I have been practicing in the field of mental health for over 20 years. I have a Masters degree in Rehabilitation Counseling from University of North Texas. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and a Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor. I serve clients age 18 and up addressing issues related to trauma, substance use, stress management, family issues, and other mental health issues. I have extensive experience in working with LGBTQi population. Clients will be seen virtually.
I know what it is like to walk through life's toughest moments. Divorce, an emotionally
abusive relationship, and raising two kids (one a teenager, one a young adult) taught me firsthand that healing is possible, and that nobody should have to do it alone.
Today I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with 9 years of experience, a devoted father, and a former martial artist who traded the mat for the counseling room. I started out as a middle school shop teacher, and watching school counselors change students' lives is what led me to earn a master's in school counseling and then a second master's in counseling. If you are ready to feel less stuck and more likeyourself, I would be glad to walk alongside you.
I have a passion for helping people navigate life's challenges. Seeking help can feel like a big step, but it is also a powerful one. I offer a collaborative and nonjudgemental space for discovering strengths and with helping you feel empowered.
You might feel stuck between who you thought you’d be by now and where life has actually taken you. Maybe you’re navigating a new diagnosis, old patterns that won’t let go, or relationships that feel like the same argument on repeat. As someone in long‐term recovery who once struggled to launch into adulthood, I understand how overwhelming it can be to rebuild your life from the inside out. I work with adults 17+ of all genders, and I have specific experience supporting people living with bipolar disorder, borderline personality disorder, and men who are exploring identity, emotions, and connection.
Hi, I’m Taylor Avery, an LCSW in Texas, and I earned my Master’s in Social Work from the University of North Texas. I specialize in working with individuals navigating substance use, trauma, grief and loss, life transitions, anxiety, and depression, and I have extensive experience in both individual and intensive outpatient settings.
Hi,
I am Lisa Lang, LCSW, a licensed therapist here in Texas. I am compassionate, engaged, interactive, and sensitive to client needs. I take pleasure in helping individuals improve their quality of life. I offer an open and safe environment to explore emotions and relationship patterns without judgment or vilification. I extend a supportive, empathetic, natural, and unbiased atmosphere, filled with positive energy.
I serve clients suffering from depression, anxiety, stress, strained relationships, substance use, trauma, alcoholism, interpersonal problems, IPV/DV, and those coping with grief or loss.
Welcome! I’m Monique Swan, owner of New Branch Mental Health. I believe mental health care should feel collaborative, compassionate, and personalized. As a dual board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I bring a whole-person perspective to psychiatric care.
I take time to understand your symptoms, experiences, lifestyle, medical history, and goals so we can work together to create a treatment plan that fits your individual needs.

Headway makes it easier to find support for overcoming addiction — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing an Addiction Therapist in Amarillo
Finding addiction therapists in Amarillo starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. Addiction care can include support for alcohol use, substance use, nicotine dependence, sexual addiction, gambling, and other behavioral concerns. Some therapists use approaches like motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy for substance use, or harm reduction-informed care. Some people may also work with a prescriber as part of their care team, so it helps to look for a therapist whose listed specialties match the type of support you want.
Amarillo has local counselors, therapists, and rehab-related resources, and virtual therapy can add more options when local appointment times or specialties are limited. Recovery can move in different directions over time — a therapist with a non-judgmental style and experience in addiction care can help you stay connected to support. As you compare therapists, look at appointment availability, whether they are accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading bios can also show how a therapist describes their approach, experience with addiction, and session structure before you book.
Addiction therapy in Amarillo can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and see estimated costs before booking. Headway helps you search for therapists who focus on addiction, review their profiles, check your insurance, and book directly when you’re ready — making it easier to find someone who matches your needs, accepts your plan, and is taking new patients.
If you or someone you know is experiencing severe withdrawal symptoms — especially from alcohol or benzodiazepines — talk to a medical provider or seek emergency care before starting outpatient therapy. If you or someone you know is struggling with addiction or substance use and is in a crisis, immediately reach out to:
* 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline — call or text 988 * SAMHSA National Helpline — 1-800-662-HELP (4357), free, confidential, 24/7 * Crisis Text Line — text HOME to 741741
