🥕🍎 Healthy Eating Tip from Kanza’s Health & Wellness Coach, Lisa Murphy! 💚

Healthy eating doesn’t have to break the bank! One of the easiest ways to save money on groceries while adding more nutritious foods to your meals is to shop for fruits and vegetables that are in season. 🛒✨

September brings plenty of delicious options—from apples, pears and grapes to broccoli, sweet potatoes, tomatoes, pumpkin and more! 🍎🍇🍅🎃

💡 Lisa’s Wellness Tip: Before heading to the grocery store, check what produce is in season and plan a few of your meals around those items. Seasonal produce is often more affordable, fresh, and full of flavor!

Small choices can make a big difference for both your health AND your grocery budget! 💚

Thank you to our Health & Wellness Coach, Lisa Murphy, for helping us find simple ways to make healthy choices every day! 🥦💪

💜 Meet Kaysie Richter, PMHNP-BC!

Kanza Mental Health & Guidance Center is excited to welcome Kaysie Richter, PMHNP-BC, to our team! 🩺🧠

Kaysie earned her Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner certification through Graceland University and brings a wide variety of healthcare experience to Kanza. She has worked in healthcare since 2012 and has been a nurse since 2018, with experience as a Certified Surgical Scrub Tech, Oncology Nurse, Chemotherapy Nurse, Psychiatric Nurse, and in Care Management. Her mental health experience includes working as a Psychiatric Nurse at the Northwest Missouri Psychiatric Rehabilitation Center in St. Joseph, Missouri.

Kaysie enjoys working with children, adolescents, and adults and has an interest in helping individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, and other mental health concerns.

At the heart of Kaysie’s approach is a belief that every person deserves to feel heard, understood, and supported. 💜 She focuses on listening and collaboration, working alongside her clients to create individualized treatment plans that fit their unique needs, goals, and lifestyles. Through medication management, education, and whole-person care, Kaysie strives to provide a safe, supportive, and judgment-free environment where clients feel comfortable being open and honest.

Although Kaysie is new to our area, she is excited to learn more about the communities Kanza serves and especially looks forward to experiencing the connection that comes with small-town communities. 🏡

Outside of work, Kaysie loves spending time with her two children. You may also find her running, boxing, or relaxing with a good book! 🥊🏃‍♀️📚

✨ Kaysie wants anyone considering reaching out for help to know:

You don’t have to have everything figured out before asking for help. Taking that first step can be difficult, but you don’t have to go through it alone. Kaysie’s goal is to provide a comfortable, judgment-free space where you can be open and honest about what’s going on in your life.

💙 We’re so excited to have Kaysie as part of Team Kanza and can’t wait for our communities to get to know her!
