BEHAVIORAL HEALTH COUNSELING FOR SENIORS, ADULTS, TEENS & CHILDREN
As a nonprofit, PeopleWorks’ primary focus is providing behavioral health counseling and related services to vulnerable older adults. In addition, we offer counseling services to adults youth, and children. PeopleWorks-NM is based in Rio Rancho, NM and serves the greater Albuquerque metro area.
Most of us have those moments in our lives when we feel like we cannot cope with the burden of our increasing problems, conflicts and health issues. It's natural to feel helpless or even want to give up. But all of us have the power to overcome these challenges and achieve a happier and more fulfilling life.
We can help if you are:
Feeling lonely, discouraged, chronically depressed or sad
Always feeling worried or anxious
Struggling with low self-esteem
Experiencing overwhelming grief
Having conflicts or misunderstandings with those closest to you
Coping with a loved one who is suffering from mental illness
Needing guidance to care for aging parents, relatives, friends
Wondering about addictions (alcohol, medications, gambling, etc.)
Or other chronic mental health or health conditions
For many, sorting out the issues is an important starting point. Our comprehensive assessment provides valuable insight that will identify the condition that requires treatment. We can help our clients take control by making changes in their relationships, behavior and thinking and the insight, knowledge and skills needed to manage life’s challenges. And just as important, regain hope for the future.
Did you know that more than 30% of New Mexicans live in poverty and that 26% of older adults have a significant mental disorder?
