Christi Fields, LCSW

Christi Fields is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW - Licensed Clinical Social Worker) based in New Mexico with 10 years of experience providing counseling, clinical case management, and parenting psycho-education. Her background includes work with individuals and families, often in situations involving court-related matters, the criminal justice system, or child welfare agencies. Over the course of her career she has supported people facing depression, anxiety, shame, anger, and grief, and has provided care for those affected by trauma, domestic violence, substance use, homelessness, divorce or separation, family and parenting challenges, and employment difficulties.

Fields grounds her practice in client self-determination and empowerment, offering services from a non-judgmental, harm-reduction perspective that prioritizes practical progress over perfection and values each person’s definition of what is “good enough.” Using a Person-in-Environment framework, she employs an integrated, short-term approach that draws from client-centered therapy, solution-focused therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and motivational interviewing to help clients set goals and develop workable strategies. Her areas of interest also include adoption and foster care issues, blended family dynamics, divorce and separation, family-of-origin and fatherhood concerns, intellectual disability, and a range of issues related to LGBT identities, intimacy, addictions, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and career transitions.

In addition to therapy, Fields provides parenting-focused education and clinical case management to help clients navigate practical and systemic challenges. More information about her practice is available at https://christifieldslcsw.com.
