I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with extensive experience helping adults navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship difficulties, life transitions, and concerns related to alcohol use. I especially enjoy working with clients who may appear capable and successful on the outside but feel overwhelmed, stuck, anxious, or disconnected from themselves.
My style is warm, conversational, nonjudgmental, and straightforward. I believe therapy works best when you feel comfortable being yourself rather than feeling like you have to say the “right” thing in session. My goal is to understand both what you are struggling with and who you are as a person so that therapy feels relevant to your life.
Hi, I'm Joanie! If you're feeling weighed down by trauma, anxiety, or painful life experiences, you don't have to navigate them alone. Trauma can leave you feeling stuck in the past, constantly on edge, or wondering why certain emotions and reactions seem so difficult to control. My approach is warm, compassionate, and nonjudgmental. I work with adults to better understand how past experiences continue to shape their lives today while helping them build the insight, confidence, and tools needed to move forward in a way that feels authentic and empowering.
I believe in meeting my clients where they're at. They are the expert in their own story. I'm just here to listen, help process, maybe challenge, and encourage them in their journey. I went to Newman University for my Master's Degree and went on to get my Clinical License. I have worked with varying populations including teens, adults, geriatrics, the prison population, couples counseling, and Christian Counseling. I enjoy working with people who have been through trauma or grief or have experienced anxiety or depression.
I received my undergraduate degree in Psychology and graduate degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Missouri- St. Louis. I'm a licensed clinical therapist in Missouri and have spent the past 4 years working on an acute behavioral health unit seeing a wide range of patients with diverse backgrounds and symptomatic presentations. I have received certifications in trauma studies and believe in the psyche’s natural ability to heal and adapt.
I want to make sure I'm a good fit for what my client is looking for and that we're going to be able to work well together. I prioritize comfort in a first session.
As an LPC and Board Certified Art Therapist, I practice with a trauma informed, strengths based perspective while including modalities such as Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Expressive Arts Therapy. The inclusion of art into our sessions allows for a deeper understanding of skills and self.
I understand that finding the right psychiatric provider can feel overwhelming, and I believe you shouldn’t have to navigate your mental health journey alone. I provide compassionate, patient-centered care in a supportive and judgment-free environment. I take the time to listen to your concerns, understand your unique experiences, and work collaboratively with you to create a treatment plan that aligns with your individual needs and goals.
Hi, I'm Dr. Haley Fox (she/her/hers), an integrally-informed artist/psychotherapist with a PhD in Clinical Psychology, board-certifications in art therapy (ATR-BCCS) and music therapy (MT-BC), and certification as a psychedelic-assisted therapy provider.
My name is Teerah, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker specializing in trauma work with adolescents, teens, and young adults. I have worked with clients of all ages and believe therapy should feel like a safe space where you can finally stop filtering yourself. I’m very down to earth, easy to talk to, and genuinely believe nothing is “too much” to bring into session. Whether you are dealing with trauma, anxiety, relationship stress, or just feeling emotionally stuck, my goal is to help you feel supported, understood, and a little less alone in it all.
I believe you've been gathering crucial information throughout your life that's needed to feel peace from painful past experiences and to create a fulfilling present life. The ability to access and apply that information is where I can help. Searching for the right therapist can be hard, but the search itself says that you're using your knowledge to take charge of finding the support you need. That's empowerment. Searching also means you believe in the possibility of making changes in your life. I call that hope. Empowerment and hope are all you need to start finding a new way of being.
I have over 20 years of counseling experience. I enjoy meeting people where they are to assist with life's ups and downs. I specialize in trauma, anxiety, depression, and couples.
Hi! I'm Melissa and excited to work with you! I love working with women who are in mid life and navigating all that comes our way. From Perimenopause/menopause, chronic health concerns, and relationships, I'm hear to support you.

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.
