Life has a way of being both breathtakingly beautiful and deeply challenging. Some days feel heavy, and it can seem like you’re just waiting for the hours to pass, only to face another day with the same weight. We all go through difficult times—but we don’t have to let them define us. The fact that you’re here, reading these words, shows that you’ve already taken a meaningful step toward caring for yourself. That matters. Life is undeniably hard, and caring for ourselves can feel just as demanding. Yet one of the quiet gifts of being human is that we sometimes get to choose which challenges we take on. I love coming alongside clients as they navigate stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, and more. Much of my work focuses on anxiety, self-esteem, self-growth, managing change, stress management, goals, coping skills, and women’s issues. I believe you are the expert of your own path, and that within you are many strengths that can help you move through the challenges you face. My role is to walk with you as you talk through those challenges and discover your way forward. My style is relaxed, and at times I may offer educational articles or gentle homework to support your growth. At this time, I work only with adults, and I bring additional training as a Certified Clinical Anxiety Treatment Professional (CCATP). So choose the path that carries hope. Choose the kind of hard that leads to healing, growth, and peace. You deserve care, and it’s always worth beginning with yourself.

I’m Chris, a licensed professional counselor who provides therapy for both individuals and couples seeking support, clarity, and healthier ways of navigating life’s challenges. I use an eclectic and integrative approach, drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy, trauma-informed practices, and the Gottman Method. This flexibility allows me to tailor therapy to each person or relationship, ensuring that the work we do together fits your goals, values, and pace. I specialize in helping clients with communication struggles, emotional disconnect, conflict patterns, anxiety, stress, and major life transitions. In individual work, I focus on understanding the thoughts, emotions, and behaviors that shape your daily experience and your sense of self. In couples work, I help partners identify the cycles that keep them stuck and replace them with more supportive, respectful, and compassionate interactions. My style is structured, straightforward, and supportive. I aim to create a balanced therapeutic environment where you feel both validated and challenged in ways that promote growth. I work collaboratively, helping you develop insight while building concrete tools for managing emotions, improving communication, and strengthening relationships. Clients often describe me as calm, grounded, and easy to talk to—someone who helps them make sense of complex situations without judgment. My goal is to help you or your relationship feel more stable, connected, and empowered. Whether you're coming to therapy to heal, grow, or change long-standing patterns, I’m here to guide you through the process with clarity and compassion.

Welcome! I'm Danielle. Take a moment to acknowledge you've taken the first step towards bettering your mental health because, let's be honest - starting therapy can be empowering, confusing, or scary, all at the same time. Try as we might, sometimes happiness and contentment always seem just out of reach. Depression, anxiety and stress can make getting out of bed in the morning a daunting task. Troubles in your relationship or conflict in the family can make you feel helpless or overwhelmed. Creating a daily routine using strategies that ground you and support moving forward in areas where you feel stuck. Improving your outlook on life to see past the stressful events that feel overwhelming. Talking through challenges and learning different ways to look at something in order to make progress, even when feeling depressed and anxious. As a therapist, it is my goal for clients to feel empowered and supported as we navigate through your journey to healing and wellness. I’m passionate about approaching therapy in a client centered way, and want each session to take you exactly where you need in that moment. My therapy approach is warm and accepting, focusing on establishing overall wellness. Therapy can seem daunting, we will go at a pace that is comfortable for you and discuss the topics you want. What are the tension points? Let's talk about those and develop a daily routine that grounds you and allows you to feel more in control of your life. I am here to listen and encourage you as you talk to support your healing and recovery.

Frequently asked questions

Why filter by Missouri rather than a city like Kansas City?

When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in the state. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across Missouri from Saint Louis to Springfield! If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near you in Missouri.

Will my therapist take insurance?

When booking you’ll be asked to verify with your Member ID. However, if you don’t have any of the insurances available you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary.

How does the Specialty Filter work? Can I find a therapist that focuses on a specific issue?

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need.

Why use Gender, Age, and Identities filters?

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

What to expect during your first session?

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs. Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center.Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
