Anxiety Therapists in Wichita, KS

*My style of helping is best described as interactive and effective. As we begin our work together I am not focusing on "what is wrong with you," but more, "what is right with you?" I utilize a variety of healing techniques with a concentration in education, insight, and behavior change. I believe if you understand what is happening in your brain and body, then you will be able to make the life changes you’re seeking.

I believe that in order to get the most out of therapy, the client needs to work in collaboration with the therapist. Our childhood and current stresses can affect our mental health. I grew up in Russia, and provide therapy in English and Russian. I work with clients ages 5 and up. I work with family systems that are experiencing anxiety , depression, ADHD, ODD, trauma, and relationship and family issues. I have been trained in sand tray therapy and EMDR.

Our lives can often feel like they are outside of our control; like someone or something is writing our story for us. Whether it may be depression, anxiety , trauma, work, or a toxic relationship among many other factors, it is important to recognize that you are capable of regaining control over your life.

My therapeutic environment provides a safe, relaxing and non-judgmental space so that my Clients feel comfortable talking about their life stories and struggles. I work with my Clients to help them develop the skills that will help them throughout their lives and I have worked with a wide range of Clients and presenting issues. I am currently offering therapeutic services for Individuals, Couples, Veterans, Groups and Families and I work with ages 6 and up. I enjoy helping my Clients learn new techniques and skills to help them work towards improvement and establishing a better way of life.

There are many things in the world around us that elicit fear, anxiety , and worry. Sometimes those things are easy to point out. Other times, we may find it difficult to know what is causing us to feel a certain way. The truth is that many of us struggle with anxiety , depression, and other issues on a daily basis. One of the things that can help us overcome those scary thoughts and feelings is to confront them and process them. Doing this alone can be overwhelming, that's where I come in. As a therapist, I strive to help restore hope to your heart, and peace to your mind.

I am a Clinical Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who believes each person and each family is unique. The belief that all people deserve and can have a better outlook and hope in life is my driving force in therapy.

Feeling anxious, depressed or hopeless? You're not alone. Many people carry around an untold story that is often filled with pain and regret. As a result of unresolved pain, traumas and negative beliefs, poor mental and physical health begins to manifest. Please know that no matter where you are, or how far you’ve traveled off the path, you can still begin again. The journey of self discovery and transformation starts with changing our thoughts. " If you can change your mind, you can change your life". By learning to speak the language of the mind, I can help you live the life you want, with purpose and meaning.

Going through tough experiences is hard enough. Going through tough experiences while feeling alone and unconnected can be even more daunting. I take a person focused approach to therapy in which I will walk with you and your child through your journey. I integrate play with the therapeutic alliance while treating several disorders including depression and anxiety , and trauma related disorders. Walk through this tough journey with someone on your team.

Our individual experiences in life can bring us many ups and downs, including feelings of intense anxiety and depression. This can be overwhelming and greatly affect our daily lives. Please know that you are not alone and I would honor the opportunity to help you find new hope and tools that empower you to cope and feel better.

Living with symptoms of stress, anxiety , or OCD can feel challenging and overwhelming. You may notice yourself reviewing past situations or worrying about the future. Perhaps you deal with fears about situations or events that prevent you from experiencing life to the fullest. You might engage in compulsive behaviors in an effort to alleviate stress related to intrusive thoughts. Skin picking and hair pulling (and other Body-Focused Repetitive Behaviors) can also be associated with anxiety . Often these behaviors have been used for long periods of time and can feel very difficult to stop.

What else could go wrong? Why do I keep trying? What's the use? I guess this is just how things will always be. No one understands me. I don't fit in. My family doesn't care. Relationship issues, trouble communicating, trouble processing, or still trying to find yourself? Are these questions or thoughts that you struggle with? Well, guess what? You are not the only one. So, now, Imagine yourself with a huge smile, and gut busting laugh that is authentic and genuine. Not like the ones you have faked for so long. Think of that laughter and smile, without feeling all the anxiety , depression, etc..... sounds great right?

I have a passion for working with all clients towards living a more authentic, enjoyable life. I believe that each person has a unique experience and therapy must be customized to meet those individualized needs. I work to create and hold a safe space for my clients that is non-judgmental, hopeful and encouraging. In taking a client-centered approach, I believe that vulnerabilities can be explored, strengths and resilience can be identified and meaningful change can happen. Even in the smallest change, true healing can begin.
