I’m Ariel Cross, a Licensed Professional Counselor in Oklahoma. My goal is to help individuals who struggle with OCD, anxiety, and other difficulties so they can live a healthier, happier life. I work well with individuals who are stressed out, burned out, and have been told they’re “Overthinkers.” My approach meshes well with people who identify as highly anxious but have difficulties with managing their symptoms. I work to create a sense of safety and comfort within session. It’s my goal to be as genuine and understanding as possible to create an area where a person feels comfortable talking about difficult problems.

I practice virtual counseling to provide support for people who have anxiety disorders, which includes anxiety about general life stressors, phobias, panic attacks, and obsessive-compulsive disorder. She uses evidence-based practices to provide new tools and strategies for wellness.
