About Me
I am a social worker licensed in both Missouri and Ohio. I have several years experience working with individuals and families in the residential, home, and private practice setting. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, stress, anger, self-esteem, life transitions, relationship issues, parenting and peer problems, career or school challenges, and ADHD. I also helped many people who have experienced trauma especially in regards to neglect, emotional and physical abuse.
My style is warm, understanding, and collaborative. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, psychodynamic, strengths-based, solution focused therapy. I will tailor our interactions and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.
It takes a lot of courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you.
I would be honored to work with you!

Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Kristen Schmauder. We don’t pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
she’s literally the greatest of all time :p
Kristen has helped me process and reframe my thoughts. She is always encouraging and makes sure to take my lead on the direction of the conversation.
Realizing I sometimes need a push to talk, Kristen has really displayed how quickly she has learned what works for me vs not, offers support and suggestions, not to mention patience. I’m impressed how she has been able to pick up on the ‘big things’ that make up me that I didn’t even realize. I’m glad to be working with her and would recommend to others.
This has been a great start!
