Hello! I’m Kayla, a therapist serving children, adults, couples, and families in Kansas and Missouri. Feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or constantly dealing with stress at home or in your relationships? I help clients manage ADHD, improve communication, and create more balance in daily life. I specialize in child therapy and parenting support, helping kids with ADHD, behavior challenges, and big emotions build focus, emotional regulation, and healthier coping skills. I also support parents with practical tools to feel more confident and less overwhelmed.
In addition to working with children, I help adults navigate ADHD, anxiety, and burnout, and work with couples to reduce conflict and strengthen connection. My approach is warm, direct, and collaborative, using CBT, solution-focused, attachment-based, and trauma-informed therapy. Together, we focus on real-life strategies that help you feel more in control.
If you’re looking for a child therapist in Kansas or Missouri, parenting support, or adult and couples therapy, I’d be happy to connect.
