Therapist

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.

Dr. Thuy Boardman

Psychologist

Virtual • Kansas


I'm a licensed psychologist with over 21 years of experience. My clients are high-functioning, responsible people who've reached a point where pushing through doesn't work anymore. They need deeper understanding, not just more coping strategies. You might be here because you keep noticing the same relational patterns. Or you're navigating a major transition. Or family dynamics from decades ago are showing up in your current life. Maybe you've achieved external success but something feels misaligned. You want to understand the "why" behind your choices, not just learn to cope better.

Here's what I want you to know: You can have your shit together professionally and still need help personally. You can have your shit together personally and still need help professionally. Success in one area doesn't mean you've figured out all the others - that's part of us being human.

Dr. Ryan Hale

Therapist

Virtual • Kansas


I started out working in college sports as a trainer and eventually began consulting with athletes and coaches after graduate school. My career path later took me through 10 years with an ambulance service, 2 years as a community service officer and 4 years as a crisis counselor embedded with a police department. I've also spent a considerable amount of time teaching psychology as a college professor. Because of this rather unique skill set, I have a heart for athletes, rescue workers and students.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Kansas

Searching for therapists in Kansas starts with finding someone whose training matches what you want support with. Kansas has a wide mix of therapists across urban and rural areas, so available care may vary by location. You may be looking for support with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, or life transitions. As you compare therapists, look for specialties and approaches that fit your needs, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or trauma-informed care.

Location, format, and scheduling can shape which therapist is the right fit in practice. In Wichita, Topeka, Kansas City, and surrounding communities, some people prefer in-person sessions close to home or work, while others choose virtual therapy for more flexibility. You can also narrow your search by appointment availability, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading therapist bios can help you understand how they describe their style, what concerns they often support, and what a first session may look like.

The cost of therapy in Kansas varies, and using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower your out-of-pocket costs. Headway helps you search for therapists who take your insurance, see estimated session costs before booking, and choose from therapists who are accepting new patients. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, and you can enter your details to confirm your coverage for your location. From there, you can browse therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
