Anxiety Therapists in 64101

It is hard to reach out to someone to ask for help especially when you are having to deal with something so personal. Even if that step felt small, I just want to say you're worth it and great job on starting to consider and search for help. If you are dealing with a past trauma, anxiety, depression, sexuality, or spirituality then I would love to be able to help. I love working with individuals to help you overcome the challenges you are having and build a life worth living, whatever that is for you. I pride myself on creating a judgement free space with validation and helping you process and learn what you need to help you grow.

Welcome! I'm so glad that you found your way here. I know first hand how scary and intimidating it can be to reach out for help from a therapist, and I want to congratulate you on your courage, and your willingness to take the first steps toward healing, growth and positive change. My name is Kerry Bursley and I have been a therapist for seven years. Like you, I've been in the client's chair, hoping that a therapist could help me feel better. As a therapist who has also been a therapy client, I know how important it is to feel seen, heard and most of all, safe. I look forward to providing that safe, warm, comfortable space.

Most of the clients I see are young adults with anxiety needing direction; women dealing with trauma, low self-esteem, or eating issues. My approach to therapy is rooted in the belief in impermanence, human suffering, and the power of hope. Everyone needs support and someone to talk to. I am kind, calm, and insightful. I will be interactive in every therapy session. I promise to help bring clarity and understanding to your situation or mental health issues. Progress can be made quickly. Together, we will develop new coping skills and improve your quality of life. Go to my website and click on the link.

Hi! My name is Aimee (she/her/hers) and I am happy you’re here. In the words of Carl Rogers, “The curious paradox is that when I accept myself just as I am, then I can change.” Acceptance is an essential component of change. I will accept you just as you are and help you learn to fully accept yourself. Together, through a mindfulness approach, we will begin to work towards the life you desire. We will explore your thoughts, emotions, and physical sensations to gain self-awareness. I will assist in helping you track and modify behaviors that you have the desire to change.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor licensed in Missouri. I have a varied background including working with those that suffer from substance use disorders, depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, life adjustment issues such as disability and retirement. I've also worked with many clients over the years that have suffered trauma related to abuse.

I am licensed in the states of Missouri, Kansas, and Utah as a LSCSW, LCSW, and LCAC. I am trained in Trauma Informed Care, CBT trained, and thoroughly trained in Motivational Interviewing/Person Centered approaches to ensure that my clients are able to make progress with issues that are important to and for them. I use modern approaches to help individuals achieve goals and make personal improvements in their lives. My passion is to help you through difficult, accomplish your goals, and have the life you want. I ALSO focus on the LGBTQIA+ community.

I have a decade of experience treating adults of various racial backgrounds who are dealing with anxiety, depression, interpersonal conflict, identity development, family conflict, and career concerns. I also focus on BIPOC individuals and their struggles related to race and racial trauma. I approach clients from both a cognitive and emotion-focused perspective but overall, I aim to help individuals feel free.

Have you ever wanted to begin counseling, but didn’t feel like your problems were big enough? Or, have you ever ghosted a therapist because you didn’t feel helped? Me too. So, we go it alone - doing everything to change ourselves and our relationships. We continuously find ourselves stuck between what we want to do and what we “should” do. This dilemma often shows up as anxiety, depression, and relationship problems. That’s why it’s my mission to provide approachable counseling that works.

I know therapy can be intimidating and scary, but together we will help gain back control of your life.

I dedicate my time to finding ways to help individuals, couples, and families grow. Through my non-confrontational, straight-forward approach I seek to help you and your loved ones identify personal strengths, achieve goals, have improved relationships and effective communication patterns. With all clients I strive to help you have "ah-ha" moments of clarity while dealing with current feelings of frustration in life. Within couples and families I aim to help you understand each other's needs; emotionally, physically, and spiritually. It is my goal to work with you and your loved ones to find solutions that fit your needs.

I'm a small town girl who has gone through life with divorce, caring for a child with special needs, loss, and love. I love to connect with REAL people who have REAL problems & are looking for not only help but big changes in their lives. Let's connect with you on what is happening in your life today & how I can help you get past the hurdles that are stopping you from moving on! When I am not working with my clients I am speaking all over the world motivating the masses, listening to way too many podcasts & sneaking M&M's in bed! Let me come with you along this journey we call life. It is my passion helping you find true pure joy!

Now more than ever, our world is incredibly fast-paced and it so often feels like we are just trying to keep our heads above water. And yet, your life is significant and precious. I want to invite you into a space where you have permission to slow down. A space to feel, to think, to breathe, to just be. I hope it will give you space to grow and space to let go. As therapist Lori Gottlieb put it: “part of getting to know yourself is to unknow yourself - to let go of the limiting stories you've told yourself about who you are… so you can live your life and not the story you've been telling yourself about your life.”

We all go through transitions in our lives and seeking help sorting things out can be very challenging and overwhelming. It is my role to listen while providing you a safe place to explore your feelings and why you think the way you do. Together we will develop strategies for making changes or coping with the status quo.

Life gets to us sometimes. Sometimes we need help. I'll be your coach, support, and cheerleader through this tough time in your life, and can provide you with the good constructive feedback that you need. If you're motivated to make positive change in your life, I might be able to help you. I find that seeking to answer the common question of "why am I doing this?" is very helpful and freeing for people, and reminds them that they can in fact make changes to get their lives back on track.
