Therapists in Scott City, MO

My counseling style is warm, interactive, and empathetic. I believe everyone should be treated with empathy, genuineness, respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I believe in meeting people where they are in their journey. We will work together as a team to tailor sessions to meet your needs. My experience ranges from working with anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, PTSD, domestic violence, narcissistic abuse, and women’s issues. Domestic violence, women’s issues, and trauma are my specialties. Populations I specialize with are First Responders, Active-Duty Military, Reserves, Military Spouses,

We are a diverse group of licensed professionals. We are compassionate, knowledgable and honored to work with individuals, couples, and families. We support our clients to discover their own personal grace and agility, their ability to express themselves with integrity and conviction and most importantly to restore their faith in themselves and in their relationships.

I have been in practice for 20 years. I do not "fit" my clients into a particular therapy. I use what treatment helps each of my clients. The therapy sessions belong to my clients, not to me. My clients know themselves better than I or anyone else wil know them. My "job" is to help my clients learn to help themselves and apply what they have gained in therapy to the rest of their lives.

Are you an outsider? Outsiders are those who may think, feel, look, and operate different from mainstream society. They often feel misunderstood and marginalized for their uniqueness. Outsiders feel a deep sense of connection to the natural world and understand that they are not separate but rather part of nature. Finding support and connection as an outsider can be challenging in a world that constantly demands conformity. Outsiders often identify as... ​LGBTQIA+, multicultural, women, child-free, artists, entrepreneurs, non-monogamous, high achievers, travelers, outdoorsy, introverts, mytstics, highly sensitive (HSP) etc.
