Divorce
Tara Murphy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Divorce brings grief, shame, and uncertainty about the future. IFS, attachment, and family systems work provide a framework for healing identity, navigating co-parenting, and building resilience. Sensory diet approaches, relaxation, boundary setting and mindfulness strategies help manage stress and emotional overwhelm. I have additional experience in working with navigating collaborative divorce and blended families.

Divorce
Dr. Shelley Sommerfeldt
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Divorce can be one of life’s most emotionally challenging transitions, filled with grief, confusion, and uncertainty about the future. As a couples therapist, I support partners in strengthening their connection—but when divorce becomes the healthiest path, I also help couples navigate the process with clarity, compassion, and respect. I provide a supportive space to process the emotional impact, navigate the practical challenges, and rebuild a sense of identity and stability. Whether you’re in the midst of a separation or healing from its aftermath, I’ll help you move forward with clarity, confidence, and emotional resilience.

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.
