I believe everyone deserves a safe place to process life's challenges and discover hope. As a therapist, I strive to create a warm, supportive environment where clients feel understood and empowered. I specialize in relationships, attachment, anxiety, life transitions, and family dynamics. My approach combines evidence-based practices with genuine care, helping clients build healthier relationships with themselves and others. As a wife, mom, and pastor, I understand the complexities of balancing life's many roles and responsibilities, and I consider it a privilege to walk alongside people as they pursue healing and growth.

Lourdes Ibarra

Therapist

Virtual • St. Louis, MO


I help individuals navigate trauma, anxiety, depression, and overwhelming life stressors. I help people who look fine on the outside yet feel misunderstood and alone with battles no one sees. They wonder if their “normal” really hides trauma and sense that burying feelings can only last so long. In therapy, we give those hidden struggles a voice, make sense of the chaos, and build skills that help them take back control. Some of the most common concerns voiced in therapy are, “I don’t feel listened to,” “I struggle to communicate my thoughts,” and “I’m about to give up.” These thoughts carry emotional pain rooted in past hurts. To cope, many have learned to disconnect from their feelings just to survive.

Dr. Charles Quinn

Therapist

Virtual • Waynesville, MO


Hi, my name is Dr. Charles Quinn. I am a retired military soldier, served 25 years, and have been in the field of counseling for over fifteen years. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, grief and loss, past traumatic experiences, conflict resolution, self-injury, bullying, and other issues. The modalities that I incorporate into my sessions are Cognitive-Behavioral, Dialectical Behavior, Solution-Focused, and Trust-Based Relational Intervention, among others. It is important to meet the client where they are and tailor a specific program that addresses their unique concerns and needs. I practice from a perspective of compassion, acceptance, and trust building. It is my mission to ensure my clients feel safe, not judged, and accepted as we begin to work together. I am committed to creating an environment that fosters truth without judgment, safety without fear, and hope in an otherwise hopeless situation.

Let's begin this journey together.

Therapist

I specialize in supporting women navigating complex experiences that often go misunderstood. This includes women who have experienced harm within spiritual or religious communities—whether that's spiritual abuse, religious trauma, or the complicated grief of leaving a faith tradition. I also work with women managing anxiety, depression, and interpersonal trauma.

If you've felt silenced, questioned your own reality, or struggled to trust yourself after difficult experiences, you're not alone. My practice is a place where your story matters, your feelings are valid, and healing is possible.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with experience in both inpatient psychiatric settings and outpatient therapy. I earned both my Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in Social Work from Missouri State University, where I developed a strong foundation in evidence-based, client-centered care.

My background includes working with individuals across a range of needs, from acute crisis stabilization to ongoing therapeutic support. I have extensive experience helping clients navigate depression, anxiety, ADHD, OCD, self-harm, anger, aggression, and oppositional defiant behaviors. I am also trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which I frequently use to help clients better understand the connection between their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors while building practical coping strategies.

I have been practicing for 17 years, primarily seeing adults and senior citizens. I operate from a person-centered, emotionally-focused basis. You are the expert on your life, and my goal is to help you with that. I utilize experiential and psychodramatic techniques.. These methods allow for role plays and visualizations. Such techniques increase your ability to get more deeply in touch with your issues and see situations clearly. When you reenact what happens at home, in the safety of the therapy office, solutions become clear and your voice becomes strong.
