Hello and thank you for taking the time to visit my website. My name is Brandi Gillam and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Missouri. As a counselor, I have gained the knowledge and skills to help you break free from whatever may be holding you back from living a more peaceful, joyful, and fulfilling life.
I have specialized training in anxiety and trauma which can be brought on by adverse experiences in life. I am driven to help individuals navigate their journey towards healing from anxiety, trauma, chronic stress, abuse, neglect, abandonment, low self-worth, addiction, and unhealthy relationships.
I understand choosing a counselor can be a difficult and overwhelming decision; therefore, I’d like to describe the type of clients I do my best work with. Those individuals who benefit most from the work we do together:
- take responsibility for their progress
- invest in their personal development
- are willing to step out of their comfort zone to promote change
- desire a more meaningful life
My role as a counselor is to guide individuals in the process of change. I work together with my clients to establish self-awareness, desensitize current triggers, promote self-regulation skills, shift relationships with past experiences, and generate hope for the future. I believe you already have the power to heal Within You and I will assist you in exploring your inner world so that you can change your outer world.
My therapeutic approach is a holistic one encompassing both mind and body. In order to tailor each client’s experience to meet their desired goals and expectations, I incorporate several therapeutic techniques. These include a combination of EMDR, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness, Emotional Freedom Technique, psycho-education, stress management, parts work, and 12 Steps.
I feel called to support people through their journeys, rise above their hardships, and create meaningful and satisfying lives. I am passionate about helping those who have suffered to overcome their adversities and create positive changes in their lives. I’d love to speak to you about working together towards healing and change. Schedule an appointment with me today and let’s get started on creating the life you desire and deserve.
