Hello and welcome to Better Help! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Missouri. I earned my Master of Social Work degree from Missouri State University in 2012. I have worked in several different settings with individuals and families who have been challenged by issues such as depression, anxiety, parenting challenges, trauma/abuse, relationship issues, and more. I have worked with clients in an office setting, in their homes, and via telehealth (online). My approach is solution focused, client centered, and strengths based. We all want to be able to share our personal truths and be accepted and understood. It's very important to me to be open-minded and non-judgmental when someone shares their personal story or experiences with me.

I strive to meet clients where they are and team up with them to help them achieve their goals and make positive changes. I have immense respect for those who have the courage to ask for help and I will do my best to honor your efforts, commitment, and time.

Hello, My name is Mat Crawford. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor licensed in Texas, Oklahoma, Missouri, and Louisiana. I have a master's degree in counseling from Arizona State University. I have been working as a counselor since 2008. I have worked with clients in a number of areas. I am most experienced in career counseling and coping with significant life changes. Career counseling includes work/life balance, career/vocational exploration, career transitions, workplace issues (getting along with coworkers, bosses, etc.), and other workplace related stress/anxiety. Significant life changes can cover just about any change in your regular routines and/or support system that is leading to difficulties with grief, a sense of loss, burnout, increased stress, anxiety, or depression. I am a big advocate for self-care and enjoy helping others establish a plan to make self-care part of their regular routines. While I hesitate to label myself as any sort of faith based counselor because it wasn't something I specifically sought out in my training, the experiences seem to have sought me out. As a result I have an extensive background working with clients on incorporating their faith and spiritual practices into their mental health care. I very much enjoying learning about how people's personal spiritual/religious beliefs and practices impact their lives and helping them reconcile beliefs and behaviors. I am fully open to working with people of any spiritual persuasion but have a particularly extensive background working with members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. My style is warm and compassionate. My focus is to understand your unique situation. You are the expert on your life and I'm here to help you find solutions that will work best for you. I am a client-centered therapist and believe in treating others with respect. I enjoying meeting you where you are in life and moving along at a pace with which you are comfortable. Seeking help to initiate or cope with change in life is a significant step. I am honored each time someone trusts me to open up about their lives and discuss the changes they would like to make. I commit to taking that journey of change with you and giving you a safe place, void of judgement, to try new things, think out loud, and work toward becoming more of the person you want to be.

My professional background is extensive and has allowed me to work with many cultures, ages, and stations in life. I come from a teaching and management background, and returned to graduate school later in my career to complete a Master in Social Work. All of my adventures have led me to love clinical work because I am able to help clients from many different backgrounds. My approach to therapy always starts with learning about where my client is right now and why they chose to come to therapy. Once we establish workable and realistic goals, then I can determine which clinical approach may work best. This can be Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance Commitment Therapy, or perhaps solution-focused therapy. Each individual is unique, so one approach may not meet that client's needs. It all depends on what works best for the client

7 years of experience offering psychology treatment

I have been licensed in Missouri since 2007 and through the years I have worked with children, teens and adults in group and therapeutic settings. Outside of a traditional counseling setting, I have worked with youth, adults and families within the Missouri Foster Care system for the majority of my career. A little history on how I got here! Growing up, I wanted to be a rockstar, teacher, ballerina, and veterinarian. What I ended up realizing is that I had a pull towards wanting to understand human behavior and to help people be the best versions of themselves. I went to a small liberal arts college and majored in psychology and then attended Saint Louis University for my Masters degree in Community Counseling, graduating in 2004. And here I am! During my professional career, I have gained an understanding of the affects of Trauma and how to identify and process trauma responses. I have training in EMDR which provides me an understanding around how stuck points connected to life experiences can keep an individual from moving forward. I am very solution focused in my approach and I want to help the client identify ways to move forward without getting bogged down in the past. Most of all, I believe the most important part of counseling is to provide an active ear and to be present while walking through an experience with the client. The client is the expert in their life and my purpose is to help them to see what they already know, which is all the strength they bring to the table.

Frequently asked questions (FAQs) about therapists and mental health services

Some other commonly asked questions on therapy with a licensed counselor and BetterHelp serving the Farmington area can be found below:

How does the cost of in-person counseling with a therapist compare to the cost of BetterHelp with a licensed Farmington therapist?

The average price of an in-person therapy session in the US with most therapists is $100 to $200 per hour. These prices may be higher in Farmington due to a higher cost of living, and a limited number of therapists taking new clients. The price also depends on the type of provider you are looking for. See the following average prices for various mental health providers without insurance:

  • Counseling with a psychiatrist: $150-$500
  • Counseling with therapists: $100-300
  • Therapy with a clinician: $100

While many psychologists in Farmington may not take health insurance, some in the state of Missouri may work on a sliding scale, meaning they'll factor in your income and charge what you can afford per session. With a BetterHelp therapist throughout the state of Missouri you can expect significantly more affordable options, with sessions ranging from $65 to $100 per week (billed every four weeks).

Is mental health care and therapy with a therapist worth it?

Therapy with a licensed counselor is effective and has the power to change individuals' lives. Each client is at a different stage of their emotional healing journey in life, as each human can be unique in their personality, expression, skills, and goals. An experienced clinician can target various symptoms, experiences, and personalities to help you feel your best and put you on the path to healing. Unlike advice from a friend, family, or non-professional, a mental health therapist has an understanding of various disorders like ADHD and depression with many hours of experience in treating adults in their practice. For this reason, seeing an evidence based licensed clinician in Farmington, Missouri can be worth it. Over 41 million adults in the US attend therapy services each year, showing it's a popular option and is proven to be effective.

Farmington has many clinicians who practice person or client-centered individual therapy in-person and through online sessions to assist clients in their healing journey. If you opt into online therapy, you might also be able to meet with providers all over the United States and change easily at any time. Many people struggling with anxiety and depression, substance abuse, body image issues, and more find therapists that are a good fit for them, feel supported, and gain further insight into their lives through internet-based therapy.

Do therapists judge you in therapy sessions during telehealth appointments?

The boundaries between you and a therapist are in place to help you and them regarding ethical concerns. Mental health professionals are held by ethical standards through the American Psychological Association (APA) and are not allowed to judge or harm their clients. If you are concerned about sharing details about yourself, feel free to withhold personal information. Their job in the therapeutic relationship is to create a safe place, help you gain a deeper understanding of your mental health, and support you. You might consider changing counselors if you don't feel safe or respected.
