Trauma and PTSD Therapists in Cameron, MO

At Corona Counseling, I enjoy working with clients from all backgrounds and life situations. I often deal with clients who suffer from depression, anxiety, trauma, and relationship issues. The majority of the goals for clients I see include communication skills, improving self-esteem, and utilizing coping techniques to improve overall mood and stress levels.

Life has a way of paralyzing us with negative “what if’s?" What if there was a way to become unstuck? What if someone sat in the muck with you? What if you could finally get through a conversation with your child or spouse without yelling or storming off? Those are just a few what-ifs we can explore together. Let's create a space where you feel seen, valued, and understood. Together we can create a space where things feel less lonely, complex, or overwhelming. A space where you feel like you have your child's spark back. Wouldn't you like life to feel a little more possible? A little less lonely? To see smiles instead of tears?

I’m here to help you create the life you have been striving for! I believe in the empowerment and recovery of all individuals. I understand the vulnerability it takes to reach out for help and I commend you for taking that step today. I utilize a positive therapeutic approach to meet my clients where they are, build rapport and help you identify goals to improve your quality of life. Whether you are experiencing increased feelings of sadness, worry, stress with work, relationships or past trauma. I am here for you and would like to support you in Feeling Better!

Hi! My name is Miranda and I am a clinically licensed social worker (LSCSW/LCSW) in both Kansas and Missouri. I'm a trauma-focused therapist with multiple certifications, who is EMDR trained. I have experience working with differently-abled individuals, refugees & asylum-seekers, and people from all backgrounds living with various challenges. I am very passionate about working with clients who have experienced trauma, particularly helping professionals. I also love serving the perinatal population.

Many people with anxiety attempt to control their thoughts, avoid, or perform behaviors to prevent unease or a negative outcome, only for worry to return. This feels intuitive, but actually prolongs distress long-term by reinforcing the ideas of intolerance and that there is something to fear. It's human nature to experience some discomfort. With Exposure Therapy, you can gradually minimize fears with support and thrive *in spite of* discomforts the brain, body, & life send your way. Let's replace the confinements of certainty with the freedom of uncertainty.

Maybe you’ve tried everything. You’ve spent the last of your energy and hope. It feels like depression and anxiety are winning. Or drugs or alcohol are taking over. It’s a scary place to be. And can feel lonely. But you don’t have to be alone. I work with clients in this scary place and am unafraid to step into these challenges with you. You already have the strength and courage to do this. I can help you find your own way to make different choices for yourself and make your situation better.

Life, laughter, and love are important to living life wholeheartedly, but psychological pain can get in the way. Abuse in the context of a close relationship or a family can create the most pervasive and persistent psych-ache, and may be passed from generation to generation. Whether the source of pain is past trauma, worry about the future, or even current jobs or relationships, I am here to help! I often see clients whose trauma began in domestic abuse in the forms of emotional, psychological, physical, sexual, or financial abuses.

I am a clinician that works exclusively with folks experiencing Perinatal Mood & Anxiety Disorders, pregnancy and birth trauma and bereavement with pregnancy or infant loss. Growing a family can be full of twists, turns, ups and downs, often creating heartache, grief, depression, trauma, anxiety and a whole host of other challenges before during and after a baby. I work to meet my clients where they are in their journey. I will walk beside you, empower and support you and your family in reaching your goals, whatever that looks like.

My ideal client grapples with anxiety, trauma, or addictions. They span across all age groups, from adolescents to the elderly. At the core of their struggle is a fervent desire for serenity and self-acceptance. Their ultimate goal isn't just to find relief but to also embrace transformative change. They're actively seeking not just a momentary reprieve but a sustained peace, and with the right guidance, they aspire to cultivate a life of calm and understanding.
