More about Patty
- 26 years' experience

- LPC
As a licensed therapist in Missouri, I bring over two decades of compassionate clinical experience supporting individuals through life's complex challenges. My approach is deeply rooted in understanding the nuanced emotional landscapes of human experience, with specialized expertise in addressing depression, anxiety, trauma, and interpersonal dynamics.
I am dedicated to creating a supportive, non-judgmental therapeutic environment where clients can explore their inner worlds, develop resilience, and cultivate meaningful personal growth. My practice centers on empowering individuals across diverse backgrounds—from young adults navigating early life transitions to those experiencing midlife challenges.
My therapeutic work spans a wide range of focus areas, including relationship difficulties, self-esteem, social anxiety, workplace stress, and healing from past emotional wounds. I am committed to meeting each client exactly where they are, offering personalized guidance that honors their unique journey and inherent strengths.
Through evidence-based practices and a trauma-informed lens, I support clients in developing healthier coping strategies, improving communication, and rediscovering their sense of purpose and connection.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
