Melanie Collins
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC, LPC, LCMHC, Coach
Therapy with me is collaborative, practical, and refreshingly human. I bring extensive experience in relationships, sexuality, trauma, and neurodivergence, along with a genuine curiosity about what makes each person tick. You won’t find judgment, canned advice, or a one-size-fits-all approach here. Instead, we’ll make sense of the patterns that keep showing up, explore what’s underneath them, and find strategies that actually fit your life. If you’re looking for a therapist who can handle complicated conversations, appreciate nuance, and help you create meaningful change while still being a real person in the room, we may be a great fit.

Merritt Leonhardt
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LSCSW, CDWF, MCLC
I am drawn to raw unfiltered courage. Going to therapy a brave choice and it takes tenacity and grit to feel differently and make changes in our lives. When we deny our stories, they define us. When we own our stories, we become the author who writes the brave new ending. Together we will examine the thoughts, emotions, and behaviors that are holding you back identify the new choices and practices that will move you toward more authentic and wholehearted living. Rarely is that decision a whim or an impulse, and most likely you've been thinking about this for a while. Now here you are; being curious and maybe nervous and scared at the same time. In my opinion - that is bravery and brave things are rarely comfortable, but always worth trying.
Whether you are looking to make a shift in your relationships, provide help and guidance for your children, or you have reached a point in your own life where you no longer want to "figure it out alone"- you have come to a good place to get moving. It can get better.
We all struggle at times - with anxiety, depression, and stress - along with the circumstances in our lives that contribute to these feelings. The "feelings" themselves are never wrong. Where we get into trouble (and can feel stuck in them) is when we can't make sense of it all and isolation creeps in. You're not in this alone.

Greta Carlson, Psy.D., ABPP
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist
Welcome! I'm a clinical psychologist with nearly a decade of clinical experience working with children, adolescents, and adults of all ages. I see children, adolescents, and young adults aged 5 and up with depression, chronic PTSD and dissociation, anxiety, OCD, and ADHD. My clients present with a range of concerns, including anxiety, ruminative thoughts, shame feelings, and perfectionism. Having had extensive experience in both psychodynamic psychotherapy and Trauma Focused-CBT, I take an integrative approach when working with clients-I collaborate with you and your child to tailor your goals and address needs for treatment.
While we would tailor treatment to further draw out and address your goals, I work to help you get to know yourself-to name and regulate a range of feelings, identify negative beliefs about yourself, others, or the world, and find healthier ways to cope with strong feelings. I also consider how your past history is relevant to your present relationships.
The decision to seek therapy is such a courageous one. I think, oftentimes, we can tell ourselves that we can "think through" or "solve problems" entirely on our own-it's so difficult to reach out for support! I work at a pace that feels manageable for you or your child, focusing on creating a warm and collaborative alliance for therapy and assessment.

Patrick Powers
Marriage and Family Therapist, PhD, LMFT
Hi, I’m Patrick.
I'm originally from Oklahoma but have lived in Utah for over 15 years. I love my two dachshunds, sports, stand-up comedy, concerts, and spending time with my wife and two sons.
I specialize in treating OCD using ERP (Exposure and Response Prevention), but I also draw from CBT, EFT principles, positive psychology, and evolutionary psychology. I blend evidence-based strategies with a deep curiosity about what makes you you. I’m also not afraid to dig into the big existential questions and how they come up in life.
My style is relaxed, collaborative, and straightforward. Clients tell me they feel safe, understood, and surprisingly comfortable being real with me—even when we’re talking about the hard stuff like intrusive thoughts, sexual shame, or life transitions that shake your sense of self. I believe therapy works best when it feels like an honest conversation between equals. I bring clinical expertise, a nonjudgmental attitude, and a solid sense of humor. You bring your experience, goals, and values. Together, we figure things out.
If you’re looking for a therapist who’s both serious about helping and not too serious in general, I’d love to meet you.

Matthew Syzdek
Psychologist, PhD, LP, MBA
If you feel burned out, unfulfilled in relationships, stuck in life, anxious, or down, there is a path forward towards a more fulfilling life. Don't gamble when choosing a therapist. You deserve a psychologist who will adapt the best science to your specific needs and goals. Many therapists themselves are burned out and can't give the best care to their clients. Dr Syzdek built a small boutique practice where he limits the number of clients he treats, so he can give his clients the time, thought, and dedication that they deserve. Dr Syzdek combines compassion with the science of behavior change to help you make the the difficult decisions in life and take action, so you can live a happier life, thrive at work, love your relationships, and have fun again.

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.
