Prior to beginning her career as a Marriage and Family Therapist, Mallory built years of experience as a Registered Nurse working in critical care and trauma settings. Being a support and guide to people during some of their most impactful and intimate experiences of life in the healthcare setting led her to realizing her passion for connection and relationships throughout the many relationships we experience in our lifetimes. After walking her own path with loss, grief, and deep sadness, Mallory recognized that her draw to relational experiences combined with a fought-for-and-earned grit and tenacity had brought her to a place of being prepared to walk alongside you with heartfelt empathy as you navigate through some of your toughest challenges.
Through her own journey with mental health and her own experiences with therapy, Mallory discovered purposeful healing and experienced firsthand the transformative power of reconnecting with oneself through exploration of core wounds, innate strengths, and identifying our own personal ways of making sense and meaning of the world around us. She believes that we are all deserving of our own version of healing and finding the ability to reclaim our identity through finding meaning and purpose in our stories – both the joyful ones and the painful ones. Mallory is honored to embark on your unique journey with you.
Mallory is sex-positive and kink friendly, as well as a welcoming and affirming presence for LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC individuals. She embraces areas of sociocultural difference with humble curiosity and an anti-oppressive approach to mental health and wellness.
While the session rates listed are Mallory’s full price service fees, it is important to her that access to mental health be available to individuals who need it most. Mallory is honored to offer BIPOC reparation rates, sliding scale rates, and student rates as availability allows. Please reach out to her directly at mallory@simpleempathykc.com if you would like to discuss a different session rate that aligns with your financial needs.
