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.

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.

The human spirit is more powerful than any drug, and it is that we need to nurture. Lives get off track for many reason, but they can get back on track. I am honored to help. For the last 30 years, I was employed by the Federal Bureau of Prisons. Since 1998, I served as a Drug Treatment Specialist, working with adult male offenders with substance use disorders. The previous 7 years, I was employed in Human Resources and unit management. I left that job due to mandatory retirement. I loved the work because I found it meaningful. Even though the primary focus was a cognitive-behavioral approach to addiction, I counseled our clients regarding grief and loss and relationship issues of all kinds. I enjoyed working with people who had forgotten their own potential and watching them grow and take control of the rest of their lives. EDUCATION Master of Arts in Personnel and Organizational Psychology in 1992, from the University of Central Oklahoma (formerly Central State University) in Edmond, Oklahoma. Bachelor of Business Administration in 1988, from Central State University, Edmond, Oklahoma.

Find a therapist near you in Skedee, Oklahoma

Finding a therapist near you in Skedee, 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. BetterHelp connects you with a licensed therapist through tailored matching, so you can begin care from home or wherever works for you. 

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.

Please note that therapists on BetterHelp do not provide psychiatric medication management or formal diagnoses.

Online therapy vs. in-person therapy in Oklahoma

Online therapy and in-person therapy both connect you with a licensed professional, and the main difference is how you meet. In Oklahoma, online therapy through BetterHelp lets you have sessions by phone, video, or in-app messaging, so you can meet from home or on a schedule that fits your life. In-person therapy takes place at an office and may involve travel and set appointment windows. Online therapy may be more accessible for people with busy schedules, limited transportation, or a preference for a more discreet setting. Both formats can support meaningful progress, so the right choice often comes down to what fits your life.

Finding a therapist that accepts insurance in Oklahoma

BetterHelp accepts insurance through many major insurance plans. Insurance availability and coverage may vary by state, plan, provider network, and therapist availability, and deductible status. Eligible members' average copay is $23 per session.

If you prefer to pay without insurance, BetterHelp subscriptions range from $70 to $100 per week, billed as an alternative way to access the same care, and you can use HSA and FSA funds toward the cost.
