Our Mission

Here at Renew, we seek to support and empower our clients and community to grow emotionally, physically, spiritually, and relationally with compassion and integrity through excellent counseling services in a safe and accepting environment. If anxiety or depression has affected your joy, overwhelming emotions have stolen your peace, or shame has clouded your identity, know that change is possible. Our skilled counselors are here to accompany you on your journey, providing a safe and confidential space to navigate life's challenges. The collaborative partnership between counselor and client offers hope for a life of peace, restoration, and emotional well-being. To schedule an appointment in Olathe or Lawrence, click "Hope Starts Here" or call 913.768.6606 for a callback within one business day.

Our Team

Perhaps you wonder what a counselor would do for you? We know it takes an immense amount of courage to come here, to explore what help looks like, and question if there is hope for you. Our highly trained, caring counselors don’t have all the answers but they will partner with you so you don’t have to travel this path alone. This collaborative partnership of counselor and client provides an opportunity to explore the issues you are dealing with in a safe, confidential matter. A life of peace, hope, and restoration is possible for you and your family!
