Amber McKinney-Morgan
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LICSW
Trauma can affect how you think, feel, and experience the world long after the event has passed. I specialize in trauma-informed care using EMDR, somatic approaches, and parts work to help process and integrate these experiences. Therapy is paced and collaborative, helping you move from survival toward a greater sense of safety and empowerment.

Jenn Zatopek
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, EMDR
I'm a trauma specialist, and I use EMDR and mindfulness to help you heal from past pain. EMDR helps to unlock the trauma from the nervous system, but I don't start out doing EMDR. I start out doing a lot of resourcing and grounding to help you feel safe inside your own skin. Then when you are ready to begin processing we can do so.

Abilene is a West Texas city home to Dyess Air Force Base—host of a B-1 Lancer bomber wing—as well as three Christian universities: Hardin-Simmons University, Abilene Christian University, and McMurry University, giving the city a distinctive identity anchored by military service and faith-based education. The strong evangelical Christian cultural context shapes how mental health is discussed and accessed in the community, with many residents preferring faith-integrated therapy or pastoral counseling as a primary mode of support. Military and veteran mental health needs—particularly trauma, PTSD, and family stress—are a significant part of the Abilene therapy landscape, and the city's position in remote West Texas means that access to specialist care can require telehealth or significant travel. Common therapy concerns include faith and mental health, military service and transition stress, anxiety, depression, and the challenges of living in a close-knit, religiously conservative community in an isolated regional city.
