Experiential Therapy in Andover, KS

Life can be tough! Do you feel like you had it all together & then someone pulled the rug from under you? Maybe you have previously experienced trauma & thought you moved past it. Now you find yourself feeling frustrated, isolated, & alone. Maybe you are finding yourself triggered by your kids, partner, parents, or friends. You love them, but the stressors have caused you to want to take a month-long vacation from them! You have tried dealing with your anxiety, anger, stress, all on your own but find yourself struggling to manage day to day responsibilities and stay afloat - yelling too much, working too much.

Our mission at Wichita Therapy Center is to support people in living powerful and fulfilling lives through self-awareness, understanding and personal choice. We emphasize utilizing the best of the whole person, mind, body and spirit. Life can be difficult at times. We can be faced with a variety of issues that leave us frustrated, overwhelmed with responsibility, or haunted by memories … sometimes getting outside support is all we need to get back on track. Sometimes we just need someone else who understands what we are going through and can help shed some new light on old problems. Therapy works! At Wichita Therapy Center, people are making life changing discoveries about themselves everyday, and it can happen for you too!

Hello, I am Amy Jacobs and I am a Licensed Clinical Psychotherapist. Being in this field for the past three decades, I hold a perspective which honors that each person is unique, worthy of dignity and respect while having a need to be understood within one’s individual life and experiences. I find that we all naturally seek to move towards growth and evolvement, towards meaning and purpose, yet sometimes we may struggle in seeking and understanding this in the various life path’s we may be on. Much of my professional walk has focused on fostering growth in the lives of many children and youth.

Day to day functioning can be a challenge to navigate. Life feels overwhelming if you have experienced trauma. Life events can make anyone feel anxious and angry as well as guilty and depressed. You or your child can get better with support and insight. I am here for you or your child if you are ready to experience life differently. My approach is strengths focused and supportive. We can work together when you feel ready to start.

Hey there! I’m a marriage and family therapist who enjoys working with individuals, couples, and families from various backgrounds and walks of life. I have experience working with people of various ages, identities, religious/spiritual beliefs, and sexualities. I really enjoy helping people define and achieve their unique goals and needs in therapy, and I strive to offer a relaxed environment where people can be themselves whatever that may look like.

Difficulty, challenges, loss, transition....all these circumstances happen to each one of us and sometimes to the point where the weight is too much to bear alone. In those moments, no one should have to walk unaccompanied. Seeking therapy for the most minor or significant reasons is the very first step in working towards a healthier, more fulfilling life.
