Amy Haas

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • St. Louis, MO


Hello, and welcome! I'm Amy Haas, a Licensed Professional Counselor with more than 20 years of experience helping children, adolescents, adults, families, and veterans navigate anxiety, ADHD, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, life transitions, and behavioral concerns.

Throughout my career, I've worked with people from many different walks of life, from youth involved in the juvenile justice system to formally incarcerated adults rebuilding their lives, as well as children and families in schools, intensive in-home programs, and community mental health. Those experiences reinforced something I believe deeply: people are far more than the hardest thing they've been through or the labels they've been given.

I believe meaningful therapy starts with authenticity, trust, and genuine connection. My goal as a therapist is to help you feel understood, build on your strengths, and create lasting positive change.

Whether you're preparing for motherhood, adjusting after delivery, balancing career and family, or navigating everyday stress, I strive to provide personalized, evidence-based care tailored to your goals.

My approach is warm, patient-centered, and collaborative. I take the time to understand your story, educate you about your treatment options, and develop a plan that aligns with your values and lifestyle. I believe the best outcomes happen when patients feel empowered to participate in their care and have a provider they can trust.

Hi, I'm Joanie! If you're feeling weighed down by trauma, anxiety, or painful life experiences, you don't have to navigate them alone.

Happy patient looking away

Find an expert who truly understands ADHD

Headway helps you stay on track with expert-guided support for ADHD — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an ADHD Therapist in Kansas City

Searching for ADHD therapists in Kansas City starts with knowing what kind of support you want. Therapists can help with executive function, time management, emotional regulation, organization, and CBT for ADHD, while psychiatrists may support medication management. Some people look for therapy, some look for medication support, and some work with both. If you need ADHD testing, an ADHD evaluation, or an ADHD diagnosis in Kansas City, look for a psychologist or psychiatrist whose profile lists assessment experience. Adult ADHD and pediatric ADHD can involve different needs, so review each therapist’s listed specialties before booking.

Kansas City has a range of therapy options, and virtual appointments can add more flexibility if office location, traffic, or scheduling affects your search. When comparing ADHD therapists, consider whether they are accepting new patients, offer appointment times that fit your calendar, and have experience with related concerns like anxiety or depression. Co-occurring concerns can shape the kind of support that feels useful. Reading therapist bios can help you understand their approach, session style, and whether they work with adults, children, teens, or families.

Therapy in Kansas City can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs, and Headway helps make that process clearer before you book. You can enter your insurance details to see therapists who take your plan and view estimated out-of-pocket costs upfront. From there, you can compare ADHD therapists in Kansas City, review profiles, and book directly when you’re ready.

If you're already taking psychiatric medication and considering switching providers, talk to your current prescriber before changing or stopping any medication — most psychiatric medications shouldn't be stopped abruptly. Anyone experiencing thoughts of self-harm or in acute crisis should call 988 or go to the nearest emergency department rather than wait for an outpatient appointment.
