About Ronnie
Ronnie Studie is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Missouri with 11 years of experience. He works with adults on stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, depression, and coping with life changes. He also addresses related concerns such as communication problems, codependency, divorce and separation, and issues tied to caregiving and fatherhood.
His background includes clinical leadership, mental health counseling, and substance use treatment. He has worked with people who face co-occurring mental health and substance use challenges. That experience shapes how he plans sessions and prioritizes safety and stabilization when needed.
In sessions, he focuses on practical work. He listens, helps clarify goals, and builds step-by-step plans to manage symptoms and improve day-to-day functioning. Conversations cover coping skills, relapse prevention for substance concerns, handling major life transitions, and strategies for reducing overwhelm.
He describes his style as collaborative and aims to be straightforward. People can expect direct discussion of patterns that get in the way, and concrete suggestions to try between appointments. Progress is tracked through goals you set together.

Evidence-based approaches and how they work online
Ronnie works with commonly used evidence-based techniques that focus on clear skills and problem solving. One approach emphasizes learning and practicing coping skills to reduce anxiety and depression symptoms; this includes breath work, scheduling pleasant activities, and breaking problems into smaller steps. Another approach focuses on substance use recovery and relapse prevention by identifying triggers, creating safety plans, and building routines that support sobriety.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. He will talk with you about your goals, test methods, and adjust the plan based on what helps. The process is collaborative and goal-oriented, with regular check-ins to see what is working.
Confirm current session options before booking since formats are not specified in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments around school, shifts, or commute times. It also allows shorter check-ins when time is limited, or phone sessions when bandwidth is low. Ask about the session formats offered so you can pick the option that best fits your schedule and needs.
