Ms Catherine Warnock

Clinical Mental Health Counselor

“Trauma-informed Professional Counselor licensed in NM, TX and CO specializing in PTSD, anxiety, anger, guilt/shame, and relationship issues. Also offer psychedelic therapy”

About Me

I offer a trauma-informed space where you can navigate challenging feelings like anxiety, anger, or guilt. When past experiences cause ongoing distress, we can gently explore their impact together. I help clients process PTSD and relationship issues, fostering a sense of safety and clarity. This collaborative approach provides practical ways to understand and move beyond difficult experiences.

Approach

Work unfolds at your tempo: I attend closely to what feels safe while helping you name patterns that keep anxiety, guilt, or anger active. In my Las Cruces office or online, sessions move between focused reflection, grounding practices, and brief practical exercises you can use between meetings; when appropriate we carefully integrate deeper experiential work with attention to preparation and aftercare. People who want steady pacing, clear tools, and compassionate support for long‑standing reactions tend to find this approach useful.
