Therapeutic Living Services

What Therapeutic Living Services does

Therapeutic Living Services, Inc. (TLS) is a non-profit community mental health center headquartered at 5601 Domingo Road NE in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Founded in 1977 as Haven House by a small group of community leaders, the organization has served adults with severe disabling mental illness in the Albuquerque area for more than 45 years and obtained its State of New Mexico Community Mental Health Center license in 2000. Its primary consumer segment is adults whose mental illness has rendered them unable to live independently, with a secondary segment of the families of those consumers.

The organization's service portfolio covers a continuum of care, anchored by three structured boarding homes — Mesa House, Gray House, and Jolly House — providing 24-hour staffed permanent supportive housing. Independent living options include the Concha Ortiz de Pino Kleven Apartments, a large family residence, and scattered-site rental assistance across Albuquerque. Clinical and rehabilitation services include psychosocial rehabilitation (PSR) focused on life management, interpersonal skills, symptom and anger management, and socialization; comprehensive community support coordination delivered by client advocates; medication oversight; crisis intervention; individual and group counseling; and family education.

TLS operates as a 501(c)-style non-profit with no parent company, no funding rounds, and no disclosed revenue. Funding is described as derived from government mental health contracts and Medicaid reimbursement tied to its CMHC license, supplemented by individual donations through PayPal and United Way donor designations. GTM is community-led: consumers are acquired via referrals from healthcare providers and social services rather than paid marketing, with brand engagement maintained through a quarterly PSR Community Newsletter and the tls-nm.org website. Leadership comprises Executive Director Barbara L. Church (MS, LPCC) and Finance and Administration Director Eugene Martinez (MBA), governed by a Board of Directors headed by President Tamne Robinson.
