Sunflower Medical Group’s Counseling Services
Our Kansas City psychologists treat a full range of mental health conditions. They can help you get through trying life circumstances, whether it be relationship issues, family conflict, painful emotions, and more. Whatever mental health issues you’re experiencing, we’re here to help you get through it through counseling and treatment.
You’re not alone if you’re experiencing issues with your mental health. Here are the most common mental health conditions we treat:
Counseling for Depression
If you’re suffering from depression, you’re not alone. Depression manifests itself in a variety of ways and has a wide range of severity. This includes feelings of being stuck in a rut or having the seasonal blues, melancholia, to a more serious condition, such as major depressive disorder.
Our therapists use cognitive behavioral therapy, which has been proven to be an effective treatment for depression. This type of therapy helps you get out of negative thought patterns and replace them with more positive ones over time.
Counseling for Anxiety
Anxiety is a sensation of fear, worry, and uneasiness. It can be intense and overwhelming and may interfere with your relationships, job, or schoolwork. We treat anxiety disorders such as agoraphobia, acute stress disorder, interpersonal anxiety disorder (interpersonal phobia), obsessive-compulsive disorder, specific phobias, panic attacks, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), social anxiety disorder (social phobia), and others.
Counseling for PTSD
If you’ve gone through a traumatic event, you may be experiencing PTSD. Our therapists are trained to help identify triggers and manage your symptoms so you can have a more fulfilling life.
Counseling for Grief
Grief is a profound emotional pain that can be brought on by the death of a loved one or the loss of a partner or other significant relationship. We’re here to help support you through this difficult time.
