About
I help clients make sense of difficult emotions and patterns by breaking complex ideas into clear, practical tools they can actually use in everyday life.
I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor with more than nine years of experience helping adults navigate anxiety, trauma, relationship difficulties, emotional overwhelm, and patterns that leave them feeling stuck. I work especially well with clients who want more than a place to vent—they're looking for practical insight, clearer direction, and tools they can apply in everyday life. My goal is to help you better understand yourself, recognize patterns shaping your choices, and create meaningful, sustainable change.
My approach is practical, collaborative, and focused on making emotional and psychological concepts easier to understand. I use skill-based strategies for emotional regulation, trauma processing, cognitive reframing, mindfulness, and behavioral change. You can expect honest conversation, curiosity, humor, and tools tailored to how you think and live.
You don't have to have everything figured out before starting therapy. We can begin where you are, make sense of what's been weighing on you, and work toward changes that feel realistic and meaningful. If you're ready for a supportive, practical space focused on moving forward, I encourage you to schedule an appointment.

As someone who understands how deeply identity, relationships, and our sense of belonging can shape our lives, I approach therapy with curiosity, compassion, and a belief that you deserve to feel at home in yourself.
I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor Associate with a Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from St. Mary’s University. I work with clients navigating anxiety, depression, identity exploration, life transitions, and challenges with connection and belonging. My approach is collaborative and grounded in patience, curiosity, and compassion. I aim to create a space where you feel safe to better understand yourself, recognize your strengths, develop meaningful coping skills, and move toward a life that feels more authentic to you.
My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and grounded in an Adlerian perspective. I help clients explore patterns, recognize their strengths, build practical coping skills, and develop a stronger sense of identity and belonging. Clients can expect a supportive space where we work together toward meaningful, lasting change.
Starting therapy can feel like a big step, and you don’t have to navigate it alone. Wherever you are in your journey, I’m here to meet you with compassion, curiosity, and without judgment. If you’re ready to begin exploring what’s next, I invite you to schedule an appointment and take that first step toward meaningful change.

I understand that life can sometimes take us through difficult and unexpected seasons. My own life experiences have taught me the value of resilience, personal growth, and having someone who truly listens. I believe we all have the ability to grow, make meaningful changes, and find a new path forward, sometimes we just need a little support along the way.
I am a counselor with a Master of Science in Clinical and Mental Health Counseling and a passion for helping children, adolescents, and adults navigate life’s challenges and discover their own strengths. My experience includes working with children and teens in school and community-based settings, supporting individuals facing anxiety, stress, family changes, low self-esteem, and relationship concerns. I especially enjoy working with adolescents and young adults who may feel overwhelmed, misunderstood, or uncertain about their future. I also work with adults experiencing anxiety, relationship concerns, and major life transitions.
Building a strong, trusting relationship with my clients is at the heart of my approach. I take time to establish genuine rapport so clients feel safe, heard, and comfortable being themselves. Through a warm, person-centered approach, I help clients understand their emotions, recognize their strengths, and make meaningful changes at their own pace.
You do not have to have everything figured out before reaching out for support. Where you are today does not determine where you can go tomorrow. With support, encouragement, and the right tools, you can write a better story for yourself. When you are ready, I would be honored to walk alongside you as you take that next step toward healing and growth.

Having navigated loss and major life transitions myself, I know you don’t need to have everything figured out to move forward, find clarity, recognize patterns, learn to trust yourself, or begin making confident decisions that enhance your life.
I’m Angie Munsey, an LPC-Associate with counseling experience in private practice, middle school, and high school settings. I work with individuals 11 and older, couples, and families navigating anxiety, depression, grief/loss, life transitions, burnout, caregiver fatigue, and relationship challenges. I also help clients identify and work through people-pleasing, perfectionism, and overcontrol. My clients seek to understand recurring patterns, communicate more clearly, build stronger boundaries, and make confident decisions that reflect their values and strengthen their relationships.
My style is warm, direct, curious, and collaborative, with room for humor. I integrate CBT, ACT, and SolutionFocused Therapy with art and play therapy techniques. Together, we’ll explore patterns, consider new perspectives, and practice skills to help you respond intentionally and make changes that reflect your values.
You don’t have to do it alone, and you don’t have to have it all planned out. I’ll meet you where you’re at. Together we’ll decide what happens next. If you’re scared, that’s okay. Doubtful? That’s okay too. Do it scared. Do it doubtful. Schedule the appointment. All you have to do is start.

