Christine Dicus, LCSW

Christine Dicus is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Missouri with six years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, grief, relationship strain, and life changes. Christine also addresses issues related to adoption and foster care, attachment, women's concerns, and young adult challenges.

She uses client-centered methods alongside cognitive behavioral techniques and motivational interviewing. In practice this looks like listening first, then working together to set clear, practical goals. Sessions focus on skills people can use between meetings and steps they can take toward steadier routines.

Christine has worked in residential programs, jails and prisons, and office settings. That variety informs a flexible, problem-solving approach when standard options aren’t enough. She also brings experience helping people affected by trauma and by involvement in the criminal justice system.

Early sessions tend to be weekly while a plan is formed. Christine helps clients build schedules that fit work and family life, and she checks messages once a day with responses within 24 hours. The subscription-based model she uses can be canceled at any time.

Her practice is practical and focused on everyday changes - improving coping skills, managing urges related to process or sex addiction, handling parenting and adoption stress, and addressing career or self-esteem concerns. People who want straightforward help breaking down problems into manageable steps will find this approach direct and action-oriented.
