About Camilla
Dr. Camilla Connor is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Missouri with 15 years of clinical experience.
Background and approach
She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, trauma, grief, and many life transitions. Her steady, practical approach helps people take small steps that add up to real change.
She blends several therapeutic approaches to match each person's needs. Sessions often focus on clear goals, coping skills, and improving daily routines like sleep, eating, and managing anger.
She also helps people address intimacy, communication, and relationship patterns when those come up. Dr.
Connor has worked in residential settings, independent practice, and university environments. That range informally shaped how she plans care and supports people through crisis and recovery.
She uses methods drawn from cognitive behavioral therapy, attachment-informed work, and other approaches to help clients reduce distress and build healthier habits. When trauma is part of the story, she pays close attention to safety and pacing.
Work in this area aims to identify what holds someone back and then slowly loosen those patterns so they can move forward. She also offers coaching-style support for career decisions and purposeful life change.
Her style is collaborative and direct. People who prefer practical tools, clear steps, and a steady guide tend to do well.
Sessions may include skill practice, problem-solving, and discussion of values to help build a life that feels more manageable and meaningful.
Practical approaches delivered online
Dr. Connor often draws on the Gottman Method to look at relationship patterns and basic interaction habits. This approach helps identify communication routines that cause conflict and teaches clearer ways to connect and solve problems together.She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, which focuses on clarifying personal values and learning skills to accept difficult thoughts while moving toward valued actions. Attachment-Based Therapy is another common strand in her work, which looks at how early relationship patterns influence current connections and emotional reactions.
Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they decide which techniques to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for fuller conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can fit a quick check-in or lower-bandwidth needs, and chat or messaging allows short updates or leaning on skills between appointments. These options make it easier to schedule care around work, school, or family life while keeping therapy active over time.
