Hello, my name is Dr. Tess DeProw. I have a Doctorate in Clinical Psychology and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Missouri. I have helped many people struggling with depression, drug addiction, relationship breakups, childhood trauma, parenting issues and anxiety. I will work with you to help you identify what your personal strengths are and together we will develop a plan to improve the quality of your life. I used several different therapeutic approaches: cognitive-behavioral therapy, strength-based therapy, motivational interviewing and narrative therapy. All of the tools I use are designed to empower you and help you see that you do have choices as to how we handle the situations that we are faced with. Sometimes the fear of change is scarier than the change itself. My personal counseling style is warm, empathetic, encouraging and empowering.

I was born and raised in rural northwest Missouri. My experience has given me an understanding of the unique mental health challenges faced by individuals in small rural communities. Driven by a passion for helping others, I pursued a career in social work, earning both my Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees from Missouri State University, before earning my clinical license in social work. I strive to bring my wealth of experience to my practice, having worked in inpatient, outpatient, and in-home settings. My holistic approach allows me to connect with clients of all ages and backgrounds, helping them navigate their personal journeys towards healing and growth.
