About Rixie
Rixie Morris is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Missouri with six years of clinical experience. She works with adults and younger clients who bring concerns like depression, anxiety, stress, trauma, grief, parenting struggles, and substance use. Rixie also lists anger, relationship and intimacy issues, attention concerns, and mood conditions among her areas of focus.
Her primary orientation is client-centered therapy. She aims to create a straightforward setting where people can speak about what is bothering them and sort out what they want to change. She uses practical techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavioral therapy alongside play therapy skills when appropriate for younger clients.
Sessions are conversational and goal-focused. Rixie listens for patterns that keep problems repeating and helps people test new ways of responding. She breaks bigger problems into manageable steps and practices skills in session so clients can try them between meetings.
She has experience helping people manage strong emotions, handle life transitions, and work through grief or trauma. She also supports those addressing substance use and mood instability. Rixie pays attention to attachment and long-term relational patterns that affect how people relate to others.
Her work emphasizes collaboration. Clients are treated as the experts on their lives while the counselor offers observations, structured tools, and skill-building. To begin, clients complete a brief matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the online options button.
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what matters to the client. In online sessions that means the counselor follows the client's lead, asks clarifying questions, and helps people set short-term goals that fit their life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. Online CBT typically uses worksheet-style practice and short behavioral experiments you can try between appointments to test new responses to anger or anxiety. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes skill-building for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. Those DBT skills can be taught and practiced in session and then used in daily situations like workplace stress or heated conversations.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to identify which methods seem useful and adjust those methods over time. This is a joint process based on the client's goals, day-to-day needs, and what works in practice.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work, appointments, or parenting. They also allow for short check-ins or focused skill practice when a full in-person trip would be difficult. Licensed professionals often use a mix of conversational check-ins and structured skill teaching that translate well to a remote setting, and the same practical focus applies when arranging sessions with this clinician.
