Does your child's anxiety, ADHD or other issue lead to big feelings and reactions? Big feelings can be overwhelming to children, causing even bigger reactions. These feelings can impact your child, and your whole family, daily, even doing things they enjoy. It can impact them at home, in school and with friendships. Using strategies such as play therapy or art, we can teach your child new ways to understand and manage these big feelings, bringing more calm and peace to your child and family.

Amanda Altenhofen

Everyone deserves compassionate treatment in an environment where they feel safe. While therapy can be hard work, empathy and connection can be balanced with playfulness. I believe that everyone should be accepted for who they are and I am LGBTQ+ allied. I believe change happens when families and individuals feel safe, seen, and heard. Every individual and family is unique with different needs. I work with families to build connection with one another.

Melanie Arroyo Pérez

No matter what others tell you, you are enough. Maybe you don't believe this yet, but by the time you walk out of your last therapy session with me, you will not question your worth ever again. This is because you will be in a space free of judgments and blame, where you can safely process your past, your thoughts and insecurities at YOUR own pace. I welcome clients in my therapy space who come from marginalized and oppressed backgrounds in Kansas City.

Is your child struggling with life transitions? Or maybe you are struggling to co-parent with your ex spouse. Sometimes teenagers are really struggling and need someone to talk to and navigate the challenges of growing up. Often times parents need advice in how to come with the developmental changes in their children.
