If you're carrying the weight of depression, anxiety, or a past you haven't been able to fully

process, you don't have to figure it out alone. With more than five years as a Licensed Clinical

Social Worker, I work with adults and seniors who are ready to make sense of what they've been

through and start moving toward the life they want to build.

I have a particular passion for working with people navigating mood disorders like bipolar disorder,

trauma and PTSD, and the kind of emotional challenges men often face but rarely talk about. I also

work with couples who want to strengthen their connection before things fall apart.

I am deeply committed to helping individuals discover meaning and purpose in their lives. With more than four decades of experience as a counselor, I specialize in guiding clients through recovery from addictions, anxiety disorders, and PTSD.

I am also the author of Joy on the Same Page (2023), which outlines my Relational Intimacy approach.

I’m an affirming, open-minded therapist who works with adults navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, panic, stress, relationship challenges, identity concerns, and major life changes. I also support clients dealing with maternal mental health concerns, including the emotional weight that can come with pregnancy, postpartum changes, infertility, and adjusting to a new season of life.

Since earning my master’s in 2021, I have worked in mental health with both children and adults in settings including crisis care, which has deepened my understanding of how overwhelming life can feel when symptoms start affecting your relationships, confidence, and daily routine. My goal is to offer a space that feels warm, approachable, compassionate, and real.

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.
