Phillip Thomas Stepka, PsyD.
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist
"Worry," "nervousness," "fear," "bad nerves," "stress"? Anxiety can mean many things to many different people. Some experience this unwanted state in the forms of body sensations such as digestive distress, racing heart, and/or feelings of suffocation that seemingly come randomly and without clear explanations. Others have intrusive images of disastrous futures to avoid or past experiences never wanted to be repeated. Perhaps you have an extremely pessimistic internal critic that expects the worst out of you, others, and/or the world. Finally, there may be specific people, places, or situations that trigger overwhelming anxiety that impair your effectiveness and wellbeing. I utilize individually tailored, yet evidence-based practices to address anxiety in the following ways: 1) first develop a shared understanding of the source of your distress and type of anxiety you are dealing with. 2) develop skills to manage impairing anxiety when triggered to provide short-term relief. 3) Finally, utilize strategies to more deeply understand the sources of your anxiety in order to provide longer-term resilience so that times that previously provoked the anxious feelings no longer have the same impact in the first place.

Anxiety and fear can be helped using meditation, talk therapy, hypnosis, and using different ways of thinking. Sometimes body work (or sensory motor psychotherapy) makes the most sense.

Zach Ramsey
Counselor/Therapist, MS, LPC-S, CSAT
I work with individuals struggling with anxiety, including chronic worry, panic, social anxiety, and stress-related overwhelm. My approach focuses on helping clients understand the patterns that maintain anxiety while building practical tools to regulate the nervous system and respond more effectively in the moment. I integrate evidence-based strategies with deeper work around underlying fears, self-perception, and relational dynamics. Together, we work to reduce avoidance, increase confidence, and create a greater sense of calm, flexibility, and control in daily life.

Amarillo sits at the heart of the Texas Panhandle — a vast agricultural and energy-producing region — with a therapy community shaped by its role as the commercial and medical center for a large, largely rural surrounding population. The city's predominantly conservative, faith-oriented culture means spiritually integrated therapy is a mainstream part of the local offering rather than a specialty niche. BSA Health System and Northwest Texas Healthcare System provide institutional mental health anchors for the Panhandle region, with a private therapy community that serves both city residents and clients traveling in from smaller surrounding communities. Amarillo's significant Hispanic population and growing refugee and immigrant communities create ongoing demand for bilingual and culturally informed therapists.
