Sandplay Therapists in Amarillo, TX

For many people, walking through a therapist's door for the first time can be intimidating. It doesn't have to be. My practice offers professional and confidential services in a safe, comfortable and home-like environment. We provide individual, family and couple therapy; children 3 years and older.

At Grief Recovery Center, our vision is a world where no one is afraid to seek mental health help, regardless of background. We believe that everyone deserves healing, hope, and compassionate mental health care. Our diverse group of mental health counselors and psychologists can help you navigate various life transitions and challenges through compassionate counseling and therapy in a cohesive and supportive environment.

As a psychotherapist and registered play therapist, my goal is to help you and your family uncover your true potential and lead a life that is worth celebrating. While we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges.

As one who has experienced complex trauma myself, I believe I can relate to my clients’ experiences and needs. My philosophy is no one should have to live under the shadow of trauma and how it affects the body. Trauma can be tough on survivors, but there is help and hope for healing. Most trauma victims exhibit some signs and symptoms of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). This can lead to Anxiety, Depression, Disassociation, and a myriad of other mental illnesses. These are the areas I specialize in by offering healing and hope to my clients allowing them to be in control of their trauma and not their trauma being in control of them. Strong mental health is so important and can change the trajectory of your life by helping you go from debilitating disorders to manageable and healthy mental health. https://compassionworks.com/a-mothers-story-september-suicide-awareness-month/

Whether addressing anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, life transitions, or personal development, we aim to guide our clients toward greater clarity, balance, and well-being. We take pride in being a diverse and collaborative team united by a shared mission: to make high-quality mental health care accessible, personalized, and grounded in authentic connection. At Arroyo Psychological Services, we don’t just provide therapy—we partner with our clients in creating meaningful, lasting transformation.

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.
