Therapists in Springfield, MO

My approach to therapy is rooted in the belief of impermanence, human suffering, and the power of hope. I believe that everyone needs support and someone to talk to. I am kind, calm, and insightful. I will be interactive in every therapy session. We will get to the root of your problems! I promise to help bring clarity and understanding to your situation or mental health issues. Progress can be made in a limited number of sessions. Together, we will develop new coping skills and ultimately improve your quality of life.

As a licensed psychologist, I provide adult individual and couples therapy. I specialize in treating people who may need to change unhealthy patterns in their life, improve their relationships, explore life events that are affecting well-being, discover past issues that may be causing difficulty, and many other issues. Although I work with clients who have many different types of problems, I am also an AASECT-certified sex therapist and work with sexual health concerns. I welcome LGBT clients.

Therapy is where you can say the words that aren't allowed to be said. While I see clients who are struggling with a variety of issues (depression; anxiety; relationship difficulties; and questions of meaning, purpose, and self), I specialize in working with those who have experienced religious trauma - those who have been deeply hurt by the messages they received as part of their religious experience and have not felt the freedom to tell their story. Clergy and laity alike need space to express and reflect upon their hurt, their sadness, their anger, their disappointment, and their doubts.

Belief: life is comprised of a multitude of experiences each shaping who we are and how we engage in the world around us. We have the ability to re-evaluate and transform difficult or traumatic experiences into something new, creating a more whole self. This takes work, a desire to self-reflect, and at times, move toward change.

Most people do a good job weathering the storms of life but sometimes need a warm and safe heaven away from it all where they can sit down with someone, talk things through, and begin to understand the underlying sources of some of their difficulties in life. Sometimes people need only a little help to move on, and sometimes they need more time because they want to learn as much about themselves as they possibly can. I'm seeking clients who want objective, caring, non-judgmental help in learning more about themselves.

I am passionate about educating clients and helping them rebuild their relationships with their bodies and food. I am adept at getting to the root of problems and helping clients develop effective coping skills for different life situations, triggers, and traumas.

Hi! I'm Darla, and I am glad that we are going to embark on this journey together. It's important to feel connected to your therapist. I believe that sometimes we are all in need of additional support and assistance to navigate through difficult life situations that may seem overwhelming and debilitating. I am here to assist you and respectfully walk beside you while also honoring your autonomy. I participate in AAT- Animal Assisted Therapy. I have 4 bengal therapy cats that come in on rotation. They are great for regulating the nervous system.

I work with individuals with a wide range of concerns. My clinical specialties and interests include disordered eating, body image, obesity and weight loss, LGBTQ, gender identity, phase of life transitions, grief/loss, relationships, assertive communication, issues related to trauma/adverse life experiences, holistic health and wellness, self-compassion, and promoting self-awareness and insight. My background includes significant experience in the delivery of behavioral health care including individual psychotherapy and inpatient, intensive-outpatient, and outpatient groups. In addition to my experience with psychotherapy services, I also complete psychological assessments, provide supervision to pre-doctoral psychology interns, and consultation services.

There are several reasons why people feel stuck in their life story that prevent them from growing into the person they want to become... A past that continues to return to the present, patterns that are unbreakable alone, major life changes, uncontrollable circumstances, feelings of shame - the list goes on. I love working with clients looking to improve themselves, their relationships, and learn to face their struggles.

I invite you to come along and will commit to providing a place where you will be heard and supported unconditionally through this process.
