About Rixie
Rixie Morris is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Missouri with six years of clinical experience. She sees people for common concerns such as depression, anxiety, stress, trauma, grief, parenting worries, and substance use challenges. Sessions are conducted in English and focus on practical steps to manage day-to-day problems.
She uses client-centered work to help people notice patterns that cause distress and then try different ways of responding. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) techniques are part of her approach. She also has a certification in play therapy and has worked with children, teens, and adults in past roles.
In sessions she listens to what matters most to the person and helps set small, achievable goals. That can include learning skills to reduce panic, managing mood shifts, or changing habits that fuel anxiety or low mood. Rixie guides practical exercises and homework to test new ways of thinking and behaving.
She also addresses relationship and intimacy-related issues, anger, self-esteem, ADHD, and coping with life changes. Additional focuses include attachment concerns, grief, feelings of emptiness, and problems tied to adoption or foster care experiences.
Her background includes direct mental health and behavioral counseling across age groups and work supporting people with substance use. Prospective clients are asked to confirm current session formats when they schedule so they understand how appointments are conducted.
How her approaches translate to online work
Rixie uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice thought patterns and try behavioral experiments. CBT focuses on concrete steps such as tracking triggers, testing alternative thoughts, and practicing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like panic and low mood.She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which emphasizes listening and collaborating on goals. That approach helps clarify what matters most to the person and shapes practical next steps. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills are used when intense emotions, mood instability, or difficulties with emotion regulation are present; DBT techniques include distress-tolerance and emotional regulation exercises.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist and client review goals, preferences, and how symptoms show up to decide which methods to try first. This is a collaborative process and can change as needs evolve.
Confirm current session options before booking so you know how appointments are delivered. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a weekly routine, save travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let people choose whether to use video or not where that option exists. Ask about the specific formats available when scheduling to match sessions to your practical needs.
