I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), who is trained in Play Therapy and Autplay Therapy, which is a specialized therapeutic approach for children and adolescents with neurodevelopmental differences, including autism, ADHD, sensory differences, social anxiety, learning differences, and other developmental or physical disabilities. It is neurodiversity-affirming, meaning it values the unique strengths of each child while addressing areas of challenge in a supportive and inclusive manner. AutPlay Therapy is designed so that parents are not just observers but active, trained “co‐therapists” who work alongside the child and the therapist to meet therapy goals at home twccllc.net. This collaborative approach ensures that the child’s progress is sustained beyond the therapy session, creating a “Co‐Regulation Loop” where parents and children regulate emotions and behaviors together.
With adults or couples, I take a holistic approach to counseling that looks at the mind, body, and spirit. I integrate spiritual practices into my counseling sessions by creating a safe and open space for clients to explore their beliefs and values. My aim is to assist you in overcoming life’s challenges and achieving your fullest potential by exploring deeper meaning and purpose in your life. I use a mix of different methods to tailor my approach to each person, creating a supportive and empathetic environment for growth and healing. My diverse experience helps me connect with people from all walks of life.
Outside of work, I enjoy horseback riding, spending time with my pups, serving at my church’s Youth Ministry, and staying active with CrossFit. These activities keep me balanced and fulfilled, and I bring that energy into my counseling practice.

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
