Jean Sokora

Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships

About

I am a clinical social worker licensed in Missouri, with over 40 years of experience working in the field of addiction medicine. I am also credentialed as a co-occurring disorder specialist through the Missouri Credentialing Board. I work with clients who are experiencing mental health and substance use challenges, such as depression, anxiety, trauma, and concern about substances.

I use a strengths-based client centered approach, as I believe therapy is a collaborative relationship and the goal is to help you achieve health and wellness. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, motivational interviewing, harm reduction, and strengths-based therapies. We will work together to determine the outcomes you hope to achieve and the best way to get there.

Asking for help is one of the most difficult things to do and if you are reading this – I hope you reach out to me or someone to find the help you need.

I look forward to the opportunity to work together!

Is Online Therapy the Right Step Toward Better Mental Health?

Many people wonder whether virtual counseling can truly help. For a range of common concerns – such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, or major life transitions – online therapy has been shown to be just as effective as traditional in-person sessions. A major benefit is convenience and flexibility. Clients can connect in the format that best fits their needs and comfort level, using video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. This flexibility makes it easier to attend sessions consistently and integrate therapy into a busy life. Licensed professionals provide online care, and individuals may change therapists at any time if they want a different fit. Online therapy can be a practical and effective option for people seeking accessible mental health support.
