Therapists serving clients in Dougherty, OK

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Oklahoma with 10 years of experience working as a therapist for individuals and families. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting issues, and adjustment issues. I also helped many individuals whose trauma experiences impact their ability to have healthy relationships with family and friends. I received my masters degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Southern Nazarene University. I am a Registered Play Therapist and I have specialized training in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Theraplay (attachment therapy for families), and Adoption Competency. My counseling style is accepting and interactive. I believe that you are the expert of your own life experience, so I don't offer "one size fits all" advice. My feedback will be tailored to your unique situation. My approach is client-centered with a blend of positive psychology, psychodynamic and family systems counseling. I value the contribution neuroscience has made to the field of counseling, and I enjoy helping people understand why their brain works the way it does (and how to change it!). I use EMDR to assist with enhancing coping skills and processing difficult memories. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. It takes courage to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you. I look forward to working with you!

Welcome! I am glad you've chosen to heal. My name is Amy, a licensed psychotherapist & board-certified supervisor with 15+ years of experience. My clinical foundation developed through the formality of advanced training, completion of my graduate education & licensing requirements as well as practice in various behavioral healthcare settings-all diverse in intensity. All standard requirements are underlined by my own love & lifelong passion in helping. Using a natural ability to create and manage empathic connection-I am committed to the same values used in clinical expectations for patients & clients as a daily practice for myself. In addition to providing psychotherapy, I supervise clinicians as they complete licensure. From the appreciation of my own experience of mentorship, I found that my dream to formalize the ability to provide clinical supervision ultimately intensified my love and commitment to the field of psychotherapy. This lead me to my partnership with Betterhelp! I use a diverse approach to work with various organizations, which allows autonomy & independence as an independent practitioner. Most pivotal to my values, I am able to prioritize each client based on their unique, individual needs. Most noted from the feedback of clients, I am attentive, nurturing, knowledgeable and direct in my communication. I find that authenticity is essential to my identity as a human, just as transparency underlies the role of helping. I strive to prioritize the practice of grace & model personal accountability. I use basic expectations of reciprocal respect & mutual acceptance in all relationships, especially with clients. My theoretical style & philosophical approach has evolved through practice using techniques most from Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness & Internal Family Systems. Just as continued education is vital, clinical techniques vary on the goals and needs of each client. Other background details & techniques used are listed below. Specialized training includes: Certified in the treatment of ED patients, direct leadership of clinicians through treatment of eating disorders as well as Trauma-Focused CBT. Membership in the National Board for Certified Counselors & American Counseling Association.

I strive to navigate all relationships using reciprocal trust & mutual respect. Through this, I believe attachments can be repaired, rebuilt and transformed. Many of my clients identify through the healing of unresolved childhood trauma, some deconstruct the toxicity of family dysfunction & learn to manage symptoms or conquer their own addiction! *My Role as a Therapist: I have a unique responsibility to challenge clients in their identified patterns of toxicity. Using techniques like supportive encouragement and confrontation, we dismantle irrational beliefs to help clients discover their own empowerment. This growth process allows for the individual practical application in their own lifelong process of healing! Fundamental elements like the completion of my undergraduate and graduate education, advanced guidance of supervision resulting in 15 years of clinical experience as a licensed practitioner resulted in the foundation necessary to provide therapy to others. Through this required structure, I have been able to accomplish my dreams starting with out in schools, community agencies, therapeutic day treatment, crisis stabilization, residential facilities - often varying in intensity. Working primarily with teenagers, families, then later individual adults allowed me the maturity and completion of more than a decade of motherhood and sobriety-two of my most significant of my roles. *The Magic of Therapy: Using the structure of standard practice and evidence-based technique; only licensed therapists possess the exclusive legal responsibility, training and experience combined with ethical ability to provide safe, legitimate medical treatment. Verifiable benefit has been shown with the commitment of practice with a licensed practitioner.
