Sabrina Mayes, LCSW

Sabrina Mayes is a New Mexico Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with eight years of practice experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and anger, and addresses relationship and family concerns including parenting and grief. She also supports people coping with depression, low self-esteem, and ADHD-related struggles.

Her style is practical and direct. She treats people as the experts on their lives and helps them build on strengths they already have. Sessions focus on clear skills and steps to manage emotions, reduce harmful patterns, and handle difficult interactions at home.

Sabrina uses proven methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy alongside mindfulness and solution-focused techniques. She also draws on motivational interviewing when people are working through substance use and behavior change. Those approaches guide what happens session to session - practice, feedback, and small goal-setting.

People often come in with family and parenting stress, conflict with loved ones, or struggles after loss. Sabrina helps break larger problems into manageable tasks. She works on communication skills, setting boundaries, coping with anger, and reducing reliance on drugs or alcohol.

Sessions are straightforward and goal-oriented. She asks about day-to-day routines, what gets in the way, and which strengths can be used. Then she and the client choose clear, practical steps to try between sessions.
