I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) with over eight years of nursing experiencing, including more than six years in the intensive care. My experience caring for patients during some of the most difficult moments of their lives, along with my own journey with therapy and mental health treatment, inspired me to pursue a career in psychiatry.

I work with adolescents and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, stress, and life transitions. I also enjoy helping children with anxiety, depression, and ADHD. My goal is to create a compassionate, judgment-free space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to make meaningful changes.

For 30 years, I've worked inside schools alongside children and adolescents — as a social worker, an advocate, and someone who genuinely understands how young people think, struggle, and grow. I know what anxiety looks like in a middle schooler. I know how ADHD shows up in a classroom. And I know that the kids and families who need support deserve to get it without spending years trying to find relief.

I'm a Licensed Specialist Clinical Social Worker — a credential I earned in November 2025, after raising two kids of my own while completing every requirement along the way. It took longer than I planned. I wouldn't change it. That experience shapes how I show up for every client.

I hold a Master's in Social Work from the University of Kansas and work as both a school social worker and a therapist, giving me a perspective on young people and families that's grounded in their real, daily lives.

I started out working in college sports as a trainer and eventually began consulting with athletes and coaches after graduate school. My career path later took me through 10 years with an ambulance service, 2 years as a community service officer and 4 years as a crisis counselor embedded with a police department. I've also spent a considerable amount of time teaching psychology as a college professor. Because of this rather unique skill set, I have a heart for athletes, rescue workers and students.

You're navigating something hard right now, whether that's anxiety, depression, grief, a major life transition, or stress that just won't let up. You don't have to figure it out alone. I'm Joseph, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with more than 20 years of experience helping people move through uncertainty with confidence. My work is grounded in a simple belief: when we accept change and prepare for it thoughtfully, we transform it from a source of crisis into an opportunity for growth .

Everyone experiences seasons of uncertainty, loss, transition, or feeling stuck. Whether you're navigating anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, life transitions, chronic illness, or overwhelming stress, you don't have to do it alone. My role is to provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you can better understand yourself, build resilience, and develop practical strategies to move forward with confidence.

In addition to providing therapy, I work as a Care Progression Social Worker in a hospital setting, where I help patients and families navigate some of life's most difficult moments. This experience has reinforced my belief that meaningful change happens when people feel heard, supported, and empowered to make thoughtful decisions. I earned my Master of Social Work and am licensed in both Missouri and Kansas. My goal is to meet you where you are and help you create lasting, meaningful change at a pace that feels right for you.
