THE ANALOG NETWORK

elise sanders, ma, lcpc

Hello! I’m Elise. I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor and a trained psychoanalytic psychotherapist. I have been practicing here in KC for 6 years. I have presented locally on knowing and caring for our emotional selves as well as led various groups for creatives and entrepreneurs.

I love working with women and LGBTQ folks that are longing to know themselves more deeply and have more fulfilling and connective relationships. In our work together, my hope is for you to feel more wholly you and embodied, uncovering unknown aspects of yourself and allowing parts of yourself you learned early on that you needed to hide or modify. You find yourself feeling anxious and self doubting despite your capability and credibility. We will explore what holds you back and keeps you repeating unfulfilling patterns and relationships.

I work with: attachment issues, relationship issues, poly and open relationships, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, life transitions, self esteem issues, identity issues, disordered eating, hyper criticism, developmental trauma, religious trauma, complex trauma, unwanted habits, over working, obsessive focus, burnout and artistic blocks. Individual & Couples.

Jamie Roach, MA, LPC*

Facing life's challenges can be daunting, yet it's a testament to our courage and desire to fully engage with life. Whether you're seeking personal growth, navigating relationship difficulties, or undergoing transitions, I offer a supportive space for you and your loved ones. My work aims to foster deeper self-awareness and connection, paving the way for more peace, love, and joy. I enjoy working with individuals, couples, and families.

My approach to therapy is rooted in psychodynamic and experiential theories, and it's built on the understanding that we are inherently relational beings. Feeling isolated or misunderstood is so painful, while the presence of a caring other can be profoundly healing.

Recognizing the need for therapy is a brave step. It's not a sign of a flaw, but of openness and resilience. As your guide, I'm committed to creating a safe space for authenticity and exploration, helping you uncover the richness within and embark on a path towards a more fulfilling life. Individual, Couples & Family.

Jewel anderson, ma, lcpc

Hi, I am Jewel, a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor. I have 10 years of experience helping individuals and couples navigate the confusing and painful parts of life.

When asked what drew me to the counseling profession the simple answer is: I love stories. I also love the complex layers that make us who we are. I have a background in art, which I believe helps me navigate the abstract spaces within the therapeutic process.

From a young age we learn, for better and for worse, how to survive. Our unconscious creates creative, yet at times maladaptive, ways to protect ourselves. Therefore, I use depth therapies, such as Psychodynamic therapy, in order to explore defenses that keep us stuck. Feeling stuck can look and feel like: Anxiety, Depression, Grief & Loss, Unresolved Trauma, Relationship Issues, Low Self Esteem, Shame, & More. I also utilize body based techniques, such as mindfulness and deep breathing, to connect to unprocessed emotion within the body.

In this process we will slow down in this fast paced world and create space just for you. I will join you in your struggle, and together we will explore the unknown to find your voice, to get you to your goals. Individual/Couples.

Holly Anderson, MA, LCMFT

Come on in! I am Holly, a heart filled earnest dreamer passionate about partnering with hardworking driven individuals and couples who long to understand why they feel so overwhelmed inside. You tell yourself that you should be happy, that you have a life that is a dream come true, expect you keep wanting to wake up to a reality in which you feel more alive. Life has started to feel mundane and draining. If life had a star student, you’d be it, but you keep waiting for the bell to ring so you can take a vacation from all this carefully constructed perfection. 

In our work together, I celebrate your success, challenging you to examine how your hustle overshadows your desire, and call you to explore the tender hidden desires of your heart. While it is a joy to create mastery in your career, underneath there are still parts of you trying to capture your attention. Together we will explore your longings to understand your relationships, your past, and what you ultimately want in this life. 

You, my dear traveler, have your own intricate story that has led you to this moment. You have been searching for a therapist who can hold your strength, as well as your tears. I will be with you as you unravel the feelings inside and begin to understand your mystery, so you can chart your own path on the map of your life. Individual/Couples.

Lillian Giocondo, MA, LPC*

As a licensed professional counselor specializing in Somatic Experiencing, I delight in working with people who desire to wake up (or slow down) and discover the life they want to live. You see, my passion lies in helping individuals awaken to the life they truly desire, and Somatic Experiencing is a powerful tool in this process. It’s like gently peeling back the layers of an onion, delicately unraveling the knots that have kept you feeling stuck or disconnected. It’s discovering patterns you want to savor and patterns you want to change. With Somatic Experiencing, we don’t always need words to articulate our deepest struggles. Instead, we tune into the language of the body – its sensations, its rhythms, its whispers of wisdom.

Healing isn’t a solo journey. It’s about connection. Together, we’ll tap into the transformative power of therapy, integrating mind, body, and spirit to bring balance and wellness into your life. Through this journey, you’ll discover a newfound sense of wholeness and resilience that extends far beyond the confines of our time together. I invite you to reach out for more information! Individual only.
