Clinical Supervisor & Mental Health Therapist
Joshua Everett, LCSW (they/them)
Who am I?
Hello, I’m Joshua (They/Them), I identify as Gender Queer, Polyamorous, Queer, and Kinky. I am from North Dakota and moved to New Mexico a few years ago now. When I step back and look at the common thread throughout my career and my life, I see a deep desire to build acceptance and care for myself and those around me. I also see a curious questioning of myself and the world around me as I build a path for my own life.
What is my approach?
I see healing and growth as a process of self-acceptance, exploration of our ever-evolving needs and values, building connection, and transforming how we have survived in this world into beautiful new ways to thrive in the world we co-create with those around us. Through curious and compassionate exploration of safety strategies (the way we learned to protect ourselves from others, ourselves, and our experiences) and mindfully holding our emotions and experiences we find a path forward. I bring cognitive, attachment, systemic, humanist, queer, feminist, and experiential approaches to therapy to collaboratively work with people as they navigate life.
What is my focus for my work?
The focus of my work has been creating safe spaces for oppressed individuals and couples to seek care as they face challenges in their life. My work aims to serve oppressed peoples. This includes people who identify as LGBTQIA2+, Kinky or other Alternative sexualities, Non-monogamous, BIPOC, Cultural minorities, and people who generally want to build their own path in life.

Mental Health Therapist
Tia Hunter, MA, LMHC (she/her)
I practice person-centered counseling through social justice and multicultural lenses as I listen to the intersections of each client’s cultural background and life experience. I see clients from any and all backgrounds, ages 15+, and I love helping members of minority, marginalized, and divergent communities feel seen and heard. A few things to know about me are that I’m LGBTQIA+ affirming, ethical non-monogamy friendly, and a supporter/member of the healthy at any size community. I have a special passion for counseling clients with intergenerational trauma, chronic illnesses, hidden disabilities, and cult/traumatic commune recovery.
Just as no two clients are the same, my therapeutic approaches vary from client to client to ensure your sessions are just as unique. I frequently incorporate Narrative, Acceptance and Commitment, CBT+ mindfulness, and Existential therapies as needed. I’m also trained in Brainspotting to provide another therapeutic outlet for those living with trauma, dissociation, compulsive behaviors, anxiety, and chronic pain. Depending on client preference, I also incorporate yoga into sessions for anyone who wants to improve their mind-body connection. If you’re ready to take the next step, I’m happy to work with you on creating your story.

Mental Health Therapist
Asa Gelburd, MA, LMHC (they/them)
I love working with the LGBTQIA+ community, disabled and neurodivergent folks, as well as other marginalized identities. I personally believe that you are the expert of your own lived experiences and it would be an honor to work with you while offering you a safe space to work on your desired goals and well being.
I use an integrative approach to counseling depending on the client’s individual needs. I use a wide range of modalities including a client-centered approach, attachment therapy, and an intersectional feminist lens. I offer an empathetic space for clients to be seen and heard while providing guidance towards exploration, understanding and growth.
I believe that everyone has the capacity to change and grow. I also believe that healing isn't linear and that sometimes we need to be seen and heard in order to allow parts of ourselves to heal. Taking time to invest in yourself and your wellbeing can be a radical act.

Mental Health Therapist
TJ Dudley, MA, LMHC (TJ/he/him)
One of my divine missions in life is to use my learned and lived experiences to help others discover their authentic selves, and build their confidence in who they are, while uprooting any negative core beliefs planted by others. Throughout my childhood and early adulthood, I struggled with being my authentic self. I walked through life trying to please others, trying to fit into societal norms, and trying to shrink myself to make others comfortable around me. By doing all these things, along with experiencing trauma, my inner being suffered in silence. Through my own personal healing journey, I now believe that being your true authentic self is one of the best ways to honor yourself and the Universe. Additionally, I also learned that my thoughts, my feelings, and my voice matter, and so do yours.
I aspire to help others through their healing journey by creating a safe space for them to process past traumas, connecting behavior and thought patterns that are impeding on their healing process, offering different perspectives to help them gain valuable insights, and providing them with helpful tools for coping during triggering and stressful situations. I am a strong advocate for the underdogs of society and the black sheep of families, as well as anyone who has ever felt inadequate or not good enough. And I strive to promote mental wellness, normalize mental health, and be a positive beacon of light and hope in the world.

Mental Health Therapist
Tanya Marthaller-Duran, MA, LMHC (she/her)
I’m Tanya (she/her) I am a therapist who is honored to walk beside you on your journey of healing and becoming your authentic self. I am passionate about working with the LGBTQIA+ community and being a supportive ally for the individuals I serve. Everyone needs a cheerleader! I have experience working with transgender/gender non-conforming youth and their families. I understand what it means to walk alongside a family member as they journey through transition and the difference it makes when they have the support and love of others. I also understand conflicts can happen in families when values and beliefs no longer align. I have experience working with parents and teaching nurturing parenting skills and helping parents learn to energize the positive in their children.
I utilize many different approaches to therapy that include TF-CBT, Emotion-Focused Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy. I offer a non-judgmental, open and safe space for you to explore, learn and grow and discover who you are and experience healing within.
I believe we are all different and have unique experiences, beliefs, values, and morals; because of this we can learn from each other and see the world through another’s eyes. I believe these differences are a path to healing if we would all just stop and listen with an open mind and an open heart.
I look forward to meeting you and being a part of your journey.
