Women's Issues
Kieri Olmstead
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Women are socialized to shrink, accommodate and perform wellness while quietly falling apart. At Simple Empathy I work with women who are done with that. Whether you're navigating identity, relationships, career, motherhood, body image, trauma or the particular exhaustion of always being the one who holds everything together — this is a space where you don't have to manage how you're received. Direct, depth-oriented therapy that takes women's inner lives as seriously as they deserve. You are allowed to take up space here.

Katie at Jade Therapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
How many hats are you currently wearing? Which aren't fitting quite right? It is an overwhelming thing to be a woman in todays world, and finding time and space to just allow yourself to be present and feel is a challenge. I do believe, though, that it's a challenge worth taking! You are valuable and you don't have to feel stuck or angry or sad alone.

Kate E. Stephenson
Life Coach, ICF Professional Certified Coach (PCC), Holistic Life, Career & Executive
Let's talk truth. As a function of the culture in which we find ourselves today, it is an undeniable fact that in general men and women are not treated the same. We do not have the same struggles. We are not trained or educated in the same ways. We have been conditioned to perceive things differently. That is not to negate individual perspectives, talents, abilities, situations or experiences. We're all different, and yet we live in this culture which has an effect on us and we an effect on it. I've coached hundreds of women using tools designed specifically for women to help you answer your callings and claim your power to play as big as you want. I am NOT offering therapy—I leave the work of diagnosis and treatment of medical issues to medical professionals. However, coaching can absolutely complement and supplement the therapy work you are doing; our work together will be therapeutic without being therapy. When I was introduced to these tools, I saw my life in a new way. I came to understand my own behavior and the behaviors of many of the women around me in a way that made so much more sense. I am so proud to introduce this work and its tools to other women who want to play bigger in their own lives. Introductory chats are free of charge, so what's stopping you from scheduling one right now?

Independence is a Kansas City suburb with a distinctive character rooted in its historical significance as the starting point of the Oregon and Santa Fe Trails and as the world headquarters of the Community of Christ—a significant Latter Day Saint denomination—as well as being the hometown of President Harry S. Truman, a combination that gives the city a particular civic identity unusual for a suburb of its size. The religious community anchored by the Community of Christ Temple creates both a strong support network and specific mental health considerations around faith, doubt, and community belonging for those navigating their relationship with the church. Centerpoint Medical Center and the broader Kansas City health system provide behavioral health resources to Independence and surrounding communities. Common therapy concerns include faith and spiritual identity, commuter stress from the Kansas City metro, economic anxiety, family and relationship issues, and the particular dynamics of a community where civic pride and religious heritage are deeply intertwined.
