Clinical Counseling Interns

Welcome to our intern page. We are grateful to partner with these clinicians in training as they provide a valuable resource to our community. Each of these interns come from a variety of backgrounds and experiences and they add a new depth to our practice. Our counseling interns come to us from various local colleges and educational backgrounds. All interns are fully insured and are approved by the State of Missouri to provide counseling services under the direct supervision of a licensed therapist. Feel free to let us know if you are interested in starting counseling sessions with one of our interns. You can reach out to us by email located on the "Contact Us" page or click on the Forms button below to complete an registration packet. 

Clinical Counseling Interns Fall 2024 & Spring 2025

Olivia Barrott.jpeg

Intern  - Olivia Barrott

I am a therapist-in-training working on my Master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy with Capella University. I am graduating with my Master of Science degree in September 2025.

 

I earned my Bachelor’s of Science degree in Psychology from College of the Ozarks in Point Lookout, Missouri in 2018. I have worked in the mental health field since 2019 doing community mental health outreach. My primary experience has been working with children, adolescents, and their parents. I also have experience working in the field of addictions recovery.

 

I am here to provide support and to provide a non-judgmental space where clients can express themselves freely. I work from a client-centered approach, and look to be a co-author with you in your life story, as we discover new chapters. I use collaborative and narrative systemic approaches to learn about the people in your life, the effects you have on each other, and to increase your sense of well-being and hope. I believe that you are the expert on your life story, and I am here to learn all about you and help you author your life to what you want to see.

Intern  - Megan Huddle 

I obtained a Bachelor of Science degree in Community Psychology from St. Cloud State, and I am currently working toward completing my master’s degree in clinical mental health counseling from Walden University. I will graduate at the end of this year.

 

I hope to cultivate a safe space for individuals to bring in their worries, trauma, and concerns so they feel heard and valued. While working collaboratively, we can pinpoint areas you would like to work on and/or get relief from.

 

I will be using a combination of CBT & DBT to target unhelpful thoughts and behaviors that are unhelpful. With these approaches, we can work together to identify core beliefs and use psychoeducation to teach various skills so that you can be successful in managing your thoughts, everyday emotions, and life struggles.
