Recovery is possible with the right support.

Working with clients, I want to have a collaborative relationship where they can feel heard, independent, empowered and become their own agent of change and growth. I want clients to feel safe, confidential, objective and challenged. I have worked in a variety of settings creating vast opportunities. I view myself as a lifelong learner and want to have that outlook to support, encourage and challenge others to strive for their own progress.
I am Stephen O’Neill, LSCSW, MBA, a licensed clinical social worker with over two decades of experience in behavioral and mental health. I specialize in evidence-based approaches to help clients navigate life’s challenges, improve relationships, and achieve personal growth. I am passionate about whole-person care, integrating mental health, well-being, and practical solutions tailored to each client’s needs. I believe in fostering a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where clients can explore their concerns and develop meaningful change. I will see you, I will hear you, and I will walk alongside you. My approach is grounded in collaboration, empowerment, and respect for each person’s unique journey. In my free time, I enjoy hiking, biking, canoeing, playing video games, tabletop gaming, and cars.
As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I specialize in working with teens and adults who are navigating challenges such as stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship difficulties. I am passionate about helping clients recognize their strengths, overcome obstacles, and develop a stronger sense of identity.
As a lifelong Missouri resident and educator, I am very familiar with the specifics that come with living in this area.
