Therapists in Hillsboro, MO

I believe people are more than their diagnosis. Yes, a diagnosis is a tool but it is not the big picture. I come from a place of curiosity and wonder, wanting to know my clients on a deeper level so that I can help them navigate this world. For example, PTSD is a big diagnosis that is thrown around; yet, it doesn't paint the full picture. It doesn't reflect someone's experiences, triggers, how this is impacting their relationships, family history, the strengths they possess etc. Adolescents are my passion however, I also enjoy and work closely with families and adults.

Are you struggling with a relationship or relationships in your life, or maybe even struggling with the relationship with yourself? Do you feel disconnected, scared, and unsure of where to begin? Relationships are hard AND they are what make us human. I am passionate about helping my clients, whether they are individuals, families, or romantic partners, improve communication, increase connection, and overcome painful experiences that are preventing them from having and maintaining healthy relationships.

Hi there, I am here to help you. I work with individuals, couples, and families with struggles ranging from current life issues, relationship struggles, and issues that have been a lifelong battle. Clients often come to me because they have hit the lowest point and have never felt more alone, even after trying therapy countless times before. Many clients have left counseling finding resolution and a drive to live their life to the fullest. My clients have expressed finding healing, feeling equipped to manage life, and having healthier relationships and connections with others that they previously thought weren't possible.

Give yourself permission to heal. See the evidence of your work in the enriched connections you create with yourself and the important people in your life. There’s no one right way to heal or care for the self, but there are strategies and approaches that can offer you a stroke of confidence and peace of mind. I approach self-care with a realization that it’s multi-faceted and unique to each of us. I realize that what works well for you may not work well for everyone else.

My philosophy of counseling is to let others know they are not alone. Clients will always have someone to talk to about anything troublesome. I believe all people need someone to be there for them, to comfort them and give them tools to self-sooth and learn to succeed to the best of their ability. Through unconditional positive regard, creating a safe space which is nonjudgmental and confidential, and by using active listening and other techniques clients can continue to learn to improve themselves and their environment.

Hello! I'm Andrea and I am pleased to offer in-person or on-line support at Center for Mindfulness and CBT and have immediate openings. I strive to provide a safe and supportive environment as a foundation to walk alongside and guide people coping with various life challenges. My specialty areas are: grief, anxiety, trauma, as well as other life stressors and issues. I believe in the power of the therapeutic alliance. It is believed when people feel truly supported that is when they can best find their own path to growth and healing. My strongest values as a therapist to my clients are to embody warmth, respect, and reliability.

Do you ever feel like your emotions and logic just don't line up together? Does it feel like you're stuck in a neverending cycle and the autopilot that once worked just isn't working anymore? Want to move forward in your life but feel like it’s a constant battle? I want to be there to help you through that struggle so that you can find the path leading to your goals while gaining a sense of self-awareness, fulfillment, and happiness that you deserve. I believe that people are their own personal experts in their lives, but sometimes we need help unlocking that expert due to times of becoming overwhelmed and shut down in the past.

Taking the steps to find a therapist is a courageous leap in your journey. I take pride in helping clients process difficult emotions and create a secure sense of self. Your issue, need, or goal will be unique, but I strive to provide a safe space to assist you in this difficult process.

I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, SUD’s, career challenges, OCD and ADHD. I also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse. My counseling style is warm and empathic. I believe in treating everyone with respect & sensitivity.

How amazing would it feel to be totally accepted and unconditionally supported, where YOUR needs are the priority? You're likely here searching for someone who will truly understand you, who knows how to help you with whatever is hurting right now. Does your past make today harder? Are you feeling frustrated and disconnected within your relationships? Do you wake up every day feeling discouraged or stuck? Or struggle to fall asleep because your brain can't stop worrying? We're a group of knowledgeable, compassionate clinicians who are invested in figuring this all out WITH you. Let us help you. We can tackle these things together.

Life is challenging. So many ebbs and flows. I recognize that and would love to help you on your journey. We can all use a little support from time to time. Relationships can be difficult to manage. Setting (and keeping) boundaries at home, at work, or within relationships is hard work. If you or your child are looking for support with issues such as anxiety, depression, bullying, domestic violence, abuse or trauma, I'd love to help. I use creative therapy techniques in-person and via tele-health to support you or your child.

Whatever it might be that brought you here, whatever you’re going through it deserves a safe space and healing. My goal within private practice is to create a safe and judgement free space to help you grow within. Through a collaborative approach I will guide you through major life changes and struggles. I have extensive experience in working with adolescents, children, and adults. I most enjoy working with high conflict familial relationships, anxiety, life transitions, and self-love.
