Congratulations. You are here, which means you’ve already taken the first step to a better you.
Welcome to Intentional Talk Therapy, a non-judgmental space to explore challenges, discover strengths
and create ways to mindfully walk through adversity with a little bit of grit, grace & gratitude.
Engage.
Hey there, I’m Valarie, a Licensed Professional Counselor in Kansas.
I walk alongside of you in your mental health journey, helping you discover strengths, heal yourself and reach life goals. I help you create a personalized path built upon your unique experiences, needs & aspirations so you may lead a life full of peace, purpose and meaning.
I help you gather tools, insight and encouragement to explore different ways of thinking and how you can shift behavior patterns to better serve your goals.
Intentional Talk Therapy is a professional telehealth counseling service designed to meet you where you are. If you’re ready to unpack some challenges, load up on self-love and explore things that might be holding you back, I invite you to reach out as you engage in your healing process.
Empower.
I am a strength-based mental health therapist, which means even when exploring the rugged terrain, I’ll be cheering you on and celebrating your strengths and skills.
I offer deep listening so that your thoughts and feelings are heard, validated, and supported. You’ll receive respect for your situation with unconditional positive regard (google that word, it’s awesome).
I’ll help you identify, understand and let go of unhealthy coping habits, unwanted behavior, negative thoughts, communication ruptures, unproductive defense mechanisms and generational patterns that no longer serve you.
I’ll help you become the person you want to be by empowering the person you already are.
Enlighten.
Let’s face it, sometimes life can be challenging.
We can rise above.
Together, we’ll illuminate your path to peace & purpose by increasing awareness of self & situation.
If you’re feeling empty, let’s replenish you. If you feel surrounded in sorrow, let’s start to seek even the smallest slices of joy. If you’re struggling with adversities, big or small or anywhere in between, let’s learn to overcome.
Let’s create a route that’s right for you with understanding & empathetic encouragement. If you’re ready to get intentional about your healing goals, let’s achieve them together. I look forward to the opportunity to co-create and celebrate a life you love.
“Peace is not merely a distant goal that we seek, but a means by which we arrive at that goal.”
