Hello! Are you feeling ready to get unstuck? Maybe you're holding on to trauma or loss, maybe you're struggling to navigate the stress and changes of life, or maybe you just want to get back to feeling like yourself. Therapy can help.
I understand that sometimes it's difficult to know where to start. We can work together to identify concerns, create a plan for change, and accomplish your therapeutic goals.
My name is Caitlyn Russell (she/her). I am a licensed marriage and family therapist in Oklahoma with 8 years of experience working as a counselor. The therapy I provide is based in client-centered and family systems theories, while integrating other approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness. I am dedicated to helping individuals move through life's challenges to reach their goals, and to create happier and more fulfilling lives.
I currently work with individuals 18 and older. I also work with the LGBTQ+ community.
Education:
