My office address is 1023 Kentucky Street, Lawrence, KS 66044. It has on-site parking (in the alley between Kentucky and Tennessee) and is fully accessible. I am a participating provider for Blue Cross Blue Shield. For other insurance plans, I can usually bill fees, with the client being responsible for the difference between the insurance payment and my full fee.

However, there are a few insurance companies will not pay me directly. If you have one of those, you will need to pay the full fee up front and turn in claims I provide you for reimbursement to you. Ask me if you don't have BCBS. I have recently added a new telehealth option (video sessions) for those who can't make it to the office due to health, distance or other reasons.

Talk to me about it first and check with your insurance to be sure this is covered though. I would like to welcome you to my web site by telling you a little about my history as a licensed psychologist and my specialty areas. I saw my very first psychotherapy client over 30 years ago and knew early on that I had chosen a wonderful career.
Services
The office is located in downtown Lawrence.
Parking is usually available in the alley between Kentucky and Tennessee, right behind the 1023 building.
If that small lot is full, there is always parking on the street.
The building entrances at the alley and from Kentucky are open when I am on site.
If you come in from the alley entrance, the waiting room is right there as you enter.
If you come in the Kentucky street entrance, go straight to the door at the end of the short hall, which is the waiting room.
In some of my posts I provide clinical examples to illustrate a point.
It is important that readers understand that I have made examples that draw on a number of people's details.
So nothing you read is actually about a specific person.
Any identifiable details have been changed.
Thus, even if you think you recognize a specific example--you don't!
I see patterning suggesting at least four types of depression, each with significantly different implications for treatment.
The first three will likely sound at least somewhat familiar to most psychotherapists, while the fourth likely will be an unfamiliar conceptualization to many.
For those living in Lawrence Kansas, if your life is in danger, please immediately call 911 or go to the Lawrence Memorial emergency room.
The hospital is located at 325 Maine Street.
If you are already my client, please try to reach me at 785-760-3952.
However, I often cannot answer the phone immediately and sometimes do not hear my messages for a few hours if I am busy with other clients or at night when I am asleep.
In that case, you should contact psychological crisis services, which I describe next.
The Importance of Self-Care in Managing Psychological Symptoms of Depression, Anxiety and Stress.
We have long understood that the health of the body and mind are interconnected.
If we are not taking good care of ourselves physically, we are more prone to symptoms of depression, anxiety and stress.
If we are already experiencing depression, anxiety and stress, we are also more prone to poor self-care.
I would argue that good physical self-care habits are incredibly important to develop and maintain for better mental and emotional health.
