I’m a licensed marriage and family therapist who specializes in working with individual adults. I support clients navigating ADHD, neurodivergence, emotional regulation, relationship patterns, identity, and life transitions. My work is trauma-informed, LGBTQ+ affirming, and grounded in the belief that therapy can help you better understand yourself, strengthen self-trust, and the clinical belief that any person can change course in life at any time.

I draw from approaches such as EFT, IFS, ACT, and integrative experiential techniques, tailoring our work to your unique needs and goals. Together, we’ll explore emotions, patterns, and strategies that help you feel more grounded, resilient, and connected to yourself and the relationships that matter most.

Life doesn't come with a roadmap — but building one is exactly what we do together.

I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over 17 years of experience working with youth, adults, families, and military communities across school, clinical, and community settings. I've sat with people in some of the most demanding circumstances imaginable — from inpatient mental health facilities to active military bases — and I've learned that what helps most isn't a script. It's connection, clarity, and a practical plan that actually fits your life.

I grew up on a farm, where I learned early that hard work and determination lead to better outcomes. That belief has shaped every corner of my career — and how I show up for every person I work with.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Lawrence, KS

Searching for therapists in Lawrence starts with understanding what kind of support fits what you want to address. People look for therapy in Lawrence, KS for many reasons, including anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, and life transitions. As you compare therapists, look for training and listed specialties that match your needs. Some therapists may note approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing therapy, or trauma-informed care in their bios.

Lawrence has a smaller local therapy market than nearby metro areas, so virtual care can expand your options while still connecting you with a Kansas-licensed therapist. You may prefer an in-person office near your home, campus, or workplace, or you may need the flexibility of virtual appointments that fit your schedule. Beyond specialty, consider appointment times, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading therapist profiles can help you compare communication style, session structure, and what to expect before you book.

Therapy in Lawrence can be a significant expense without insurance, and using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you find therapists who take insurance, see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and schedule directly with someone accepting new patients. Headway accepts a wide range of insurance plans nationally, and your exact coverage depends on your plan and location. You can browse therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
