Therapists in Hutchinson, KS

As a therapist, I strive to provide a safe space for my clients. My idea of therapy is to join my clients where they are and walk along with them and help find the path they are searching for. Change in our lives is a process but growth and healing can occur, although it's not always easy.

My therapeutic style involves a warm, collaborative relationship by which we can achieve your mental health, wellness, education, or career goals. I use a variety of techniques that assist in thinking more efficiently about your place in this world. My goal is to help you be at peace with what is difficult, be it depression, anxiety, relationship issues, or just your personal wellness. Whatever the problem, we can work on it together to reach your maximum potential, stability, and harmony.

Trusting your therapist is key to healing therapy. Building a strong, trusting, and supportive relationship with clients, creates the foundation for a successful intervention. I have experience with various presenting issues such as: infertility, sexual dysfunction, anxiety, depression, and adolescent issues. I work with couples through Prepare Enrich and Couples Communication. I am also EMDR certified, which helps to provide a trauma based therapy. I am passionate about learning of a client's story and providing the necessary tools, skills, and education to help the client overcome their struggles. I seek to help clients improve their quality of life.

I strongly believe that therapy helps give every individual the power to own who they are, and who they want to be. No matter where you are in your walk of life I would love to be able to join you on your journey to healing. Life can bring a variety of situations that can often feel extremely overwhelming and defeating. Working towards healing from pain in the past, and finding one’s true authentic self is something that I strive to bring to all of my clients through my therapeutic process.

I believe that therapy can be fun, focused, serious, or emotional, depending on your needs and emotional state in the moment. I am a friendly therapist with a knack for making people feel comfortable and supported, balancing sincerity with humor. I founded Level: Wellness • Mind therapy practice, 2023 Best of Wichita Gold winner for Mental Health Services, to reflect my approach to help people, and for all the therapists at Level: Wellness • Mind to conduct the best “strengths-based therapy for a level life.” We now have 2 locations in Wichita and Topeka.

After 20 plus years working in the mental health and substance use treatment fields I still enjoy watching patients grow and change in beautiful and interesting ways as we collaboratively work to develop copings skills and strategies to free them from the shackles that once bound them.

Do the pressures of life sometimes outweigh your strength? Being strong All. The. Damn. Time. Is exhausting. Do you have BIG feelings and feel them only when you are alone? Hiding them so the world can’t see and call you weak? Slowing down is not an option; because you fear what might happen if you do. Haven’t taken a REAL vacation in who knows how long for whatever reason you come up with. Do you have a little voice in your head that is mean and doesn’t shut up? Not sure if it is even possible to truly accept yourself? Can you answer the question “Who am I?”

When I decided to get into counseling, I realized that we all have a multitude of DYNAMICS which can benefit or create challenges in our lives. Counseling has its own set of DYNAMICS and I plan to help you be aware of the positive benefits counseling can have in your everyday life. I enjoy the journey in promoting a quality of life for everyone that has meaning and purpose. Being DYNAMIC is simply being in constant change, activity or progress. We are DYNAMIC, and I look forward to meeting with you.
