Kansas City, MO Therapy and Counseling

I am a licensed professional counselor (LPC) with a master's degree in clinical counseling and over 5 years of experience in the mental health field, including the past four years providing direct therapy. I have extensive experience working with teens and young adults, supporting them through a range of emotional and behavioral challenges while providing a supportive space for growth and healing. My approach is client-centered, practical, and goal-oriented. I integrate principles from therapy, sports psychology, and coaching to help clients build resilience, improve emotional regulation, and develop meaningful, lasting change.

I am bilingual in English and Spanish, which allows me to effectively support a diverse client population and provide culturally responsive care. Originally from Venezuela, I moved to St. Louis at the age of 16. I have also traveled to over 20 countries, shaping my cultural awareness and ability to connect with clients from a wide range of backgrounds.

At 32, I bring both clinical training and real-world perspective to my work, helping clients move forward with clarity, confidence, and purpose.

I am a licensed certified social worker (LCSW) with 5 years of experience supporting clients through anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, life transitions, and challenging family or relationship dynamics. I help individuals build emotional awareness, strengthen coping skills, and navigate stress with greater clarity and confidence.

I hold a master’s degree in social work from New York University and have worked with clients in both in-person and virtual settings. My approach draws from cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness-based techniques, and strengths-focused interventions to help clients manage symptoms, increase resilience, and make sustainable progress.

You deserve a space where you feel safe, respected, and empowered to explore your experiences without judgment. Together, we’ll identify what’s holding you back, build practical tools that fit your life, and move at a pace that feels right for you. I would be honored to support your relief, growth, and balance.

Hi! My name is Keana and I have worked in the mental health field since 2012. I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Missouri, and I have a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from Tennessee State University and a Master of Science from Lipscomb University in Nashville, TN. I have devoted the past 11 years of my career to working almost exclusively with survivors of domestic violence, intimate partner violence, sexual violence, and PTSD, and I have experience working in community mental health, both outpatient and IOP.

I support my clients by providing them with a physically and emotionally safe space to exist and unpack their story. In early treatment sessions, I focus my attention on getting to know them as a person, followed by working to better understand the challenges they're experiencing in their day-to-day lives.

Overall, my goal is to create a space where you feel safe, heard, and supported as you work through your story. If it sounds like my approach would be a good fit for you, schedule a session with me. I look forward to meeting you!
