About Lucia Walker

My name is Lucia Walker, and I am a licensed clinical social worker, licensed in Missouri since 2013. I have a bachelors in psychology and a masters in criminal justice and social work. I have over 10 years of experience working with different age groups and working with people that may have different mental health conditions, such as major depressive disorder, bipolar disorder, ADHD, Anxiety disorders, and others. I have worked in both outpatient mental health centers and inpatient psychiatric hospital settings. My therapy style is warm and non judgement, I genuinely listening to my clients and respect their thoughts and ideas. I enjoy listening to my clients so they have an opportunity to vent and talk through the issues they are facing, while also helping my clients set goals, and learn effective coping skills. I provide feedback and help them see their situation from another angle so they can more effectively find solutions to their concerns. It is very important to me to view my client as a whole person, looking at the many different areas in their lives that effect their mental health, including the body, mind, and spirt. The main approaches that I use in therapy include cognitive behavioral approach, solution focused approach, and EMDR. If you suffer from depression or anxiety, attention issues, substance abuse concerns, anger outbursts, trauma issues or other concerns, I am here to help. I believe that you can improve your mental health, and overcome many of these concerns you have with a little help from others. I would love to be that person to help you achieve your mental health goals. If you would like to begin therapy sessions, please feel free to reach out to me.
