More about me

Licensing: MAC, LPC Years in Practice: 6 State: Missouri

I am a licensed professional counselor in the State of Missouri, and I have been practicing for six years. I typically work with adolescents and adults, and I have experience treating a broad range of concerns. These include anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, spiritual crises, organizational skills and goals, communication, and relationships. I also have experience with grief and trauma, as well as abuse. Finally, I have also worked with couples and pre-marital counseling.

I utilize multiple different approaches, depending upon the context and the client's specific needs. For instance, I often utilize cognitive behavioral therapy, logotherapy, narrative therapy, and existential approaches. I appreciate the complexity of individual's and the variability each person's unique set of circumstances bring to the table. Hence, my approach reflects these observations, as I aim to avoid over-simplistic or reductionist views of people and their concerns.

Life can easily become overwhelming, as our daily experiences present us with a staggering amount of complexity and stress. It's not reasonable to assume that we can, or even should, handle these things on our own. We are social creatures, and thriving in the world requires us to take hold of those who have extended themselves to us. That is what it means to make the choice to speak to a counselor. It is the acceptance of an invitation to walk together, with someone, through a season of life. It is one of the most human things we can do.

I greatly anticipate walking alongside you, as you take the first steps to address and overcome the obstacles in your path.

About online counseling

Online counseling allows you to receive care from an online mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Wonderful therapist. So encouraging to me! I love his knowledge of scripture and how he helps me understand how it applies to my situation. Highly recommend.

William is spectacular! He is very present in sessions and in chats and is intentional with communicating in ways that work for you. William gets to know you as a person and what drives you, to create a baseline and build from there!

William Wilson is an amazing therapist! He has really helped me work through my grief from losing my father and a relationship I was in that was emotionally abusive. With him I’ve been able to process a lot of my feelings and feel validated, seen, heard, respected, and feel like I am much better adapted and equipped to deal with my life now. 10 out of 10 definitely recommend!

Jul 10, 2023

Overall

William is fantastic! He met all of my survey criteria for what I was looking for in a therapist so that's a huge part of it but on top of that he's objective, personable, gives me great insights and information. He breaks things down (for me as a Christian) in spiritual terms and contrasts how the same things would be viewed through a spiritual lens as well as secularly which provides framework and balance around certain concepts which I think is awesome. He remains objective where needed and also gives genuine opinions when requested which I like. He has overall been a major help for me during a difficult time in my life. I'd highly recommend him to anyone!

William is a kind-hearted, gentle therapist, who will lead you down paths you were not sure you could take. His gentle, friendly approach to therapy leads you to truly feel like he cares about you, your goals, your dreams, and your past traumas. I cannot recommend William enough for basically anyone who wants to explore themselves, their relationships, and their traumas.

William is very easy to talk to and understanding about my issues. I have enjoyed having him as my couselor and have gained a lot of insight that has helped me.

W.A.·Apr 26, 2021

Overall

William is great at what he does. I was hesitant to talk to a male councilor because I feel more comfortable expressing myself to a woman. I think it was a pride thing. But William made it easy for me to talk and be open and make steps forward, not backwards.

Simply stated: Billy is a rock star. He continues to save my life, week after week, year after year. I have spent countless hours for over half of my life, trying to find the right therapist for me. For the last 5 years, he has given me more support than any human that has come into my life. If more people in this world behaved like him, I just know this world would be a better, kinder, accepting and critical thinking place. A million thank you's for putting up with my chaos for all these years. You truly are a blessing.
