Adar Higgs, LMHC
Adar (she/they) is a licensed mental health counselor with an extensive background in somatic, yoga, and other forms of mindfulness, and a growing interest in expressive arts and narrative therapy. Adar brings their lived experience as a disabled, chronically ill, neuroqueer cancer survivor into the counseling room, informed by queer and feminist theory as well as disability justice.
Suffering, pain, and loss are all part of our lives. That, we cannot change. We may not be able to stop it in its tracks, but we can harness the profound power these experiences to shape who we are, how we show up, and our understanding of what we’re here to do in this life.
Adar’s experience includes working with PTSD, trauma recovery, attachment wounding, and domestic violence; substance use and recovery; grief and loss; chronic illness and chronic pain; neurodivergence, and disability, including experience with LBGTQIA+ individuals. She is familiar with navigating the complexities of the healthcare system as a person of marginalized identities, and particularly excited about working with queer, trans, disabled, chronically ill, and neurodivergent clients. Their background in public health includes training in motivational interviewing and other evidence-based strategies for supporting the process of change—including bringing a deep appreciation for systems thinking, and role of community organizing & societal level change, outside of the counseling room.
Adar is available for both in-person and telehealth sessions. Outside of the counseling room you’d be just as likely to find them printmaking, hosting a radio show, or teaching a yoga class, as you might at a protest or on the dance floor.
Turlienna Williams, LMSW
Turlienna is a clinical social worker, who is committed to advancing social justice and equity through a trauma-informed, client-centered practice. She brings a systems-level perspective to her work, informed by her own lived experiences. Her background includes advocacy and community outreach with marginalized populations, including disability rights, LGBTQIA+ support, and gender-affirming care. She approaches this work with both critical analysis and deep empathy, recognizing that meaningful change requires addressing root causes rather than surface-level symptoms.
Throughout her practice, she has focused on creating space for clients to define their own goals and solutions. She is especially drawn to work that centers the voices of those most impacted by systemic inequity. For her, this career is about ensuring that resources, dignity, and autonomy reach those who have been historically excluded.
Outside of her professional life, she recharges through creative and physical pursuits including exercise, hiking, photography, art, and fusion cooking that blends Panamanian and Mediterranean traditions. As the child of an immigrant, her roots in New Mexico remain deeply central to who she is. She is committed to practicing social work that honors complexity, challenges injustice, and builds authentic relationships with the communities she serves.
Genn Philp, LMFT intern
Genn (they/them) is an intern completing their Master's degree in Marriage and Family Therapy. There are many paths to becoming a therapist, but they chose the LMFT route because they believe that relationships are inextricably tied to mental health and wellbeing. When a person is struggling, there is usually a relationship in their life that needs help or can provide help. Accordingly, Genn approaches therapy with a strong focus on attachment quality and needs. Genn views clients as the experts on their own lives and experiences, and they consider their job as a therapist to be curious about clients’ worlds - to add to their stories rather than to try to correct them. It is their hope and intent to enable clients to feel heard, seen and understood in session, and, when working with relationships, to help partners to hear, see and better understand each other.
Genn especially enjoys working with queer individuals and relationships, including genderqueer and transgender folx, as well as those exploring or living in polyamorous relationships. They understand how important it is to find a therapist who truly sees, affirms, and understands you. Genn is passionate about creating a welcoming, affirming space where people can show up as their authentic selves, feel safe being vulnerable, and explore their relationships and experiences without fear of judgment.
Outside of therapy, Genn spends their down time gaming as much as possible; reading fantasy and queer romantasy books; chilling with the trees, birds and bunnies in their big wild yard, and playing with their tornado of a five-year-old.
