Lucia Walker

Lucia Walker is a licensed clinical social worker in Missouri who has been practicing since 2013. She holds a bachelor’s degree in psychology and a master’s degree in criminal justice and social work, and brings 12 years of clinical experience to her practice.

She has worked with people across the lifespan, including teenagers experiencing conditions such as major depressive disorder, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and anxiety disorders. Her background includes roles in both outpatient mental health centers and inpatient psychiatric hospital settings.

Her therapeutic approach is warm and nonjudgmental; she listens closely to clients and treats their perspectives with respect. Sessions are typically scheduled for 30 minutes to promote focused, efficient work on problems and solutions, and can be extended to 45 minutes when a longer visit is needed.

During sessions she offers feedback, helps clients develop practical strategies, and introduces alternative perspectives to navigate difficult situations. She takes a holistic view of wellbeing, considering social, physical, mental, and spiritual influences on mental health. The primary clinical modalities she uses are cognitive behavioral therapy and solution-focused techniques.

Lucia Walker accepts clients dealing with depression, anxiety, attention challenges, trauma, and related concerns. She believes improvement is possible with professional support and is available to begin therapy when clients are ready to reach out.
