Christy Edwards
(She/Her/Hers)
Certified Addiction Counselor (CAC), Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW)
My practice is based on a strength's perspective, using a collaborative approach to each session.
I have been practicing for over 30 years and been in private practice for 20 years. My experiences include working in reintegration programs, school programs, outpatient treatment and State of Kansas consultant. Along with licensing in additions and mental health, I am also a certified meditation instructor. I believe in whole health, body, mind and spirit. In sessions we look at what is working well and what isn't. You set the goals needed to achieve better awareness to make changes.
