Kevin Stegeman
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Clients can expect a welcoming, structured conversation focused on understanding what brings them to therapy and what they hope to gain from the process. I take time to learn about current challenges, relevant history, and any symptoms or stressors such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, or life transitions. We also begin identifying clear, collaborative goals so therapy has direction and purpose from the start. I typically introduce an initial treatment plan and may begin discussing early coping strategies or skills that can provide immediate support. My goal for the first session is to help clients feel heard, establish a sense of direction, and leave with a clearer understanding of how we will work together moving forward.

Marnie Kahn
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC, HeartMath Certified Practitioner
I love to help people improve the way they feel and their overall life experience by teaching them how to shift their thoughts and their focus onto more positive aspects. When we feel better, our life reflects that. Our thoughts/feelings are creative and what most do not know is that they are creating their life unconsciously with their thoughts, and their attention. Most people are focusing on what makes them unhappy, or on what they do not have, their fears or worries, and are convinced that they are not good enough. I am passionate about teaching people how to use their minds and their hearts to create a better and more enjoyable life. Life is supposed to feel good! I can show you how to live a better and more fulfilling life.

Stephanie Davis
Hypnotherapist, Cht
Your mind and body are deeply connected—and lasting change begins within. Hypnosis helps reprogram the subconscious mind, easing stress, releasing emotional blocks, and strengthening the mind-body connection. Research shows hypnosis can lower cortisol (the stress hormone) and support overall well-being. Every session is more than relaxation—it's an opportunity to heal, grow, and reconnect with your best self.

Online in Kansas City, MO Missouri (Online Only)
Kansas City sits at the Missouri-Kansas border and draws clients from both states, with therapists well-versed in navigating Midwestern values, family expectations, and the tensions between tradition and personal growth. The city has a significant African American population and community-level trauma tied to historical redlining and economic inequality, driving demand for culturally affirming and social-justice-informed practitioners. The University of Kansas Health System and Saint Luke's Health System provide major institutional mental health resources for the region. Kansas City's art and music scene sustains a creative community with its own distinct mental health needs, and therapists familiar with the psychology of creative careers are present.
