Getting to know Angela Dockins

I am a licensed professional counselor in the state of Missouri. I have been practicing as a therapist for over 10 years. I am trained in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, EMDR, and Prolonged Exposure. I have worked extensively with individuals who struggled with managing emotions and thoughts that may often lead to behaviors that interfere with their quality of life. My role is to accept you where you are at, and also work on helping to push towards the change you want in your life. My counseling style is empathetic, non-judgmental, and compassionate. I also specialize in working with people who have had trauma in their life, ranging from abandonment, neglect, sexual, physical abuse, emotional abuse, self-esteem issues, anxiety, attachment, and self-harming. My approach I am trained and certified in several therapeutic modalities, including Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Prolonged Exposure Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). These approaches allow me to effectively support clients dealing with past trauma as well as learn coping skills to manage difficult emotions, tolerate high levels of stress, and work to help build a life worth living. My focus I understand how overwhelming it can be to find the right therapist, not just someone who can address your specific concerns, but someone who feels like the right fit. I am not cookie-cutter, and I tailor treatment to your unique needs, helping us explore the best path forward together. You are not a problem to be 'fixed'; instead, I’m here to help you identify what truly matters to you, work toward your goals, and uncover any roadblocks that may be in your way. My clients often come to me with deep-rooted negative beliefs about themselves, basically that inner critic, that is making a lot of noise!
