Therapy Resources in Kansas City

Mental Health Resources in Kansas City

At Owings Counseling, I know that therapy doesn’t always meet every need on its own. While I provide counseling services in Kansas City for children, teens, and adults, many clients and families also benefit from additional tools and community support.

That’s why I’ve created this list of trusted mental health resources in Kansas City. Whether you’re looking for parenting support, trauma recovery tools, or referrals beyond what I offer, these resources can help. Please reach out if you have questions or need something specific—I’m happy to point you in the right direction.
