Always welcome. Always Invited.

Don’t do life alone.

compassionate therapy for individuals, couples, and families

Life is hard. Don’t do it alone.

Navigating life’s challenges is hard enough. Especially when you feel isolated, alone or don’t have the support you need. That's where therapy comes in. Sitting with someone you don't know and discussing your biggest insecurities, trauma, or anxieties can be scary.

Yet, I believe it is worth the risk to find out you are not alone.

Healing takes vulnerability, connection, and courage. So when you are ready to ask for help, I am here to provide a trustworthy, safe, and collaborative counseling relationship. You deserve to feel supported, invited, and accepted for who you are and where you want to go in life.

I believe you are already amazing, you just need someone to help you explore, encourage, and provide a safe place to be yourself. With a true accepting relationship, I believe we can dig deep into your worries together to notice thoughts, patterns, and beliefs that may be holding you back.

I want to help you connect to your true, authentic, and amazing self.

We’ve got this.

Connect to your true self.

Jaime Duke, LCPC

Hi, I’m Jaime and I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor in Kansas trained in EMDR, Somatic Experiencing, and NARM.

As a therapist, my approach is relational. I believe therapy should feel like sitting with a trusted confidant. The type of person that will pull up a chair, pour a warm cup of coffee or tea, and listen to your struggles without judgement.

Maybe you don’t know what it’s like to have a person in your life like that, or maybe you are surrounded by tons of people, yet you still feel alone. If that is the case, I am so sorry. It shouldn’t be like that. You deserve true, authentic support.

If you are struggling with anxious thoughts, repeating unhealthy patterns, critical self-talk, or traumatic memories; it pains me you are going through this. I have been there and I get it. I want to help you process your struggles in a safe and loving environment.

Life is hard, and you shouldn’t have to face it alone. I believe you are your best self when you feel fully safe, authentic, and accepted for who you are. That’s why I would be honored to sit with you and offer a safe place to belong.

If you can’t accept yourself just as you are, and aren’t sure how to get there, I will provide that acceptance for you. Together we will work on expanding that acceptance, so you can connect to your true amazing self. 

I am here for you. Don’t do life alone anymore.

Specialties:

  • Trauma & PTSD are often thought of only if you have been in serious situations like a car accident. However, there are many types of trauma and with the uniqueness of each person, what is traumatic to one person may not be to another. My training with EMDR ( Eye Movement Desensitization & Re-processing), Somatic Experiencing (SE), and NARM for the treatment of trauma and complex or developmental trauma, allows me to help you process any thing that may have been too much, too soon, or not enough for you. Using this approach we will work to better integrate your mind and body and help you re-train your nervous system (or fight, flight, and freeze response) to be more flexible.

  • I have a passion for helping women heal. Especially, women who are experiencing PME or PMDD, menopausal symptoms, PCOS, Postpartum, Infertility, Endometriosis, or other hormonal health problems. These issues are often considered "taboo" or not talked about. This can leave women feeling isolated and alone. I want to change that and help you navigate these issues in a healthy and holistic way.

  • Anxiety can be debilitating and isolating. There are many ways it can present, and it can be hard to combat on your own. Maybe you notice critical self-talk, or always thinking about the worst-case scenario. Or maybe you heart will race, and you will feel like you can’t breathe out of nowhere. Or maybe you notice that large crowds or the grocery store will make you feel like your throat is going to close up. I want to help you reduce anxious thoughts and these scary physical symptoms.

  • There are many terms used to describe “people-pleasing”. Maybe you have heard the word “co-dependency” or wonder if you are “too nice”. Or maybe you are dealing with difficult personalities or someone in your life with narcissistic tendencies. I want to help you navigate the why behind these behaviors, help you increase self-compassion, communicate in a healthy way, and set boundaries that work for you.

  • Dating and relationships are hard. If you notice you tend to play out the same patterns, or feel more confused than connected, I am here to help. Together we will explore your attachment style and how it impacts your relationships and life. I especially enjoy helping women feel confident in dating or relationships, especially after a breakup, divorce, or infidelity.

  • I have a passion for working with fellow helpers/healers who need a safe place to prioritize their own self-care. Whether you are a nurse, doctor, social worker, counselor, therapist, teacher, first responder, emergency service worker, or other helper/healer, I would be honored to hear your story. The services you provide are imperative and so is your own mental health. I want to help you navigate the responsibility that comes with these roles in a healthy way.

  • ADHD, body image issues, boundaries, chronic pain/health issues, depression, grief & loss, life transitions, and mood disorders.
