Hi, I’m Megan. I’m a licensed mental health therapist with over 15 years of experience in the mental health field, including the past decade providing therapy to adults who are ready for meaningful change. I hold a Master’s degree in Counseling.
I help high‐achieving teens and women feel lighter—less guilt, less overthinking, better sleep, and more ease in relationships. Together, we’ll build boundaries, confidence, and a calmer mind so you can actually enjoy your life instead of worrying your way through it.
I believe therapy works best when it is grounded, compassionate, and practical. Many of the adults and couples I work with are high-achieving on the outside, but internally struggling with burnout, life transitions, or feeling disconnected in their relationships. My goal is to provide a non-judgmental, collaborative space where you feel truly heard and supported.
Professional Background & Education I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Missouri with extensive experience supporting individuals and couples through complex life challenges. In addition to my clinical licensure, I am currently completing my Doctorate in Education (Ed.D.) in Traumatology, with an expected graduation in 2028. My advanced doctoral training deeply informs my approach, allowing me to bring evidence-based, highly practical strategies into our work together.
Who I Serve & Specialty Areas I work exclusively with adults and couples (ages 18+), offering both flexible telehealth sessions across Missouri and in-person appointments in Moberly. My core areas of focus include:
- Adult Neurodivergence: Supporting adults navigating late-diagnosed Autism, ADHD, high-masking burnout, and executive dysfunction.
- Life & Relationship Transitions: Helping individuals and partners navigate divorce recovery, separation, co-parenting challenges, and blended family dynamics.
- Healing & Recovery: Providing trauma-informed care, support for individuals in recovery culture, and faith-informed Christian counseling.
Whether you are looking to unmask and understand your brain, rebuild connection in your relationship, or navigate a difficult major transition, I look forward to walking alongside you.
I specialize in helping adults who live with trauma, anxiety, depression, and OCD. I draw from ACT, EMDR, embodiment practices, and parts work, and I am neurodivergent‐friendly and LGBTQIA+ affirming. I also have experience supporting clients through psychosis, grief, chronic health issues, spiritual trauma, eating disorders, and substance use disorders.
At the core of my work is a belief that every person has the capacity to choose who they become. As Jean‐Paul Sartre wrote, “We are constantly creating ourselves through action.” I see therapy as a space where you can explore that creation with support, clarity, and intention.
I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor in the state of Kentucky and a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Missouri. I have over a decade of professional work experience in this field. I am a National Certified Counselor as well as a Certified Clinical Anxiety Treatment Professional. I have experience in helping clients with stress, anxiety, coping with addictions, motivation, self esteem, confidence, past trauma, and depression.
My name is Alicia Smith, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Kansas and Missouri.
I specialize in working with youth & young adults who are navigating trauma, chronic stress, and difficult life transitions. Many of the people I work with feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or unsure how to move forward, and my goal is to offer a space where they can feel supported, understood, and empowered
I work with individuals aged 15 and older who are facing anxiety, depression, low-self-esteem, and many other difficulties. The individuals I see are experiencing these challenges as a result of the negative impacts of current or past relationships, or situations that cause repeated exposure to other people's trauma.
Hello! I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a graduate of the University of Saint Mary. I provide a supportive, compassionate, and nonjudgmental space where adults can feel comfortable exploring what they’re experiencing and working toward interpersonal growth and positive changes they want to see in their life. I assist my clients in prioritizing their current needs, identifying and processing their life stressors, and further developing coping skills so they can better navigate anxiety, depression, identity and self worth struggles, and anything else life might throw a them. I also have significant experience in supporting those with severe and persistent mental illness.
