About Naja
Naja Druva is an LPCC licensed in New Mexico with nine years of professional experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and intimacy-related concerns, and people dealing with family of origin issues. Her practice also includes support around parenting, ADHD, compassion fatigue, and LGBT-related concerns.
Naja uses straightforward conversation and practical skills-building in sessions. She combines attachment-based ideas with client-centered listening and techniques drawn from DBT and trauma-focused work. Humor appears in sessions at times, and she says a well-timed joke can help people move forward.
Her style is direct and relational. She listens for repeating patterns that come from family roles and expectations. Then she helps people name those patterns and try small, testable changes in thinking and behavior.
Sessions often include mindfulness exercises, concrete DBT skills practice, and focused discussion about how childhood relationships still affect current choices. Naja also works with people on boundary-setting, distress tolerance, and repairing or reshaping important relationships in daily life.
People who come because they want clearer thinking and steadier reactions tend to find this approach useful. She combines practical tools with attention to how attachment and early family dynamics shaped current coping. The result is work that aims to reduce reactivity and increase clarity about next steps.
Approaches and how online work fits
Attachment-Based Therapy emphasizes how early relationships shape current patterns. In practice this means talking about family roles and expectations, identifying repeating responses, and exploring new ways to relate that reduce reactivity.Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and collaboration. The therapist follows the client's lead, reflects what she hears, and helps people clarify goals and priorities for their life and relationships.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches concrete skills for managing strong emotions, tolerating distress, and improving interpersonal effectiveness. Those skills can be useful for anxiety, anger, relationship conflicts, and many family-of-origin concerns.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options with each person and together decide which methods fit current needs, goals, and preferences. This is a collaborative process that can shift as priorities change.
The original profile does not specify which session formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find online sessions help fit therapy into a busy life - they can be easier to schedule around work, reduce travel time, and make it simpler to check in on shorter days. Some formats also work better for low-bandwidth situations or for shorter, skills-focused check-ins.
