Therapist

I earned my Master's in Marriage and Family Therapy from Friends University in 2019, but my path here didn't start in a classroom — it started in Human Resources, where I spent years helping people navigate conflict, communication breakdowns, and the messy dynamics that come with any close relationship. Turns out, those same skills translate pretty directly to couples work.

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.

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.

Find the right counselor for your family

Headway makes it easier to find family-focused support — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Family Therapist in Overland Park, KS

Finding family therapists in Overland Park starts with understanding what your family wants support with. Family therapy can help with parenting conflict, adolescent struggles, blended family dynamics, communication across generations, and major changes at home. Family therapists are trained to work with the relational system, not just one person. As you compare Overland Park therapists, look for someone whose bio names the concerns, age groups, and therapy approach that match your needs.

In a mid-size market like Overland Park, you may find a practical mix of local offices and virtual appointments. Some families prefer in-person sessions, while others need the flexibility of virtual care when schedules, school, work, or caregiving responsibilities overlap. Session attendance can also vary. A therapist may meet with the full family, a parent and child, partners, or individual family members at different points. Before booking, review profiles for availability, consultation options, and how each therapist structures family sessions.

Therapy in Overland Park 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 are accepting new patients, check whether they take your insurance, and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before booking. You can compare family therapy, counseling in Overland Park, KS, relationship counseling, couples counseling, marriage counseling, and play therapy options, then 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.

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.
