Treatment Delivery
Medical Trauma Treatment can be accessed in-person in Santa Fe, or with Telehealth throughout New Mexico and Colorado
When needed due to health-related limitations, the clinician may be able to meet with you, your child, or your family in your home or in hospital settings
Please note that individuals must be 12 years or older to independently attend Telehealth appointments. If your child is under 12 years old and you would like them to receive Medical Trauma Treatment through Telehealth, a guardian must be present and active on the call for the duration of the appointment
In addition, if you would like to receive any of these services through Telehealth, some of the immersive elements listed above may not be possible or safe to perform without in-person guidance from the clinician and therefore removed from your treatment plan
