Medication Management Therapists in Overland Park, KS

I provide comprehensive psychiatric medication management within a holistic, integrative framework that considers the whole person—not just symptoms. My approach is collaborative and evidence-based, focusing on selecting and optimizing medications while also addressing lifestyle factors such as sleep, stress, nutrition, and overall well-being that impact mental health. When appropriate, I offer pharmacogenetic testing, including GeneSight, to help guide medication selection and improve the likelihood of finding effective, well-tolerated treatment options. I work closely with each client to develop a personalized treatment plan that supports stability, improves functioning, and aligns with their goals and values. When appropriate, I also integrate supportive therapy and practical coping strategies to promote long-term healing, balance, and overall wellness.

We provide psychological care that includes close collaboration with prescribing providers to support effective medication management when medication is part of treatment. Our approach integrates psychotherapy with ongoing monitoring of symptoms, side effects, and overall functioning to ensure coordinated and comprehensive care. We work with clients to understand how medication fits within their broader treatment plan, while also focusing on evidence-based therapeutic strategies to address emotional, cognitive, and behavioral concerns. The goal is to optimize outcomes through a well-coordinated, team-based approach to mental health care.

This component help individuals understand their treatment, enhance adherence, and develop coping strategies to optimize mental health and overall well-being.

Dr. Baumgardner works with a talented and experienced prescriber. Together they can provide seamless care for you if you need medicine as well as therapy.

Overland Park is one of the most affluent suburbs in the Kansas City metro — anchored by a growing healthcare sector and a large concentration of financial services and technology firms — creating consistent demand for therapists working with corporate burnout, perfectionism, and the relationship pressures that come with high-achieving suburban family life. The city's predominantly White, upper-middle-class character coexists with a growing South Asian and East Asian professional population that adds cultural diversity to therapy demand. Johnson County Mental Health Center provides community mental health resources alongside a well-developed private therapy community concentrated in southern Overland Park. The city's suburban character and dispersed layout contribute to social isolation concerns that therapists increasingly encounter in their work.
