Anxiety and depression therapists and psychiatrists in Saint Peters, MO

Congratulations on beginning this journey, you're exactly where you need to be. I'm Ada Petty, LPC, dedicated to helping individuals navigate life's challenges with compassion and understanding. I hold a Master's degree in Professional Counseling from Webster University and a Bachelor's degree in Sociology from Southern Illinois University Edwardsville. With over 8 years of experience, I specialize in supporting clients with anxiety, depression, trauma, and adjustment related challenges.

My name is Chana. I'm a licensed professional counselor in practice since 2012. I obtained my degree from UMSL and subsequently earned certificates in trauma/PTSD and in couples counseling/intimate relationship skills. I have experience working with couples and families as well as adolescents and adults struggling with depression, trauma, anxiety grief and other life challenges.

With a career spanning nearly two decades in child welfare and clinical social work, Laura provides a specialized safe place for youth (ages 3–26) navigating life’s most difficult experiences. Her practice focuses on building inner coping and resilience by enhancing bodily awareness and active curiosity, ensuring that healing isn’t just a cognitive process, but a physical one.

Specialized Clinical Focus:

Childhood Trauma: Expert in childhood sexual abuse, abuse and neglect, grief, bullying, complex medical diagnosis/complications, and all the BAD, SAD, and SCARY things in-between.

Specialized Sexual Behavior Work: Extensive experience facilitating therapy for children and adolescents with inappropriate and illegal sexual behaviors.

Systemic Support: Navigating foster care, adoption, divorce, family and/or sibling dynamics, behavioral struggles, and school avoidance.

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.

I’m Debra Wren, a Licensed Professional Counselor with over a decade of experience helping adults navigate life’s challenges. I earned my Master’s degree in Counseling from Webster University, my Bachelor's in Interdisciplinary Studies from Arkansas State University and I am licensed in Missouri and Georgia.

I believe some of our greatest growth comes through the experiences we never expected. As a wife, mother, and woman who has navigated my own seasons of change, I understand what it means to keep showing up for others while sometimes losing sight of yourself. That perspective allows me to bring compassion, authenticity, and real-life understanding into my work.

I help adults with anxiety, depression, relationship and family stress, life transitions, self-worth, and unhealthy patterns. I also help couples (private pay only) with communication, conflict, emotional disconnection, betrayal, attachment concerns, and blended-family challenges.

I provide in-person and virtual counseling in Missouri and virtual counseling throughout Georgia.

As a therapist, I have a deep passion for supporting others through their journey towards general wellbeing. I place strong emphasis on total holistic wellness as well as creating a safe, inclusive and nonjudgemental space as we work together to help you overcome roadblocks and achieve your goals.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Missouri-St Louis. I have 27 years of clinical experience providing therapy to children, adolescents, adults, and families across a range of mental health concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma, behavioral challenges, and relationship issues.
