Therapists for Teens in Deaf Smith County, TX

I have extensive experience working with individuals who are grieving, families who are struggling in their relationships, and with those who are facing challenges in their lives and in their relationship with God. I do individual counseling as well as marriage and family counseling. I focus on communication skills, coping with stress and anxiety, trauma, and healing past hurts. My perspective and approach is Christian but I work very well with clients who are not religious or who are exploring their relationship with God.

I have worked with men, women and children in individual, family and couples therapy. I have worked in residential, inpatient and outpatient facilities and have gained valuable experience in working with people who are dealing with anxiety, depression, substance abuse, anger issues, mania, loneliness, life transition, trust issues grief and loss.and so much more. I enjoy trying to help others be happier and more successful in their lives and gain a great deal of satisfaction from my clients allowing me to do so by allowing me into their lives.

You've heard, "Change your thoughts and you change your world." But How? If you are like most people, you have had painful experiences that have continued to affect how you are thinking, feeling or behaving. Those thoughts and feelings have been stored as memories in your brain's neurons, but Your Brain Can Change: this ability to change is called "Neuroplasticity" (Google it!). I have studied many ways to help you clear or minimize those stuck memories away using Clinical Hypnosis, "Pattern Interrupts," and Visualization, to "rewire" your brain. You DO NOT have to re-live and discuss the hurtful details to notice a difference.

I am a Bilingual Licensed Professional Counselor.

I am delighted to be able to help you find or renew hope, strengths, and/or to develop reachable goals which will enable you to fulfill your full potential. My goal is to support my clients through life's stresses and help them heal, resolve, and manage the issues that may seem impossible to overcome.

Hi. I am Karen, and I have been a therapist in the Amarillo area for 20 years. I have worked with people in all phases of their lives as they navigate difficult, troublesome times. I utilize an eclectic style of therapy in an attempt to meet people where they are on their journey. Some of the disciplines that I have found to be most helpful for those facing challenging situations are Cognitive Behavioral therapy, Mindful techniques and Evidence based Trauma Therapies. I specialize in treating depression, anxiety and trauma. I welcome any questions you might have regarding therapy. Feel free to call or text.

I provide counseling for adults and children who are experiencing persistent sadness, a sense of low worth/esteem, anxiety/worry, panic, heightened sense of stress, frequent irritability, survival/trauma responses due to past trauma experiences, and are affected in important areas of life. I help develop treatment goals to improve mood, sense of worth, coping strategies, behavioral issues, rational/healthy thoughts, anxiety management, trauma healing, and self-care.

“Everybody has problems, right? But why do I feel so (hopeless, helpless, anxious, afraid, overwhelmed, lonely…. Fill in the blank)?” Sometimes life is just hard. There are moments when we realize that we can no longer manage all the balls we have been juggling. Other times life just smacks us in the face, out of the blue. While there are moments that everything seems to be going great but we just can’t let go of the gnawing anxiety in our stomach. Good news! You don’t have to feel this way forever.

Psychotherapy is like embarking on a journey. The destination is the change you're hoping for. For the therapeutic process to be effective you need to trust that the therapist you hire knows what they're doing. I've been doing this for more than a decade. You should expect to see results within the first 6 sessions.
