About
Barry Plumlee is a marriage and family therapist licensed in both Kansas and Missouri with 19 years of clinical experience. He has worked extensively as a family and children’s therapist and has served as a crisis clinician for community mental health centers, providing crisis care and short-term inpatient services when needed.
Barry has supported people confronting a broad range of concerns, including trauma-based disorders, depression, anxiety, family relationship struggles, parenting challenges, ADHD, and oppositional defiant disorder. His practice emphasizes collaboration with individuals and families to address these difficulties rather than directing or dictating solutions.
His therapeutic manner is warm and interactive while remaining direct, often incorporating a bit of respectful humor. Barry integrates cognitive-behavioral techniques with structural, client-centered, and trauma-focused or trauma-informed approaches to tailor care to each person’s needs. He treats clients with respect, sensitivity, and compassion throughout the therapy process.
Barry primarily sees clients in Missouri and schedules most appointments in the evenings and on Sundays after 12pm. He looks forward to working in partnership with families and individuals to help them resolve struggles and build coping skills.

Is Online Therapy the Right Fit for Your Needs?
For many common concerns - such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, or major life transitions - online therapy can be as effective as traditional in-person care. Research and clinical experience support its use for these everyday mental health challenges, and many people find it a practical alternative to office-based sessions.
One of the main benefits is flexibility. Clients can choose the communication method that works best for them, whether that is video sessions, phone calls, live chat, or in-app messaging. This adaptability can make it much easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to maintain continuity of care during life changes.
All participating clinicians are licensed professionals, and clients have the option to switch therapists if they need a different fit. Online therapy can be a convenient, accessible way to engage with a trained therapist while managing practical constraints like time and location.
