ADHD therapists and psychiatrists in Amarillo, TX

Life can be challenging and I want to help individuals build new skills and gain insight in helping overcome those challenges.

If anxiety, trauma, grief, or constant stress have been weighing on you, therapy can be a place to breathe, feel understood, and start moving forward. You may be feeling overwhelmed, stuck in painful patterns, or carrying more than you can hold on your own. I work with adults who want relief, practical support, and a path toward healing. Together, we can address anxiety, depression, anger, burnout, and life’s harder moments with care that is tailored to you.

Hi! I applaud you for considering counseling to assist you or a family member. My background is working with adults and children with trauma, adjustment issues and high conflict court cases. I also have quite a bit of experience with adults going through life transitions, feeling overwhelmed with life and finding oneself.

As your potential therapist, I view my role in your life as a collaborative one. We often hold the answers to our problems; I help you bring them to light. To clients, I refer to it as being your eyes while you struggle to see. Over the years, I’ve discovered a love for working with adolescents, domestic violence victims, and trauma survivors. I believe my empathy and life experiences have morphed me into the therapist I am today. Whatever you may be struggling with today, I congratulate you on the first step: listening to your body and seeking professional help.

Several factors go into finding a right-fit therapist for you. Research suggests that a strong therapeutic alliance results in more positive treatment outcomes. I encourage you to schedule a phone consultation with myself or other potential therapists. Choosing someone you feel comfortable with is your second and most important step.

The reality is, we have ONE life, why not live it fully? I believe challenges help us grow. You and only you are the key holder to your happiness. Whether you lost it or don’t know what to do with it; our work together will help you find it!

Mental Health First Aid Instructor

Hello! I am truly glad you are here. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Board Approved Supervisor with 14 years of experience supporting children, adults, and families. My work is rooted in relational theory, attachment theory, developmental trauma, trauma‐informed care, and interpersonal neurobiology. I believe healing and growth are always possible. I believe healing happens in connection, not in isolation. In our work together, you can expect a space where your pace is honored, and your lived experience is treated with care.

I believe healing begins when people feel genuinely seen, heard, and supported. As a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), I provide a compassionate, trauma-informed approach that combines evidence-based therapy with a genuine, collaborative relationship.

I work with teens, adults, couples, and families experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, life transitions, relationship concerns, low self-esteem, stress, and family conflict. I also enjoy helping clients overcome people-pleasing, establish healthy boundaries, improve communication, and process difficult life experiences that continue to impact the present.

Before becoming a therapist, I spent 19 years working in public education, helping children, teens, and families navigate emotional challenges, strengthen communication, build resilience, and develop practical coping skills. That experience continues to shape my approach by meeting clients where they are and focusing on their unique strengths.
