Therapists in Haven, KS

I believe everyone has a unique story and it is in sharing these stories that I can offer empathy and hope to my clients. I received my Masters of Arts in Marriage, Couple and Family Counseling and my certification as a Play Therapist, and work extensively with adolescents, teens and young adults. My experience includes working with all ages and stages of divorce, co-parenting and step parenting relationships, grief and loss, anxiety, stress and depression, trauma, domestic violence and self harming behaviors. My work also includes assisting with behavioral, adjustment and attachment issues. With teens I have worked with self harm (non-suicidal), divorce of parents, adjustment disorder, depression, anxiety, handling expectations in a healthy way, understanding boundaries, among other things. I utilize therapy modalities and treatment approaches including client-focused, experiential, mindfulness and cognitive behavioral therapies. I am committed to my client and the therapeutic process of helping them achieve their goals and gain satisfaction and joy in all aspects of their lives.

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 and congratulations on taking this courageous and hopeful step toward wholeness. My name is Stephanie Risinger and I'm a Licensed Clinical Marriage and Family Therapist. Don't let the title fool you! Most of my work is with individuals. Being a marriage and family therapist simply means I have a specialized understanding of how our personal struggles and mental health challenges can affect relationships. I have 13 years of clinical experience in working with a wide range of concerns and mental health challenges. Examples include (but not limited to) grief/loss, life changes, relationship challenges, anxiety, depression, infertility, postpartum mood and anxiety disorders, and co-dependency. I received my Master of Science degree in Counseling Psychology from California Baptist University in 2009. In addition, I served as an adjunct professor of psychology for five years at California Baptist University and has been a featured speaker at numerous community events, organizational meetings, trainings, and retreats. I look forward to connecting with you.

I have been a licensed therapist for 10 +years. I have helped adults as individuals that are seeking someone they can trust, to help them attain their goals. Having a therapist that you are comfortable with is key. Therapy can be short-term and sometimes the issues you are facing require a journey that takes more time. What do you need help with, and what can I help you with, to find solutions that work for best for you? Partnering with a therapist can really make a difference. I am non-judgmental and accepting. Many people are struggling now with isolation or no support system. It is not uncommon to need more support at any point of your life. Therapy is here to help you feel better when stuck. It is not uncommon to feel ashamed, sharing with family and friends while needing extra support. Therapy is a great tool to help work through issues when you don't know where to turn. Every client will be treated with respect and dignity. It's not about "fixing you", but to help you, be empowered and work together to make a plan that makes your life better. Therapy is most beneficial when matched with the right professional. It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you. I've worked as a therapist in the following settings: College Counselor In-Home Therapist Hospice House Domestic Violence Shelter My undergrad and Master's program were both for me to attain my status as LSCSW in Kansas, and LCSW in Missouri. I look forward to working with you! Kimberly Marcos, LSCSW, LCSW
