Meet the Staff at Desert Sky Counseling Services, LLC

At Desert Sky Counseling Services, LLC in Las Cruces, New Mexico, we believe in client-centered therapy and encourage the client to feel empowered and in charge of his or her therapy. Every client is unique with individual physical and psychological needs. We will work with you in a holistic approach to guide you toward accomplishing your individual goals and achieving a sense of personal well-being. While our clinicians can prescribe medications, we believe that taking medication is a personal choice that is up to the client and should not be pushed upon anyone.
