Therapist

Virtual • Olathe, KS


The most important goal I have is providing a space where you feel heard and understood. I believe that when someone feels heard, the nervous system begins to heal. I am someone who wants to get to know you and build trust. I hope to provide a space for growth as well as laughter and joy. We all heal a little more when we can laugh with someone. I have 6 years of experience as a counseling graduate and 2 years of counseling experience from grad school. A few of my main areas of focus are anxiety, depression, OCD, attachment, and mood disorders. I specifically enjoy working with children 8 and up, teens, young adults, and women.

When you’re living with trauma, the effects of a brain injury, or facing difficult health or end-of-life realities, it can feel isolating and exhausting.

I help adults navigating PTSD, TBI, grief, anxiety, and end-of-life concerns feel more supported, understood, and emotionally grounded. My goal is to provide a calm space where you don’t have to carry everything alone.

I've been a provider for the Adult Brain Injury Program for many years. If you do not have insurance, please contact me for possible financial assistance for Adjustment Counseling in Missouri through this program.

Therapist

Hi, I’m Natasha, a practicing therapist with over 18 years of experience helping individuals, couples, and families navigate life’s challenges.

Over the years, I’ve supported clients through struggles with anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, trauma, life transitions, ADHD, and family dynamics. My approach is warm, collaborative, and practical—I believe therapy should be a safe space where you feel heard, supported, and empowered to make real, lasting changes.

I draw from a variety of evidence-based approaches such as CBT, DBT, mindfulness, and trauma-informed care, tailoring each session to your unique needs. Clients often share that they value my ability to listen deeply, provide fresh perspectives, and offer tools they can use in daily life.

If you’re looking for a therapist who combines compassion with nearly two decades of professional experience, I’d be honored to walk alongside you on your journey toward growth, clarity, and healing.

Therapist

Virtual • Kansas


Hey there, I’m Karen, a licensed clinical social worker (LSCSW) who brings warmth and humor to our therapy sessions, fostering a strong, trusting relationship as the foundation for pursuing your goals. Through my telehealth practice, I support adults in Kansas navigating personal challenges, life obstacles, and mental health concerns. I personalize my approach with each client, helping them uncover new possibilities and create meaningful emotional change.

I specialize in working with adults navigating hurdles like ADHD, anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, self-esteem, and relationship issues, plus other emotional and mental health concerns. Whether you’re managing stress or seeking personal development, I offer education and skills to support your journey of growth. I especially enjoy assisting clients who come across as overly blunt or harsh, guiding them to refine their communication to connect more effectively while staying authentic.

My communication style is authentic, playful, and direct, paired with a splash of humor. I cultivate a space where you can explore and share freely. With thoughtful observation and clear communication, I notice what’s often overlooked and encourage honest dialogue.

I help you reach your goals by customizing therapy to fit you. I share analogies and relatable stories to bring clarity. I empower you to tap into your values, strengths, and passions to grow with integrity. By viewing emotions as messengers, not problems, I offer coping skills to manage them in a healthy way, giving you tools to find calm and achieve lasting progress.
