Hello! My name is Taryn and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. I have been working in the mental health field for the last three years and recently became a full-time therapist. I enjoy working with adults who are experiencing recent life changes, depression, anxiety or just needing additional support! These past two years have brought its own set of challenges. I am committed to helping individuals navigate difficulties and building skills to better manage symptoms. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or inquires about appointment availability.

Please note: I am NOT accepting new clients at this time. It can be a daunting and scary process to face challenges that life brings. You may be feeling like the lotus flower: stuck and surrounded by muddy murky waters. It is possible to navigate the murky muddy waters much like the lotus flower that rises up and blooms above the water toward the sun. I would be honored to walk with and collaborate with you, to help you get unstuck, find effective ways to cope, heal, and transform.

Relationships: especially couples and parent/child relationships, including co-parenting. I have received advanced post-graduate training in Marriage & Family Therapy. I am licensed to use the Gottman marriage program, internationally recognized as a researched based program with successful interventions for strengthening marriages. (http://gracestoutcc.com). I hold a certificate as a Play Therapist and specialize in co-parenting during marriage and divorce with advanced training with Gary Neumann of The Sandcastles Program seen on Oprah.

I believe everyone alive deserves to have the best possible life. All of us suffer from the trial and tribulations of life, some of which we bring on ourselves, and some are consequences of others behaviors. All of us learn important lessons from life, and I believe that psychotherapy helps people to gain significant insight and awareness on the most important dimensions of their mental functioning. Many of us suffer alone in the depths of loneliness and despair. It is my mission to help and guide others with knowledge, and encouragement to confront their situations, and problems. I

I believe change is possible for all of us, and I have seen that change develop in many clients over the course of a collaborative treatment. I believe that, working together, we can develop a rich and fulfilling understanding of each client’s personality. I have training in psychodynamic psychotherapy and psychoanalysis, and I use that frame to provide an environment that promotes healing, awareness, and growth. I have also used components of cognitive behavioral and dialectic behavioral services in outpatient group therapy, and I blend these tools with the psychodynamic frame to provide an individualized approach.

Are you an individual that struggles to explore their emotions and come to terms with past trauma, current fears, and broken relationships? Are you a couple or and family that needs help facilitating the creation of secure lasting bonds and reinforcing any preexisting positive bonds? Are you an individual that needs a non-judgement safe place to process and heal from the stress of life, or wants to grow mentally, emotionally and spiritually?

Together, we thrive from learning, loving, and appreciating our differences. Therefore, your race, ethnicity, physical/mental ability, religion, ethnicity, national origin, status as a veteran, sexual orientation, age, sex, marital status, parental status, ancestry, gender identity, gender expression, genetic information, and socioeconomic status MATTERS! I am trained to work with both youth and adults and I am passionate about meeting individuals where they are. My goal is to help each client reach their desired goal by providing support and evidence-based techniques.

Are you struggling with who you are, your worthiness, shameful experiences and your right to live a joyful life? If so, there is a successful way to begin healing, moving forward and taking back your power. Asking for help can be a difficult task that takes strength and courage; both of which you are capable of! Together, I hope that I can help to empower you to work through the trials and tribulations of life and begin to see the world in a new and vibrant light.

I have been counselor for over 25 years, and enjoy working with a diverse group of people. I am eclectic, welcoming with all forms of spirituality and lifestyles.

I have additional specializations in Addictions and ASD, and am trained in The Listening Program (www.advancedbrain.com).

I use a goal oriented approach to help individuals, couples and families who are struggling with a relationship or a challenging life transition. Many times these struggles cause anxiety, depression, anger or resentment. I strive to provide a safe, comfortable and compassionate environment to help my clients work through these challenging times. As a Certified Prepare-Enrich Facilitator, I provide premarital and marital enrichment counseling to couples. I am also a trained Discernment Counselor.

With nearly 10 years of experience practicing therapy, I have developed a passion for helping young adults deal with life's many challenges. Whether it's communicating more effectively with friends/family, coping with stress, managing depression or anxiety, or something else, I'm here to help you navigate life with greater ease. We could all use some extra guidance and support especially during these difficult times. My ideal client is someone who is open to change and prefers a more relaxed therapy experience, as opposed to an overly structured one. An appreciation for humor is also helpful.

I’m here to help you actualize the life you have been striving for! I believe in the empowerment and recovery of all individuals. I understand the vulnerability it takes to reach out for help and I commend you for taking that step today. I utilize a positive eclectic therapeutic approach to meet my clients where they are, build rapport and help you identify goals to improve your quality of life.

As we know all too well, life is full of ups, downs and everything in between. Navigating life's obstacles, whether joyful or scary, includes the need for mindful and intentional steps. At Mindful Connections Therapeutic Services, I am dedicated to helping you navigate whatever journey life has thrown your way. As an LMFT, I find importance in families and connection to help with the healing process. I am committed to walking beside you as you help deepen a mindful connection with yourself and foster deeper connections with those who are important to you.

Are you walking through a season of grief and loss? Have you been worried about the future, waiting for the other shoe to drop? I know that feeling: depression, anxiety, preoccupation with fear. This can be terrifying. You don't have to walk this journey alone. My life experience and professional training have equipped me to come alongside others in a season of despair to cultivate the tools for rediscovering joy, confidence, self-esteem, and purpose. I believe empathy and vulnerability are the secret ingredients to establishing trust and healing. The Porch Swing KC believes that life is the occasion and that your healing matters.

I consider it a privilege to walk alongside individuals, couples, and families as they experience personal and relational difficulties including marital conflict, depression, anxiety, trauma, loss, or simply a feeling of "being stuck." My goal is to create a safe, affirming place for you and/or your partner to feel heard and understood and to find the tools you need to move forward.

I have a passion for working with people with complex trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, as well as other struggles. I am certified in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing) and utilize that modality in addition to traditional therapy to help people process and overcome their challenges. I use a direct, structured, and goal oriented approach while also offering hope and compassion when working with my clients. EMDR is most well known for treating trauma, but I have found success in treating OCD and various other phobias also.

I serve a wide array of clients. These include individuals, families, and children. My background, skills, and experience lend themselves particularly well to younger clients. My practice most often addresses issues of anxiety, depression, trauma, grief/loss, relationships, anger management, attachment, divorce, emotion regulation, parent-child relationship, sibling conflict, self-esteem, blended families, and adoption.

My name is Michelle Hoskins and I have been working as a therapist since 2014. In this time I have gained experience in various levels of care including inpatient, PHP, IOP and outpatient. I have learned that as humans, we are amazing and resilient. We struggle with from time to time with big things and little and at the end of the day all of our struggles bring meaning and purpose to our lives. We deserve the opportunity to be listened to and feel validated in our struggles and know that someone cares and is willing to walk through these challenges with us.
