care. connection. change.

Welcome to A Rising Change Counseling & Consulting

I’m Savannah Helton, LCSW, a clinical social worker & licensed therapist in Missouri with over 15 years of experience in various clinical settings: non-profits, academic medicine, outpatient clinics, inpatient hospital units & emergency rooms.

I founded A Rising Change to provide individual mental health treatment to fellow members of the communities that have always held me: women & queer people.

Therapy with A Rising Change can help if you: ‍ ‍

• desire personal change or need support navigating life, role or identity transitions

• experience depression, anxiety, chronic illness or grief

• feel the hostile sociopolitical climate negatively impacting your health, relationships & your human rights

• feel your relationship to yourself, your sexuality or your identity changing

• are experiencing mood changes during pregnancy or postpartum

• want to explore existential questions: What is my purpose? What do I really want out of life?

It can be difficult to ask for help & to find a therapist when you’re already not doing so well.

I am so glad you are here.
