Zach Ramsey
Counselor/Therapist, MS, LPC-S, CSAT
I work with individuals navigating LGBTQ+ related concerns, including identity exploration, coming out, relationship dynamics, and the impact of stigma or minority stress. My approach provides an affirming, nonjudgmental space while also helping clients build practical tools for managing anxiety, navigating relationships, and strengthening self-acceptance. I support clients in addressing internalized shame, setting healthy boundaries, and developing a more integrated and authentic sense of self. Together, we focus on fostering resilience, clarity, and meaningful connection in both personal and relational life.

Shannon Stern, LPC-S, LMHC
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC-S, LMHC
I love working with women who identify as queer/lesbian/bi or are questioning their sexuality later in life. Perhaps this means you have been in a heteronormative relationship throughout your life, but are coming to terms with your authentic identity. This process can be distressing, especially as you navigate dating and talking-to friends/family about your orientation. Therapy can be helpful in providing a space to process emotions and receive support during this journey.

Jacqueline Elster
Psychologist, PsyD, HSPP, LP
My near 20 years of experience has helped me develop an approach to therapy that involves providing a supportive and affirming environment where you can explore their identity and experiences while feeling accepted and affirmed. It is important to acknowledging and validating the unique challenges faced by LGBT+ individuals, such as discrimination, internalized homophobia, and coming out. Therapy can help address issues you may have related to self-acceptance, relationship dynamics, and coping with societal pressures. By fostering a safe space, my hope is to empower you to develop resilience, enhance self-esteem, and build healthier, more fulfilling lives.

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.
