Meet América Caballero, BA! An integral part of our Community Staff, América brings compassion, curiosity, and cultural awareness to everything she does. In addition to a BA in Psychology and a minor in Counseling and Educational Psychology from NMSU, she is currently pursuing her Master’s in Counseling in Clinical Mental Health at ISU, never missing an opportunity to learn and grow. Her specialties include child and youth support, counseling foundations, empowerment, and cultural awareness, making her an incredible advocate for the individuals and families she serves. She’s proud of her Mexican heritage, and her adventurous spirit shows in her love for martial arts — including kickboxing, boxing, Jiu Jitsu, and Taekwondo, where she’s earned her black belt! Thank you, América, for the dedication, heart, and strength you bring to your work every day. We’re so proud to have you on our team!

We all feel sadness. It’s a normal emotion that often passes with time, support, or rest. But how do you know when it’s something more? Depression is more than feeling down. It’s a medical condition that affects not just mood, but also energy levels, sleep patterns, and daily function. Those experiencing depression may lose interest in things they once enjoyed or struggle to get through the day. If sadness lingers or makes it difficult to function, it may be time to reach out for support. We’re here to help.

Expressing your appreciation for the people around you might seem like a small thing, but it can make a huge difference in someone else’s day. Remind your friends, your family, and even strangers that they matter, and tell the people in your life some things that you appreciate about them. Your words mean more than you realize, and they might just be exactly what someone else needs to hear today.
