Welcome! I am so happy you have taken the first step to healing. My name is Dzenana and I work with clients who struggle with anxiety, depression, life transitions, stress, grief/loss, emotion regulation, suicidal ideation, and trauma. My master's is from University of Missouri-Kansas City. I have worked as a school counselor for 11 years before opening my own private practice. My varied life experiences allow me to connect meaningfully with people to foster their growth. Whether you are struggling with deep past events or current daily life stress, I can work with you. If you are hesitant, give me just one hour. Let's get started!

I've spent my career helping people navigate life's challenges. I have been a therapist for over fourteen years. I've worked with clients from a wide range of backgrounds and age groups, and I genuinely enjoy my work. I know that life can be difficult, and there can be times when you feel alone, without anyone who understands you or the situation you are facing. That is why I became a therapist to help those who feel stuck and misunderstood. I will never make you feel like just a number. My approach is client-centered and solution-focused. I will work with you in helping you reach the goals that mean the most to you.
Hello! I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a graduate of the University of Saint Mary. I provide a supportive, compassionate, and nonjudgmental space where adults can feel comfortable exploring what they’re experiencing and working toward interpersonal growth and positive changes they want to see in their life. I assist my clients in prioritizing their current needs, identifying and processing their life stressors, and further developing coping skills so they can better navigate anxiety, depression, identity and self worth struggles, and anything else life might throw a them. I also have significant experience in supporting those with severe and persistent mental illness.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Missouri
Searching for therapists in Missouri is easier when you start with the type of support you want. Missouri has a wide range of therapists across urban and rural areas, so available specialties may vary by location. You might look for help with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, grief, or life transitions. As you compare Missouri therapists, review each therapist’s listed specialties, approach, and experience. Some therapists focus on cognitive behavioral therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or trauma-informed care, while others may specialize in couples counseling, family counseling, or support for specific life stages.
Practical fit matters, too. If you live in Kansas City, St. Louis, Springfield, Warrensburg, or a smaller Missouri community, consider whether in-person sessions or virtual appointments fit your schedule and location. You can also narrow your search by appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new clients, therapy style, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading a therapist’s bio before booking can help you understand how they structure sessions, how they describe their communication style, and whether their professional counseling experience matches what you’re looking for.
The cost of mental health care in Missouri can vary, and using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you find therapists and counselors who accept insurance, see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and choose from available in-person or virtual sessions. Nationally, Headway partners with 70+ insurance plans, and you can enter your insurance details to confirm coverage for your specific plan and location. From there, you can browse profiles, compare fit, and book directly when you’re ready.
If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
