Cathy Figgins

Hello, I'm Cathy. My philosophy is that our bodies are incredible machines; they can heal from most anything if we take care of them. Recently, I became certified in Nutritional Psychology, and I firmly believe the Gut-Brain Axis explains how our gut health directly impacts our mental health. Together, we can work to decrease or eliminate any mental stressors you are experiencing by healing mind and body as one cohesive unit.

I graduated in 2010 from Lincoln University in Missouri with an M.Ed. in Guidance and Counseling. Over the past 8 years, I have been working in private practice as a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Registered Play Therapist Supervisor (RPT-S). My experience spans working with children and their families on behavioral issues, as well as helping adults navigate inner child conflicts, depression, anxiety, and various other personal challenges.

My theoretical approach to therapy is eclectic, drawing from experiential and client-centered therapies to facilitate healing. I am certified in eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), Sandtray Therapy, and Play Therapy, and I work with clients of all ages. Currently, I am pursuing certification in integrated mental health to further my studies in natural healing approaches beyond medication.

Therapy can be hard work, but I will be there to walk alongside you on your journey to healing. Together, we will explore and address the root causes of your challenges, fostering a holistic recovery that encompasses both mind and body. If you're ready to take the first step towards a healthier, more balanced life, I invite you to reach out and start this journey with me.
