Anxiety and Depression Therapy in Kansas City
Compassionate Support for When Life Feels Heavy
Anxiety and depression are among the most common reasons people seek therapy, and yet they can often feel the hardest to talk about. Whether you’re constantly overwhelmed or feeling stuck in a fog you can’t shake, you’re not alone.
At Owings Counseling, I provide counseling for anxiety and depression in Kansas City for children, teens, and adults. My goal is to help you understand what’s happening beneath the surface, find relief, and begin feeling like yourself again.
Understanding Anxiety and Depression
Both anxiety and depression can look different from person to person. You might notice some of the following signs:
Constant worry or racing thoughts
Difficulty sleeping or relaxing
Panic attacks or physical tension
Fatigue, low energy, or feeling emotionally flat
Negative self-talk or low self-worth
Withdrawing from people or activities you used to enjoy
Trouble concentrating, staying motivated, or making decisions
Whether you're struggling with one or both, therapy can help you make sense of what you're feeling and learn new ways to cope.
