Because New Mexico is such a rural state, trying to find a provider or a specialist in the field of Behavioral Health can be challenging. If someone is in crisis they do not need the added frustration of spending hours on the internet trying to find a provider, a support group or an advocacy agency. My mission was to provide a website that was consumer and provider friendly so both groups would be able to easily access information for all their needs. NewMexicoBehavioralHealthResources.com was specifically created to streamline information.
Beforecreating this site, I researched literally hundreds of different sites that were specific to the fields of mental health. I studied what elements made them easy or hard to use. Then I looked at various New Mexico sites in an attempt to combine the information they contained so that consumers will be able to access one site instead of 12. I have added some links that I thought were really pertinent, I have more to put up, I am sure I missed many that people like and anyone can contact me with suggestions of their favorite websites, agencies, and particularly support groups in their communities.
For providers of services we have aBulletin Board/Events Page that is active to post events. This website is a work in progress. I have potentially over 4,000 listings that may be added. Be patient it will continue to evolve. April Email me at info@nmbhr.com
