I’m a licensed marriage and family therapist who specializes in working with individual adults. I support clients navigating ADHD, neurodivergence, emotional regulation, relationship patterns, identity, and life transitions. My work is trauma-informed, LGBTQ+ affirming, and grounded in the belief that therapy can help you better understand yourself, strengthen self-trust, and the clinical belief that any person can change course in life at any time.
I draw from approaches such as EFT, IFS, ACT, and integrative experiential techniques, tailoring our work to your unique needs and goals. Together, we’ll explore emotions, patterns, and strategies that help you feel more grounded, resilient, and connected to yourself and the relationships that matter most.
I have been working as a therapist for the past four years and have prior experience working in the child welfare system, as well as working as a school social worker. I enjoy working with pre-teens, teens, and adults.
I am seasoned therapist with over 10 years of experience. I have worked with a wide range of clientele.
I work with adults who are dealing with anxiety, depression, anger, relationship stress, trauma, substance use, and the pressure of trying to keep everything inside. Many of the people I work with are tired of bottling things up, reacting in ways they regret, or feeling like life has gotten off track. Some of my clients are trying to rebuild after rock bottom, others are learning that sobriety is just the start and want help creating healthier patterns, stronger relationships, and more stability in daily life. If you are ready for a new pattern, start with me.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Kansas. I have experience working with law enforcement, a strong history of assessing individuals in an active mental health crisis, and conducting individual, couples, family, and group therapy.
I provide compassionate, evidence-based psychiatric care for children, adolescents, and adults. I specialize in the evaluation, diagnosis, and medication management of ADHD, anxiety disorders, depression, mood disorders, trauma-related conditions. My goal is to create a supportive, judgment-free environment where you feel heard, understood, and empowered throughout your mental health journey.
I believe that every person's story is unique, so I take the time to understand your concerns, symptoms, lifestyle, and treatment goals before developing an individualized care plan. I incorporate medication management with supportive counseling and evidence-based therapeutic approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) techniques and Motivational Interviewing, to help you build practical coping skills and achieve lasting improvement.

My focus is on delivering personalized, compassionate care that supports meaningful, long-term success in both your mental health and daily life.
I have been married for 41 years and am a mother and grandmother. I have have an MSW degree and have been in private practice as a therapist for 27 years. I prefer serving adults and have a passion for individual and couples counseling.
I believe therapy works best when you feel understood, respected, and never judged. My approach is collaborative and practical, helping you develop skills that you can use outside of our sessions rather than simply talking through problems week after week. I primarily use Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), an evidence-based approach that helps people respond differently to difficult thoughts and emotions while taking meaningful action toward the life they want to build.
Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, relationship challenges, or overwhelming stress, my goal is to create a space where you can be honest about what you're experiencing and feel supported as we work toward lasting change. I strive to balance compassion with directness, offering both validation and practical strategies to help you move forward in a way that aligns with your values.

You’re the one who usually has everything under control, but lately, the "strong" version of you feels like a mask that’s getting too heavy to wear.

I provide a warm, judgment-free space where you can stop surviving and start thriving. My approach is patient-centered, trauma-informed, and evidence-based, tailored to move you toward a life where you feel present, connected, and capable.
I specialize in:

Factors to Consider When Choosing an LGBTQIA Therapist in Overland Park
Finding LGBTQIA+ therapists in Overland Park starts with identity-affirming care. Look for a therapist who clearly describes experience with LGBTQIA+ people, gender-diverse clients, affirmative therapy, or WPATH-informed care. This can matter when you want support for identity, relationships, family dynamics, anxiety, depression, trauma, or life transitions. A therapist’s listed specialties, training, and bio can help you see whether their approach matches what you want from care.
Overland Park has a steady mental health care market, and virtual therapy can expand your options beyond nearby offices. This can be useful when you want an LGBTQIA+-affirming therapist with specific experience, availability, or background. As you compare therapists, review whether they are accepting new clients, offer appointment times that fit your schedule, and provide virtual or in-person sessions. Reading bios can also show how a therapist talks about LGBTQIA+ care, communication style, and what a first session may include.
Therapy in Overland Park can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care easier to plan. Headway helps you search for LGBTQIA+ therapists in Overland Park who are accepting new clients, review detailed bios, check your insurance, and see your estimated cost before booking. You can compare fit, format, and availability, then book directly when you’re ready.
