Our Therapists...

Elizabeth Stallone-Lowder founded Sage Tree Therapy, LLC in 2012 with a focus on supporting new moms affected by birth and pregnancy trauma. She specializes in Trauma, including postpartum mood disorders and all perinatal mental health issues. These include fertility challenges, infant and pregnancy loss, postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, high-risk pregnancy, and moms on bed rest. 

​

She's developed an E-Course and written a Workbook in 2022, both titled "The Sweet Spot of Self-Care for Moms: How Sleep, Food, Energy and Sex influence our self-care". My Weekly Pages: A week-by-week planning and reflection prompt journal was released the same year.

 

Elizabeth  believes in helping moms become more authentic and self-compassionate by becoming more mindful of their feelings, values and core beliefs. She emphasizes strengths-based approaches for all of her clients, honoring the fact that everyone is an expert in their own life. All of Elizabeth's clinical interventions focus on the importance of self-care and empowerment. She knows you are the BEST mom for your children and understands there is no such thing as perfect parenting. (Good news — our kids don't even need us to be perfect!)

 

Specialized therapies include Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), The Daring Way™, visual art techniques, Trauma Recovery and Empowerment Model (TREM),  healthy sexuality / sex education, dream interpretation, and therapeutic journaling with a cognitive-behavioral filter. Elizabeth also offers EMDR (Level II). ​

​

To improve moms’ lives on a macro level and better equip her region with more professionals trained in Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorders (PMAD), Elizabeth co-founded Heartland PMAD Consultants, LLC with Kim Martino-Sexton. As two experts in the field of perinatal peer support and mental health, Elizabeth and Kim train healthcare providers and social service agencies on how to help perinatal patients get the best care possible.

 

Elizabeth is also a former adjunct professor of Social Work at the Brown School of Social Work at Washington University, serves on the Advisory Board of Herzing University's MSW Program and the Hyperemesis Education & Research Foundation as well as a co-founder of HGMoms on Facebook. 

​​

Elizabeth's love for visual art and honoring intuition is combined via Sage Tree Art, where she specializes in mixed media portraits by commission. She also hosts classes several times a year, guiding participants in making meaningful art and learning more about themselves in the process.

Graduating from New York University with her Masters in Social Work, Holly spent significant time in diverse clinical settings working with mothers, their partners, their children, and other adults across New York City and in St. Louis. Holly’s focus remains perinatal mental health care with special attention to substance use disorders in women throughout the life cycle and with adults needing additional resources in supporting their partners who are becoming mothers, and themselves, in their transition to parenthood.

 

With a background in psychoanalysis and motivational interviewing, Holly approaches each client with deep empathy, compassion, intrigue, and - above all - awareness of each individual’s expertise in their own life and experience. Being a guide in the therapeutic endeavor is the approach she takes with each client, regardless of position within their family and society, at large.

Prior to becoming a therapist, Holly spent time in the nonprofit industry, fighting for LGBTQIA rights and environmental advocacy. She also held tenure at a natural foods corporation providing education and advocacy for plant-based living and an empowered lifestyle movement. Lastly, she is a certified yoga instructor who believes in the integration of mind and body as the best way to find wholeness, and brings this fusion into her therapy practice.

As a mom of three young boys, Holly brings an empathic energy to her work with parents,
knowing how difficult these years can be even while also potentially being some of the most joyful. This shared experience has proven to be a strength and a knowledge on which she draws in her work with mothers, partners, and children across her therapeutic practice.
