I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with extensive experience providing mental health support across diverse community settings. I have had the privilege of working with individuals ranging from young children to older adults, supporting them through a wide spectrum of emotional and behavioral challenges commonly described in the DSM-5-TR. I believe deeply in the inherent resilience and healing power within every person. My role is to help individuals uncover that strength, make sense of their experiences, and move toward healthier, more fulfilling lives. I pursue this work not for financial gain, but because I truly love what I do and feel honored to walk alongside others on their healing journey.
Hi, I’m Liz. I’m a bilingual therapist, and I feel most authentic when I can move naturally between both languages. I’m a Texan through and through, with plenty of Tex Mex Spanglish to show for it. I connect deeply with clients who are navigating family issues, generational trauma, cultural expectations, and the process of outgrowing beliefs or roles they were taught as children. I enjoy helping clients understand themselves better by exploring attachment patterns, nervous system responses, relationships, and the gap between who they were raised to be and who they are becoming. I have a heart for working with families, children, and parents because I believe it is easier to help children build healthier coping skills early than to wait until they are struggling later in life. I also find deep meaning in working with adults who are healing their inner child, breaking cycles, and learning how to live in a way that feels more honest and whole. My work often supports clients dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues, stress management, parenting concerns, and life transitions.
Great to meet you
If you’re struggling with anxiety, overthinking, trauma, or relationship stress, you’re not alone. Many people face these challenges, and support is available to help you feel understood and less isolated.
I work with adults and adolescents who feel overwhelmed, mentally exhausted, or stuck in patterns they can’t seem to break. Many of my clients deal with high anxiety, racing thoughts, people-pleasing, and difficulty setting boundaries. Still, therapy can help you find hope and a way forward, even if it looks like you have everything together on the outside.
If you’re constantly overanalyzing, feeling on edge, or carrying the weight of past experiences, therapy can help you slow things down and regain control, empowering you to manage your thoughts and feelings more effectively.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Amarillo
Finding the right LGBTQIA+-affirming provider in Amarillo starts with understanding what kind of support you're looking for. Whether you're navigating anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, identity exploration, or the effects of minority stress, look for a licensed provider — such as an LPC, LCSW, psychologist, or psychiatrist — who has direct experience working with LGBTQ+ clients. Reading a provider's bio can help you understand their approach, training, and whether they feel like a good match before you reach out.
In a smaller metro area like Amarillo, the number of local affirming providers may feel limited. Virtual sessions can significantly expand your options, connecting you with licensed professionals across Texas who specialize in LGBTQIA+ mental health care. Many providers on Headway offer both in-person and virtual appointments, so you can choose the format that fits your schedule and comfort level.
Therapy in Amarillo can be expensive without insurance, but affordable options exist when you use in-network coverage. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, and you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs upfront. Many patients pay as low as $0 per visit, making it easier to prioritize consistent, affirming care.
