Robert Skuy
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. As a LCSW I am licensed to provide family and individual therapy. I have been a licensed therapist for 7 years. Some of my previous jobs have been teacher, working with developmentally disabled adults for 15 yeas. I also have worked for the State of Oklahoma in Adult Protection Services, Developmental Disabilities and Child Welfare. I have worked with individuals and families who have been involved with Child Welfare investigations. Some of my experiences have been working with individuals with depression, anxiety, emotional and physical abuse, relationship issues. My style is warm and non judgmental. I feel labels limit us but my treatment style can be adjusted to your individual needs. I have used Cognitive Behavioral, EMDR, DBT and even Play therapy and yes even adults can benefit from this. I attend trainings and even at my age I enjoy learning new treatment types. I have enjoyed recently learning about Mindfulness. Mindfulness is as old as the hills. This philosophy or life style has lead me to be more productive recently. I know how difficult it is to reach out for help. By reaching out you are now prepared to work on the issues which are preventing you from enjoying a more rewarding life. Sometimes you feel better just to have someone who will listen to you without judgement and offer occasional advice to help you deal with conflicts. Now you have reached out I look forward to help develop an individual treatment plan and working with you to overcome the problems that have caused you to reach out. *** Please note I do not provide Christian based therapy and I do not identify as Christian in my spiritual beliefs. I do not provide Christian or spiritual based services that include Bible wisdom and prayer.

Lawrence Losoncy
I am licensed by the state of Oklahoma as a marriage and family therapist. I can help people in their families and in their relationships even with only one person doing the session. You would take home and share the insights and guidance as to what to do that would help. I work also with parents and caregivers of troubled children, including children on the Autism Spectrum. I have six recently published books available on Amazon related to these issues: The One Week Manager (working at home stress free), Those First Six Years (Developmental Psychology, skills children need to develop) a book on Marriage called The 7th Contract; Healing from Spiritual and Reglious Wounds; a workbook fo couples called Beyond the Vows; and a novel: The End of North America: a meteoroligist saves the world from doomsday. I have been doing therapy for 45 years, am a AAMFT Fellow, have worked with a tribe for six years in Oklahoma as the Indian Child Welfare Director. I listen to you, tell you what I think about it, make suggestions and recommendations. If that makes sense to you we would then make a plan of action that you believe is helpful. I have done a great deal of work with people wounded spiritually or by religion, and with single parents.

I have been providing counseling for about 25 years. I worked my first 10 years with the elderly population. For the past 15 years I have worked with all age ranges in a variety of areas. I meet my clients where they are, using Client Centered focus, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, including Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (cause & effect) of behaviors. I also use EFIT (Emotionally Focused Individual Therapy) to assist with trauma.

I believe as a therapist it is important to be very interactive with my clients and offer an environment that is safe and conducive to sharing information openly. I regularly practice mindfulness meditation and encourage my clients to engage in said practice as part of our work together when possible. I have found it to be personally significant in my life and the practice has much to offer for all ages. In October 2024 I moved to Chiang Mai, Thailand in order to continue my training in mindfulness. I have been to Thailand many times and practiced my meditation skills in a variety of settings such as Buddhist monastery's and various workshop opportunities. I believe this environment gives me the time and skills to provide the best possible services to the clients that I serve

In addition to my M.S., LPC, I hold an A.S. in Behavioral Science, a B.S. in Psychology, and a second M.S. in Psychology. I have ample experience working with individuals ranging in age from early childhood into the elder population.

I also have vast experience in helping clients process trauma and abuse, develop and strengthen motivation, self-esteem, confidence, self-efficacy, personal empowerment and growth mindset; helping clients improve their capacity to cope, adapt, and adjust to life changes. The most important element in my approach is the lived experience I bring to this table. I have experienced multiple adversities; similar to those endured by many clients. Likewise, I've done much and continue to do the work necessary in healing from those adversities. Therefore, it is incredibly important that I create an open, judgment free and thoroughly objective space; making sure YOU have YOUR safe space to experience your processing as YOU NEED. Taking the first step to healing into a better life quality takes deep courage. I applaud your bravery and I look forward to supporting you in that process.
