About Naja
Naja Druva is an LPCC licensed in New Mexico with nine years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, relationship and family concerns, and issues related to intimacy, parenting, ADHD and identity. She also lists LGBT issues, compassion fatigue, and coaching among her areas of focus.
Her approach centers on practical skills and direct conversation. She uses techniques from dialectical behavior therapy and trauma-focused work alongside attachment-based and client-centered ideas. Sessions often include mindfulness practices and skills building to manage strong emotions and daily challenges.
Naja pays attention to how relationships shape current struggles. She helps people notice patterns tied to attachment and past losses, then practices alternatives in session. She explains techniques plainly and checks in about what feels useful.
Humor figures in her work when it fits - she notes that a light moment can make difficult topics easier to talk about. She balances that with focused skill practice for handling crises and ongoing stressors.
People who prefer straightforward, skill-focused conversations may find her style a good match. She also works collaboratively, helping clients set goals and try out small changes between sessions. To start, visitors are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How her approaches translate to online work
Attachment-based work looks at how past relationships affect current patterns. Online sessions can include talking through relationship histories and practicing new ways of relating during conversations. Client-centered work emphasizes listening and the client’s perspective; online sessions focus on following what matters most to the client and reflecting it back to help clarify goals. Dialectical behavior therapy, or DBT, teaches concrete skills for handling intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness; those skills can be demonstrated, practiced, and reviewed during remote sessions.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. The therapist collaborates with each person to choose what fits their needs, goals, and preferences. She checks in about what is or isn’t working and adjusts methods as the work progresses.
The biography does not specify which session formats are used, so confirm current options before booking. In general, working with a licensed professional online can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example, sessions can save travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or make it simpler to maintain regular appointments around work or caregiving. These practical benefits help many people keep consistent momentum in therapy without promising a particular format.
