Rian Dunkin, LPC

Adults, Couples and Family Therapist

Rian Dunkin, Therapist in Kearney MO

I specialize in helping adults, couples, and families work through anxiety, depression, borderline personality disorder (BPD), obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), relationship struggles, life transitions, stress, bipolar disorder, and self-confidence issues.

Whether you're battling intrusive thoughts, emotional highs and lows, or unhealthy relationship patterns, I provide a safe, supportive space where you can be heard and understood. Together, we’ll work on practical strategies to help you break free from negative cycles, build emotional resilience, and regain control of your life.

My approach is grounded in Solution-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), meaning I focus on helping you identify what’s keeping you stuck and guide you toward actionable solutions. Therapy isn’t just about talking—it’s about learning new ways to manage emotions, set boundaries, and create lasting change.

Outside of therapy, I find peace in the outdoors and enjoy spending time with my dog, Charlie. I believe in finding moments of beauty and calm, even in the midst of life’s chaos.
