About Camilla
Dr. Camilla Connor is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Missouri with 15 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on problems such as stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and relationship strain. Dr. Connor’s background includes residential care, university settings, and private practice.
She uses a mix of approaches rather than a single method. That means sessions may draw on cognitive behavioral techniques, Attachment-Based ideas, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, emotionally-focused tools, or existential questions depending on the issue. The focus is practical - understanding what is getting in the way and trying concrete steps to change it.
Dr. Connor often helps people untangle patterns that affect family life and parenting, and she works with concerns like grief, intimacy problems, addiction, sleeping and eating issues, and burnout. She also addresses attachment and abandonment themes, blended family stresses, caregiver strain, and communication or control issues.
In session she takes a collaborative stance. Conversations aim to clarify goals, notice repeating patterns, and try doable experiments or skill practice between meetings. For trauma-related work she combines attention to safety with paced processing and grounding strategies.
Practical coaching and discussions about spiritual wellbeing are sometimes part of her work when clients want them. Dr. Connor asks people to consider small, manageable changes first and builds from there toward larger life adjustments.
She conducts work in English and practices in Missouri as an LPC. Before booking, readers should confirm the current session formats and scheduling details.
How sessions work
How therapy approaches guide online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and it helps clarify personal values to guide action. ACT can be useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions where choices feel blocked.Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape present patterns. It helps people identify repeating relationship behaviors and try new ways of relating, which can be relevant for intimacy issues, commitment concerns, and family role conflicts.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about what feels most helpful, and then try methods that match goals and preferences. That collaborative process can include checking in and adjusting techniques over time.
Confirm the specific session formats before booking, as the profile does not list them. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and remove travel time. Telephone options may use less bandwidth and can be useful when a video call is difficult. The emphasis is on practical ways to make regular sessions workable for day-to-day life rather than promising a particular session type.
