Welcome to online therapy! *Please note: At this time, I am offering asynchronous communication via text messaging and live chat services only. If you’d prefer other modalities (live phone and/or video call), that is understandable. I encourage you to explore BetterHelp's network of available licensed counselors that will match your preference. I honor you for taking the time to be here! I know that you are brave because you’re willing to look more closely at yourself. I’m here to be with you through life’s challenges AND successes. If you're looking to find meaning, joy and peace in the present and develop strength-based strategies for the future, look no further! My name is Mandy Lopez Azimy. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the State of New Mexico. I specialize in parenting issues, attachment disruptions, life transitions, healthy boundaries, relationship issues, self esteem, depression and anxiety. I believe that in order to show up for life and all it's challenges, we must be able to regulate our nervous system, calm our mind, and trust our inner wisdom to give us clear direction. My approach to treatment is to help you witness yourself through the lens of love, acceptance, and compassion. Seeing yourself in this new way will offer huge relief and the opportunity to go deeper in your healing. Interventions are focused in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), Attachment-Based Therapy, and Internal Family Systems (IFS) techniques. I bring a clarifying, energizing, and intuitive presence to my sessions. I hold a safe space through non-judgment in order to encourage self-expression. We will work together to illuminate and resolve any stories, beliefs, thoughts, and unresolved emotions that may unconsciously hinder personal growth. Whether you're having a moment of minor overwhelm or find yourself in a state of panic, you can turn to this platform for solutions and support. "You are the guru, learn to trust the guidance within you." -Gabrielle Bernstein

Your Authentic Self, Your Strongest Self: Therapy Tailored in a Safe, Supportive Space Hello! I'm Dr. Andrew Mendonsa, a clinical psychologist and therapist with 20+ years of experience helping folks like you navigate life's complexities and embrace their true potential and authentic self. I specialize in working with LGBTQIA+ individuals, those struggling with problematic sexual behavior, kink/alt lifestyle/polyamory-focused issues, and anyone seeking a male therapist's perspective. My journey through the worlds of mental health and addiction – from community mental health and marginalized groups, to the criminal justice system, to high wealth clients and corporate boardrooms – has equipped me with a deep understanding of the challenges clients, especially men and those from specialized populations, face today. I've helped countless individuals overcome shame, guilt, depression, anxiety, stress, grief, and the unique pressures of modern life. As an LGBTQIA+ affirming therapist, I offer a safe and judgment-free space to explore your identity, gender, relationships, sexual expression, and sexuality. Whether you're questioning, coming out, or navigating the unique stressors of the LGBTQIA+, kink, alt-pop, or straight communities, I'm here to support you on your journey! For those grappling with problematic sexual behavior that is causing issues with your work, relationships, finance, or other areas, I provide a compassionate and non-judgmental approach to recovery. I will not tell you to stop what you are doing or else, instead we will identify what is motivating your behavior and desire to change. Knowing these, we can then develop a tailored treatment plan and achievable goals. Together, we'll address the underlying issues, develop healthy coping mechanisms, and rebuild a fulfilling life free from shame, guilt, and compulsive behaviors. My extensive background working with high-achieving individuals in business and academia makes me uniquely equipped to understand the pressures of professional life. If you're struggling with work-related stress, burnout, or career transitions, I can offer practical strategies for success and well-being. I have owned, sold, and managed companies and worked in high levels within the public sector. My approach to therapy is collaborative, goal-oriented, and results-driven. I believe therapy should be a catalyst for change, not a lifelong commitment. Think of it like a tune-up for your mind – we'll get you back on track and running smoothly. You wouldn't leave your car in the shop forever, would you? So why force yourself into a lifetime of therapy? I invite you to visit my website, www.AndrewMendonsa.com, to learn more about me and my approach. Let's work together to build a life that is authentic, fulfilling, and true to you.
