Therapists in Kansas

I'm a Licensed Specialist Clinical Social Worker (LSCSW) and a Licensed Clinical Addictions Counselor (LCAC) licensed in the state of Kansas. I have over seven years’ experience working with adults providing individual therapy implementing Crisis Intervention, Solution Focused Narrative Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.  I earned my Masters in Social Worker at Wichita State University in May 2014. I have worked with individuals struggling with a variety of mental health concerns to include symptoms of depression, anxiety, Bipolar, personality disorders, and Schizophrenia related disorders. I have assisted those struggling with substance use disorders and have referred for inpatient and outpatient substance abuse treatment. If you are struggling with substance use, or are not sure, let's chat to learn what is going on and work on some healthy changes. ​ My approach to therapy is Humanistic, meaning I believe individuals are always in a state of becoming and striving towards being the best version of themselves. I aim to help empower my clients identify their strengths to help them achieve personal goals, while also working towards accepting that they are human and worthy of love, patience and forgiveness.  I enjoy hearing the stories my clients have to share and learning of the journeys they have traveled that have brought them to the here and now. I have been trained in providing Trauma Informed Care, so I aim to provide a sensitive approach to assisting individuals achieve their goals while also remaining vigilant to the  difficult circumstances that have thrown a wrench in plans made. I look forward to hearing your story and collaborating with you to help you be the best version of yourself.​ On the personal side I'm a boy mom, a dog mom, a wife, sister, daughter, and Army veteran. I enjoy cookouts, spending time with family and friends, reading, binge watching the latest hits and watching the latest blockbusters.

Hello, my name is Luke. I am a 38-year-old father and husband who has been counseling since 2013. I was in the military from 2003-2010 and previously worked at a veterans hospital. Along with my counseling education and experience with various individuals, I have a Master's Degree in Theological Studies. Studying theology helps me incorporate these beliefs into sessions.

Though I am formally trained in MI, MET, DBT, CBT, ACT, EMDR, and many other acronyms, my approach is to be constantly curious about your life. I like to ask difficult questions getting you to reflect on your thinking. I like to address behaviors both of us notice that interfere with what you want in life. You are the expert in your life. Therapy is not a teaching moment where I am right, and you listen, but rather something we explore together. Overall, therapy is a relationship. You should feel comfortable sharing whatever is on your mind with your therapist. Please, choose someone you connect with rather quickly. I look forward to meeting with you and viewing old, stagnant beliefs in your life differently.

How’s your stress level? If you’re anything like the millions of other people adjusting to significant changes over the last few years, it’s likely your stress has crept up over this time. With change and uncertainty as one of our only constants as of late, it makes sense that life might feel heavier now than it once did. I’m a Clinical Social Worker licensed in both Missouri (LCSW) and Kansas (LSCSW). I am active in the greater Kansas City area with over 18 years of experience in the field of human services. The people I have had the privilege of serving come from all walks of life and have encountered a myriad of personal and professional challenges. Over the course of my career, I have served adjudicated youth, children and families within the child welfare system, adults with identified substance use issues, and individuals with developmental and intellectual disabilities. Most recently, I have worked with adults to develop employment goals as well as strategies to achieve them. I have recently transitioned to providing therapy on a full-time basis and I work exclusively using telehealth/virtual sessions. I am eager to support adults experiencing job satisfaction concerns, self-esteem or confidence issues, depression, anxiety, unpacking past trauma, communication and relationship issues, family dynamics, grief and loss, and individuals in the LGBTQ+ population. My approach is warm and supportive as I believe in the dignity and worth of every person. I most often utilize cognitive-behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing techniques, and acceptance and commitment therapy, but am happy to tailor your treatment plan to your unique needs. Verbally processing the challenging things in life can make them significantly more manageable. Seeking therapy is such a vulnerable and brave thing to do and I'm inspired by that courage! Years ago as a young adult, I was drawn to the social work field out of a desire to help others. To me, nothing was more interesting in college than learning about people. One of my greatest joys is watching clients grow and evolve out of struggle. We all experience obstacles in life, and it is my honor to help you find new approaches to the many and varied problems that pop up. My commitment to you as a helping professional is to keep you and your values front and center and to leave judgment at the door. I believe therapy is a partnership and I’m so eager to partner with you! So, are you ready for this? I’m excited to meet you and I consider it a privilege to walk alongside you on your journey. I hope you’ll reach out so we can get something scheduled today!
