Does managing your health feel like a full-time job?
Online Mental Health Therapy for Teens & Adults in Missouri
Living with chronic illness & pain is exhausting.
Hi, I’m Lindsey Mann, PLPC. I’m a mental health therapist who lives with chronic illness and pain, too.
I know the grief that comes with living in an unpredictable body. Grief in the small moments when you have to cancel because you’re in a pain flare…again. It’s a heavy thing to carry.
I help teens and adults navigate the emotional weight and mental load of living with chronic illness and pain. Together, we can create a life that feels meaningful, even if your health doesn’t change.
Chronic Illness & Pain Affect More Than Just the Body
If you’re like many of my clients, you may also be experiencing:
Ongoing anxiety about your health or the future – Struggling to plan because you never know what knew symptom your body will uncover.
Unrelenting Grief – Being hit by wave after wave of grief with new losses every day.
Relationship strain – Struggling to balance asking for help, while also not wanting to be a burden.
Increased Isolation – Feeling like no one understands and slowly losing support over time.
Loss of self – Feeling like a shell of who you used to be, unsure how to get back to yourself.
Depression – Feeling numb, lost, and tired of carrying this heaviness.
Living with chronic illness and pain is exhausting, but you don’t have to carry it alone.

How to Get Started
Step 1: Start with a Discovery Call
We’ll begin with a free 15-minute consultation to talk about what you're experiencing and what you're looking for in therapy. This is a chance for us to get to know each other and see if I’m the right fit to support your journey.
Step 2: Begin Your Personalized Therapy Sessions
If it feels like a good fit, we’ll schedule your first 50-minute virtual session. We’ll get to know each other, talk about what’s been weighing on you, and explore what you’d like to feel different in your everyday life.
Step 3: Experience Growth at Your Own Pace
We’ll work at a pace that makes room for your health, your energy levels, and what matters to you. We’ll check in about what’s helping and adjust as your needs change. My hope is that you feel supported in creating a life you love, no matter what your health looks like.

That’s exactly what the free discovery call is for. We’ll talk about what you’re looking for, and if it feels like a good fit, we’ll move forward. If not, I’m happy to refer you to someone who might be a better match.
