About Camilla

Dr. Camilla Connor is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Missouri with 15 years of experience. She offers practical, step-by-step support for people facing stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, addiction, grief, and parenting challenges.

Dr. Connor draws on a range of methods so each person’s plan fits their life and goals. Her style is collaborative and straightforward.

Sessions focus on understanding a person’s daily experience and tackling the problems that get in the way of feeling steady and capable.

Background and approach

She pays close attention to trauma and its effects, and she helps people identify patterns that limit them. Dr. Connor blends approaches such as cognitive behavioral work and attachment-based ideas to help clients change unhelpful thoughts and strengthen important relationships.

She also uses acceptance and commitment concepts to help people clarify values and take meaningful steps toward them. Her background includes work in residential settings, university counseling, and independent practice. That range informs an approach that is flexible and realistic about life’s demands.

She aims to help clients rebuild routines, repair strained connections, and regain confidence. Practical tools, short-term goals, and coaching-style guidance are common parts of sessions. Dr.

Connor emphasizes slow, steady progress and supports clients as they make concrete changes that fit their circumstances.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people clarify what matters to them and take manageable steps toward those values. It is useful for stress, anxiety, and coping with life changes by focusing on action rather than trying to eliminate difficult feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, looks at patterns of thinking and behavior and teaches concrete strategies to change unhelpful thoughts and habits. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression, sleep and eating concerns, and coping skills work. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how early and current relationships shape comfort with intimacy and trust, and it helps people identify and shift relational patterns that cause pain.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and day-to-day realities, and then recommend or combine methods that seem most likely to help. This collaborative process allows adjustments over time so the plan stays practical and relevant.

Online sessions use video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit busy schedules and different comfort levels. These formats make it easier to keep therapy consistent while balancing work, family, and other responsibilities. Therapists use these tools to teach skills, coach through difficult moments, and track small steps of progress over weeks and months.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.

Attachment-Based Therapy

Looks at how early bonds shaped what you expect from closeness, and how that plays out now with a partner, a parent, or your own children.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
