Hi! I'm Sheila Ciminera, a licensed clinical social worker in Albuquerque, NM
(licensed in California & New Mexico).
Through trainings, all of us helping professionals can strengthen our ability to compassionately serve our communities (and care for ourselves!) I have trained a wide range of organizations that provide community mental health, care for unhoused youth and adults, medical wraparound services, substance use treatment, crisis triage, mobile care for severe mental illness, trauma treatment, legal representation to underserved New Mexicans, gender responsive care, and more. It has been my honor to support them! I am also available as a speaker at conferences.
I am highly experienced in the following areas:
-
compassion fatigue, empathic distress, vicarious trauma
-
trauma informed care
-
substance use and harm reduction
-
mindfulness
-
reintegration after incarceration
-
oppression and racial trauma
-
social justice
And I can help your staff in other ways- I provide crisis debriefing, process groups for self care and/or racial trauma, consultation, and retreats.
