Christopher Read
Christopher Read is a licensed marriage and family therapist affiliated with Adult, Child & Family Counseling out in Wichita, Kansas. He holds a master’s of science in family therapy and has close to seven years’ experience in helping adults and families navigate the difficulties that can come up in the contexts of personal and family life. A Collaborative, Freeing Approach One of Mr. Read’s main areas of specialization is helping adults (aged 18 and older) deal with and move past conditions like ADHD, depression, anxiety, and struggles rooted in childhood trauma. Each of these issues can feel burdensome and disqualifying, so he mixes evidence-based techniques with humor and authenticity in each session to help his clients relax and open up. This approach also helps clients feel like, while the team at Adult, Child & Family facilitates the healing on the journey, their personal aspirations define the destination. Building Healthier Relationships As a marriage and family therapist, Mr. Read is also specifically trained to help families work through conflict and build stronger relationships, whether this is in the context of a couple, a parent and their child, or some other familial permutation.

Mental Health in Kansas
There are plenty of positives about living in Kansas, from the abundant farmland to the comfortable cost of living, but the state struggles when it comes to mental health care. In fact, a report from Mental Health America ranked it as the worst state in the country for mental health care in 2022.
While Kansas doesn’t necessarily have higher rates of mental illness, the problem is a lack of access to care. According to the Bureau of Health Workforce, Kansas is currently meeting just 26% of the need for mental health professionals, which is lower than the US’s national average. Cost is a factor as well – of the adults in Kansas who don’t get the mental health care they need, 52% name cost as the reason.
Unfortunately, the low access to care is reflected in Kansas’s fatalities. Kansas has a much higher suicide rate than the US average: 19.4 per 100,000 people compared to the US’s 14.1 per 100,000 people.
The good news is that there are signs of improvement. There are programs and resources building throughout the state, and that Mental Health America report that ranked Kansas in 51st place in 2022 found notable improvements, moving Kansas up to 22nd place in 2023.
