About Holly Paine

I am licensed in Kansas with 6 years of professional work experience. I have helped clients with stress, anxiety, LGBTQ+ related issues, coping with grief, coping with loss, depression, concentration, memory, and much more.

I have an eclectic approach with a strong Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) leaning. I do my best to adapt my methods to each client’s individual needs and style.

I view my clients with an unconditional, positive regard. I strive to meet my clients where they are at while also encouraging growth at their pace. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. This includes welcoming clients with a “come as you are” attitude. I want clients to be able to be themselves with me, whatever that may look like.

It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support and empower you in that journey.

“Holly has been wonderful and great help to me. She listens and explores my problems with me at my own pace and in my own time. Her tools and suggestions have very useful to my well-being.”

“Holly has truly helped me through the hardest times of my life so far and honestly I’m not sure how I would’ve done it without her support! She keeps things not so clinical and helps you feel comfortable in every way possible! She’s definitely helped with last minute scheduling changes when I needed her the most!!! Thank you!”

“Holly has been an incredible person to talk to and figure out my mental state. I have had a lot of emotional things going on in my life and holly has helped me navigate through each one. This has been a great first experience with therapy and would highly recommend Holly to anyone.”

“Holly offers amazing insight and gives amazing advice accordingly. She listens very intently and shows a high level of expertise in her field.”

“Holly gets a VERY GOOD review from me. She listens, and offers good advice.”

“Holly is really great at messaging you back through the week as things are going on in my life. I don’t feel like I can only talk to her during my scheduled calls and that has helped tremendously.”
