A Personal Touch in a Peaceful Private Setting

There is a lot of telehealth counseling available out there these days (and I offer that, too), but my All Things New Counseling trademark has specialized in the personal touch of a comfortable, compassionate in-person approach since 2009.

I treat a lot of complex trauma, which is all about healing relationship and attachment wounds, and I have found that doing this work in person is especially effective. Doing this work in partnership with my certified therapy dog, Dewey, is even better!

At the end of 2025 I set out to create an immersive healing experience by designing and building a therapeutic healing haven from the ground up with every detail chosen intentionally to promote a sense of calm, safety and comfort for healing the nervous system.

Welcome!

All Things New is wonderfully and discreetly located in a quiet, private location just off the beaten path in the heart of Nixa, MO.

There is an accessible parking spot right at the front door for those who would benefit from this accommodation, and there is plenty of additional parking on site just steps from the front entrance.

As soon as you enter the driveway you will be greeted by different varieties of trees, shrubs and flowers.

Everything is intentionally chosen to contribute to a grounding sensory experience.

Soothing music will greet you as you approach the front walkway.

You are welcome to enjoy the porch rocker outdoors while you wait for your appointment if you’d like.

Notice the butterflies and bumblebees dancing around the flowers enjoying their delightful pollinating party.

All Things New Counseling lobby with tweed sofa, wooden coffee table, armchair with pillow, window with vertical blinds, wooden shelf with coffee supplies, and wall decorations including a clock and floral arrangement.

Clients regularly comment on how peaceful the lobby is with all of its natural light, soothing music, and pleasant smells.

As an established client, you will receive a security code to enter the building, and the door will auto-lock behind you.

Enjoy a moment to pause in the peaceful private lobby!

The windows may be open to let the outdoors in if the weather is agreeable.

If you don’t care for the scent from essential oil diffuser, feel free to switch it off. We only use oils with high quality purity testing and calming scents, but preferences can vary. We don’t want you sitting in a space where you don’t appreciate the smell!

two wooden armchairs with beige cushions, a white modern chair, and a round wooden coffee table. There is a beige area rug, a wooden side table with a lamp, and large windows with vertical blinds allowing sunlight to fill the room. Decor includes a wall-mounted wooden tree art, a small shelf with fall flowers, and cushions with decorative pillows.

Help yourself to a drink or a snack!

You can’t miss our courtesy bar when you walk in! You’ll find a variety of hot and cold drink options and snacks.

Therapy is hard work—let’s do whatever we can to make it a little easier!

There is also an accessible restroom in the hallway to the left as you enter the building—discreet, yet easy to find.

All Things New Counseling snack and beverage station with wooden cabinets, coffee machine, cups, and snacks in a cozy kitchen corner.

If you don’t see me or Dewey yet, grab a seat and relax in the lobby or on the porch—We will greet you as soon as we are available!

Dewey is my 22 pound Cavalier King Charles Spaniel therapy dog. He LOVES to greet our guests in the lobby, and no one could possibly be greeted better than with his delighted wiggles. Dewey has a wonderful way of bringing levity to the space and putting people at ease. He also thinks everyone has come just to see him—and some of you probably actually have!

My Therapy Room

Kristin McIntyre's therapy room with a beige couch, brown leather chair, area rug, and various wall decorations. There is a sliding glass door with vertical blinds and a ceiling fan.

Comfort is important when you are doing the hard work of therapy.

You are welcome to put your feet up, curl up with a blanket, sip a hot (or cold) drink, or love on Dewey, and let me know if there are any adjustments I can make to the space to help you feel more comfortable.

Kristin McIntyre's therapy room with beige walls, a tweed couch with soft fur and patterned pillows, a round chair, a brown leather ottoman with toys, a bookcase, a fireplace, and wall art. There is a door with frosted glass and window blinds.

Notice the fuzzy throw on the corner of the couch. It is soooooooo soft and cuddly. Feel free to pull it into your lap or wrap it around your shoulders.

Warmth and softness signal safety to the nervous system.

The therapy work may be hard, but the space and company you experience with me won’t be!

Feet up on a brown leather ottoman with legs crossed, wearing jeans and white sneakers, in a living room with a patterned rug, small wooden tray, TV on a rustic table, brown armchair, and wall decorations.

Heck, yeah- put your feet up!

I chose this ottoman-table for that very purpose!

Feel free to enjoy a sour candy. Intensely sour tastes are grounding and interrupt anxiety.

You’ll find my therapy space full of ways to practice regulating your nervous system!

Patio Therapy!

Yes- that’s a thing at my office! If you’d like to engage in “patio therapy,” we’ll just take it outside! The yard is fully fenced for privacy.

Nature is a wonderful resource for grounding the nervous system.

Watch the squirrels outsmart the bird feeder (every single time!).

Watch Dewey chase the squirrels as they run along the top of the fence, his floppy ears flying behind him as he tries with all his might.

(Don’t worry- there’s not a chance that he will ever catch them!)

My patio is also a wonderful space to practice calming breathwork by blowing bubbles.

And it’s hard not to feel a little lift in your spirit when you are surrounded by bubbles!

Pick a juicy strawberry!

Stick your toes in the soft green grass!
