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.

Hello, and welcome! I'm a licensed therapist with eight years of experience in the behavioral health field. I became fully licensed in 2021 and have enjoyed helping clients develop insight and change behaviors through their journey with me. I started my professional life as an educator in 2003, but life had a different path and I discovered my passion was to provide psychotherapy to individuals across the lifespan. I treat ages 10+ and assist individuals understand their moods, develop strategies to manage them, or simply provide a safe space and a listening ear.

Therapist

I've been doing this work long enough to know that no two people heal the same way. My practice is built around that reality. I work with clients from childhood through late life — across trauma, grief, PTSD, ADHD, anxiety, and the particular kind of exhaustion that comes from carrying too much for too long. I'm EMDR-certified and trained in Neurofeedback and Childhood Complex Trauma, and I hold a gerontology certification for clients working through aging, loss, or end-of-life transitions. I don't use a one-size-fits-all model — I listen first, then we figure out together what kind of support will actually help you move forward.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Lenexa

Searching for therapists in Lenexa starts with knowing what kind of support you want. People often look for therapy for anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, work stress, or major life changes. As you compare therapists, look for listed specialties and training that match your needs. A therapist’s bio can also help you understand their approach, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or family therapy.

Lenexa is a smaller market, so the right local match may depend on both fit and availability. In-person sessions can work well if you prefer an office near home, work, or nearby areas like Sar-Ko-Par, Monticello, or Old Settlers Park. Virtual sessions can add more options across Kansas, especially if your schedule works better with appointments from home. Before booking, review whether a therapist is accepting new patients, offers appointment times that fit your calendar, and provides a free phone consultation.

Therapy in Lenexa can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and choose between virtual and in-person care when available. You can compare bios, confirm fit, and book directly when you’re ready.

If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
