Lalanea (pronounced Luh-Lane-Yah) has worked for years in case management, education, and foster care.

Between those degrees, she earned a Master of Public Affairs with a Nonprofit Concentration from UNC Greensboro.

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 Overland Park, KS
Searching for therapists in Overland Park starts with knowing what kind of support you want from therapy. You may be looking for help with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, work stress, or life transitions. As you compare Overland Park therapists, look for someone whose listed specialties, training, and therapy style match your needs. A bio can also show whether a therapist uses approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, or family therapy.
Overland Park has a steady range of therapy options, including therapists with offices near local neighborhoods and therapists who offer virtual appointments across Kansas. If getting to an office adds extra planning, virtual therapy can make it easier to fit care into your schedule. Beyond specialty, compare appointment times, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking can help you understand each therapist’s communication style and what a first session may include.
Therapy in Overland Park can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and see your estimated cost before you book. Headway helps you search for therapists who match your preferences, accept your plan, and are ready to take new patients. You can review bios, compare availability, 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.
