Kristi Townsend, MA, LPC
Outpatient Therapist, Owner

Hi, I’m Kristi. I began my career as an accountant and, through my own healing journey in therapy, I decided that I wanted to help people heal just as I had been helped. I received my Masters in Counseling from Lindenwood University in 2016 and am a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in the state of Missouri.

Most of my professional career in counseling has been served with a local mental health agency, as well as a brief prior experience in private practice. The mental health agency has provided me with a lot of training and plethora of experience with individuals coping with anxiety, depression, substance use, dissociation, psychosis, and trauma to name a few. I am trained in EMDR therapy and CBT therapy. I also enjoy working with couples, helping them to understand the dynamics of their relationship, and to build better coping and communication skills to aid in overall healing.

When I’m not in the therapy office, I find myself hanging out with my son and partner, reading a good book, watching a movie or planning my next travel adventure.

Now accepting Self-Pay, Aetna, UMR, United Health Care and Ambetter.
