Karen Stockham

Karen Stockham is a therapist based in New Mexico with 24 years of clinical experience working with a broad range of clients, including individuals, couples, children, adolescents and families to address life’s challenges.

She views therapy as a catalyst for healthy change in relationships and as a practical tool to solve problems, set and achieve goals, strengthen communication skills and manage stress. An attentive listener, she draws on solution-oriented and family therapy approaches that emphasize empowerment and active steps toward improvement. She also incorporates cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to explore how thoughts, behaviors and perspectives shape feelings and actions.

Karen holds a New Mexico Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor credential - NM LPCC CCMH0105211 - and brings an action-oriented style to her work. A mother of five boys and a grandmother to three, she values time with family and pursues interests such as photography, outdoor activities, exercise and volunteering at the local BioPark.

She offers therapy in formats that are convenient and accessible for clients, including online options, and will work at each client’s pace to help them navigate the process. Seeking counseling is a sign of strength, and clients who are ready to address life’s challenges and pursue a more fulfilling life are encouraged to reach out to begin that work with her.
