Let’s get started.

The State of Mental Health in Missouri

You deserve to live a safe, happy, and healthy life.

But for many children and adults in Missouri, the journey to hope and healing is often blocked by anxiety, depression, family and marital problems, psychiatric disorders, and lack of access to community resources.

Combined, nearly a million children and adults in Missouri live with mental health conditions, and the state has one of the lowest rankings when it comes to mental health quality of life in US.

We strive to change that here at Counseling Now.

We hope that through our online counseling and psychiatry services in Missouri, we can help every child and adult succeed in every aspect of their life.

A You-First Approach to Mental Health Counseling Services

At Counseling Now, we believe in a patient-first approach to mental healthcare, psychiatry, and case management in Missouri.

That’s why every child and adult who comes to us is treated with the same level of care and respect.

We don’t think of our patients as numbers on a spreadsheet or even as cases that need solving—we think of them as individuals, with unique needs and stories.

And because we understand this, expect to receive an individualized treatment plan that considers your culture, needs, personal history, and specific situation.

Finally, trust us to serve you with respect and dignity no matter your age, gender identity, race, ethnicity, mental health issue, or where you live in Missouri.

We aren’t just a counseling service—we’re a community of people who care about you and want to see you succeed.

Counseling Now: Online Counseling & Psychiatric Services in Missouri

The demand for mental health providers in Missouri far outweighs the supply. The situation is especially serious in rural areas, many of which don’t have access to mental health care. Fortunately, modern technology has broken down some of those barriers.

We’ve taken full advantage of this here at Counseling Now. We’ve designed all of our online counseling and psychiatric services in Missouri to be accessible through any device with a connection to the internet, such as a phone, desktop computer, laptop, or tablet.

No need to miss work or school. Never worry about securing transportation, childcare, or forcing yourself to interact with strangers while waiting for your session.

Attend your therapy session at your own time, in any place you feel safe and comfortable.

Finally, you don’t have to wait weeks or months to receive care either– most of our clients are able to book an appointment and see a mental health provider within the same week.

Psychiatry Services in Ohio

Whatever you’re struggling with, time is of the essence for psychiatric patients like you in Ohio. Even “mild” symptoms like restlessness, lack of appetite, or irritability can turn into a full-blown episode if not addressed quickly enough.

In particular, those with moderate-to-severe mental illnesses such as schizophrenia had better outcomes the earlier they received the intervention.

You can’t afford to wait weeks or months when you or your loved ones are having a psychotic break or need your medications adjusted.

Early diagnosis also contributes to higher levels of treatment success for most disorders, including bipolar disorder, major depressive disorder, and generalized anxiety disorder.

Working with a virtual psychiatrist from Counseling Now allows you to skip long waitlists at clinics or hospitals and receive the help you or your loved one needs right away.

  • Depression
  • Anxiety
  • PTSD
  • OCD
  • Mood Disorders
  • PPD
  • Eating Disorders
  • Schizophrenia
  • And more

Our licensed psychiatrists, family nurse practitioners (FNPs) and psychiatric nurse practitioners (PNPs) are trained in assessment and diagnosis, including psychiatric evaluations, psychotherapy, and prescribing medications.

As part of our psychiatry services, we also offer medication management for children, teens, adults, and senior patients in Ohio.

Our specialists can help you transition to a new medication regimen, assist you with adjusting your dosage, and help you cope with side effects.

No matter where you are in Ohio, we will meet with you by video or phone, and we’ll be there for you when you need us through even the toughest of times.
