Discover Counseling

At Discover Counseling, we believe that every individual deserves to live a life that is true to who they are. We offer a safe and secure environment where you can express yourself freely without fear of judgment. Our experienced team of licensed clinical professional counselors, Charles West, LCPC, and Briana West, LPC, are dedicated to helping you navigate through your emotional journey and find a path to self-discovery and growth.

Individual Therapy

Our individual therapy sessions are designed to help you explore your feelings, thoughts, and behaviors in a non-judgmental space. It often begins with a breaking point or a feeling that "something's off." As you progress through the treatment, themes emerge around improving core psychological functions such as emotional regulation, self-awareness, and impulse control. You will learn to manage stress, process grief or loss, understand relational distress, and work through trauma. Our goal is to help you become more like yourself, more of the time.

Family & Couples Therapy

Our family and couples therapy sessions focus on repairing trust, stopping unwanted behaviors, finding deeper understanding, processing grief or loss, managing dysfunction, and getting back on the same page. Whether you are coupling, un-coupling, or preparing for marriage, our therapy can help you understand conflict in attachment bonds, acknowledge and express ruptures, and address past trauma or abuse. We aim to establish a secure environment where you can communicate effectively and build stronger relationships.

Our Therapists

Charles West, LCPC, has an MA in counseling with an emphasis in Marriage, Family & Couples counseling. He is currently a candidate at the Greater Kansas City Psychoanalytic Institute. Briana West, LPC, specializes in anxiety, depression, self-esteem, and racial trauma, as well as pre-marital and couples counseling. She works with adolescents, adults, and family systems seeking healing and growth.

A Place to Be Heard

At Discover Counseling, we believe that every individual deserves a place to be heard, to explore, and express themselves without fear of judgment. Our therapists are present, listen with compassion, and remain curious about you. They see you as equal, doing a lot of things well and worth listening to. We strive to create a dynamic, open, and close relationship with you, where reflection can happen safely and moments are shared together.

Reliable and Secure Environment

We understand the importance of a secure and reliable environment for your therapy sessions. We take confidentiality seriously and ensure that your information is protected at all times. Our goal is to create a space where you feel comfortable sharing your thoughts and feelings without any fear of judgment or exposure.
