Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT) Therapists in Topeka, KS

With over two decades of experience working in diverse therapeutic environments—ranging from outpatient clinics to psychiatric hospitals, adventure programs, residential treatment facilities, schools, juvenile corrections, and a military hospital—I bring a wide-ranging perspective to problem-solving and overcoming life's obstacles. As the Founder & President of two award-winning mental health centers with a staff 150, I've gained a holistic and interdisciplinary approach to care.

Everyone at times needs some support or coaching on their life journey. I'd be happy to sit down with you or talk on the phone and compassionately listen to your story and lend some hope and encouragement. I view "problems" as opportunities to work on and overcome the 'threats' within and around us and to open up our lives to new levels of growth.

A human being, by nature, is full of contradictions. I believe a strong therapeutic alliance is essential to the therapy process. The experience of "feeling" seen, or felt, or heard, is the beginning of healing. Knowing that while you are unique, you are not alone. My belief is that strong therapy starts with the therapeutic relationship.

I'm the owner of PSYCHē, PLLC, a behavioral health consulting firm dedicated to providing our clients with the most effective, personable, and solid network of therapists in the country. We are a private network of expert therapists specializing in hand-selecting top psychologists and counselors across multiple states. Our goal is to match clients with their perfect therapist. As a seasoned Cognitive Behavioral Therapy therapist (CBT) and Linehan Board Certified Dialectical Behavior Therapist (DBT-LBC™), I believe it is my job to not only provide great care to MY clients, but also to rigorously vet therapists who see the clients I can't.

Navigating life’s challenges can feel overwhelming, and seeking therapy is a meaningful and courageous step. In our confidential work together, we’ll create a supportive space to explore your experiences with openness and curiosity—free from judgment. My approach is collaborative and integrative, drawing from humanistic and interpersonal frameworks while incorporating evidence-based interventions such as mindfulness, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and clinical hypnosis. I specialize in the treatment of anxiety disorders and offer Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I), with the goal of helping you build resilience, develop effective coping strategies, and move toward greater well-being.

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.
