Therapists in Kansas

As a therapist with over 20 years of experience, I offer a safe, affirming space to grow through what you're going through.

I also recognize and honor the unique challenges faced by military service members, veterans, and their families.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Certified Grief Counselor, I've spent the last 14 years helping individuals effectively navigate mental health challenges and build a deeper, more meaningful relationship with themselves. My goal is to empower you to heal from past trauma, truly understand your emotions, and step into living authentically. Here, you're free to share your story, find your voice, and embark on your unique journey of self-discovery and healing. What drives me is my personal experience with significant life changes and medical-related trauma. These challenges ignited a passion within me to help others navigate their own paths of healing and self-discovery. My approach is built on empathy, and my goal is to help you learn to love, honor, and appreciate yourself, even in the midst of your most difficult challenges. I believe therapy is about more than just managing symptoms; it's about building a life that feels authentic and meaningful to you. I integrate several evidence-based approaches to support your journey. Modalities like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). I believe in taking a holistic view, always creating a safe and supportive space where you can share your experiences freely and in your own words. My commitment is to empower you to grow and heal on your own terms.

Does this sound familiar- today is the day! Today is the day that you are finally going to get organized, stop contacting your toxic ex or start that self care routine you've been thinking about for months. And you start off great but find it hard to keep those new behaviors going. Your mental résistance enters and you feel stuck. Stuck in damaging behaviors and problematic patterns. And the pattern starts again. So here's what I've learned along the way: 1. Transformation is not linear. 2. Transformation is a daily event. 3. You are your own best healer.
