Alexandra Vartosu
Hypnotherapist, Holistic Psychotherapist & Master Life Coach, MC. (Psy.), IAPMC
Are you struggling with feelings of hopelessness, fatigue, and a lack of motivation? Depression is both common and debilitating, often making it hard to see a way out. You may find it difficult to engage in activities that once brought you joy, or feel like you’re just going through the motions of life without any real purpose.
I understand how overwhelming and isolating depression can be. My approach to treating depression is compassionate and integrative, focusing on the mind, body, and soul. Together, we will explore the root causes of your depression and work on healing from within. Using a blend of holistic and synergistic techniques, we will create a personalized plan to help you regain your energy and rediscover your sense of hope.
In our sessions, you’ll find a safe and nurturing environment where you can openly express your feelings without fear of judgment. We will uncover your inner strengths, build emotional resilience, and develop practical strategies to manage and alleviate depressive symptoms. My goal is to support you in finding relief and helping you move towards a more balanced, fulfilling, and joyful life.

Licensed Professional Counselor, Ed.D., LPC
Depression may feel as though it will last forever or that it will come back before you've had time to catch your breath when it does ebb. However, I am skilled at working on identifying self-care routines that are unique to your individual needs, assisting you in identifying the temporary nature of an experience in a positive manner, and providing a space to both address the unpleasant emotions and identify what pleasures or joy may be present in your life.

We'll identify and challenge negative thought patterns together through CBT, while also encouraging you to accept difficult emotions with ACT. Together, we’ll create personalized coping strategies and set achievable goals to promote resilience and improve your mood. We may also explore what patterns or external factors may be contributing to depressive episodes.

Dr. Jason Wang, Inflection Points Therapy
Psychologist, PhD
Depression can feel disconnecting – to our sense of self (our emotions, our sense of purpose/meaning), and to others in our life. I work with clients to explore and gain insight into what might be causing and/or sustaining their depression, and work towards connecting again with the parts of themselves that don't feel accessible, as well as connecting again with those who care about them.

Sara Fraser
Psychologist, PhD
I work with mood disorders of all types to help folks tease out what is symptom, what is sign of overwhelm and what is external to them. Interventions might include working on activation, healthy and adaptive self-care, relational issues such as limit setting and boundaries and work-life balance as well as parts that might be informed by past trauma. Liaising and coordinating with medical and other professionals that are involved in treatment is considered important here as well.

Topeka is Kansas's state capital and a city with an unusually significant mental health history—the Menninger Clinic, for decades one of the world's leading psychiatric institutions, was founded and based in Topeka before relocating to Houston in 2003, leaving a legacy of mental health awareness and professional expertise that still influences the community. The city is also historically significant as the location of the plaintiffs in Brown v. Board of Education, the landmark Supreme Court desegregation case, and the ongoing work of racial equity remains an important dimension of community life and mental health context. Stormont Vail Health provides behavioral health services, and a private therapy sector serves Topeka's mix of government, legal, and healthcare workers alongside the broader population. Common therapy concerns include depression, anxiety, racial justice and identity, economic stress in a mid-size state capital, and the particular challenges of a community working to reimagine its future.
