Hello! I am a LCSW specializing in therapy for ADHD & anxiety. I spent the first eight years of my career in diverse and challenging social work roles in a community mental health setting. I have been working as a therapist for the past five years, first as a general practitioner and later as an ADHD specialist within my own practice.

I care about real connection, steady progress, and creating a space where you can show up as yourself. I’ve spent years helping people sort through heavy thoughts, navigate big life changes, and rebuild a sense of direction. I won't rush you or force you into a mold, I help you understand what matters to you and take the steps to move towards it. I'm happy to be the calm, steady guide who will walk alongside you.
I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in the states of South Carolina and Missouri, as well as a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapy Supervisor, AAMFT approved. I have loved working with individuals, couples, and families over the past 15 years of practice!
If you're dealing with anxiety that won't let up, a life change that's left you off-balance, or relationship tension that keeps getting in the way — I can help. After 10 years as a school social worker in St. Louis, I know what it looks like when people are overwhelmed, and what it actually takes to move through it. Today I work with adults navigating similar territory: the pressure that builds quietly, the transitions that feel harder than expected, the moments in relationships that leave you stuck. My focus is on making therapy practical, grounded, and worth your time.
Hello, I’m Abby Pease, LCSW, QS! As a therapist, I strive to create a safe and welcoming space where clients feel truly seen and supported. I bring warmth, energy, and a touch of humor into my work, helping clients navigate challenges while also reminding them that healing doesn’t always have to be heavy. My goal is to walk alongside you with compassion and clarity as you move toward growth and resilience.
I’m a licensed therapist with a background in Marriage and Family Therapy. I work with individuals, couples and families who are navigating depression, anxiety, relationship challenges, or just feeling stuck. My approach is collaborative, supportive, and grounded in research—I’m here to help you make sense of what you’re going through and find a path forward. Whether you're facing a tough transition or looking to strengthen your emotional well-being, we’ll work together to create meaningful change.
I have 26 years of experience dealing with individuals, couples, families in therapy. We will work together to develop plans that are unique and right for you.
H, I'm Dr. Michelle Echols and I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Master's and Doctorate in Social Work from the University of Kentucky and more than a decade of experience helping people untangle some of life's most complicated moments — relationship struggles, family tension, substance use, and the rollercoaster that comes with being a teenager.
My sweet spots are teens, couples, and families. I genuinely love this work, and I especially love watching people who felt stuck start to move again.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Saint Peters, MO
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.
