Who We Are
As a multispecialty practice, we empower women to live their best life. Our Mission. Empowering women to embrace their worth and create deep-meaning relationships.
Our team of dedicated professionals is committed to providing exceptional care for you and your loved ones. We embrace a collaborative approach as we help you achieve your goals. With a wide range of skills and expertise, we are uniquely qualified to support your journey towards achieving health and happiness.
We believe true wellness is achieved by integrating the deeper work with real concrete solutions. We value authenticity and allow ourselves to bring our whole self into our sessions with you. What does that mean for you?
We create a space for you to show up and keep it real. There’s no need to pretend you have your sh*t together or minimize your pain. We create a space for you to let down your walls and show up as you really are. You get to be real, uncensored, and unapologetic. Wear legging, drop F-Bomb's, and tell all with a clinician who gets it.
We excel at helping girls and women at every life stage. Including kids (7 years old +), teens, college students, young professionals, and adults in Mid-Missouri. We provide individual counseling, couples counseling, and family therapy. We use a variety of evidence-based techniques, including Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Person-Centered, Interpersonal, and more.
We may only be a small part of each other's journey, but your experiences at Brave will last you a lifetime. Real change starts with you! We invite you to reach out today! Life's too short to wait. Let's get started on building the life you deserve.
Brave’s essential core value is inclusion & acceptance. Allied with people from all walks of life.
You deserve to be healthy and happy.
You've likely been considering seeking help for a long time. You've been toying with the idea of counseling for a while now. But something always held you back. You may not realize you've already taken your first step towards healing. You are not alone. We are here with you, ready to stand beside you as you face those challenges ahead.
