services
At The Path to Conscious Healing LLC, we provide individual counseling and psychedelic integration therapy to adults 18 and older (details below).
We offer both in-person and virtual appointments. In-person sessions are held at our office in Kirkwood, MO. Virtual services are available to clients located anywhere in Missouri, and some therapists can provide telehealth services in most U.S. states.
Before beginning therapy, a brief phone consultation is held to discuss your needs and determine whether our practice is a good fit. Services begin with an intake appointment that includes review of practice policies, a clinical interview, and collaborative treatment planning. Ongoing therapy sessions are typically 50 minutes in length. Weekly sessions are often recommended initially to support relationship-building and therapeutic progress. However, appointment frequency and length of treatment are individualized based on each client's needs and goals.
NOTE: Therapy services are provided on an outpatient basis by appointment only and are not appropriate for individuals experiencing an immediate mental health crisis (ex. active suicidal or homicidal thoughts, current psychotic or manic symptoms). Individuals in crisis should seek emergency services, inpatient hospitalization, or a higher level of care, such as intensive outpatient services.
*All services are provided in accordance with applicable professional ethical standards and state licensing laws. The information on this website is intended to reflect these standards but should not be considered exhaustive.
individual counseling
Individual therapy is supportive, collaborative, and tailored to each client's unique needs, goals, and preferences. While each clinician brings their own expertise and therapeutic style, all services are grounded in evidence-based practice and delivered through a trauma-informed, culturally responsive, and compassionate lens. We strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental environment that fosters openness, trust, connection, self-awareness, acceptance, and meaningful growth.
Therapeutic approaches include:
- Client-centered/humanistic therapy
- Cognitive Behavioral techniques
- Mindfulness-based practices (ex. present awareness, breathing, relaxation)
- Trauma-focused interventions
- Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) interventions
- Parts/IFS-informed work
- Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
- Experiential-based practices
- Motivational Interviewing
- Solution-focused interventions
