Introduction

Hello, I am Kristy Pauls and I earned my master’s degree in clinical psychology from Emporia State University. I have over 30 years of experience in the mental health field including community and prison mental health programs, foster care system, family preservation, partial hospitalization, and private practice. My private practice is 100% Accelerated Resolution Therapy® (ART) which involves eye movements to help your brain do the work to heal. I have been trained in ART since 2016 and even train other therapists in ART. I am a certified Masters ART Therapist. I also do trainings for non-mental health clinicians and people with the Sensation Awareness Focused Technique (SAF-T) which utilizes a portion of the Basic ART protocol. I have utilized ART with an array of issues, such as emergency mental health, community mental health (SPMI population), suicidality, and domestic violence, as well as depression, anxiety, phobias, sports performance and an array of other issues. Because I work for United Health Care as a Care Coordinator for the Kansas SED Waiver program, I only offer evening and weekend appointments. I prefer you call me at 620-340-9518 and discuss my referral process before scheduling an appointment online. I believe that everyone deserves to have relief from stress, trauma, or any other mental health symptom, and that ART is the therapeutic modality that can make that happen.
