Depression Therapists in Chesterfield, MO

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor who welcomes individuals from all walks of life. Are you feeling down, stuck, overwhelmed, discouraged, hopeless? Are you experiencing difficulties with relationships, work/school or life in general? I would love for us to work together and collaborate a healthy plan of approach.

I believe we all have the power within ourselves to heal. However, sometimes we get so caught up in the struggle, we lose track of our strengths. Therapy can help you recognize patterns that aren't working for you and reconnect to those strengths, leading to awareness and self-acceptance. I will guide you along that journey, encouraging you to be who you truly are in an empathetic and supportive environment. My office is a judgement-free zone, where you can express yourself honestly in a compassionate setting.

Have you noticed your child or teen worrying a lot more lately? Have they been more down and withdrawn, losing interest in things they once loved?

Do you want someone to listen objectively to your problems and give you honest, helpful feedback? Are you struggling with relationship conflicts or loss, including the break up of an intimate relationship, a personal illness or death of a loved one? Do you need guidance with parenting, job stress, career changes, anxiety or depression ? I understand life's challenges. I can help you to break down your problems into manageable tasks and give you the skills to look at issues differently. I can provide you with short term solution focused therapy or long term supportive counseling, based on your needs.

As a therapist, I have a warm and compassionate approach to help guide you through the therapy process. I work collaboratively with clients to understand their life circumstances and help them overcome obstacles to their problems. I have an innate ability to tune into the nuances of my clients that I continue to refine through years in practice. This helps clients feel more understood and compassionate towards themselves and their feelings. When one is compassionately present with their feelings they start to have clarity as they access their core inner wisdom. This clarity and wisdom helps them to successfully identify what works best for them.

Sharon Moehle provides conventional counseling services and she offers additional therapies such as Biofeedback (several Biofeedback services are offered including Neurotherapy/EEG Biofeedback) and EMDR. Some clients request these newer counseling techniques because they can shorten treatment time. Traditional therapy successfully resolves many issues, yet in cases such as: -issues not responding well to talk therapy alone -clients not responding well to medication -individuals preferring to be medication free...then Sharon provides additional therapies to better address client concerns and better meet individual needs. Sharon has been providing Biofeedback services for 18 years and has been practicing EMDR for 13 years.
