About Sabrina
Sabrina Mayes is a licensed clinical social worker with eight years of experience in New Mexico. She focuses on practical, skill-based work to help people manage stress, anxiety, anger, and addiction. Sabrina emphasizes each person’s strengths and helps them build on what already works in their life.
She uses straightforward tools to address strong feelings and messy situations. Sessions often include clear steps for coping, ways to handle triggers, and short exercises to try between meetings.
Background and approach
This approach helps people make small changes that add up over time. Sabrina draws from several methods, including cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior ideas, and mindfulness practices. She also uses motivational interviewing and solution-focused work to support change and set realistic goals.
Those methods are chosen to match the needs a person brings to therapy. Her background includes supporting people through trauma, relationship struggles, grief, parenting challenges, and attention-related concerns. She also works with issues like codependency, communication problems, control issues, and substance use concerns.
Sabrina aims to create sessions that feel useful and focused from the first meeting. If someone is new to therapy, she guides them through the first steps and sets small goals. Meetings can include talking through recent events, practicing a skill, or planning next steps.
Sabrina’s style is practical, respectful, and centered on helping people regain a sense of control.

How evidence-based approaches translate online
Sabrina uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, anger, and stress by breaking problems into manageable steps.She also draws on dialectical behavior ideas and mindfulness therapy to teach emotion regulation and present-moment awareness. DBT-informed skills can help with strong emotions and impulsive reactions, while mindfulness supports calmer attention and reduced reactivity.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist listens to a person’s goals and preferences and recommends methods to try together. Plans are adjusted over time based on what works and what doesn’t, so the client helps shape the path forward.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video works well for longer conversations and practicing skills together. Phone sessions can be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging are useful for short check-ins, quick coping plans, or when someone prefers not to be on camera. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent amid busy schedules and changing routines.
