About Amy

Amy Creason is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Missouri who draws on a decade of clinical experience to support people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, ADHD, depression, grief, and related concerns.

Background and approach

She trained with a Master of Science in Counseling Psychology and completed a post-master’s veteran behavioral health certificate, and she combines structured skills work with a collaborative, person-centered stance. Amy emphasizes partnership and unconditional positive regard while helping clients set goals and learn practical coping strategies.

Her practice weaves cognitive-behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior tools, motivational interviewing, and mindfulness practices to match each person’s needs. That flexible approach supports a range of challenges including relationship and family issues, trauma and abuse, intimacy concerns, parenting stresses, career transitions, and compassion fatigue.

Amy also addresses additional focus areas such as body image, caregiver stress, codependency, communication and control issues, and impulsivity. Sessions aim to balance skill-building for immediate challenges with opportunities for deeper self-discovery and ongoing growth.

Amy offers sessions in multiple online formats and frames therapy as a collaborative process that adapts over time to meet evolving goals and circumstances.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Client-centered therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental partnership where the therapist listens closely and supports each person’s own goals and self-discovery. This approach is useful for people who want a collaborative space to explore feelings and make meaningful changes.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and replacing them with more effective skills. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, ADHD-related challenges, and coping with life transitions because it offers concrete strategies for day-to-day functioning.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) brings practical skills for managing intense emotions, improving interpersonal effectiveness, and increasing distress tolerance. These techniques can be helpful when impulsivity, anger, or relationship conflicts interfere with daily life.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the therapeutic process; the therapist collaborates with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences and adjusts the plan as progress unfolds.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it possible to access consistent support without needing to travel, allowing therapy to fit around work, caregiving, or other commitments while maintaining continuity of care.
