Elizabeth Penniston

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 5.3 mi away • Kansas City, MO


My name is Elizabeth Penniston, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with a degree from Saint Louis University. Throughout my academic journey, I dedicated myself to gaining both theoretical knowledge and practical experience, which led me to complete my practicum and supervision at a respected Domestic Violence organization. This experience has allowed me to work closely with individuals who have faced challenging and complex situations, further enhancing my skills in trauma-informed care, advocacy, and therapeutic support.

I am deeply committed to providing compassionate and effective mental health care, utilizing evidence-based practices, and fostering a safe environment for my clients. My work has instilled in me a profound understanding of the unique needs of those affected by domestic violence and the importance of empowering individuals as they navigate their healing journey.

Rebecca Rickard

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 5.3 mi away • Kansas City, MO


Welcome! My name is Rebecca and I specialize in helping those that have experienced trauma. My interest in therapy rooted from being part of a military family and noticing people that were left to sort through the pieces trauma left behind. I completed my education at the University of Missouri-Kansas City and developed a lot of impactful tools since. I worked with survivors of violence for 5 years while working with a variety of other populations in private practice. I have a passion for my own ongoing education and bringing what I learn to session. I enjoy connecting with people and recognizing we're all doing our best.
