Therapists in Lawrence, KS

Even though we might live with a mental illness, we can live a full life! Anxiety, depression, traumatic experiences, substance use, grief… we may have these experiences in our lives, but they do not need to be in control. We can live a life focused on our values, with meaning, and courageous strength. Since 2012 I've had the privilege of walking with youth, adults, couples, and families, helping them create a life worth living. What we learn to accept can transform us and help us cultivate a rich and meaningful life.

Everyone faces challenges and struggles in life. Sometimes talking with a professional in confidence is beneficial and necessary for personal growth and overall health and wellness. You are not alone! You have taken the first courageous step in seeking help and support. I am a Licensed Clinical Marriage and Family Therapist and have over 20 years in providing therapy to individuals, groups, couples, and families. Call me for a free phone consultation. If I can't help or if I'm not the right fit, I can help you find the right therapist for you.

“We are all just walking each other home.” I believe that together, change can be made. Life presents us with challenges and it is our mission to learn and grow from those challenges. As a clinician, it is my passion to support you through this process. I am a Licensed Master Social Worker in the state of Kansas with a background in animal assisted social work, and crisis intervention. I work primarily with children, and adolescents with complex family dynamics.

Hello! I am Heather Eichman, LSCSW, LCAC, CCTP, CDBT. As a currently active mental health therapist for many years, I have added integrated coaching as an available service. While therapy focuses on treating mental health issues, coaching is an integrated, proactive approach that improves well-being, performance in life roles, and growth. This includes creating an action plan together to ensure long-lasting behavior changes. We also may focus on problem solving to assist you in navigating various life stressors through discovery of creative, healthy pathways to achieve your optimal wellness.

Accepting New Clients: I believe one of the most courageous things you can do is to reflect on your life story and acknowledge your barriers to living a life that aligns with your core values. As a clinician, I work with clients to create a blueprint on how to live a life that is filled with vitality and purpose. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who primarily works with married couples, young adults, and adolescents. Additionally, I teach an Intensive Outpatient Program for adolescents that struggle with anxiety and depression.

Do you feel like you are stuck in survival mode, barely keeping your head above water? Are you overwhelmed with guilt and shame or perhaps can't shake the feeling like you aren't quite enough? I understand you and am here to help. I specialize in working with self-worth issues as well as eating disorders, body dysmorphia, anxiety and depression. I also work with parents seeking help and guidance for their child that may be struggling with their mental health. Additionally, I have experience working with collegiate athletes and can offer services for any level of athlete looking for support in sport performance.

I am currently accepting new clients at the Lawrence and Leawood offices! I understand that everyone is struggling in some capacity to heal from past hurts, process life transitions, or learn how to feel confident about oneself. I enjoy working with teens, college-aged young adults, and adults. I have experience working with clients who experience anxiety, depression, self-harm, low-self esteem/confidence issues, and trauma.

I have worked as a therapist for 25 years and I have trained in numerous evidence based practices which allows me to offer my clients the treatment they need to get better. I am passionate about helping clients with anxiety, depression, trauma, health conditions, life transitions, and stress move towards creating and maintaining emotional wellness. I believe change is possible and through therapy people can and do get better.

Taking care of your mental health is just as important as taking care of your physical health! Life can be stressful, unpredictable, chaotic, frustrating, and constantly throwing us curve balls. Sometimes we just need help processing our thoughts and feelings or making important life decisions. Other times, we may be struggling with mental illness, substance use, grief and loss, relationship and family issues, trauma and abuse, identity issues or other serious problems that are keeping us from living a happy and productive life. During these times, reaching out for help may feel scary or embarrassing.

Are you an adult looking for help with Affair or Divorce Recovery, anxiety, career questions, or depression? Does your marriage need help recovering from infidelity? I offer daytime and evening hours. Do you have parenting issues that are frustrating you and just need some direction? Are you looking for pre-marital preparation or inner healing of past trauma? I also provide equine-assisted psychotherapy (therapy done by interacting with horses). Equine therapy is done offsite at a nearby location.

Hi and welcome. I would like to offer you improved insight, awareness, support, and coping strategies to suit your needs. I provide a strengths-based client-focused approach for a variety of mental health and addiction issues. I have worked in the mental health and addiction field for 9 years. I believe each person has unique strengths, and I've seen firsthand how people can make positive change utilizing them. My approach is supportive and direct, and I like to challenge you to be your best self.

Are you looking to deepen your understanding of yourself and the challenges you may be currently facing in life? Maybe you've already done a good amount of self-examination and generally know what the "issues" are, but you haven't been able to move past them and feel frustrated or stuck. Maybe you're really new to the idea of therapy and want a compassionate, open-minded person who can help you start to explore what you're thinking and feeling. No matter where you're at, therapy can be so helpful in opening the doors to a different way of being in the world. You deserve to have a life you love waking up to and feel masterful in!

Often times, I’ve noticed that people seeking therapy already intuitively know what they want, or even what their potential solutions may be – before stepping foot inside my office. What they may lack is the support towards making those desires a reality. That’s why my therapeutic approach is collaborative and centered around strengthening your voice and choice in your life. I won’t stand in front of you to pull you in this direction, or behind you, to push you in another; but rather you can find me walking beside you serving as your rock and partner in healing.

I treat the whole person with an integrated approach to assessment and treatment. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. It takes courage to take those first steps to overcome obstacles and seek out a more fulfilling, authentic, and joyful life. I am here to support & empower you in that journey. I am licensed in Colorado and Kansas with 30 years of professional experience. I have a wealth of experience in helping clients overcome past trauma, stress and anxiety, eating disorders, depression, & coping with life changes.

Are you facing difficulties in your life, such as anxiety, depression, grief or lack of motivation? Perhaps you’ve heard that working with your body and nervous system—also known as somatic therapy—can be helpful and bring more vitality to your life, help reduce stress, or heal past trauma. If so, then my approach may be a good fit for you. My goal is to collaborate with you to heal trauma, restore resiliency, and develop skills so that you can show up in your unique, beautiful life and shine. I specialize in working with the nervous system to help you get in touch with your true essence & aliveness.

Have you been feeling overwhelmed, burnt out, and/or frequently stressed? Are you ready to gain more awareness surrounding old, unhelpful patterns? Therapy may not only help with the improvement of mental, but physical health as well. I would love to help you achieve better overall wellness. I am a licensed clinical psychologist who works with adults (18+) and I primarily practice from a cognitive behavioral perspective. I also incorporate mindfulness techniques and deep breathing to help facilitate growth and progress in therapy. I offer teletherapy in numerous states and in-person therapy in Tucson, Arizona.

I believe that we all want to feel respected, valued, significant and safe. So much of our pain and confusion comes from our own (often subconscious) attempts to find this sense of security. While these attempts have helped us make it this far, they often prevent us from living the life we truly long for.

What does it mean to feel safety and connection? As individuals we strive to have our social, emotional, and physical needs met. We strive to advocate for equity with ourselves, friends, families, and societal systems. The journey towards safety and connection can be overwhelming, tiresome, and different for each person. Have you ever pondered questions like… where do I start? When was a time I felt safety and connection? Do I feel whole? If you have asked yourself or other’s the above question, you might be ready to start to find those answers for yourself.

Coming to therapy can be scary! My clients generally enjoy my gentle approach, curiosity and sense of playfulness in session. I work with adults from all walks of life and specialize in trauma healing and the LGBT+ community. My ideal client has skills to navigate daily life or may have "graduated" from CBT/DBT, and is now ready to understand themselves in a deeper way. My clients usually thrive when they come to therapy ready to finally heal the underlying wounds that have caused them problems for far too long.
