Dr. Nichole Vincent
Psychologist, PsyD
You’ve been pushing, pulling, and trying your damnedest to hold it all together. But let’s be real – deep down, you know something’s gotta give. Life wasn’t meant to feel this hard, this stuck, this… much.
And if you’re being honest? You’re SO over it.
Here’s the truth: you’re not broken. You’re navigating a world that doesn’t always make it easy to thrive. But that doesn’t mean you can’t reclaim your power, find your flow, and create a life that feels exactly right for YOU.
Let me guess…
• You’re caught in relationships that leave you feeling unseen, unheard, and unfulfilled.
• Your brain races at night like it’s training for a marathon – replaying every conversation, obsessing over
what you “should’ve” done, or worrying about what’s next.
• Your to-do list owns you. You make them, you lose them, and even when you cross things off, you still feel
like you’re falling short.
• Every day feels like you’re stuck on autopilot, and you can’t help but wonder: Is this it?
• You’re holding your sh*t together on the outside but are so effing drained on the inside.
• You thought you’d buried it, but those old painful memories still find ways to show up and shake your
foundation.
• You don’t let anyone in because you don’t want to “burden” them with your struggles.
What if it doesn’t have to be this way?
Therapy With Me Is More Than Just Talking – It’s About Transforming
I’m here to shake things up. To get to the root of what’s really holding you back – the stories, patterns and cycles that keep you stuck – and disrupt the sh*t out of them. To help you stop spinning your wheels and start moving toward a life that feels good.
You deserve a life that feels aligned with who you are – not just who you’re “supposed” to be. I’m here to help you:
• Finally figure out why you keep saying yes to less and start asking for (and getting) what you deserve.
• Turn off the mental replay and get the deep, restorative rest you’ve been craving.
• Stop letting your to-do list define your worth – and start finding joy in your days again.
• We’ll figure out what you really want and how to get it. Yes, even the big, scary, “am I allowed to want this?”
stuff.
• Heal the sh*t from your past so it doesn’t keep showing up in your present.
• You’ll feel free to show up fully as yourself. No more shrinking, silencing, or second-guessing.
You’re worthy of a life that feels spacious, joyful, and ease-filled – and I’m here to help you create it.
It’s Time to Step Into Your Mentally “Well-thy” Life
You’re not here to settle. You’re here to thrive. To rise. To reclaim what’s been waiting for you all along. And while this journey might feel scary, overwhelming, or even impossible right now, I promise you this: I’ll meet you where you are, but I won’t leave you there.
I see you. I’ve got you. Let’s do this.

Jenna Poppe
Pre-Licensed Professional, MA, NNC, PLPC | ADHD + Relationship Therapist
For many of my clients (especially those with ADHD!) online therapy removes the barriers that make showing up hard. Virtual sessions fit into real life, which means you don't have to leave early for the drive to the office. It also means fewer cancellations, more consistency, and better results. I offer secure, confidential teletherapy that is warm, engaged, and genuinely effective from wherever you are most comfortable!

Dr. Jenny Shields
Psychologist
Online therapy doesn’t have to feel distant or impersonal. In fact, my clients often tell me our virtual sessions feel just as warm, authentic, and deeply connected as if we were sitting in the same room. I specialize in helping healthcare providers, executives, and high-achieving professionals who feel burned out, stuck, or quietly overwhelmed—especially folks who’ve been so busy taking care of everyone else they’ve lost touch with themselves. My approach combines evidence-based behavioral science, genuine empathy, and practical strategies designed specifically for your unique challenges and goals. Whether you’re at home, in your office, or somewhere in between, our work together will help you step out of survival mode, reconnect with your values, and create meaningful, lasting change.

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.

Pathways Counseling KC
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.

Dr. Amanda Malak
Psychologist, Clinical Psychologist
Adolescents and adults navigating their faith and sexuality (LGBTQ+ affirming), anxiety, depression, interpersonal challenges, grief, trauma, pregnancy/postpartum, family of origin concerns, identity development, and general life stressors and transitions would particular enjoy working with me. Multicultural couples and families navigating culture clashes, estrangement, faith transitions, and sexual and intergenerational trauma, especially for BIPOC populations, are treatment specialties. Psychedelic psychotherapy preparation and integration are also available with referrals to clinics and others who can provide medication administration. Psychological assessment to clarify diagnoses such as autism, bipolar disorder, ADHD, etc., Independent Medical Evaluations (IME), worker’s compensation, preemployment for first responders, and fitness-for-duty-evaluations are also offered. Approaching patients with cultural humility is a core value at Malak Psychology honoring who you are, your ancestors, and the indigenous land we occupy.
Grounded in decolonizing mental health, liberation, and feminist psychologies, my practice employs multimodal approaches, including dialectical behavior therapy, cognitive behavior therapy, cognitive processing therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, somatic experiencing, emotionally focused couples therapy, Gottman, family systems, psychoanalysis, and more.
Empowering you to forge your unique path, I serve as a guide with an emphasis on agency and self-determination. Collaborative wellness plans allow participants to decide the depth of exploration into subjects. I ensure evidence-based, collaborative, and individualized care by incorporating peer-reviewed research and indigenous knowledge systems.

Owelleth Mental Health
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, MedFT
I have been doing Telehealth since 2020. I love being able to see clients where they feel most comfortable and to increase access to these services. I am able to provide therapy, diagnosis, assessment, and treatment via an online platform. This traditionally utilizes video and audio components, though some clients prefer to not utilize the video portion. The platform is HIPAA compliant. I have done both in-person and online therapy, not modalities have been shown to be equally effective. I will do anything possible to make the experience as comfortable and smooth as possible.
