Valerie Keller Gates
I am a licensed professional counselor in Oklahoma. I received a Bachelor of Science in Family Studies and Gerontology from Southern Nazarene University and a Master of Human Relations with an emphasis in Licensed Professional Counseling from the University of Oklahoma. I retired from the Oklahoma Air National Guard in 2024 as an Equal Opportunity Advisor. I have experience with adults, families, and groups. I have worked with those struggling with mild to severe mental illness, as well as individuals who are struggling with issues including depression, grief & loss, abuse/neglect, addictions with dual diagnosis, behavioral problems, bipolar disorder, and parenting problems. I adapt my counseling style to each individual. However, in my experience, I have noticed that clients are more adaptable to me utilizing a counseling style of a client-focused approach. I believe that it is important to meet the client where they currently are in their journey of life and work from that point. I am a very transparent, honest, caring individual in my day-to-day life, and I bring that trait to each session with the belief that, in doing so, the client feels more at ease with being honest as issues and challenges are being processed. I believe everyone deserves respect and compassion as well as the opportunity to have added support when needed. My approach/style combines cognitive-behavioral and client-centered….just to name a few. A client’s treatment plan and the direction of the sessions will be tailored to meet the individual needs. "Whenever you find yourself doubting how far you can go, just remember how far you have come".

Are anxiety, self-doubt, or relationship problems making it difficult to feel like yourself? Perhaps you find yourself overthinking, feeling overwhelmed, struggling with confidence, or having difficulty communicating your needs in your relationships. You may know something needs to change, but aren't sure how to move forward. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with more than 20 years of experience helping individuals navigate anxiety, stress, depression, self-esteem and confidence concerns, communication difficulties, and relationship challenges. I believe you are the expert on your own story. My role is to provide a supportive, nonjudgmental environment where we can explore what's happening, identify patterns that may be holding you back, and develop practical ways to create meaningful change. I take a warm, collaborative approach and draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused techniques. I tailor therapy to you rather than expecting you to fit into a particular approach. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, trying to rebuild your confidence, or wanting healthier and more fulfilling relationships, you don't have to figure it all out by yourself. Taking the first step toward therapy takes courage, and I'm glad you're here.

Deborah Tommey
As a licensed therapist (Licensed Professional Counselor), I obtained my Master of Counseling from Oklahoma State University/Tulsa, Oklahoma. My practice includes adults. Specialties I offer, and am experienced and well-trained in, are anxiety, depression, grief/loss, dementia/cognitive impairment, trauma, and stress-related disorders. Other areas of focus include sexuality, LGBTQ concerns, hoarding disorder, and other behavioral health interests. I also offer extensive knowledge of the aging population and caregivers. Although I recognize that all clients are unique individuals and that different theories work differently for everyone, I strive to assess clients and determine which type of therapy will be most successful. Primarily, I practice Person-Centered Therapy and incorporate some Solution-Focused, Gestalt, and Existential techniques. I start with an optimistic view of all clients, providing a positive, supportive, and comfortable atmosphere/conversation. I offer an empathic outlook, working to connect with you. I am hopeful my clients can feel autonomy, and I also ask, “What difference or change do you want to achieve”? I believe taking a look at your meaning in life can be insightful many times, too. I also offer mindfulness techniques when appropriate, as I do credit holistic approaches as important for us emotionally and physically. I have been successful in facilitating support groups for various populations and numerous diagnoses, as well as training and education of other professionals regarding many Behavioral Health concerns. I prefer to work with adults aged 20 or older. Phone and video are astonishing ways to provide counseling sessions; however, I am not so keen on live chat. I do use the messaging for in between sessions, if there is something of importance you want to share or let me know. I will do the same. I hope to facilitate and support you through this process and towards your goal in seeking therapy.

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.

Find a therapist near you in Oglesby, Oklahoma
Finding a therapist near you in Oglesby, Oklahoma starts with matching to a licensed professional who fits your needs, schedule, and goals. Oklahoma is home to people with diverse mental health needs across urban, suburban, and rural communities, which can make it challenging to find care.

The network includes over 30,000 licensed therapists globally, and over 4 million people have used BetterHelp to find support through online therapy. During matching, 93% of user preferences are met, which helps you connect with a therapist suited to what you are looking for. Whether you are searching for help with anxiety, trauma, affordable or insurance covered therapy, weekend or flexible scheduling, or virtual sessions, you can find a therapist and get started when you are ready.
Why work with a licensed therapist near you?
Working with a licensed therapist near you gives you access to professional mental health support from someone trained to help you understand and manage what you are going through. A licensed therapist can offer evidence-based approaches, a steady space to talk, and guidance tailored to your situation. In Oklahoma, online therapy can make that care more accessible, since sessions happen from home or wherever you are, without the need to travel to an office. This can help if your schedule is full, if travel is difficult, or if you simply prefer a more discreet setting. You can learn more about what a therapist does on the therapist role page.
Online therapy can be especially helpful for people living across Oklahoma, where access to in-person mental health care may vary by location.
What concerns can therapists help with?
Therapists can help with a wide range of concerns, including anxiety and stress, depression, trauma and PTSD, self-esteem and identity, people-pleasing and fear of rejection, insomnia and racing thoughts, workplace stress and burnout, substance use, parenting and co-parenting stress, grief and loss, and relationship and family challenges. Therapists on BetterHelp may draw on approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), depending on your needs and goals. You can explore support for specific concerns on pages such as generalized anxiety disorder, major depressive disorder, posttraumatic stress disorder, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, and eating disorders.

Both formats can support meaningful progress, so the right choice often comes down to what fits your life.
