Zach Ramsey
Counselor/Therapist, MS, LPC-S, CSAT
I work with individuals struggling with gambling and related compulsive behaviors, helping them understand the cycle of urges, risk-taking, and emotional escape that can drive the pattern. My approach combines practical tools to manage impulses and high-risk situations with deeper work around underlying stress, shame, and coping strategies. I support clients in rebuilding financial and personal stability, increasing accountability, and developing healthier ways to manage emotions and uncertainty. Together, we focus on creating sustainable change, strengthening self-control, and restoring a sense of balance and integrity.

Dina Hijazi
Psychologist, PhD, CSAT
Struggles with gambling can affect not just finances, but self-esteem, relationships, and overall well-being. I provide a supportive, judgment-free environment to help individuals understand the emotional and behavioral drivers behind compulsive gambling. Using evidence-based approaches like cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), relapse prevention strategies, and emotional regulation tools, we work together to regain control, rebuild trust, and create healthier coping mechanisms. Recovery is possible—with the right support, change can start today.

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.
