About Mandy
Sometimes clarity arrives one message at a time.
Hi, I’m Mandy Lopez Azimy, LCSW, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in New Mexico and Arizona.
I work primarily through asynchronous messaging rather than live video or phone sessions. This creates a calm, steady space where you can write when things are actually coming up for you, not just during a scheduled appointment.
I respond during consistent check-in times throughout the week. Some people prefer choosing one steady day as a more focused back-and-forth day, while others write as things come up. Together, we’ll find a rhythm that works and keep it steady.
Because therapy through messaging is a collaborative process, I encourage active participation. Depending on your goals, I may incorporate reflection questions, journaling prompts, worksheets, or goal-setting exercises to help deepen insight and support progress between messages.
While my practice is centered around messaging, there may be times when a live text chat is helpful for working through a specific issue in real time. When appropriate, we can discuss whether a live chat session would be beneficial.
Many people who feel anxious about live sessions or have busy, unpredictable schedules find messaging to be a more comfortable and sustainable way to engage in therapy.
I work with anxiety, stress, burnout, depression, life transitions, self-esteem, relationship concerns, communication difficulties, and family challenges. My approach is warm, structured, and focused on helping things feel clearer, more manageable, and more aligned with the life you want to create.
This is a space to begin gently, explore honestly, and move forward at a pace that feels right for you.
I look forward to working with you here.

- “Mandy is wonderful! Love working with her.”
- “Absolutely love Mandy. She is compassionate, understanding, and gentle. I’m so happy to have found someone who genuinely listens to my concerns and my feelings, she remembers details from one session to the next making each session feel personal and connected. I also like she checks in during the week with a little note letting me know shes though about me and gives suggestions to help me feel well during the week! I hope to stay a client for a very long time, it’s been a while since I’ve found someone who cares as much as she does!”
