Heavin Schmidt, LPC — Therapist in Missouri

Hi there, I'm Heavin!

I have experience working with those who have experienced trauma, life changes, and crisis situations. I am looking forward to helping you on your journey.

My focus

I am most interested in helping adults navigate through life changes, crises, and past trauma and its impact on their day-to-day.

My approach

I find value in solution-focused work and crisis management. I am also trained in TF-CBT and EMDR.

My communication style

I have a calming personality and tone. I work to maintain that calm as we work to develop a trusting therapeutic relationship.

My journey to mental healthcare

I have always had an interest in the helping professions. I started my career in social work as I continued to work towards licensure. I love this work because I value the impact a single interaction can have on someone's life and perspective.

My goals for you

I take a client-centered approach and offer my clinical opinion and guidance when appropriate.
