Therapist

I am drawn to matters of the heart, the deep questions we ask, how we find meaning, move through pain, and become more free. My own healing through relationships, therapy, spirituality, expressive arts, and body movement led me to become a therapist. I completed my MA in Couples and Family Therapy from Seattle University in 2019, opened my private practice in 2021, and have trained in Internal Family Systems Therapy for 6 years. I also bring experience as a yoga instructor, doula trainee, and spiritual seeker.

Marilyn Fronk

Therapist

Virtual • Kansas


I've spent 20+ years working with people who are smart, self-aware, and still stuck — and there's a reason for that. Insight alone doesn't change deeply worn patterns. What does change them is combining the right clinical approach with someone who actually understands what you're carrying. I work with adults, teens, and children across Kansas via telehealth, and I specialize in anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, and ADHD — as well as LGBTQIA+ affirming care, substance use, and maternal mental health.

My style is direct and warm. I'm not a head-nodding, "how does that make you feel?" therapist. I'll ask hard questions when they're needed, and I'll be in your corner every step of the way.

Brittany Holland

Therapist

Virtual • Kansas


Brittany is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a master of social work degree from Walden University. With over seven years of experience in the field of social work, she brings a wide-ranging background that includes working with the Children’s Division, in hospital settings, with geriatrics, and school-based social work. This diverse experience has given her a deep understanding of individuals across the lifespan and the unique challenges they face. Helping others through therapy is more than just a career, it’s a calling. Brittany believes deeply in the power of trauma-informed care and support, and the healing that comes from having a safe, judgment-free space to process and grow. She also believes in the importance of identifying the root cause of symptoms, rather than just managing surface-level issues.

Patrice Dumas Veraguth

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Kansas


Hello, my name is Patrice Dumas Veraguth, and I am a board‐certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP). I work with adults and am passionate about providing thoughtful, evidence‐based mental health care that is collaborative, respectful, and individualized.

My treatment style is patient‐centered and collaborative. I believe that effective mental health care starts with listening, education, and shared decision‐making. When appropriate, I incorporate medication management alongside psychoeducation, practical coping strategies, and coordination with therapy or other supports. My goal is always to help clients feel informed, empowered, and supported in their care.

I strive to create a safe, non‐judgmental, and welcoming space where clients feel comfortable discussing their concerns and goals. Whether you are seeking help for focus and attention issues, mood changes, anxiety, or clarity around a diagnosis, I am committed to working with you to develop a treatment plan that fits your life and values.