As a mixed-race, seven-year married, retired Army Veteran, with a blended family I have been honored with life experience that translates on multiple levels. Hello, I'm Amber, a Licensed Professional Counselor Associate (LPC-A) specializing in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I believe that counseling is a collaborative therapeutic partnership built on trust, respect, and authenticity. I view each client as an expert on their own life, while my role is to provide guidance, clinical expertise, and support as we work together toward meaningful and lasting change. My goal is to create a safe, compassionate, and nonjudgmental environment where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered. I strive to help individuals develop the insight, skills, and confidence needed to overcome anything. The first session is an opportunity for us to get to know one another and begin building a strong therapeutic relationship. We will review confidentiality, discuss your concerns, explore what has brought you to counseling, and identify your goals for treatment. Together, we will develop an individualized plan that reflects your values, strengths, and desires Working with adolescents, families, couples, veterans, and active-duty military has provided me with extensive experience treating trauma and trauma-related concerns, as well as anxiety, depression, crisis intervention, and adjustment difficulties.
I'm a licensed professional counselor associate (LPC associate) and a graduate of Texas A&M University–Central Texas. My experience spans a continuum of care, from inpatient treatment to intensive outpatient and outpatient settings, including a year-long internship at an inpatient hospital. I have also facilitated violence prevention groups and worked with court-mandated individuals. My approach is grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). While I do not currently specialize in one specific area, I'm committed to continually expanding my knowledge across a broad range of mental health concerns and client populations.
My approach to counseling is grounded in the belief that you have the power and the reins in your own life. I see my role as a sounding board, guide, and supportive partner. Stress management is an important part of my approach. I also believe counseling should consider the whole person—work, relationships, children, and pets all influence wellbeing.
I recognize choosing to begin counseling is a meaningful decision, and I don't take the time you share with me for granted. One of the quotes I've carried with me is, "Be the leader you wish you had." That idea reflects how I strive to show up—with honesty, compassion, respect, and genuine care. If you feel ready, I invite you to schedule an appointment.
You deserve dedicated time with a mental health professional — it can be life-changing.

My go-to approach for helping people in couples/marriage counseling is a combination of solution-focused therapy and principles from the Gottman method. I utilize the principles that focus on the strengths and growth of a relationship and explore how to move growth areas into glow areas.
One of the main tools I use to teach in couples/marriage counseling is a growth and strengths handout that covers topics from communication, finances, spiritual beliefs, and household roles.
I know a client is making meaningful progress in couples counseling when they are achieving their goals that we collectively agreed upon. This is demonstrated by their actions, demeanor, attitude, and personal assessments.
Clients can supplement their time in therapy with external practices such as journaling, joining group activities, attending helpful seminars, and/or listening to positive podcasts.
To prepare for your first online therapy session, you can write down your main concerns and what you have done in the past to try to alleviate them. Also, have a written list of medications you are taking and for what ailments.
Couples therapy and marriage counseling, also known as relationship counseling, helps couples work through their specific relationship issues. Some examples of common focuses within couples therapy and marriage counseling include:
The types of therapy used in couples and marriage counseling include:
At Thriveworks, Couples/marriage therapy is led by licensed professionals — often licensed marriage and family therapists (LMFTs) — who are experts in their field and best-equipped to help couples.
The Gottman Method of couples therapy is a research-supported approach designed to enhance relationships by bolstering the bond between partners, resolving conflicts, and fostering shared meaning in their relationship through comprehensive assessments and tailored interventions that improve communication, trust, and the overall health of the partnership.
If you’re facing persistent relationship problems, communication breakdowns, or unresolved conflicts that are impacting your emotional well-being and happiness, Couples/marriage therapy may be beneficial for you.
While marriage and couple’s counseling is typically recommended for couples who are experiencing persistent or severe relationship issues, any relationship can benefit from attending these sessions.
Marriage and couples counseling at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you and your partner.
On average, couples attend marriage and couples counseling for 12 weeks. However, couples & marriage counseling may last longer or shorter, dependent on the couples’ needs, the challenges they’d like to work through, and the pace of their progress.
At Thriveworks, we accept most major insurance plans, allowing many clients to pay as little as $0–$50 per session with their co-pay. We also offer self-pay options for those out-of-network or without insurance. Self-pay rates for talk therapy range from $160 to $240 for intake sessions and $135 to $195 for follow-ups, depending on your state. For psychiatry services, self-pay intake sessions are $255–$375, with follow-ups ranging from $175–$300, also varying by state. More information on current self-pay costs is available on our pricing page.
Every couple has their own reasons for starting couples counseling. A licensed marriage and family therapist can address all sorts of issues, from trauma and abuse to lack of intimacy and conflict resolution. Whether you’re looking to solve a problem or simply gain tips on strengthening your relationship, a couples therapist can help you get there.
Call us at Thriveworks in Amarillo, TX when you’re ready to speak to a dedicated therapist or counselor about your relationship. We’d love to work with you and your partner.
Just as cars require the occasional checkup, so do relationships.
