Weldon Spring, MO Local Support & Community Resources

Dr. Zhanna Keeton is a licensed professional counselor who understands that life changes can be difficult, trauma can be consuming, and stress can overwhelm individuals to the point where they may forget simple joys. She supports those experiencing symptoms such as headaches unrelated to medical conditions, the feeling of knots in their stomach, emotional overreactions with loved ones, or racing hearts at the sight of certain names. In her practice, Zhanna utilizes a variety of techniques tailored to each individual's needs, guiding them to address the uncomfortable feelings in their bodies and change their lives for the better. Clients work collaboratively with her to tackle the issues they face, expand their perspectives, and create personalized plans aimed at rediscovering joy and moving from merely surviving to fully living. Zhanna’s practice is distinct from typical counseling agencies, enriching the therapeutic experience with technology that illustrates the connection between emotions and heart rate, utilizing DBT therapy techniques, and incorporating therapy dogs during sessions. Through this innovative approach, she connects brain functions, body symptoms, and thoughts to devise strategies that optimize her clients' lives.
