Hello! My name is Amy. I am a professional counselor with years of experience working with adults, families and adolescents. I have had the pleasure of working with youth and families with a range of concerns including parenting problems, family conflict, anxiety, depression, ADHD and career counseling. I have had specialized training to work with individuals who have experienced trauma. My counseling style is one of compassion and respect. I believe it is important to build a rapport with my clients and demonstrate respect, empathy and encouragement. I offer services that include a warm, empathetic and trauma informed approach while working with clients to improve their situation and support them with the goals they have for living their best life and improving their relationships. My approach is tailored to each person and their individual needs with styles that include solution-focused , person centered and cognitive behavioral counseling. Taking steps to care for yourself and making changes can be very scary and overwhelming. I know from experience how much life can change for the better when you accept support and be more intentional about taking care of yourself! I look forward to being that supportive and encouraging person in your life to empower you to live your best life!

Welcome and thank you for considering my services. I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor currently practicing in the state of Missouri for over 10 years. Counseling is my 2nd career and my true calling. Before I decided to follow this path, I spent over 15 years in the travel industry, living in Pennsylvania and Texas, and traveling across the US and Europe. I mention this because I believe it's helped me to become more culturally aware and open-minded in both my personal life and career. I have experience working with adults of all ages and across many settings, including private practice and intensive outpatient programs. Some of the most common issues I help my clients work through are depression, anxiety, work related stress, relationship problems, low self esteem, grief, divorce, chronic health issues, and dealing with major life changes. Previous clients have described me as compassionate, caring, practical, jovial, helpful, and encouraging and I continue to be inspired by their courage and dedication. I consider my approach to be positive, holistic, and solution focused and I specialize in cognitive and dialectical behavior therapy. I believe mindfulness, emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness are keys to a life worth living. It would be an honor to accompany you on this journey.

Welcome! Hey there. First, I want to congratulate you on taking the first step towards a pathway to happiness. I find that the most difficult step in the counseling process is reaching out for help. So, mark that off your list! I want to introduce myself. My name is Charna and I currently live in Missouri (Go Chiefs!). In my free time, I enjoy traveling, watching movies, reading terrible books, and spending time with family. I have a degree in Psychology and am a Licensed Clinical Social Work. I have over 10 years experience working with children, adolescents, and adults. I have worked with concerns such as anxiety, depression, self-harm, attachment issues, parenting challenges, trauma, and dealing with everyday challenges including life transitions. I believe that the client is the driver of the therapy process. I allow the client to decide goals and can either be a listening ear or offer advice/concrete strategies to deal with life’s challenges. I feel that no one should be judged and I will be impressed if you can say something that will shock me. I tend to use a person-centered, solutions focused approach for most counseling sessions. Although, I also have knowledge in Cognitive-behavior therapy, DBT, and several other approaches as well. No two people are the same and neither is my approach. I returned to being a Counselor because I truly believe that everyone has a path to happiness that sometimes needs to be found. Counseling can be a remarkable thing for people and I think the most important aspect in finding a counselor you can connect with. So, if you are ready to take this journey with me, then let’s begin in this process and learn from each other. Thank you!

Using a person-centered trauma-focused approach, I will help you learn to have a more fulfilling life. I believe in being real and providing unconditional positive regard which means that I accept you for how you are and believe that anyone is capable of having a new life. My diverse life experiences have provided me the tools to provide genuine empathy which is important to build that connection and trust. I have had several opportunities to work with diverse populations. I specialize in trauma and substance abuse and have worked a lot with anxiety, depression, foster care, self-esteem, and family conflict.

Beginning your healing journey is not easy as life experiences and changes can be difficult to navigate and can take you out of your comfort zone. I believe in providing an environment that is warm and nurturing to provide a safe space for you to work at your own pace. I have been in the mental health field for over 15 years; working with adults and youth that is geared toward meeting the needs of each individual. My non-judgmental approach to counseling is built on a foundation of rapport, trust, collaboration, positive regards and empowerment. Each session is intentional and designed to provide you a safe space to work on becoming the best version of yourself; there is no issue too large or small that cannot be addressed in counseling. My current work schedule for open sessions: Monday-Friday 9 am first session - 4 pm last session.

Hello! My name is Jer (he/they). I have experience working with all age groups but specialize in adolescents and adults. I have worked with people struggling with symptoms of depression, anxiety, ADHD/Autism, trauma, difficulties with sleep, stress, spirituality/religion, and many other areas of concern as well. I have also specifically worked with youth and adults of the LGBTQ+ and poly communities. I pride myself in being a safe space for all and particularly for those who align with every letter of the LGBTQIA+ community. Not just a safe space, but a member of these communities as well. I hold a Bachelor of Arts (BA) in Business Administration and a Master of Arts (MA) in Professional Counseling both from Ottawa University. I’m licensed to provide mental health therapy services in Oklahoma (LPC #7262) and Missouri (LPC #2021018466). I am a Veteran of the United States Navy (USN). I’m also an Indigenous American and a member of the Ottawa (Adawe) Tribe of Oklahoma.

Finding a provider that meets your needs can be a challenging process and it is one I am personally familiar with. Today, with the political turmoil, social and environmental injustices and more, it can be quite daunting to find a provider who understands what those being directly impacted by all the issues are experiencing. It is important to feel understood by your provider. It is my belief as a person and professional that BLACK/ASIAN/NATIVE/LGBTQ+/TRANS LIVES MATTER & We only have 1 Earth – We should treat it like it is our home. Because it is.” I would be honored for the opportunity to help you navigate through life toward discovering your purpose and overcoming any barriers you may find in your path. Reach out today! Let's get through this together!

As a counselor, I believe it is my role to provide a safe and compassionate space for each person that chooses to share their experience with me. My job is to help each person I see to explore past hurts, to put voice to feelings, and to help each person make meaning out of their life. It is my belief that many of us walk this world not fully allowing ourselves to come into our own, due to a fear of not being accepted and due to limiting beliefs given to us by others and society. As a counselor, I will provide a space of unconditional acceptance and compassion, in order to allow others to begin to see their authentic self. I will use different methods that suit each person and will encourage each person to make this process their own. When participating in couple's counseling, we will explore each person and what they bring to the relationship and how to build and enhance the relationship. Unity, learning love, and understanding are key to a long lasting relationship.
