William Wilson, LPC
About me
I am a licensed professional counselor in the State of Missouri, and I have been practicing for six years. I typically work with adolescents and adults, and I have experience treating a broad range of concerns. These include anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, spiritual crises, organizational skills and goals, communication, and relationships. I also have experience with grief and trauma, as well as abuse. Finally, I have also worked with couples and pre-marital counseling.
I utilize multiple different approaches, depending upon the context and the client's specific needs. For instance, I often utilize cognitive behavioral therapy, logotherapy, narrative therapy, and existential approaches. I appreciate the complexity of individual's and the variability each person's unique set of circumstances bring to the table. Hence, my approach reflects these observations, as I aim to avoid over-simplistic or reductionist views of people and their concerns.
Life can easily become overwhelming, as our daily experiences present us with a staggering amount of complexity and stress. It's not reasonable to assume that we can, or even should, handle these things on our own. We are social creatures, and thriving in the world requires us to take hold of those who have extended themselves to us. That is what it means to make the choice to speak to a counselor. It is the acceptance of an invitation to walk together, with someone, through a season of life. It is one of the most human things we can do.
I greatly anticipate walking alongside you, as you take the first steps to address and overcome the obstacles in your path.

William has been awesome!! He helps me talk through a lot of my own confusion and I also don’t ever feel like it’s a one way conversation. 10/10 would recommend!

William is a fantastic therapist and a great person in general. I like his logical and scientific approach to the human brain and why we think the way we do. He also has a unique ability to add in scripture and faith in a way that makes sense to me. I feel truly blessed to have been matched with William and look forward to continuing our conversations.

William has been one of the biggest blessings to my life at a point where I felt lost and hopeless. His wisdom is amazing. He cares and he knows exactly how to help you help yourself. I really appreciate him.

William is spectacular! He is very present in sessions and in chats and is intentional with communicating in ways that work for you. William gets to know you as a person and what drives you, to create a baseline and build from there!
