About Rixie

Rixie Morris is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Missouri with six years of clinical experience. She focuses on creating a calm, nonjudgmental space where people can talk about what’s worrying them and start to make small changes. Rixie works with adults and adolescents around depression, anxiety, stress, grief, parenting struggles, and substance use concerns.

Her work is grounded in client-centered practice. She listens closely and follows each person’s pace, helping them name feelings and try practical skills. Rixie also uses techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy to help people manage overwhelming thoughts and emotions.

She pays attention to attachment and relationship patterns that show up after loss, abandonment, or in adoptive and foster care situations. Rixie helps people understand how past experiences shape current reactions and relationships. That often leads to clearer communication and steadier mood regulation.

Sessions emphasize hands-on coping tools. Clients learn ways to reduce anxiety, handle panic, and break out of unhelpful thinking cycles. Rixie also supports people working through anger, shame, or isolation, and those facing life transitions.

Her approach is collaborative and straightforward. She treats clients as partners in deciding goals and which techniques to try. The aim is practical progress people can notice between sessions.

How these approaches translate to online therapy

Rixie uses client-centered work alongside cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT). Client-centered therapy emphasizes listening closely and shaping the pace and goals around the person in front of her, which helps people feel heard and in control of sessions. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, useful for anxiety, depression, and panic. DBT provides skills for managing intense emotions, reducing impulsive reactions, and improving relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Rixie will talk with the client about goals, life demands, and what feels manageable, then recommend techniques to try. That collaborative process helps decide whether CBT skills, DBT coping strategies, or a client-led conversation will best fit current needs.

Check the session format options before booking to confirm what is currently offered. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It also lets people practice new skills in their everyday routines and bring real-life examples straight into sessions.
