I'm Melinda Powers, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LSCSW) and owner of Parlami LLC, a private psychotherapy practice in Lawrence, Kansas. I hold an MSW from Arizona State University and am licensed in Kansas, Missouri, and Nevada.
My clinical approach is trauma-informed and integrative. I'm trained in EMDR and clinical hypnotherapy and I hold ADHD Clinical Services Provider credentials. I work with individuals, couples, and families ages 15 and up, with particular specialties in trauma recovery, ADHD, and conscious uncoupling for couples navigating separation or divorce.
I believe healing happens through genuine connection, not just technique. Whether you're working through past trauma, navigating attention or focus challenges, or facing the end of a significant relationship, I bring both compassion and directness to our work together. I'll meet you where you are, but I won't let you stay stuck there if real change is possible.
Parlami means "talk to me" in Italian, and that's exactly the invitation I extend to every client: a space to be honest, be heard, and do the real work of moving forward.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Olathe, KS
Searching for therapists in Olathe starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. People often look for therapy for anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship challenges, grief, or major life changes. As you compare therapists, look for someone whose listed specialties, training, and approach match what you want to work on. A therapist’s bio can help you understand whether they use approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma-informed care, or couples counseling.
In a smaller city like Olathe, the number of nearby in-person options may be more limited than in larger metro areas. Virtual therapy can expand your search while still connecting you with a Kansas-licensed therapist. You can narrow your options by appointment availability, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, session format, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking can also help you compare communication style, experience, and what to expect in a first session.
Therapy in Olathe can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand your expected out-of-pocket cost before you book. Headway helps you find therapists who match your preferences, accept a wide range of insurance plans, and show estimated costs upfront, so you can review bios, compare options, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
