Find a therapist in Texas — covered by insurance

Starting this journey—whether it feels overwhelming, hopeful, or somewhere in between—takes courage, and I’m here to support you every step of the way. I work with adults navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, low self-worth, and the lasting impact of early family dynamics.

As a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 20 years of experience in psychiatric care, crisis intervention, and emergency medicine, I provide compassionate, evidence-based care rooted in the belief that you deserve to feel heard, respected, and empowered. Drawing on my background across outpatient, mobile crisis, and residential settings, I specialize in psychiatric evaluations, personalized treatment planning, medication management, and crisis stabilization.

I'm Reginald Ibe, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC). I provide telehealth psychiatric care to adults across Texas, Washington, New Mexico, and Nevada — diagnostic evaluation, medication management, and supportive therapy for depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, ADHD, PTSD, and insomnia.

My approach is collaborative and deliberate. I start low and titrate carefully, because the goal isn't just a lower symptom score — it's a life that feels workable to you. I'd rather have you on two medications that genuinely help than five that each do a little. I'll explain what I'm recommending and why, tell you what side effects to watch for, and expect you to push back if something isn't working. When therapy rather than another prescription is the right next step, I'll say so.

Not all wounds are visible, therapy is a way to heal from within. I provide psychotherapy and holistic support to help address anxiety, anger, addiction, depression, work stress, relationship conflicts or adjusting to the challenges of life. Together, we will work on strategies that allow you to address the root causes of your difficulties. I believe healing happens when people feel genuinely seen, heard, and understood. My goal is to create a safe, compassionate space where you can explore your experiences without judgment while building the tools needed to create lasting change.

It is my belief that as people become more aware and accepting of themselves, they are more capable of finding a sense of peace and contentment in their lives. Some of my clients need only a few sessions to achieve these goals, others may require months or even years to put their puzzle pieces together. As a client, you are in complete control, and you may end your relationship with me at any point. I am actively licensed in the State of Texas as a LMFT; LPC; and LCDC.

For therapy to be most successful, it is important for you to take an active role. This means working on the things you and I talk about, both during and between sessions. Generally, the more you are willing to invest the greater the return. It is my intention to empower you in your growth process to the degree that you can face life’s challenges in the future without me. I do not believe in creating dependency or prolonging therapy if the therapeutic intervention does not seem to be helping.

As a clinician, I have experience providing person-centered recovery plans; rehabilitation skills training; case management; and crisis intervention services, to individuals living with severe and persistent mental health concerns. I am qualified to offer a wide array of counseling services in the areas of Individual Family; Couples; and Chemical Dependency. Counseling services to address a wide range of mental health and relationship issues that impact a person’s emotional health and wellbeing.

My name is MacKenzie, and I’m a proud Texas native from the Panhandle. After earning my Bachelor’s in Psychology in 2012, I began my career in the helping field and later completed my Master’s in Counseling at West Texas A&M University in 2016.

I began by working with teens in foster care and later transitioned to supporting youth involved in the juvenile justice system. I then spent over a decade working in public schools, providing mental health support to students, families, and staff. In addition to my work with teens, I developed a deep appreciation for working with women during my time at a nonprofit counseling agency.

I have also been involved in helping found a local nonprofit organization that provides free counseling services to youth. I currently serve as a board member of the Amarillo Mental Health Professionals group and volunteer with American Foundation for Suicide Prevention, including engaging in public policy advocacy at both the state and federal levels.

I’m passionate about empowering others and helping them to heal, grow, and find their voice. My counseling style is eclectic, with a strong foundation in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.
