""Survive, Grow and Thrive: Tapping into your Internal Light of Strength Through Growth and Renewal". Using various mental health perspectives, utilizing specific techniques to create the best approach for you, therapy involves a partnership for transitioning through obstacles interfering with your ability to thrive in life and create growth. Therapy includes a spirit of openness, acceptance and genuine support around life experiences.

"***Accepting New Clients*** Emotional healing, personal growth, improving relationships, and creating fulfilling connections is my passion. I specialize in relationships in all their various forms. Oftentimes relationships can be intense, volatile, and fragile but I’ve helped many people move into spaces of fulfillment, peace, and recovery. Supporting you on the journey to self-discovery, healing, and reaching your goals is what I do best. I offer a sense of hope in often seemingly hopeless situations and I believe that life is about more than just surviving. "

"My experience with working with clients of a variety of ages and needs has contributed to a passion in treating clients with trauma histories and rocky transitions. Most of my experience has been with children, adolescents, and adults who have experienced trauma in their past and are wanting to move forward in their lives to meet their goals. So often, anxiety, mood swings, and depression are tied to these trauma histories. Moving forward can bring much freedom and relief from these symptoms. I've been told by many clients that they feel safe and accepted with me as their therapist. "

"I envision therapy much as a road trip-as the client you are in the driver's seat. You determine our destination (goals), our speed, and when we need to stop and review where we've been, the progress we've made, and our strategy going forward. As your therapist, I help to read your maps (identifying core emotional issues, understanding significant life events, and identifying ways you may feel your life is out of balance) and help you to move forward. Together we will work to identify coping mechanisms which no longer are effective and to develop new, effective skills"

"I am a partner at Amend Neurocounseling, a brain-based clinic that does things differently. I work with kids who struggle in academic, behavioral and social areas. Parents are often pointed toward medication. I offer a different approach. I blend neurofeedback with talk therapy, play therapy and parenting interventions. Neurofeedback is a powerful and painless tool that helps the brain learn to regulate itself. A regulated brain is less reactive, learns better, rests better and relates better."

"I am passionate about helping my clients achieve balance with their body, mind, and spirit. My own life and personal growth experiences have helped me in my work with others. I believe in tailoring my approach to meet the needs of each client and am experienced in addressing a variety of issues. I look forward to helping you in your journey."

"The journey towards healing can feel overwhelming or impossible, but with support and guidance, desired change and growth can be achieved. I believe an important part of therapy is creating a safe and open environment. I strive to build a strong trusting relationship so you are able to learn, grow, and be vulnerable in order to start the healing process."

"Robert A. Feuer, MA, LCP, (Bob) is a Licensed Clinical Psychotherapist with over 30 years of clinical experience helping people change and grow to improve their lives and relationships. I am President-elect of the Greater Kansas City-Topeka Psychoanalytic Center where I also serve on the Psychoanalytic Institute teaching faculty. I create a warm, safe, and therapeutic environment for adults and adolescents struggling with mood, anxiety, adjustment, and relationship issues. We are products of our genetics and environment, and we cause neither. Our task is to make the best of the life we were given. If our default, automatic-pilot ways of being in the world no longer work for us, counseling with an understanding and experienced psychotherapist can help."

"I believe psychotherapy is a mixture of psychoeducation (providing information to help people develop new coping and relationship skills), emotional processing (learning to identify and work through uncomfortable feelings), and corrective emotional experience (using the counseling relationship as a safe place to experiment with new interpersonal skills). I utilize a mixture of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (addressing how our thoughts and beliefs impact our emotional experience, self-image, and behavior); Family Systems Therapy (helping people gain insight into characteristic relationship patterns); and Psychodynamic Psychotherapy (understanding how ways of coping developed earlier in life may not serve us well in the present)."

"I believe every person is created to be self confident and emotionally whole. I help each client leverage specific therapy approaches, tailored for their unique situation, in order to experience the transforming power of life change. I treat individuals, couples and families facing a variety of life issues such as depression, anxiety, relationship distress, parenting problems and life cycle changes. One of my passions is working with women that want to discover their true identity and build their self worth. I have lived with a chronic illness since childhood, which helps me relate to those suffering both physically and emotionally."

"Think no one gets it? Think everyone but you has this coping "thing" worked out? Think again: You are not alone in your struggle. Many people walk around thinking "what's wrong with me?" and put up barriers to deep, genuine, and lasting connection with others. The truth is that your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors make sense given your unique life experiences. Together, we will work to understand why you do what you do, and how to "do you" in a way that works to foster authenticity in relationship to yourself and others."

"Would you like to feel confident about how you are handling yourself in your key relationships? I believe that nothing affects our sense of well being and self confidence more than our ability to think clearly about what is going on in those relationships and how best to react and respond to others. Anxiety is the most common emotional challenge that we all face. While we cannot prevent it, the good news is that we can learn to manage anxiety with a variety of straightforward skills that are easy to understand and use, including mindfulness."
