Connect with Coping Skills therapists in Prairie Village, KS

I understand it takes time to learn and incorporate effective coping skills to begin the healing journey.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of Pennsylvania. I am also a Licensed Specialist Clinical Social Worker in the state of Kansas. I have worked in the mental health field for over 20 years, and I embrace supporting adults and adolescents by empowering individuals through a collaborative care model.

I understand how isolating it can feel to not belong. My own experiences as a "black sheep" shaped my passion for helping others embrace their uniqueness and find their place in the world. I'm compassionate, nonjudgmental, and deeply committed to helping you feel seen, accepted, and understood.

I am happy that you are here. I love the work I get to do. I believe that we all have a unique and interesting story. It is in sharing our stories, we can receive care and comfort, and it allows me to offer empathy and challenge so that we can begin creating a plan for you.

I have dedicated a large portion of my life to working within the helping and human service field. I am a firm believer in approaching the therapeutic process by “starting where the client is at” and letting them lead the process of their mental health journey.

Life can be hard, and at times the challenges we face can feel overwhelming or isolating. Counseling can be a helpful and supportive space to process life's struggles, ask hard questions, and experience healing.

I specialize in trauma-focused care and work with individuals of all ages. I focus on anxiety, depression, ADHD, behavior disorders, trauma, relationship issues, divorce, and areas related to adoption and foster care. My goal is to create a safe space where you can openly explore your thoughts and feelings.

We all experience stressful things in life, and when there are just too many stressors creating an imbalance, it can be difficult to be kind to ourselves. I work to help others learn how to be kinder to themselves, solve problems, regulate emotions, and feel better about the way they are navigating life.

Few of us make it through life without some degree of trauma. I am trained and experienced in working with complex trauma, PTSD, and the pain from bullying and rejection. I want to partner with you to understand what happened to you and how that has impacted your development and relationships.

I am about creating a warm, accepting therapy relationship to create space for you to talk candidly. If you are seeking understanding, I can help you talk through your experiences, thoughts and emotions. If you are seeking change, I can help you identify options to create change that you value.

I offer a calm, encouraging space where you can feel supported and begin making sense of what you’re experiencing. If you’re thinking about starting therapy, I’m here to meet you exactly where you are and walk with you, knowing how much courage it takes to be open and vulnerable.

I believe trust, compassion, and respect are essential for effective treatment. I will create a safe and non-judgmental space for healing and change.

Starting therapy is a courageous first step, and I want to commend you for taking it. I'm a therapist dedicated to helping individuals navigate life’s transitions, heal from past wounds, and move toward meaningful growth. My approach is warm, collaborative, and empowering—I believe in creating a supportive space where you feel truly heard.

I am a licensed clinical therapist with over 20 years of experience supporting women. I bring warmth, compassion, and genuineness into my work while helping clients with anxiety, depression, infertility, and major life transitions. My hope is to help you feel grounded, reconnect with yourself, and create space for healing.

My therapeutic style is warm, engaging, and genuine. I take an eclectic approach to counseling in which I enjoy working with people from all different lifestyles. I help people work through depression, anxiety, addictions, relationship difficulties, stress management, identity challenges, and emotional awareness.

I help individuals, couples, and families navigate life's challenges and find happiness and fulfillment. Whether you're struggling with relationship issues, emotional regulation, or life transitions, I provide a safe and non-judgmental space to explore your emotions and build stronger connections.
