets and open landscapes.
