About John

John Koppenhaver is a Kansas-based therapist with 32 years of professional experience who focuses on creating an open, nonjudgmental space where thoughts and feelings can be explored. He holds an LCP, a Kansas clinical license that authorizes him to provide therapeutic services, and brings extensive experience working with adolescents as well as individuals involved with the justice system.

He has particular clinical experience supporting people who struggle with depression and suicidal thinking, and he prioritizes building trust so difficult subjects can be discussed safely. His practice emphasizes clear communication and practical support, helping clients address family concerns, stress and anxiety, and life transitions while respecting each person’s pace and perspective.

Beginning therapy can take courage, and John acknowledges that first step as meaningful. He works collaboratively with clients to identify goals and to develop coping strategies that fit their circumstances, whether the focus is on managing day-to-day distress, navigating family challenges, or addressing broader emotional concerns. John applies evidence-based therapeutic techniques tailored to each individual client and their situation, with the aim of fostering resilience and improved functioning.

John Koppenhaver uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical strategies to reduce distress and improve daily functioning. One stream of his approach emphasizes cognitive and behavioral strategies - helping clients identify unhelpful thoughts and develop alternative patterns of thinking and behavior to address symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress. Another emphasis is on emotion regulation and coping skills training - teaching concrete tools to manage intense feelings, improve interpersonal functioning, and navigate life transitions effectively.

Finding the right therapeutic fit is a collaborative process. John works with each client to assess needs, goals, and preferences, and adapts evidence-based methods to match what will be most helpful. He prioritizes shared decision making so that techniques are both effective and acceptable to the individual.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility for clients balancing work, family, or other responsibilities. Sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, allowing individuals to connect in the way that suits them best.
