Life can feel overwhelming when you're managing anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, physical health concerns, or trying to navigate a major life transition. You may feel stuck, emotionally exhausted, uncertain about the future, or disconnected from yourself and the life you want to create. I work with adolescents, adults, and seniors facing anxiety, depression, women's issues, identity concerns, family stress, physical health challenges, grief and loss, panic symptoms, trauma, and major life changes. Many of my clients come to therapy seeking a supportive space where they can better understand themselves, process difficult experiences, and develop healthier ways of coping. Together, we'll explore what's weighing on you, identify strengths that may have been overlooked, and build practical tools that support healing, resilience, and meaningful personal growth. My goal is to help you feel more confident, empowered, and capable of navigating life's challenges while creating a life that feels authentic and fulfilling.

Therapist

ADHD is my superpower and I enjoy helping clients make sense of the chaotic mind. If you are constantly overthinking before bed or feeling paralyzed by your daily to-do list, we will work together to break that cycle. I understand past experiences, often unidentified traumas, shape how we show up in present interactions. Life transitions can be difficult, and it is my pleasure to assist you whether you are changing careers, expanding or downsizing in family roles, or just trying to decide what's next. Life stressors are inevitable, but they don't have to be anxiety-filled experiences.

Therapist

I've been doing this work long enough to know that no two people heal the same way. My practice is built around that reality. I work with clients from childhood through late life — across trauma, grief, PTSD, ADHD, anxiety, and the particular kind of exhaustion that comes from carrying too much for too long. I'm EMDR-certified and trained in Neurofeedback and Childhood Complex Trauma, and I hold a gerontology certification for clients working through aging, loss, or end-of-life transitions. I don't use a one-size-fits-all model — I listen first, then we figure out together what kind of support will actually help you move forward.

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.
