About Sabrina

Sabrina Mayes is an LCSW - Licensed Clinical Social Worker in New Mexico with eight years of professional experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma, anger, and depression. She supports people who are dealing with relationship strain, family problems, grief, parenting challenges, self-esteem concerns, and ADHD. Sessions are offered in English. International clients are not currently accepted.

She describes therapy as a practical collaboration. She focuses on noticing unhelpful thoughts and habits, then trying different ways of responding. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is one approach she uses to help people test and change patterns of thinking that keep problems going.

She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills and mindfulness techniques to teach emotion regulation and grounding strategies when feelings feel overwhelming. Motivational Interviewing helps people clarify what matters most and move toward small, doable changes when motivation is mixed.

In sessions she works in clear, step-by-step ways. People can expect short, focused conversations about what is getting in the way, practice of new skills, and setting manageable goals between meetings. She uses practical tools rather than long explanations.

Signing up begins with a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first session. The cost varies by location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. Confirm current session options before booking to make sure they fit your needs.

How CBT, DBT, and Mindfulness fit into online sessions

People can expect Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to look like clear, short activities online - identifying specific thoughts, testing them with small experiments, and practicing alternative responses between sessions. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, and patterns that keep problems repeating.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy emphasizes skills training in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. Online work often means reviewing skill steps together and then practicing them in daily life. Mindfulness Therapy focuses on simple attention and grounding exercises to reduce reactivity and improve focus during stressful moments.

Finding the best approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide whether CBT, DBT skills, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, or a mix is most useful based on goals and preferences. That choice can shift as progress is made.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online formats can make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, shorten travel time, and allow focused check-ins when needed. Discuss how to structure sessions to match your day-to-day life when you schedule the first appointment.
