Amy Treadwell

Amy Treadwell, MA, LPC, LCPC, is a Licensed Professional Counselor based in Kansas City, MO who provides individual counseling at Heartland Therapy Connection.  She believes that every person has the capacity for hope, belovedness and belonging. However, trust can be hard when past relationships haven’t felt safe, including the relationship with ourselves. Amy offers children, teens and adults a calm, consistent and courageous space to rediscover their strengths, navigate complex challenges, and harness their capacity for growth and healing.

Amy’s approach is based on respect for the client’s story, including their cultural context, inherent dignity, and unique worldview. Through calm, consistent presence, she creates a brave space where individuals can learn and practice coping skills, decrease emotional overwhelm, and begin to take manageable steps toward fulfilling life they desire. Amy takes a holistic approach, incorporating body-based awareness and mindfulness techniques that enhance healing and foster emotional resilience.

I can help with:

  • Trauma, attachment trauma, and resilience
  • Neurodiversity including Autism, ADHD and giftedness
  • Caregiver burnout
  • Childhood emotional neglect
  • Recovery from Narcissistic Abuse

Amy’s training includes:

  • Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)
  • Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT)
  • Trust-Based Relational Intervention (TBRI)
  • Family Systems Therapy
  • Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR)

Who my best fits are:

  • Adults, teens and children, especially negotiating family dynamics
  • Neurodivergent individuals and their familees
  • Families navigating foster care and adoption

Amy believes in the transformational power of therapy and has witnessed many adults, teens, children and families find hope and achieve safe, stable and healthy relationships. If you’re ready to better understand yourself and create meaningful change, she is honored to support you.
