Welcome to KPA!

Psychology in Kansas is not the same without you and it is not the same without Kansas Psychological Association.


Diversity Holiday/Special Dates Calendar

October stands for Global Diversity Awareness Month which hopes to promote respect for all cultures. By taking time to learn about those around you, there becomes a better sense of understanding and acceptance.

We also honor National Disability Employment Awareness Month this month. This awareness month advocates for those with disabilities and for inclusion in the workforce.

Prevention is key and that’s what Breast Cancer Awareness Month hopes everyone knows. As one of the leading causes of cancer deaths in women, regular breast screenings are the first step toward not only prevention but early treatment of the disease.

October 1 – 4 – Rosh Hashanah*- The Jewish New Year is a time of both reflection and repentance. It begins the High Holy Days, which will end with Yom Kippur.

October 9 – Indigenous People’s Day coincides with Columbus Day and honors the indigenous people living in the United States and the violence they have suffered in history.

October 10 – World Mental Health Day is an important day advocates for mental health awareness and education. Mental Illness Awareness Week is celebrated the first week of the month too.

October 14 – ­Defender of Ukraine Day celebrates those who have fought or are still fighting for the freedom of Ukraine today.

October 19 – International Pronouns Day- Being referred to as the wrong pronoun is a common discrimination that transgender or nonconforming people face. We can transform society by not only understanding different gender identity pronouns, but identity terms too.

Looking for a Therapist? 

Practicing psychologists have the professional training and clinical skills to help people learn to cope more effectively with life issues and mental health problems. After years of graduate school and supervised training, they become licensed by their states to provide a number of services, including evaluations and psychotherapy. Psychologists help by using a variety of techniques based on the best available research and consider someone's unique values, characteristics, goals and circumstances.

The Kansas Psychological Association provides a searchable list of KPA members who  are licensed to practice by the State of Kansas. Listings contained in this section are based on information given by the providers.
