Kristie Tyson

Kristie Tyson

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • St. Louis, MO


I have dedicated my career to helping others since graduating from Truman State University in 1994 and later earning my Master's degree from Lindenwood University. Throughout my career, I have been passionate about supporting individuals and families through life's challenges while helping them discover hope, healing, and resilience.

My experience in the social services field has provided me with the opportunity to work with a diverse range of populations and settings, including juvenile services, foster care, behavioral schools, residential treatment facilities, substance abuse programs, and career development services. These experiences have deepened my understanding of the unique challenges people face and strengthened my commitment to ensuring that everyone has access to quality mental health care.

I specialize in working with individuals experiencing trauma, anxiety, and depression. I am trained in several evidence-based therapeutic approaches, including EMDR, DBT, CBT, and TF-CBT. Because every person's journey is unique, I tailor my approach to meet each client's individual needs, drawing from a variety of therapeutic tools to help them achieve meaningful and lasting change.

Together, we work to build on existing strengths, develop healthy coping skills, and create pathways toward emotional wellness and personal growth.

When I am not working, I enjoy being the proud mother of two wonderful young men. I am actively involved in my church and community and cherish spending time with family and friends. I also enjoy watching basketball, swimming, and taking advantage of every opportunity to enjoy the sunshine and warm-weather activities.
