About Naja

Naja Druva is a licensed professional clinical counselor practicing in New Mexico with nine years of experience. She combines evidence-informed skills training with a strong emphasis on human connection, offering a calm, attentive presence alongside structured therapeutic tools.

Background and approach

Her work draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy and trauma-focused strategies to support people navigating stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and ADHD among other concerns. Clients may find her approach balances practical skill building with empathic listening, and she values humor as a helpful part of healing - she even collects therapy-related memes.

Naja addresses relationship and intimacy concerns, family and parenting challenges, self-esteem and anger issues, and a broad range of trauma and attachment-related difficulties. She tailors interventions to individual needs while keeping sessions client-centered and collaborative.

Licensed as an LPCC (NM LPCC CCMH0209911), she brings both training and warmth to remote work. Naja accepts international clients in addition to those in New Mexico and offers multiple session formats to fit different schedules and preferences.

Evidence-informed approaches for online care

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relational patterns influence current connection and trust; it helps people explore attachment needs and improve emotional bonds. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes skill building in areas like emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be useful for managing intense emotions and improving day-to-day coping. Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on processing and resolving traumatic memories and reactions in ways that reduce symptoms and restore functioning.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic work and will be decided collaboratively. The therapist partners with each person to clarify goals, assess which methods fit best, and adapt techniques to individual preferences and life circumstances so that the plan feels practical and doable.

Online sessions with this clinician are offered via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. These options allow people to access licensed professionals from different locations, schedule sessions around busy lives, and continue care during transitions or when in-person visits are not possible.
