“I am not what happened to me, I am what I choose to become.”  Carl Jung

Do you need mental health therapy? There are times we face problems in our lives which seem insurmountable. You may be experiencing panic attacks, post-traumatic stress disorder, depression, loneliness, grief, problems in caregiving, and perhaps an inability to stop gambling or using a substance…to name a handful of issues. Our lives can spiral out of control, or perhaps we feel we are stuck

It is important to understand that despite our circumstances we can have a quality of life.  Peopleworks is here to help! We bring mental health therapy to your doorstep.

We are a nonprofit agency specializing in mental wellness.  Cindy Anderson, MSW, LCSW, ICGC-I, Founder and Executive Director believes that we no longer need be subject to our past, and can embrace the present with a sense of contentment, and in right relationships with ourselves and others.

Our services are designed to help you get back on track with the life you were meant to live. We have skilled staff who care a lot about those we serve. Though there are often no quick fixes, our specially trained therapists can assist you.

Besides mental health therapy, we have additional programs which support you in your journey towards mental wellness.  We offer a Family Caregiver Support Group. Our Community Health Workers in Ruidoso/Mescalero can help point you toward resources which help your quality of life. Our Problem Gambling Program staff have expertise in gambling disorder and we have counseling sessions free of charge for gamblers OR their families.  We occasionally offer online classes on various topics but Money Management is a popular offering

 

We see persons aged 16 and older.  Our practice serves a variety of people, with a variety of mental health or substance abuse issues.

Are you on the fence about seeking mental health services? Do you think others may disapprove?  We are well aware of stigma against those with mental health and substance misuse and gambling problems.  We as an agency are committed to reducing this stigma – whether you experience stigma for yourself, or in others around you. 

Our mental health is sometimes more important than physical health.  Please consider taking the steps you need to feel better. Find a professional you can confide in.  You may be surprised to learn that many people are experiencing mental health issues! If you decide to pursue mental health therapy with Peopleworks, we want to support you in your journey.
