OUR STORY

Jill and Sheena are both proud graduates of the Park University Master of Social Work program. Their journey began as classmates and evolved into a shared vision of creating a thriving, modern private practice. They both started their clinical careers at the former Clinical Counseling Associates Inc., a practice that has been serving the community for nearly 30 years. While both women are passionate about providing therapy, Jill and Sheena felt called to do more. In 2020, they purchased the practice and renamed it Clinical Counseling Associates of Kansas City, LLC. As owners, they began reshaping the practice to reflect their values of building an innovative, client-centered space with a wide variety of specialized services.

They’ve since built a team of skilled therapists, each offering unique specialties. Jill and Sheena set out to provide not only traditional therapy services, but also a diverse range of therapeutic options designed to meet the individualized needs of every client who walks through the door. Specialized services include animal-assisted therapy, EMDR, play therapy, culturally competent services for military members and first responders, and discounted-rate internship program.

In addition to offering specialized services, Jill and Sheena are committed to meeting the broader needs of the community. This includes accepting insurance and employee assistance program (EAP) benefits, offering affordable self-pay options, and partnering with local agencies to expand access to quality mental health care.

Beyond their commitment to the community, Jill and Sheena are also dedicated to supporting other clinicians. They understand how challenging it can be to start in private practice and are passionate about mentoring and guiding others in achieving their professional dreams.

Together, they plan to continue expanding Clinical Counseling Associates of Kansas City throughout the metro area to increase access to high-quality mental health services.
