About Camilla

Dr. Camilla Connor is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Missouri with 15 years of experience. She has worked in residential programs, private practice, and university settings. She helps people address stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship problems, trauma and abuse, depression, grief, parenting strain, and anger.

Her approach mixes several methods so she can respond to what a person needs. Sessions focus on clear goals and practical steps. She works collaboratively to understand what is behind someone’s reactions and patterns. That means looking at current problems alongside life history and relationships.

Dr. Connor uses tools from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and cognitive behavioral work to help people notice difficult thoughts and try different behaviors. Attachment-based ideas are part of how she looks at relationship difficulties and intimacy concerns. Emotionally-focused techniques are used to help name and work through painful feelings.

For people with trauma or complicated grief she draws on experience from residential and university settings to offer steady support. She also brings coaching elements when clients want help with career decisions, coping with life changes, or building routines like sleep and eating. Anger and control issues are addressed by identifying triggers and practicing new responses.

Practical tasks and short-term experiments often appear in sessions. She asks clients to try new approaches between meetings and then reviews what worked and what didn’t. To begin, she helps clients set realistic steps they can use right away.

How sessions work

Approaches used and how online work can fit

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts without fighting them and then commit to actions that match their values. It often helps when anger or avoidance gets in the way of things that matter. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and uses short exercises to change unhelpful patterns. This is useful for stress, anxiety, and anger when patterns are identified and tested.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped in the past. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust them as progress is reviewed, keeping the plan practical and goal-oriented.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also lets people try different tools between meetings and then review outcomes with the therapist, which supports steady, measurable change.
