Ray-Kowalik Wellness Group in St. Louis MO

Ray-Kowalik Wellness Group in St. Louis MO. You’ve probably had a lot of experiences and relationships in the past, some good and others bad. All too often, it’s difficult to find healing from those bad experiences, though, and it feels like there’s no way to clear your mind and regain your mental wellbeing. Luckily, help is available and waiting for you at the Ray-Kowalik Wellness Group in St. Louis, Missouri.

About. Even when she was young, Elizabeth Kowalik knew she wanted to help people and make an impact on their lives. Elizabeth realized she could always talk to anyone and easily found common ground with lots of different types of people. At her core, Elizabeth desired to help people feel like they belonged. Elizabeth’s background led her to the mental health field, and today she’s proud to assist people in breaking free from the mental challenges they’re dealing with. As Elizabeth likes to put it, the counselors at Ray-Kowalik Wellness Group are providing mental health care “For real people, with real people.”

Specialties. At Ray-Kowalik Wellness Group, their caring and experienced counselors specialize in many areas, including trauma, high conflict relationships, and substance abuse. Don’t worry: you’ll find your fit at Ray-Kowalik Wellness Group!

Authentic. At Ray-Kowalik Wellness Group, keeping it real is their foundation. Actually, Carl Jung—founder of analytical psychology—had this advice for therapists: “Know all the theories, master all the techniques, but as you touch a human soul, be just another human soul.” For clients, it can be hard to be real, especially since people who’ve experienced trauma usually have a hard time feeling understood. If this sounds like you, here’s a piece of good news: Elizabeth breaks that down and gives her clients a space where they can be their authentic selves. She’s built a place where it feels safe to do the work of healing. 

Is it easy to be authentic? Elizabeth has created a space where it is, and all because she’s her authentic self, too. In fact, Elizabeth might be wearing comfy yoga pants and sipping a diet coke during your session. She may even swear (just a little!). That’s because she’s being the real her, and all while inviting you to be real, too. In the middle of all this authenticity, though, Elizabeth remains serious and professional about the work she does, creating a balance that helps her clients find healing. 

Welcome. Elizabeth is fully aware that coming to counseling takes courage. That’s why she’ll make you feel welcome and cared for, 100% of the time! A lot of Elizabeth’s work centers on reviving a loving relationship with yourself, which makes the conflicts go away. But until you’ve learned how to be in a loving relationship with you, the team at Ray-Kowalik Wellness Group boasts a welcoming vibe and atmosphere that fosters this growth. 

EMDR Specialist. EMDR—short for Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprogramming—is a powerful tool that can resolve attachment and core belief trauma. Maybe it wasn’t a car accident that inflicted trauma, but the fact that you just weren’t hugged enough. The bottom line is that there doesn’t need to be a “villain” in your story. The counselors won’t “slam” your parents, because your parents probably had the best of intentions and were just misinformed by the “professionals” or pop psychology that were in vogue during your growing-up years. 

So, how does EMDR help with trauma? Well, it moves the traumatic memory from the right side of the brain (where it can affect the whole body) to the left side of the brain (where it can be properly stored away). By tucking those memories into the mental boxes they should have been stored in a long time ago, clients are able to find relief and healing from their trauma. 

Tailored. At Ray-Kowalik Wellness Group, sessions are tailored to Y-O-U! Just as the issues you’re facing are unique, the team recognizes that you and your needs are one-of-a-kind too. That’s why Elizabeth has experience with various therapy models and can determine what will work best for you.
