Therapists in Kansas

I'm a Licensed Masters Level Psychologist. I’ve devoted my career to the field of sexual abuse prevention. I specialize in the evaluation and treatment of individuals with problematic sexual behaviors. I work with individuals convicted of sexual crimes, those at risk, and teens who have displayed inappropriate sexual behaviors. I work with males who have a history of sexual behavior problems and those whose relationships have been adversely affected by sexual behaviors or pornography use.

Do you often feel overwhelmed, confused, or frustrated with your life? Do you feel you have little support? Perhaps you feel on edge and don’t know how to relax? Do you feel there isn’t enough time in the day? Or your world runs on chronic stress? Maybe you’ve noticed these feelings and have even tried ways to challenge them. Jumped into yoga, didn’t work. Read a self-help book, didn’t work. Sought advice from friends. They didn’t understand. Googled your symptoms. Yeah, that was a bad idea. If you find yourself saying yes, then you're looking at the right profile. Let me be your guide to balance and mental wellness.

I specialize in working with: Trauma, PTSD, Eating Disorders, Anxiety, Depression, Body Image, Perfectionism, low self-esteem, sexual abuse and ADHD. I utilize EMDR, DBT, CBT, self-compassion, mindfulness, and somatic therapies. For over a decade, I have been honored to play a role in my clients’ healing journey. I provide individual counseling services to individuals ages 25 and over. I practice through a trauma-informed, holistic, neuroscience lens, helping you to put words to what you are experiencing and learn how to understand the sensations you feel in your body, your emotions, and your thoughts.

There are times in everyone's life when we are challenged to the point with seemingly no solutions. Through my years working in the Emergency Department, the sexual assault abuse unit, as an instructor, and as a therapist coupled with life experiences, I have learned about resiliency. It is not about how one falls but how one lands. I truly believe the best investment anyone can make is in themselves. Through my work as a therapist, I assist others in finding their own way through turmoil so they may invest again in themselves.

I strive to provide a safe place for women to heal in the context of a caring, trusting therapeutic relationship. I work with all women, including those struggling with the effects of motor vehicle accident, sexual assault, social rejection, attachment injuries, family of origin injuries, medical trauma, disturbing memories, phobias and more. I treat anxiety and depression. In addition, I enjoy working with young adult women navigating stress, relationships, and boundaries. I regularly work with other helping professionals, such as counselors, nurses, and teachers, navigating their own trauma histories.

Passion...not everyone has it or even knows where to begin to find it. So much gets in the way of it, such as life, work, raising a family, running a business, being a single parent, saving a marriage, surviving grief...or just surviving. I want to help you reconnect with those parts of yourself that have been put aside, help to restore meaningful relationships, self-worth, self-respect, and to assist in finding passion in living, while overcoming obstacles of grief, addiction, trauma, guilt, or fear. Let's get started! I work from an Attachment framework, NARM, CBT, EFT and other modalities including Faith (when requested).

I believe all people were created with dignity and worth for relationships as beautiful masterpieces that are fragmented by both small and large traumas due to the brokenness of our world. My passion is to walk alongside others in their healing, equipping them with the tools they need to address their emotional, mental, physical, and spiritual goals in pursuing restoration and wholeness. My Christian faith lays the foundation to offer acceptance, grace, freedom, and confident hope for healing. My approach to therapy utilizes Attachment Theory, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, mindfulness and somatic work, and is systemic in focus.

I am interested in assisting people of all ages in reaching their fullest potential. Whether you are experiencing a difficult life phase, are a trauma survivor, or are navigating life with a persistent mental health diagnosis, I am here to partner with you.

Are you ready for a change? You are not alone! My practice is a warm, supportive and non judgmental place to gain insight and create positive change. We will work together to resolve your current struggles!

My joy comes from working with individuals at various stages and challenges of life; childhood, teens, college, and adulthood. I provide a playful and collaborative environment for adults, parents, and children alike looking to explore the tough stuff as well as the normal day to day bumps. My goal is to make every client and caregiver feel worthy and capable of well-being. I work with a wide variety of issues across the lifespan such as vicarious trauma in professionals, sexual and domestic abuse, childhood abuse or trauma, attachment trauma, anxiety, depression, and self-esteem.

In the nearly 20 years I’ve spent working in the field of mental health and trauma, I’ve deeply appreciated the honor given to me when being invited on the healing journey of a survivor. I believe a strong therapeutic alliance of empathy, compassion, and hope is the key to working together to address the challenges inherent in healing from traumatic wounds. I work with a strong stance of empathy that is directed and guided by various evidenced-based modalities as well as the most recent research in the neuroscience of trauma.

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!

Most clients seek out therapy because something or possibly many things aren't feeling good or working out well in their lives. They are looking for healing, for worth, for growth, for change. They need a safe and trusting person and an environment where they can feel heard, can process, feel, collaborate, make sense of, and make changes to improve their lives. They are looking for someone to listen and engage without judgement but also to challenge them when necessary. Therapy is about a collaborative relationship that allows a person to open their heart and their mind to healing.

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 am honored to have had the privilege of working with many amazing people over the past 25+ years. I specialize in working with trauma and abuse, PTSD. I also work with Depression, Bipolar, Anxiety disorders, OCD, and Adjustment disorders. I use a variety of treatment modalities with a psychodynamic approach including EMDR, ACT, CF-CBT; most importantly is the relationship and trust felt between the client and myself. I believe in the resiliency of the mind, body, spirit, and I am thankful to have the opportunity to walk beside those while they find their way to peace and happiness.

Hi, I'm Katelyn at Sunflower Counseling KC. I am passionate about providing trauma-informed care, and in this therapeutic space you will be met with acceptance, empathy, compassion, and truth. With nine years of experience in the field, I am dedicated to providing a safe and supportive environment for my clients to explore their thoughts and feelings. My approach is collaborative, focusing on building a strong therapeutic relationship that fosters your growth and healing.

I specialize in working with ages 15 and up. I offer a non-judgmental space that allows clients to express themselves and be open in session. I started as an educator and then a high school counselor prior to branching off into private practice. I enjoy helping individuals work through their difficult times and grow into who they desire to be. I don’t believe that a person needs “fixed” but more that you just need support while you grow and shift during a challenging time. I also enjoy helping couples reconnect and learn how to be the best partner they can be while keeping communication and intimacy intact.
