Emily Crawford-Thompson Ph.D.
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
I recognize the courage that seeking help requires, and I am honored be a part of your healing journey. To me, this is much more than a job or even a career. This is my life’s calling. I specialize in helping people recover from various traumas and effects of trauma including Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). I also specialize in helping neurodivergent individuals, including diagnosis and treatment of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). I enjoy respectful collaboration to encourage you to discover and build on your inner resources and strengths. I incorporate evidence-based approaches including Psychological Evaluations, Interpersonal Therapy, and Cognitive Processing Therapy for PTSD. Every person has a unique and important purpose, and I look forward to helping you discover yours. I am a genuine and compassionate person who can also be direct with you if you need a little challenge; yet, my style is gentle enough that you may not even realize you are being challenged! People tend to open up and feel at ease with me, and benefit from improved insight and perspective with my questions which guide you to better understand yourself, your life direction, values, strengths, and purpose.

Jessica Oliver, Aspire Counseling
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LCSW
I specialize in helping people who are tired of just "managing" their anxiety or trauma symptoms and are ready for real, lasting change. Many of my clients are high-functioning professionals, working parents, and teens who look like they have it together on the outside but feel overwhelmed, stuck, or exhausted on the inside.I use evidence-based approaches—including EMDR, CBT, and ACT—because I believe you deserve treatment that actually works, not endless sessions of "how was your week?" My style is warm and direct. I'll meet you with compassion and help you build practical skills, but I'll also gently push you toward the growth you're looking for.If you're in Missouri and ready to stop white-knuckling your way through life, I'd love to talk.

Johanna Wood, Leap Counseling and Consultation
Psychologist, PhD, LP
I specialize in exposure-based therapies for OCD and anxiety disorders. My clients typically have tried therapy before, but have not seen much improvement. They continue living in fear, anxiety, and guilt, as their lives continue getting smaller and smaller. This is because OCD and most anxiety disorders require specialized treatment. Coping skills are great, but they can only get you so far. The good news is, there are science-backed treatments for OCD and for anxiety that actually work. If you're ready to stop coping and start living, take a leap of faith and reach out.
My style is structured and balances use of the latest science with compassion and understanding. My goal is to make you feel heard, and feel challenged. I serve adults with primary issues of OCD and anxiety, and I also address co-occurring depression, insomnia, body-focused repetitive behaviors, and trauma, using cognitive-behavioral therapies. I address all forms of OCD and anxiety, but I have a special interest in scrupulosity (religious- and moral-based) OCD. I love helping people stop letting their OCD hijack their sources of meaning and get back to having faith in faith again.
