Brice Sanner, LCMFT

Licensed Clinical Marriage and Family Therapist 

Brice is excited to be in business with his best friend and wife, Lindsay. While Brice enjoys working with many different populations, he is guided by compassion and science to gain a deeper understanding of emotions and the human brain. He comes from the thought that YOU are the expert on YOUR life. Your thoughts, feelings, sensations, experiences-they are all unique to you. So if you are looking for a sense of direction, relief, and overall happiness, it is important to explore all aspects of yourself to gain a better understanding.

If you would like to schedule an appointment with Brice, please contact Bernadette. Brice accepts most major insurance, including Blue Cross and Blue Shield. Please reach out to Bernadette for information regarding discounted Self-Pay rates.

Brice has a unique story that has shaped his journey to becoming a therapist. Brice was in the banking industry for nearly a decade when he felt a desire to give back to his community. His background demonstrates his passion for helping people: Before entering the MFT program, he spent a summer in Jacksonville, Florida doing beach evangelism; he assisted at an inner city Church with upwards of 150 youth and only 20 adults in attendance; he has also coached and mentored an inner city youth softball league.   Brice is excited to continue to support the community of Andover.  Brice is an alumnus of Leadership Butler. 

While Brice isn’t spending time around Andover Family Counseling, you can find him at his son’s baseball or soccer games in Andover, attending Andover Chamber of Commerce events, taking his daughter to story time at the Andover Public Library, or dreaming of catching trout in Colorado. Please feel free to reach out to Brice if you have any questions.

Ragan Snyder-Smith (she/her)

Licensed Specialist Clinical Social Worker

Registered Play Therapist-Supervisor  

Ragan is not currently accepting new clients at this time. 

Hi! I’m Ragan (she/her)!

A little about me: I enjoy board games, Dungeons and Dragons, all things geek, unicorns, renaissance festivals, spending time with my family and friends, reading, coffee, traveling and watching cheesy B-movies. I appreciate the opportunity to work with people from diverse backgrounds, cultural experiences, and orientations. I celebrate body and weight positivity, geekiness, and radical acceptance with anyone whose lifestyle or interests are outside of the mainstream.

I will work to create a safe, authentic, and non-judgmental atmosphere while holding space for you to process difficult thoughts, feelings, sensations, and experiences. If you are motivated to make changes to achieve the best version of yourself, it’s very possible that we would work well together. Transparency and authenticity are two of my top values.

I am a bit outside the box, so my approaches are, too: I will incorporate humor, play, sand tray, board games, yoga, expressive arts, pop culture, comics, and other creative work into our sessions along with more traditional elements of therapy. I want you to understand the work we do together so I provide education and resources along the way. All interventions are rooted in evidence-based practice.

My areas of interest are (List is not exhaustive): 

• LGBTQIA+

• Geeks, nerds, and gamers
  

• Alternative lifestyles

• The helpers: educators, first responders and healthcare workers, caregivers of those with a terminal / chronic illness, parents of children with special needs

• Identity & transitions: Women in midlife, life adjustments & transitions (divorce, blended families, empty nest), maternal health/identity (moms of multiples, parenting after a trauma, birth trauma, postpartum depression), infertility/pregnancy loss

• Neurodivergence: giftedness, ADHD, Autism, etc.

• Mental Health Support: depression, anxiety, complex trauma and grief 

For those who like to know about qualifications: I have a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and a Master’s degree in Social Work from Wichita State University. I also have a Master’s in Education from Newman University. I have had specialized training related to trauma, the LGBTQIA+ population,  therapy, somatic interventions, anxiety disorders, parts work, geek/nerd mental health interventions, neurobiology, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (List is not exhaustive). I have extensive training in sexuality, gender and alternative lifestyles.  I have my Trauma-Focused CBT Certification and I have received EMDR Training through an EMDRIA approved provider and am working towards becoming a Certified EMDR Therapist. Additionally, I have a post-graduate credential as a Registered Play Therapist-Supervisor from the Association for Play Therapy. I also provide training for mental health clinicians and supervision for those seeking licensure as a LSCSW in the state of Kansas and nationally as a Registered Play Therapist.

You shouldn’t have to tone down your passions, quirks, or any part of yourself in therapy. These things make you who you are, and who you are is welcome here. Contact me to schedule an appointment.
