Gregor Nathanael Schwarz
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I provide specialized, compassionate support for individuals struggling with suicidal ideation, self-harm, and intense emotional crisis. My approach is rooted in safety-first, evidence-based frameworks, utilizing Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)—in which I have extensive specialized training—and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help you navigate periods of profound hopelessness. Drawing upon my comprehensive clinical background—including specialized outpatient DBT and post-doctoral training in externalizing problems—I bring a depth of experience in managing high-risk behaviors and complex emotional dysregulation. I work collaboratively with you to develop personalized safety plans, identify warning signs, and build the distress tolerance skills needed to manage overwhelming emotions. If you are struggling, please know you do not have to carry this burden alone; my goal is to provide a non-judgmental, stable environment where we can prioritize your immediate safety while working toward long-term stabilization, emotional healing, and a renewed sense of purpose.

Bold Expressions Therapy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I believe that many people have had, at some point, suicidal thoughts due to societal pressures. Each person is different in their thoughts, beliefs, and desires. I do not believe in the desire to keep someone alive for the sake of life alone, but rather that it is my job to help someone cultivate a live a life worth living without judgement.

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.
