Hello- I’m Diana Price, a doctoral-prepared, dual board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner and Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I bring extensive clinical experience in treating individuals across the lifespan, including those with complex trauma, co-occurring conditions, and persistent mental health challenges.

In my practice, I take a comprehensive, person-centered approach to care. I believe that true healing requires attention to the whole person—mind, body, and spirit. This means I look at all aspects of your well-being, not just your symptoms, to develop a holistic treatment plan tailored to your unique needs.

As a trauma survivor myself, I deeply understand the challenges of navigating mental and emotional health. This personal experience allows me to offer a high level of empathy and compassion in my work. My patients often share that one of my greatest strengths is my ability to listen without judgment and to offer a space where they feel truly heard. I am committed to creating a safe, respectful environment where you can feel supported and empowered in your healing journey.

My name is Marcus McCray, I served in the U.S, military for 20 years. I have provided group and trauma counseling for the last two years in the local area.

As your co-pilot on this journey, I want to help you get to where you want to go. As we progress in our sessions, depending on how you feel we may use creative approaches such as art, meditation, and somatic approaches to help get to the root of your struggles.

I have a Master of Science degree from Abilene Christian University and a bachelor's degree from McMurry University (Ala Cumba and go WarHawks!). I have lived in Abilene since 2005 and have been a therapist in Texas for over 15 years. I am married, and am a mom of 3 boys and 2 fur babies.

I served over 15 years in the military and had the opportunity to travel and work with remarkable individuals around the world. During my service, I was fortunate to help military members and their families through a wide range of professional and personal issues. These experiences not only enriched my life but also fueled my sense of adventure. Today, I continue to explore the outdoors and new places with my family.
