Therapists in Richmond Heights, MO

20 years experience working alongside people as they strengthen their inner knowledge and outward interactions. Therapy can bridge the gap between where you are and where you want to be. I think a lot about the brain and and how we unconsciously replicate patterns. The work I do uses current brain based therapy approaches to help integrate outdated patterns into newer more helpful ones.

Are you tired of anxiety getting in the way of living your life to fullest? Anxiety can feel debilitating in the enjoyment of our relationships and life in general. While anxiety is a fact of life, it doesn't have to dominate your life. I use Acceptance & Commitment Therapy, an evidenced based treatment for anxiety, to help you find new ways of managing anxiety so that you can live the life you want. Tired of finding yourself in dead end relationships? Maybe you've sworn off dating a certain "type" of person, but you seem to repeat the same relationship patterns.

Are you feeling stuck, alone, and overwhelmed? Looking for a safe space to share about your struggles and receive support? I would love to work with you towards your goals and towards building a life worth living. I greatly value creating a caring, collaborative, and non-judgmental space for individuals and families. I specialize in helping clients with depression, anxiety, trauma, grief/loss, out-of-control feelings, and relationship difficulties, including challenges in parenting. I love working with older children (9+), adolescents and adults.

Hi! I'm Sarah, a therapist serving clients with attachment and developmental struggles, eating disorders/disordered eating, trauma/PTSD, personality disorders, and mood disorders. I believe (and research shows) that a strong, safe therapeutic relationship is the most important factor in healing. My goal is for you to feel heard, seen, and understood as I walk alongside you in your healing process. No matter your story or lived experience, we will work together to create a safe and supportive space to help you feel empowered and to help you connect authentically with yourself and with others.

We all have our own inherent sense of wisdom and creativity. For many of us, and for many reasons, we lose touch with this internal sense, often leaving us feeling lost, confused, and disconnected or in conflict with ourselves and others. We find ways to help us survive, but my goal is to help you reconnect with this sense, and find ways to move out of just surviving and into more adaptive and authentic ways of connecting.

Hi there! I’m Karen, and I’m a licensed clinical social worker who helps people learn to live more meaningful lives. I work with adults and young adults who want to find joy, purpose, and ease in their lives, but struggle to make this a reality. Instead, they find themselves feeling trapped by painful thoughts, emotions, habits, past experiences, or current circumstances—including political and cultural factors that impact mental health.

Examining and shifting age-old patterns can be an overwhelming endeavor to take on alone. My role is to offer you a compassionate, authentic, and non-judgmental space as you embark on that journey. I support folks to cultivate joy, ease, and meaning in their lives, even when doing so feels impossible. This might include strengthening executive functioning skills, exploring gender or sexual identity, or learning self-validation in an often invalidating world. Together, we'll identify effective ways to move through life's most difficult moments - the past can't be changed, but we can transform how it influences our present and future.
