Therapists in Riley County, KS

I am a strengths-based counselor who values a collaborative and supportive therapeutic relationship. I provide a warm and safe place where adolescents and adults can find their own solutions to the issues that they are facing.

I most often work with clients who experience impacts from grief, trauma, anxiety, and depression.

Building a trusting relationship between client and therapist is a key component in the therapeutic process. I am here to create a safe space for clients to process their needs and discover tools and interventions that will improve their overall quality of life. I enjoy working with children who are displaying behavioral and social/emotional concerns while incorporating the family. I also have experience with multiple individuals that are displaying anxiety, relationship stressors, and/or difficulties with life transitions. Couples therapy is also an area of interest and I do work with this population as well.

We all know how it goes, life is nothing short of a rollercoaster with twists and turns that are very sudden. Sometimes you feel there is no end to the unfortunate surprises. But I am here to tell you there is more to life and there are many ways to turn those unforeseen surprises into something optimistic. Reasonably, it can feel very overwhelming and vulnerable to share your story with someone new but with a collaborative effort, we can focus on your strength and resilience to life circumstances. My intention is to meet individuals where they are in life and offer a safe space to grow.

I specialize in treating children (age 8+), adolescents, and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and trauma symptoms. I am here as a support to collaborate with you to establish a goal or goals to meet your needs. I have experience treating childhood trauma and have a certification in trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy to assist children in processing their traumatic experience in a healthy and non-damaging way. I utilize different therapeutic approaches to best assist the client.

Healthy Connections offers a wide scope of services. Each therapist provides something different. Just like our clients, we are diverse and have connections in various areas of life. We support you where your are, so that you can be where you want to be in life.

I focus on the capability and strengths of women. Women are faced with multiple roles in their lives often leaving them feeling overwhelmed and burned out resulting in anxiety and depression. I believe women are capable of anything however just because we are capable does not mean we should. We all need the reminder we are experts on ourselves, even when we do not feel we are. We are ENOUGH! I have been a mother for 26 years which has led me the ability to support other women in their motherhood and life journey. I applaud bravery which all clients exhibit when reaching out for help.

Therapy, to me, should feel like coming home to yourself. My idea of therapy is to partner with you as a cheerleader, an encourager, a challenger, someone who will fight for you to show up for yourself and for you to take up more space in this world. I am comfortable working with many different concerns and transitions. I am genuinely excited to journey alongside you.

We all go through difficult times in our lives, and sometimes we need to reach out to others during these times. I am here to help you navigate any struggles that you may be experiencing. My goal is to provide a warm, safe environment for you to process your emotions, grieve, cope, and heal. I believe that everyone has strengths that we can build on in therapy, and my goal is to work with you to use these strengths to reach your goals.

I focus on trauma initially because what I have found in over 6 years of work as a trauma therapist, is that so much of our present concerns and limitations is rooted in trauma exposure and history. This lends itself to unhealthy patterns of avoidance, hypervigilance/hyperarousal, disturbance in mood and cognitions. and being inundated with intrusions and flashbacks. Many patients that have struggled with years with anxiety and or depressive episodes really have suffered from trauma that has not yet been dealt with. T Fields Trauma Therapy is for you if this describes you!

Not all clients arrive to therapy with the same issues or the same rooting point, so therapy needs to be unique to each individual. I provide a space to establish how clients see therapy happening and I am there to help guide the process in a healthy manner. The space belongs to the client, not me.

My belief is that everyone deserves to be thriving throughout life, not just surviving. When our mental health starts impacting our daily activities and routines, it can be hard to see a way to improve the situation. I strive to provide a safe, non-judgmental, caring environment for my clients to share their current struggles. Together we can address your current concerns and develop a plan that will fit your goals.

I work with individuals between the ages of 13-65 on issues related to: Addictions, marital/relationship struggles, anxiety/depression, overcoming fear and shame, living an authentic and purposeful life, embracing vulnerability, military men/women/families and death/dying/grief. I also enjoy working with professionals struggling with Impostor Syndrome and other professional issues. I believe that optimal mental and relational health is first achieved by establishing healthy habits in the areas of nutrition, exercise, mindfulness/prayer/meditation, and social connections.

Are you running on fumes? Feeling like you are stuck, unmotivated, or just not in the headspace you want? Maybe you’re walking through a hard season of life as a parent, child, employer, or friend. I am here to help.

Welcome to my private practice in west Manhattan. My office conveniently located close to restaurants and surrounding shopping area. I focus on adults from age 18 to 70+.

My work with parents, children, and families so far has been some of the most rewarding work I've had the privilege of doing. During 5 years of experience working with children and their families in various contexts, I find that sometimes the focus shifts from changing behavior to repairing a connection to sometimes simply finding a new way to communicate. I find my expertise in helping children find their voice
