Telehealth Therapy for Columbia, MO
Specialty Telehealth Care for Columbia / mid-Missouri — around 130,000 in the city and 215,000 in the metro
Specialty therapy for Columbia, MO — without the commute
Columbia clients are often connected to Mizzou, MU Health Care, Boone Hospital, Stephens or Columbia College. Telehealth means you can take a session from a campus office, your downtown apartment, or your home in Old Southwest without leaving for a Kansas City or St. Louis specialist.
Mid-Missouri clients are heavily concentrated in higher education and healthcare (MU Health Care, MU School of Medicine, Boone Health, Truman VA). We see a steady stream of grad students, residents, journalism school staff, and clinical professionals — many of whom specifically want a therapist outside of MU's internal referral network.
Why Columbia residents choose this practice
- Specialized OCD/ERP and EMDR work that goes beyond Mizzou's training clinic
- Discreet sessions for MU students, faculty and clinical staff
- No I-70 driving to a STL or KC specialist
- Evening slots that fit around MU Health and Boone shift schedules
- Same therapist whether you're in Columbia, Ashland or Jefferson City

Columbia therapy FAQ
Can Mizzou students use telehealth therapy?
Yes — as long as you are physically located in Missouri (or another PSYPACT state) at the time of the session. Many MU students prefer a private therapist outside the campus counseling system.
Do you accept the MU Health Plan?
No — we are in-network with Cox Health Plans and Aetna. MU Health Plan members typically pay self-pay and submit a superbill for partial out-of-network reimbursement.
Can I be seen if I drive to Jefferson City for work?
Yes. As long as you are physically in Missouri (or another PSYPACT state) during the session, you can take it from your office, a parked car on a lunch break, or home.
What if I'm a Mizzou med student or resident?
Many of our Columbia clients are MU School of Medicine learners. We work with both the burnout/depersonalization side and the clinical specialty side (OCD, trauma, perinatal) and can flex around overnight call.
Do you offer same-week appointments?
Sometimes, especially during evenings. Booking a free 15-minute consult is the fastest way to see what's open this week.
