Therapists in Missouri

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor licensed in Missouri. I have been working with clients for 17+ years. I have a varied background including working with those that suffer from substance use disorders, depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, life adjustment issues such as disability and retirement. I've also worked with many clients over the years that have suffered trauma related to abuse. As a counselor, I believe in treating everyone with respect and dignity. I always find it an honor to walk the path with clients on their journey. Your treatment will always go in the direction that you believe that it should. That doesn't mean I won't make the occasional suggestion but those suggestions will always be based on what you, as the client, say or want to pursue. It definitely takes courage to enter into therapy and address whatever issues are holding you back. If you are ready to take this step, I'm definitely ready to walk with you on your journey.

Hello and welcome! I am a marriage and family therapist licensed in Missouri and Nevada with 25+ years of experience working with individuals, couples, and families. My therapy style is warm, caring, and engaging while striving to provide a safe environment for clients to find the help and support they need to make positive changes. I am passionate about building strong, trusting, and judgement-free relationships and working collaboratively with clients so they can begin to live more peaceful, fulfilling, authentic, and healthy lives. Are you feeling alone, overwhelmed, or just trying hard to maintain? Are you struggling in a relationship? Do unresolved painful memories keep you from living your best life? I understand how difficult it can be to seek help and the courage it takes to make that first step. If not now, then when? Counseling is a place of hope and a gift you can give yourself that will benefit you and those you love. My approach in therapy is person-centered and strengths-based. I provide psycho-education and use a variety of therapeutic interventions including cognitive-behavioral, motivational interviewing, DBT, EMDR (level 1), narrative, solution focused, mindfulness, insight therapies, and family system theories. I look forward to working with you!

I’m a therapist with over 20 years of experience and specialized training in grief therapy. I help people navigate all the messy, complicated emotions that come with grief—and let’s be honest, grief doesn’t just happen when we lose someone we love (including animals). It can also show up after a breakup, a job, a friendship, or even during major life transitions and crisis. Whatever your grief looks like, I’m here to support you as you figure out how to move forward. On a personal note, I was born with a birth defect, spina bifida and use a wheelchair full-time, which gives me a unique perspective on navigating life as a person with a disability. I understand some of the complexities and curveballs that come with it, and I’m here to provide a compassionate, understanding space for anyone on a similar path. My therapy style is laid-back and conversational. I use Person-Centered Therapy, which means I trust that you’re the expert in your own life, and I’m here to help you find your own answers. I also incorporate Brief Solution-Focused Therapy for when you’re looking for more immediate, practical tools. A few fun facts about me: I work from home, so you might hear or see one of my four dogs in the background. I love animals (and talking about them), and over the past few years, I’ve worked with many people grieving the loss of their furry (or feathered) family members. I’m also a firm believer that therapy should be a space where you feel comfortable and understood—no judgment, no pressure, just support. If you think I might be a good fit for you, I’d love to help you on your journey. And if for some reason I’m not the right therapist for you, I’ll do my best to help you find someone who is.

Welcome! My name is Rachel and I am happy that you are here seeking guidance on your journey in life! Counseling is a great resource with a variety of tools that can help with a wide array of concerns. I congratulate you and your show of courage in taking this first step! I urge you to take some time to find the Counselor that is the right fit for you as we do not come 'one size fits all.' I will tell you a little bit about myself to help you decide: With a Master's Degree in Community Counseling, I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in the state of Missouri (License #2021020473), a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in the state of Kansas (License #LCPC 03929) and have also held School Counseling Credentials. I have worked in public school systems and private practice allowing me to view situations from a multitude of perspectives. I have worked with children, teens, young adults, and adults on concerns such as behavior issues, stress, anxiety, relationships, and motivation. I tend to focus on the here-and-now and use techniques that are centered around you. I am here to help guide. I do offer all modes of communication - Live Video, Live Phone, Live Messaging (you schedule a Live Session and we message back and forth within that time frame ), and Messaging (responses are not in real time and may take anywhere from a few minutes to hours/days depending on day of week). I do require that all new members start with 1 Initial Live Video Session so I can match the name to the face, verify information, and go over some basics. After that, all other sessions may be any combination of the above listed modes. I pray you find the positive reassurances you are looking for on this journey! If you believe I may be the right fit, I look forward to hearing from you! FYI: In terms of scheduling, I offer Live Sessions at times that accommodate the busy lives of my clients and of myself and my family. The earliest Live Session Appointments I have available begin at 9:00 PM. I know the late times are not a fit for everyone so I want to make sure this is known right from the start so there are no surprises.
