Kay Adkins
My name is Kay Adkins and I am a Professional Licensed Counselor (LPC). I started my education at College of the Ozarks, Point Lookout, Missouri where I received my Bachelor of Science in Philosophy/Religion and Psychology. I went on to complete my Master's in Science in Counseling from Missouri State University, Springfield, Missouri. I am trained primarily in Person-Centered Therapy, a client centered approach that allows the client to lead the session. I have over seven years of experience providing individual, group, and family therapy using Person-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), components of Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), rational perspective, and Solution Focused therapy. I am also finishing up a certificate course in Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT). I have experience working in a variety of settings including office and in-home private practice, residential care for adolescents, 7 Day Follow-up, and intensive outpatient within a medical facility. I have worked with a diverse population including children, adults, geriatrics, foster care, low socioeconomic levels, and supporting others with varying disabilities. I have experience working with a wide range of disorders and concerns, including depression, anxiety, life adjustment, daily stress management, childhood trauma, Gay-Lesbian, and self-esteem related concerns. I trust in my clients and believe that that they can make effective decisions regarding their personal counseling goals and treatment. And I believe that it is up to the client to determine his or her own personal progress and growth according to what is best for the individual. I believe each one of us has the ability to make choices and face challenges, but at times we need a word of encouragement or even a strong nudge to get started. Sometimes we just need one other person to validate, hear, and believe in us. I hope that together we will be able to find the healing, support, and growth you are searching for through counseling.

I want to be a companion with you in your process, helping you identify your own goals and strengths. I believe all of us have some natural resilience and the ability to grow and to reinvent ourselves, given the right resources and support. My experience has been that grief and loss are major issues in our life and that we can develop coping skills to successfully move forward. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, psychodynamic and interpersonal counseling. I will work on finding the right approach for you in order to meet your needs.

I am delighted that you have decided to consider counseling. I know the decision to seek counseling is important to you and hope we find I am a match for your journey of self-improvement. I believe that all who come to counseling possess a strength and courage that allows them to create a better and more fulfilling life. Whether you are feeling frustrated, lonely or depressed, I know there are many ways for you to begin to understand yourself and make progress. You might be unhappy with your relationships or the sense that there is more to life than what you are experiencing now. You may be relatively happy with your life and relationships, but want to find an even better way to live your life. All of these issues can be addressed in counseling. I believe the counseling relationship involves working together to develop a plan for your improvement. Sometimes you may need a listening, non-judgmental person to help you focus. Other time you may want a bit of advice on next steps. The key is to make sure you understand and trust the process so that your goals are in the forefront of each interaction. I love the ability people show with implementing change is his/her own unique way. I have worked for many years in healthcare. I became interested in counseling through my work with sleep disorders. While a guest lecturer at Stanford, I became familiar with the mental health aspects in this field. I wanted to gain more skills in this area so embarked upon a Master's degree in counseling. Quickly I became interested in much more in mental health than just sleep disorders I began a private practice 13 years ago where I work with many different kinds of issues. I work with people struggling with depression, anxiety, general life changes as well as sleep related problems. It has been so gratifying to have the privilege to work with all clients who are in the process of transforming their lives.

Dr. Carolyn Hughes
I enjoy working with individuals who are seeking a real change in their life. Sometimes you are "tired of the rut I am in" or feeling that "something needs to change..I do not want to feel like this anymore." Sometimes you are struggling with "old issues" and sometimes it is more current stresses like anxiety, relationships, or just do not know what to do next; I believe when you are ready to make a change, having a supportive push can really work! I have been a practicing social worker since 1985. I have worked in many areas of practice including active duty military members and families, VA hospitals, and community mental health. I currently specialize in treating trauma of all kinds, depression, anxiety, women’s issues and life transitions. I enjoy supporting people seeking positive life changes. I am a firm believer in real change being very possible. For me, therapy is a support system offering a course of treatment. I usually work with a client for 8 to 10 sessions with a goal of active change and renewed energy and confidence. Give therapy a chance...give me a call.
