Our therapists offer PTSD & trauma therapy in St Louis, MO

Hello, I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW). I work with clients struggling with trauma, PTSD, depression, anxiety, and sexual or domestic violence. Many of my clients struggle with low self-worth, guilt and shame, always putting others before their needs, and feeling unheard and undervalued.

I use a person-centered, trauma-informed approach, providing a collaborative, warm, nonjudgmental space. I believe the relationship between therapist and client is the most powerful tool for change. Alongside this approach, I use cognitive behavioral therapy and EMDR.

It can be difficult to take that first step and reach out, but each step can bring you closer to reaching your goals and becoming your best self. I feel honored to be part of your healing journey.

Hi! My name is Keana and I have worked in the mental health field since 2012. I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Missouri, and I have a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from Tennessee State University and a Master of Science from Lipscomb University in Nashville, TN. I have devoted the past 11 years of my career to working almost exclusively with survivors of domestic violence, intimate partner violence, sexual violence, and PTSD, and I have experience working in community mental health, both outpatient and IOP.

I support my clients by providing them with a physically and emotionally safe space to exist and unpack their story. In early treatment sessions, I focus my attention on getting to know them as a person, followed by working to better understand the challenges they're experiencing in their day-to-day lives.

Overall, my goal is to create a space where you feel safe, heard, and supported as you work through your story. If it sounds like my approach would be a good fit for you, schedule a session with me. I look forward to meeting you!

I am Michelle Jones, LCSW, a licensed clinical social worker with over 20 years of experience in behavioral health. I hold Missouri licensure and have worked across outpatient mental health, inpatient psychiatry, substance abuse treatment, corrections, and hospice care. I work with individuals, couples, and groups navigating bipolar disorder, major depressive disorder, ADHD, anxiety disorders, PTSD, substance abuse, and behavior modification.

I use evidence-based approaches including CBT, DBT, and ACT to meet each client where they are. My style is collaborative and strength-based, helping clients identify patterns, build coping skills, and develop lasting tools for change in a structured, supportive space.

Wherever you are in your journey, you deserve support from someone who truly sees you. Healing isn't linear, but you don't have to walk the path alone.
