I am a somatic and relationship therapist, and provide both individual and couples therapy. For adults and adolescents dealing with various types of trauma from developmental to acute, I use Somatic Experiencing as well as IFS (internal family systems) to help you heal the intensity of your experience of past events that may be keeping you feeling overwhelmed and settle your nervous system in the here and now. For couples I use Gottman Couples Therapy to help you improve communication, and work through things from infidelity to parenting to navigating relationship changes. I also provide sex therapy to individuals and couples.

I specialize in attachment dynamics, relationships, trauma, stress, burnout, depression and anxiety, and for over 25 years have worked with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families.

Spring time is here a time for clearing and shedding away the old narratives that keep us stuck in the past. Are you ready to release and let go of the trauma, anxiety, unworthiness, depression, loneliness? Trauma lives in the body you are worthy of healing, renewal and restoration in the mind, body and spirit. I will inspire you to feel it and heal it and carry the shift toward becoming fully present and alive in self-love. You will learn the ancient transformative power of emboded presence, peace and practice. I will teach you the powerful science-based practices for increasing the neural pathways of happiness. Spring forward.

Making the decision to seek help is the the first step towards living a healthier, happier life. The second step is finding the right therapist. I believe that success in therapy is dependent on the strength of the relationship between the counselor and client. I view myself as an advocate, a catalyst for change, and an objective sounding board, rather than an expert who can listen to your problems for an hour and then magically know how to run your life better than you do. You are the expert on you! My job is to help you learn how to help yourself.

As a client-focused therapist, my goal is to help you uncover your true potential and lead a life that is worth celebrating. Whether you are struggling with depression, anxiety, or relationship problems, today you are one step closer to a new you where you feel empowered to maximize your utmost potential. Therapy is for someone who is motivated to grow, learn about themselves, and make positive changes in their life and relationships. If you're looking for extra support and guidance through a challenging situation or you're just ready to move in a new direction in your life, I look forward to working with you to achieve your goals.

Do you struggle to see yourself as a person with inherent value or struggle with feeling safe due to experiencing sexual trauma and interpersonal harm? Do you have overwhelming anxiety, hopelessness, or loneliness? Do you feel disconnected from your body and feel sexual shame due to growing up in religions that elevated purity culture? Are you looking to heal your relationship to food and body through embodiment? It would be an honor to join you on your journey to connect to your body and increase a compassionate relationship with yourself.

Families face a multitude of stressors today which can pull relationships apart. Helping families, couples, and teenagers/adolescents identify and cope with these stressors is my passion. If you are facing issues as a family or couple, or have concerns with your teenager/adolescent, my approach to therapy may be what you are looking for. I use a strength based approach to therapy, focusing on solutions to improve communication and reduce conflict and stress in your relationships. Having a safe, relaxed place for clients to work on issues is important to me.

Hello! I am Carla W. Voss and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Kansas City, MO. I use an eclectic approach when counseling the adolescents and adults, in addition to Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR). In addition, I offer parents parental interventions to assist in their parenting their adolescents.

I offer guidance and support through Trauma-informed Counseling and Coaching in the areas of emotional/behavioral, relational, and spiritual. I specialize in Holistic therapeutic interventions and utilize a very unique and individualized approach to empower people toward change. In either individual or group settings I work with individuals to identify areas of their lives that have become problematic. We then work together to design a "package" unique to the person or group that encompasses both internal and external resources to equip them to become positive change agents within their homes, families, and communities.

Is your marriage or life everything you dreamed it would be? Even more frustrating, do you feel you are stuck together, in some sort of marital gridlock. Your relationship normal, is just one normal, maybe it's time to create a new normal. My passion is to offer options to create that new normal. I specialize in relationship issues, conflict resolution, and growing your capacity to handle the difficult circumstances of life in a way you grow closer as you learn how to do it on you own. I promise will treat your relationships as sacred. My phone consultation is free and my goal is to work myself out of a job ASAP.

I believe that most people at some time can benefit from talking with a professional about emotional problems that they are encountering, although many persons I see worry that there is something "wrong" with them and feel they should be able to improve their situations thembselves. Difficulties in relationships, problems concerning work or recovering from bad experiences can be painful parts of life and talking about them can hasten change and improvement. As we develop a relationship with one another and reflect about the problems together, over time, I have found that people discover new ways of meeting the challenges that brought them to me.

Finding the right counselor may be one of the most important decisions you can make in seeking a better life. As my client, you will be provided a therapeutic relationship that is non-threatening, challenging, empowering, and ultimately life changing. You will find that your pain, which is actually healing trying to happen, will be lessened and most likely alleviated, your feelings and experiences are valid, and that you can make positive changes to improve your life and relationships. I'm a Certified Imago Relationship Therapist and specialize in relationships - between couples, parents and children, friends - any human relationship

I am a CERTIFIED IMAGO RELATIONSHIP THERAPIST. I specialize in relationship work, and my style is collaborative. I believe that my clients are looking for three things when they come into my office: 1-Encouragement that their pain or negative situation will lessen or end, 2-An opportunity to be heard and validated for their feelings and experiences, 3-A plan of action to improve their lives. My clients often report that they feel empowered after working with me. I offer more than one solution to a problem so that my clients may choose the one that best suits them.

It's easy to go through life feeling lost, alone, unseen, as if fallen through the cracks in a society that will erase, exclude, invalidate your experience and identity. And it's difficult to hold hope for the type of healing that would empower you to navigate life in the same broken system with a sense of peace with yourself and comfort in your body. Can you even imagine what that life could look like? We're often so entrenched in trauma and oppression from our experience, relationships, and systems that holding space for hope and change is inaccessible.

If you're reading this, I want you to know how courageous it is that you've already taken the first step: asking for help. It's something no one wants to do, but I've been there, and it can be the change you need to live the life you were meant to. Being vulnerable and brave enough to tell your story is tough. But getting you to the place where you can actually own your story, and maybe even write a new ending, is totally worth it.

Welcome, I'm so glad you're here! I commonly work with folks from all backgrounds who experience anxiety, depression, trauma (including religious and racial trauma), parenting conflicts, life transitions, and body image/weight concerns. I am passionate about destigmatizing mental health by highlighting clients’ strengths and resources!

I have been in private practice for over twenty years. During those years I have counseled both individual clients and couples with a variety of issues. These issues include relationship issues, life transitions, abuse, depression, eating disorders, grief, stress, anxiety, sexual identity, and parenting issues. I believe we all go through difficult periods in our lives where we need someone to talk to who can give understanding, support, guidance, tools, and suggestions. I believe that counseling can often help our lives become less painful but instead become more hopeful and fulfilling.

We are all just walking each other home. While I bring a deep love for/nerdiness about how we become us, you know you best. You've got the map and say where to go — I empower you to navigate, process, unpack and heal. We will work to make connections, identify patterns/themes and reframe old stories that no longer serve you. I am also trained in EMDR & approach therapy through a trauma-informed, systemic, anti-oppression lens, practicing cultural humility. I am a visionary curator of transformative experiences. If you have tried therapy before and are still struggling and/or are ready to change your trajectory, call me.
