The Current news desk · AI-assisted curation · News brief · Albuquerque & Metro

UNM’s Manzanita Counseling Center is preparing to expand from three counseling rooms to six, the university reports. The Albuquerque clinic combines no-cost, short-term counseling with supervised clinical training for graduate students. The planned improvements also include a more private waiting area for clients.

UNM says support connected to alumna Dorothy Wooldridge Gram is helping make the expansion possible. The clinic serves individuals, couples and families, and can help connect people to longer-term care when needed. The university’s account describes planned capacity, not a guarantee of appointment availability.
