Hi, I'm Adam Pearson. I have a Master's in Clinical Psychology and was trained by a Psychiatrist for two years. I use a variety of techniques and tools. Therapy is typically 8-16 weeks; around eight weeks, your symptoms should go from Severe to Moderate, and 16-18 weeks, moderate to mild. I practice from a faith-based perspective, but all are welcome. You can text, call, or email; I typically see a new patient within 48-72 hours. I had PTSD, Depression, and OCD and am now free. Now it's your turn! This is where you learn to love and like yourself, maybe for the first time. I have helped 1000s. This is your flying lesson!

Knowing that we can be loved exactly as we are gives us the best opportunity to grow into the healthiest people. I believe therapeutic relationships can help ease worries and struggles and restore hope, even during seasons of immense pain and suffering. Having a place where you can be heard and feel understood is essential while working through your feelings, emotions, thoughts, and past experiences. As our therapeutic relationship deepens, individuals gain insight into the presenting symptoms and patterns of behavior that initially brought them to see me.

Hello! I'm Vanessa, co-owner of Secure Counseling Clinics. I've lived in KC for 20 years with my husband, 4 children, 3 dogs, 2 cats, 1 bearded dragon, and a flock of backyard chickens! I'm a Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in both MO and KS, Nationally Certified Counselor, Certified Clinical Mental Health Counselor, and KS board-approved clinical supervisor. My heart work is helping humans with complex trauma. Couples, as well as parents and their children, work with me to form secure attachments with each other. I help clients experiencing relationship difficulties and those who experience pain from circumstances or losses.

Transitions are a natural progression in life, which at times can leave us feeling alone, overwhelmed, and terrified. Much like the seasons; our hopes, dreams, and relationships change. Maneuvering through these chapters in our lives can be a daunting process. In my experience, when a person can share their struggles within therapy, they can begin to better understand their thoughts, emotions, and how this influences their relationships with others.

Everyone experiences life stressors and at times, can become overwhelmed by them. I will work with you to help you navigate through the obstacles you are facing and hopefully overcome them. Whether you struggle with anxiety or depression, a particular life transition, or a more serious mental health condition, therapy can be beneficial for you. Let's work together to help you live your best life!

I work primarily with clients suffering from the effects of trauma, chronic shame, depression, and anxiety. Finding what you want in a therapist is difficult, a difficult task on top of the difficulties you are already facing. I encourage you to reach out with an email or a phone call for a free consultation so that we can determine how exactly to get you where you want to be.

Life is hard. So many of us struggle with issues related to anxiety, depression, and addiction making life feel even harder. Feelings of inadequacy and hopelessness are so common, leaving us overthinking and full of self-doubt. Fortunately, those distressing thoughts and feelings don’t have to be permanent. You are capable of developing emotional resilience and self-confidence to enable you to thrive in this chaotic world. You are worthy of good things.

Do you have dreams but aren't actualizing them? Are you lacking motivation or the push you need to get across the finish line? I am skilled at helping my clients identify goals and providing them with support. Are you noticing a negative pattern in your relationships with others? Let me help you learn new communication strategies and a more effective way to resolve conflict. Have you found yourself changing in a way you don't like?

Much like the seasons, transitions and change are a natural progression of life, potentially stirring up a great amount of distress in our lives, leaving us feeling alone, overwhelmed, and unsettled as our hopes, dreams and relationships can change. Maneuvering through these chapters can be a daunting process, as they are influenced, and so seen through the lens of our past experiences. I aim at being able to walk with you through this tumultuous time, and beyond this stage of your life, helping to unravel some of the painful patterns that negatively impact your relationships.

I have 13 years of experience working with people and families going through cancer, chronic illness, and grief. I also have research and coaching experience for aiding healthcare professionals and others in addressing burnout and compassion fatigue. I take a strengths and values-based approach, and see our relationship as a collaborative effort.

I believe that we all reach places in our lives where we are learning, unlearning and possibly relearning the existential areas of: who am I, what do I want, and what are my barriers & blind spots? Some may need support identifying or answering these questions cause they can be overwhelming. We often develop limitations in efforts to cope with grief, stress, control, hurt & relationships. So do you wonder,"What might be getting in my way or holding me back?", or "What I am avoiding?" or "Do I want to be more effective in my relationship?" Therapy can support you when you are answering these incredibly rich questions for yourself.
