Counselor/Therapist, LCPC, LPC, LMFT, IAT Coach
Do you need support, but can’t make it to an in-person appointment? Are you busy and don’t have the time to drive across town for an appointment? Do you live in a more rural area, or maybe you prefer to do things virtually? If so, we can help you through telehealth. Telehealth allows us to provide counseling through secure live video conferencing. This can be done anywhere you have a computer or smartphone. Virtual appointments can be very beneficial if getting to an in-person appointment is not convenient, or you simply just don’t want to. Telehealth is available for any Kansas or Missouri resident. To learn more and get started with virtual therapy, please contact us today.

Sara Fraser
Psychologist, PhD
Like many of you, the pandemic profoundly impacted the way I live and work. I moved my practice completely online in the face of COVID restrictions and have not returned to in person work. I was impressed with the way that online therapy offered clients many more options for their work with me and I found clients able to keep up with their sessions consistently and reliably with more connection options open to them. Via safe and secure telehealth sessions, I offer parent consultation for kiddos under 10, online therapy with older kids, teens and families and individual therapy for adults, specializing in trauma and trauma focused therapies.

Dr. Leigh Anne Randa
Psychologist, PhD
Online therapy or "telehealth" is becoming more accepted in our busy culture. Undoubtedly there are concerns that must be dealt with upfront, such as the client's responsibility to insure confidentiality; however, the benefits of convenience and reduced time away from family or work often outweigh any drawbacks. Research has shown that the delivery of therapy in an online format is equally effective to more traditional in-person delivery. Dr. Randa provides online counseling for those who need brief interventions and are not at risk for suicidal behaviors.

Merritt Posten Benz
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LSCSW, CDWF, MCLC
At the start of the Pandemic, I was skeptical that online/virtual therapy would be of the same quality and connection as in person/in office counseling. I was pleasantly surprised that the work did translate and now I am grateful that I can offer high quality services to a wider group of couples and individuals. Even though I do see a handful of clients in man office, majority of my clients have preferred to meet virtually and appreciate the connivence and comfort of having sessions from the location of their own choosing. The quality of your life is crafted from your decisions. Whether those decisions are intentional or passive, we create and re-create our lives every day. Struggle can be our greatest call to courage and the clearest path to your best life. Your breakthrough is waiting.

Kirk Shelton
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Feeling stuck often means familiar strategies are no longer doing their job. I work with clients to examine those patterns directly, address unresolved trauma when it’s relevant, and develop changes that translate into day-to-day functioning. My work is grounded in person-centered therapy and EMDR, with an emphasis on practical, observable change rather than insight alone.

Susan Spicer
Psychologist, PhD
In my online therapy practice, I specialize in EMDR therapy as a transformative approach to assist individuals in their journey towards healing from trauma and narcissistic abuse, ultimately guiding them back to a place of self-love and emotional equilibrium. The lingering effects of childhood physical, emotional, or sexual abuse, along with the enduring impact of narcissistic abuse, can become deeply entrenched within the body, leading to symptoms of depression, anxiety, hypervigilance, and challenges in navigating relationships and daily life.
I employ a video platform known as remotEMDR, which is specifically designed to facilitate EMDR therapy. This innovative approach aims to reshape the way these distressing memories are stored in the brain, fostering resolution and inner peace. To complement this therapy, I incorporate mind-body practices such as mindfulness, meditation, and breathwork, all of which serve to amplify the healing process.
Drawing on my background as a neuropsychologist, I possess the expertise to help individuals identify their blind spots, condition their thoughts, and ultimately rewire their brains for enduring happiness and success. My mission is to provide a comprehensive and holistic approach to healing that empowers individuals on their path to transformation and well-being.

Tara Murphy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Starting therapy can feel like a big step, especially if you’ve already done work and want to go deeper. I offer a supportive, down-to-earth space to sort through what feels stuck, overwhelming, or hard to name. My approach is rooted in Internal Family Systems (IFS) and trauma-informed care, but always tailored to what you need most.
I work with adults carrying the weight of childhood neglect or trauma, as well as those navigating stress in parenting, relationships, or work. Along the way, we focus on building clarity, connection, and trust so change feels possible—and lasting.
I also provide consultation and supervision for licensed therapists and offer parenting consultations. My practice is 100% telehealth, making therapy more flexible and accessible across Washington State and Psychpact states throughout the United States.
