About Rixie
Rixie Morris is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Missouri with six years of clinical experience. She works with adults on common concerns such as depression, anxiety, stress, trauma, grief, parenting pressures, substance use, and anger. Sessions focus on practical ways to manage strong emotions and everyday problems.
Rixie’s style is client-centered, which means she follows the person’s lead and builds on what they already know about themselves. She also uses techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy to help people change unhelpful thoughts and learn skillful ways to cope. Mindfulness and Jungian ideas may be woven in when they suit the client’s goals.
In a typical session she helps people notice patterns that fuel outbursts or resentment, then offers concrete tools to interrupt those patterns. For parenting concerns she works on communication, boundary setting, and clearer routines. When substance use is involved she uses motivational interviewing strategies to explore readiness for change.
Rixie emphasizes straightforward collaboration. She listens, reflects what she hears, and suggests exercises to try between sessions. Progress is built step by step, with attention to daily life and real situations that trigger anger or stress.
Sessions are conducted in English. Rixie works from a practical lens - helping people handle tough moments, reduce reactivity, and make steady changes over time.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Rixie commonly uses client-centered work and cognitive behavioral therapy in her practice. Client-centered work emphasizes listening and following the client’s priorities, which helps shape session topics and pacing. CBT focuses on identifying thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and practicing alternatives that reduce reactivity and improve mood.She also uses dialectical behavior therapy skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. DBT skills are practical tools for managing intense feelings and improving how people respond in tense moments, which many find useful when anger or strong stress shows up.
Finding the right mix of approaches is collaborative. Rixie will talk with the client about goals, try techniques in sessions, and adjust based on what helps. That process continues as new challenges appear and goals shift.
