Counselor

I have had the pleasure of working with a vast array of populations, including veterans, children, domestic violence survivors, previously incarcerated people, LGBTQIA+, unhoused people, severe mental illness, and substance dependence of all sorts. With my work has come experience and knowledge about humanness that I deeply enjoy and strive to nurture. In my free time I enjoy spending time with my three dogs, Kreature, Heck and Ennis, doing stained glass, making jewelry, or being creative any way I can! 

Counselor

Yuliana is a licensed LSAA who joins our team as a Counselor. She was born and raised in Ukraine and is fluent in three languages. After early graduation from High School and College, she earned her BA in Psychology through the University of New Mexico. Yuliana volunteered at the Agora Crisis Center and participated in research at UNMH. She has always been passionate about creating positive change in counseling/ therapy, especially for adolescents who can feel misunderstood and overlooked when receiving counseling. 

Peer Support Leader

Heather Gunn is a multitalented professional with a diverse background. She holds certifications as a Certified Peer Support Worker (CPSW) and Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT), as well as an Associate of Arts in Business Administration (AABA). Gunn considers herself a lifelong learner and is currently enrolled in an Exercise Science and Wellness degree program. 

In 2024, Gunn served as a student editor for the Leonardo Literary Magazine at Central New Mexico Community College. She previously won the literary award from the same magazine in 2022. Gunn has also been recognized for her outstanding poetry, earning the Editor's Choice Award from poetry.com and the International Library of Poetry in 2008 and 2007.

Journaling, writing, and exercise have been central to Gunn's wellness and recovery journey. She has maintained sobriety for over 17 years, utilizing SMART practices and the support of her behavioral/medical health team, family, and friends. Gunn has also given back to her community, volunteering for six years with Albuquerque Public Schools. In this role, she assisted students in reading groups, comprehension studies, art projects, cultural events, and library management.

Reflecting on her path, Gunn says she has "come full circle" from her teenage years as a runaway. Now certified and experienced, she is poised to continue making a positive impact on her community.

Compliance & QA

Billing Specialist

After losing my son, Michael, to addiction at the age of 19, I have spent the last 13 years advocating for our community by providing awareness and education to youth and their families about substance misuse.

I joined Healing Addiction in our Community (HAC) in 2011 and we opened Serenity Mesa in 2015. As I began credentialing and billing for Serenity, I quickly realized how

much I enjoyed the process.

My goal as a Billing Specialist is to help providers help others by providing my services, allowing agencies, such as NewView Healing, the time necessary to focus on their clients.
