Because Choice has outpatient offices in Albuquerque and Las Cruces, say clearly that Tucumcari travel would require confirmation. You do not need to diagnose, argue, or secure agreement in one talk.

Choose a calm time and use specific, respectful language. You might say, “I care about you, and I have noticed this is affecting our plans. Would you be willing to learn what help could look like?” Avoid labels, threats, or promises. A qualified professional can listen to what is going on, assess your needs, and guide the safest next step.
