Shayla Orten, LMSW, PMH C

Behavioral Health

"My therapeutic approach is person-centered, and strengths-based to collaboratively explore the heart of the issue and help patients find clarity and relief. I believe in coming alongside the patient to help them work through trauma, grieving and loss, or simply providing support of life stressors by listening. In sessions we work together to identify strengths, develop skills, and create strategies so that the patient can overcome their challenges and walk through them.” 

Raised in St. Francis, Kansas, Shayla studied social work at Fort Hays State and received her Master’s at KU. She has been in the mental health field since 2016, including some years in a school setting. Shayla has lots of family in the Atwood area.
