Meet Jann - Your Compassionate Partner in Healing

With a rich background as a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Therapist in New Mexico since 2017, Jann is dedicated to guiding individuals through their unique journeys towards mental wellness. A proud graduate of New Mexico Highlands University, she holds undergraduate degrees in Psychology and a Master's Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling.

Jann brings a wealth of experience from both in-patient and outpatient settings, effectively working with adolescents, adults, couples, and families. She firmly believes that counseling is not a one-size-fits-all endeavor. Each client’s path is unique, and Jann tailors her therapeutic approach to meet individual needs, ensuring a highly personalized, client-centered experience.

Her extensive training encompasses a variety of therapeutic modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Reconsolidation of Traumatic Memories (RTM), Mindfulness-Based Somatic Emotional Processing (MBSEP), and trauma-focused therapy. Jann is also skilled in group and family therapy, substance abuse counseling, as well as motivational interviewing and the principles of Polyvagal Theory.

At the heart of Jann's practice is the belief that a strong therapist-client relationship is crucial for effective therapy. She sees the therapeutic alliance as a vital foundation for achieving positive outcomes. Whether you’re navigating a mental health diagnosis, relationship challenges, parenting hurdles, or seeking personal growth, Jann is here to help you explore and uncover the roots of your concerns.

Jann incorporates humor and light-heartedness into her sessions, acknowledging the humanity of the therapeutic space. She believes that laughter can coexist with the process of healing, creating a comfortable environment for clients to explore their thoughts and emotions.

If you’re ready to embark on a journey of self-discovery and healing, Jann is eager to work alongside you. Together, you can make meaningful strides towards the life you envision.

Compassionate Therapy for Children, Adolescents, and Families

As an experienced therapist, I specialize in supporting children, adolescents, and families through life's challenges. Whether your child is struggling with anxiety, self-esteem, behavioral issues, or school-related stress, I am here to help guide them toward positive change. I also work closely with parents, offering personalized strategies to strengthen family relationships and support your child's emotional and developmental needs.

I understand the unique challenges children face, from managing big emotions and peer difficulties to navigating tricky transitions. My approach is rooted in creating a safe, trusting space where your child can feel heard and understood, empowering them to work through their challenges with confidence.

Collaboration with parents is a cornerstone of my practice. I believe that parents are the most important experts in their children’s lives, and together, we will develop strategies to support your child’s growth and well-being. Whether it's improving communication, addressing behavior patterns, or navigating tough moments, I am here to help your family build a strong foundation for lasting success and happiness.

Let’s work together to help your child thrive, not just today, but for a brighter future.

Are you ready to break free from what's holding you back? To step into a life where you feel truly empowered and connected?

I'm Dr. Sulema Perales, and I believe in the power of authentic connection. I create a safe and sacred space where you can explore your inner world, heal from past wounds, and build a brighter future.

My approach is rooted in compassion and mindfulness, blending evidence-based practices like MBCT and CBT with the holistic benefits of yoga and mindfulness mentorship. I work with individuals of all ages, helping them navigate challenges with creativity, resilience, and a touch of joy. Because healing shouldn't be a burden – it should be a journey of self-discovery and growth.

If you're seeking a therapist who will walk alongside you with empathy and understanding, I invite you to reach out. Let's begin your healing journey together.

Hello, I'm Rachel. I was born and raised right here in Albuquerque, and I'm deeply connected to this community. My journey to becoming a clinical mental health counselor, with my degree from New Mexico Highlands University, was a second career, a calling I discovered later in life. That's because I truly believe in the power of hope and healing, even amidst life's toughest challenges.

I'm genuinely interested in your unique story. I understand that your physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being are all interconnected, and that's essential to living a joyful life. I strive to create a safe, respectful space where you can explore your past, navigate current difficulties, and discover your own inner wisdom and solutions.

Outside of my practice, you'll find me enjoying the simple things: cooking and baking, spending time outdoors, and cherishing moments with my family, friends, and especially my beloved dogs. I believe in the importance of balance and finding joy in everyday life, and I bring that perspective into my work with you. I look forward to working with you.
