Therapists Beginning With C in Kansas

One of the bravest things to do, is to walk through the shadows, remove the masks and welcome in your true self. You being here, demonstrates your ability to do just this! Therapy, is not a one sided conversation with a therapist hidden behind a clipboard, but instead a collaborative process between two humans. And I promise, I am as real as it can get (all quirks included.) My goal is to provide you a space to retell your story, build new meanings and achieve the life changes you are hoping for. You do not have to do this alone.

I help individuals and couples manage distressing feelings. These things arise from a variety of individual or relational circumstances involving conflict, disappointment, hurt feelings, sadness, grief, loss, or other emotional concerns. It can take time to discover the source and learn to heal. I have experience with trauma, attachment, relationship and communication patterns, grief and loss, parent-child relationships (even adult children), premarital and prenatal counseling, life transitions, as well as career selection. I hope my clients become more content and find meaningful pursuits as a result of our work together!

I'm passionate about working with individuals to help them process and cope with difficult emotions, thus leading them to adjust to their “normal.” My top priority is to empower my clients to empower themselves. I believe everyone is capable of being their own hero, but that, simultaneously, everyone deserves to have access to a safe, unbiased space to talk about hard things. I understand that healing can be messy and uncomfortable at times, which is where my love for a good laugh often comes into play. If you’re someone who copes with humor, I just might be the therapist for you; your sarcasm and dark humor are welcome here.

You and those you love live in scary and uncertain times. You likely find yourself in a world you barely recognize, having to get by with more needs on fewer resources. We have all began to see the results of living under constant fight-or-flight stress while an entire world struggles to get by without needed coping skills, adequate financial resources, or knowing where to turn for guidance.

Do you ever feel like you are wearing an emotional mask? After another long day of pretending, you break down, realizing how lonely you are & feel like nobody even cares. You have friends but you feel like you have no one to talk to about what is going on in your head. You feel stuck. You feel isolated. You want to feel safe, seen & heard.

We will attend to and nurture the deeper emotional forces within that we encounter, and use that to inform relationship dynamics that occur both in session and in your environment.
