About Misty

Misty Humphrey is an LCPC - Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor in Kansas with eight years of clinical experience. She works with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression, and life changes. Her profile also notes experience with codependency, first responder issues, guilt and shame, mood disorders, post-traumatic stress, and social anxiety and phobia.

She uses Accelerated Resolution Therapy alongside cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy skills. Sessions focus on practical steps and skill practice. Conversations cover unhelpful thought patterns, ways to manage strong feelings, and small behavioral changes that can reduce day-to-day distress.

Misty aims to create an open setting where clients can talk about thoughts and feelings without judgment. She guides people through concrete tools and short exercises, then checks how those tools are working in daily life. Goals are set together and revisited as progress unfolds.

For someone feeling overwhelmed by social situations, performance anxiety, or the aftermath of trauma, she offers structured techniques and repeated practice to build confidence in real situations. She also supports people facing major life transitions and persistent low mood with step-by-step coping strategies.

Her approach blends brief, focused interventions with skills training so clients can try changes between sessions. Prospective clients should confirm current session formats before booking and follow the site steps to match and schedule a first session.

How therapeutic methods translate to online work

The profile lists Accelerated Resolution Therapy, plus use of cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy skills. Accelerated Resolution Therapy focuses on reducing the intensity of distressing memories and images through guided processing, which can help with trauma-related symptoms and intrusive memories. Cognitive behavioral therapy teaches people to notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, useful for anxiety and mood issues. Dialectical behavior therapy skills include emotion regulation and distress tolerance techniques that help manage strong feelings and reduce impulsive reactions.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the early work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which methods fit best based on goals, what has or hasn’t helped before, and how comfortable the client feels with each technique. That decision is revisited as progress is tracked and needs change.

The original biography does not specify session formats, so confirm available online options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and let people attend from locations that reduce interruptions. Telephone sessions can be shorter check-ins when bandwidth is limited, and video sessions allow face-to-face skill practice and live coaching during role-plays. Ask about current formats when booking so sessions match your schedule and preferences.
