Narrative
Dr. JD Wright
Psychologist, PhD, Licensed Psychologist
My approach is grounded in an understanding of the impact of trauma, recognizing that our struggles always exist in the context of our environments and histories. I weave mindfulness and positive psychology into our sessions, aiming not just for 'okay,' but for a life that feels truly meaningful and fulfilling. Trained in clinical hypnosis, EMDR, ACT, and CBT, I bring a diverse toolkit to tailor our sessions to your unique needs.
I see our time together as a collaborative space, where your feedback and active participation shape the path to your well-being. There's no one-size-fits-all in therapy—I believe in finding the approach that resonates best with you and addresses your specific concerns. Let's embark on this journey towards positive change together.

Merritt Leonhardt
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LSCSW, CDWF, MCLC
I am drawn to raw unfiltered courage. Going to therapy a brave choice and it takes tenacity and grit to feel differently and make changes in our lives. When we deny our stories, they define us. When we own our stories, we become the author who writes the brave new ending. Together we will examine the thoughts, emotions, and behaviors that are holding you back identify the new choices and practices that will move you toward more authentic and wholehearted living. Rarely is that decision a whim or an impulse, and most likely you've been thinking about this for a while. Now here you are; being curious and maybe nervous and scared at the same time. In my opinion - that is bravery and brave things are rarely comfortable, but always worth trying.
Whether you are looking to make a shift in your relationships, provide help and guidance for your children, or you have reached a point in your own life where you no longer want to "figure it out alone"- you have come to a good place to get moving. It can get better.
We all struggle at times - with anxiety, depression, and stress - along with the circumstances in our lives that contribute to these feelings. The "feelings" themselves are never wrong. Where we get into trouble (and can feel stuck in them) is when we can't make sense of it all and isolation creeps in. You're not in this alone.

Individual and Couples Therapy
Psychologist, PhD
As a therapist who has been practicing for over 20 years, I have developed a well-honed approach, style, skillset, and flow, which helps to make your experience personalized, efficient, responsive, and often highly effective. I possess the intellect and experience to meet you where you are. I intentionally keep my practice small so that I can respond quickly to your needs. Most people do not reach out to therapists because they want to start therapy in 3 months; they probably needed to start yesterday! I can usually get you started within the week and offer flexible scheduling and evening appointments if necessary.

Kieri Olmstead
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
If you're looking for someone to validate everything you're already thinking, I'm probably not your therapist. But if you're ready to actually look at what's keeping you stuck — in your relationships, your patterns, your story — then we might be a really good fit. I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with five consecutive years recognized as Kansas City's top couples therapist, pre-marital counselor and marriage and family therapist by KC Magazine, The Pitch KC and the Kansas City Star. I work with individuals, couples and families who are done just surviving and ready to understand themselves at a deeper level. Therapy here is warm, direct and honest — sometimes uncomfortably so. That's the point.
