If you keep finding yourself in the same arguments, the same shutdowns, or the same loop of feeling more reactive than you want to be, you are not broken. There is often a younger version of you driving the bus in those moments. I work with teens, adults, and women navigating relationship strain, family of origin patterns, anxiety, and grief, including the kind that does not involve a death. Clients describe me as warm, steady, and easy to talk to, and they often say I notice what they did not realize they were sharing.
My clients seek to understand and accept themselves and their life experiences. Together we will explore how your past is impacting your present, so you can ultimately move toward a better future.
I work with individuals, couples and families from an attachment and systems perspective, knowing we experience many wounds through relationships but through the right relationships we can also experience healing.
It is important in my work that I allow the client's cultural context inform my treatment.
As an independently licensed professional counselor, counselor educator, and supervisor, I believe that everyone deserves a space where they can feel heard, supported, and accepted. I've been practicing for 15 years and hold a master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, a doctorate in Counselor Education, and a Fellowship in Thanatology with specialized expertise in grief and loss. As a member of the LGBTQIA+ community and someone with AuDHD, I bring both professional knowledge and lived experience to my work. My goal is to create a warm, affirming environment where you can show up as your authentic self and move toward meaningful change.
I am a therapist that is focused on helping people with sex and sexuality issues. I am currently a member of AASECT (American Association of Sex Educators, Counselors , and Therapists. I am open minded, solution-oriented, and compassionate towards clients.
Sometimes life changes in ways you never expected. Whether you're navigating anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, the transition into parenthood, or the emotional demands of caring for others, it's easy to lose sight of yourself while trying to keep everything together. You don't have to face those challenges alone. For more than 20 years, I've partnered with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, grief and loss, women's issues, and trauma, helping them build resilience, strengthen relationships, and rediscover hope during life's most difficult seasons. Working with children, adolescents, and adults, I strive to create a compassionate, supportive space where you feel genuinely heard, respected, and empowered to move toward lasting healing.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Certified Alcohol and Other Drug Abuse Counselor with 40 years of clinical experience. I work with adults, children, and adolescents, and I value each person’s cultural background, identity, and lived experience.
Hi, I’m Marilynn Minich, LCSW. I’m a licensed clinical social worker with an MSW and experience supporting individuals through anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship concerns, grief, life transitions, and other challenging experiences. My professional background has given me the opportunity to work with people navigating complex emotional and life circumstances, and I bring that experience into my practice with warmth, compassion, and genuine curiosity.
I believe therapy should be a space where you feel safe enough to be honest, understood without judgment, and supported in making meaningful changes. I especially enjoy helping clients better understand themselves, their relationships, and the patterns that may have developed from past experiences.
Some things stay buried for years before you are finally ready to look at them. I work with adolescents, adults, and older adults carrying trauma, grief, family conflict, and depression. Some of my clients come to me in the middle of a crisis. Others come because something from the past is quietly running their present. In either case, you deserve a space that is honest and supportive while you do the hard work of becoming more like the version of yourself you want to be.
My therapy space is warm, inviting, and open which mirrors what you will experience working with me. My approach comes from a curious and compassion space to effectively help make change happen. I am a clinically licensed marriage and family therapist. I have over 5 years experience working with individuals, couples, and families.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Saint Peters
Searching for therapists in Saint Peters starts with finding someone whose training fits what you want care for. People often look for therapy for anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, relationship concerns, grief, life transitions, or support after major changes at home or work. As you compare therapists, look for specialties and approaches that match your needs, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma-informed therapy, or couples counseling. A therapist’s profile can also show how they structure sessions and what you can expect from their style of care.
In a smaller city like Saint Peters, the local pool of therapists may be more focused than in nearby larger markets. Virtual appointments can expand your options while still letting you work with a therapist licensed in Missouri. Some people prefer an office visit, while others choose virtual care for evening availability, Saturday appointments, or less travel time. Before booking, check whether a therapist is accepting new patients, offers a schedule that fits your calendar, and provides a free phone consultation so you can get a clearer sense of fit.
Therapy in Saint Peters can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower your session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you search for therapists who take insurance, review detailed bios, verify your benefits, and see an estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. You can browse therapists in Saint Peters, compare availability and specialties, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
