Kristine Avelluto
Introduction
You deserve a space where you can be honest, understood, and supported without judgment. At Summit Therapeutic Services in Kansas City, I work with adolescents, young adults, and families who are ready for meaningful change. Many of my clients are navigating addictive behaviors or substance use, anger, anxiety, ADHD, depression, grief and loss, OCD, PTSD or trauma, attachment wounds, codependency, or spiritual and religious confusion. If any of this feels familiar, you’re not alone—and you’re exactly the kind of person I’m committed to helping. If you’re ready to begin—or simply want to ask a few questions—please reach out. My approach is practical, compassionate, and tailored to your needs. I integrate Acceptance & Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Anger Management, Grief Counseling, Somatic Therapy, Stress Management, and Trauma‑Informed Care. Christian counseling is also offered to those interested. Together, we’ll identify what’s keeping you stuck, strengthen your coping skills, and build a life that feels grounded, empowered, and authentic. Whether you’re a parent seeking support for your teen, a young adult trying to find direction, or someone working through trauma or spiritual confusion, therapy can be a turning point.
