Would you like to learn how to surf through life's challenges rather than get pummeled by them? I can teach you as a Positive Intelligence coach, and Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). For over 30 years, in Missouri and Illinois I've helped people of all ages struggling with emotional regulation, the management of symptoms of depression or anxiety, stress, life transitions, anger management, parenting, and burnout to become the best versions of themselves. Together, we would focus on what is helpful and let go of judging what is right or wrong.

Hello, and welcome! I'm Amy Haas, a Licensed Professional Counselor with more than 20 years of experience helping children, adolescents, adults, families, and veterans navigate anxiety, ADHD, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, life transitions, and behavioral concerns.
Throughout my career, I've worked with people from many different walks of life, from youth involved in the juvenile justice system to formally incarcerated adults rebuilding their lives, as well as children and families in schools, intensive in-home programs, and community mental health. Those experiences reinforced something I believe deeply: people are far more than the hardest thing they've been through or the labels they've been given.
I believe meaningful therapy starts with authenticity, trust, and genuine connection. My goal as a therapist is to help you feel understood, build on your strengths, and create lasting positive change.
Hello, I’m Abby Pease, LCSW, QS! As a therapist, I strive to create a safe and welcoming space where clients feel truly seen and supported. I bring warmth, energy, and a touch of humor into my work, helping clients navigate challenges while also reminding them that healing doesn’t always have to be heavy. My goal is to walk alongside you with compassion and clarity as you move toward growth and resilience.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Kansas City
Finding the right ADHD therapist or psychiatrist in Kansas City starts with understanding the type of care you need. Therapists who specialize in ADHD often use approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) or behavioral therapy to help with focus, time management, and emotional regulation. If you're looking for medication management, a psychiatrist or psychiatric nurse practitioner can evaluate your symptoms and prescribe medication. Many people benefit from working with both a therapist and a prescriber.
The Kansas City metro area spans both Missouri and Kansas, which means provider availability and insurance networks can vary depending on which side of the state line you're on. When searching for a provider, consider what matters most to you — whether that's someone who works with adults, specializes in a specific therapy approach, or offers virtual appointments. Reading a provider's bio can help you understand their style and experience before you reach out.
ADHD care in Kansas City can be costly without insurance, but using your in-network benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce what you pay per session. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated costs upfront, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a provider who specializes in ADHD and is covered by your plan.
