Therapists in Tulsa, OK

If you are an adolescent and/or young adult woman who struggles with eating disorders/disordered eating, poor body image, or a poor relationship with your body and/or food, you have found the right place to receive supportive healing. As you may know, it is never about our food or our body, but something much bigger. It takes a safe and compassionate space for you to be vulnerable and share about your past experiences that have lead to your current situation, which is my goal as a therapist, to provide you that space. I view the therapeutic and client relationship as a partnership where we can work together to accomplish your goals.

My values are: joy, laughter, relationship, peace, and compassion. I believe we are all created for connection and purpose. There are any number of things that can get in the way of us experiencing life the way we had hoped. Through therapy, we will explore what it means to you to feel relief and identify a plan to nurture the values you have for your life. My perspective is across the lifespan and I treat all ages. I am specially trained as an Infant Mental Health Specialist, and provide treatment for even the youngest in our community. Babies to adults, we all deserve to have safety, security, kindness, and care.

As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I view my client through a systemic lens. I am always mindful of relational patterns even when working with individuals. I enjoy helping my clients process through life events and gain new skills to find holistic healing. I work with teenagers and adults with mental and relational issues. I have helped adults navigate personal traumas as well as relationships with their children and spouses. Teenagers find comfort in the confidentiality of therapy as I assist them to see their parents' viewpoint differently and create a mutual relationship of understanding between parent and child.

If I were to ask you to name all the things you LOVE...how long would it take you to name YOURSELF? Do you feel like your not in control of your thoughts, feelings, and actions? Like your brain has a mind of it's own? Feel so tired you didn't want to get out of bed? Keep forgetting your keys, lose your train of thought, or can't seem to focus on tasks? Some days it's so bad you don't recognize yourself in the mirror or in pictures. Hopelessness becomes your daily go to feeling. You either want to sleep all day or eat everything in sight. Then comes feeling like a failure and the desire to just give up and run away. There is hope.

We all need help sometimes! If you are looking for help in managing the stress of life; maybe you have a child or teen you are concerned about; maybe you are struggling with anxiety or depression; or maybe you just feel like you could use someone to talk to, then I'd love to work with you! I take a holistic approach to therapy by looking at all areas of wellness in one's life and how we can work together to make improvements across the board. I develop strong relationships with my clients to identify your strengths and use those to overcome challenges, develop more positive coping skills, and live a healthier, happier life.

You are important and what you are feeling is normal! You do not have to go through this alone. The first step is the hardest, and you have taken that. Therapy can be an important component to working through the difficult times. Whether you are experiencing anxiety, a loss of job or relationship, or to work through a personal trauma, I can help you.

I help people that are seeking results fast. People have a desire to become something different and what most people don’t believe is that they have the ability to do so.

I am currently accepting new clients! I believe that therapy is a professional relationship and a personal relationship. Finding the right therapist is important for your growth! Therapy is hard and I am here to help support you on your journey - whatever that looks like. Some days it can be laughing, other days could be crying, yelling, or using the occasional cuss word to release our emotions. I work with attachment-based issues, complex trauma, chronic pain/illness, and women's issues.

As a therapist I am committed to helping individuals find hope in even the most hopeless situations. My goal is to help you be the best version of yourself, to feel comfortable in the uncomfortable and build healthy positive relationships. Through the power of the therapeutic relationship, I can help you identify positive changes and create new thought patterns to help you accomplish your goals and be the person you have always wanted to be. I believe that making positive changes to improve your life may be difficult, but it will be one of the most rewarding gifts an individual can offer themselves.

Trauma, loss, circumstances, and relationships of all sorts can deeply impact us. Many life situations can lead us to seeking help or just a safe place to vent, sift, and collaborate. Regardless of what may lead us to a counselor, the need and goal is to feel better, begin the healing journey, repair/grow/maintain relationships, and/or alleviate emotional and physical triggers.

Now accepting new clients. Do you have a repeating pattern of difficulty maintaining satisfying relationships? Are you struggling to gain freedom from memories of a painful past? Have you been feeling stuck in cycles of conflict with your partner? Regardless of what your stressors are, you are capable of reaching your emotional potential, and living a fulfilled life through obtaining balance and peace. I work with a range of issues, including trauma, anxiety, relationship issues, racial identity issues, depression, and other mental health stressors.

My ideal client is someone navigating a busy, demanding life seeking balance and fulfillment. They may feel stuck in certain areas like career growth, personal relationships, or health. They crave clarity, purpose, and tangible progress. They want to reclaim joy in everyday life, prioritize self-care without guilt, and achieve meaningful goals that align with their values. Ultimately, they seek guidance to unlock their potential, build resilience, and create a life that brings them genuine happiness and satisfaction. I also love working with youth! 15 years exp. as teacher/principal. I understand common issues and solutions.

I see myself as a navigator. You are the captain. You decide where you want to go. I may have a few good maps to help you get there. It's your boat. You decide how fast or slow. Let me help you build a sturdy ship. So that no matter what stormy seas you find yourself in, you know how to rely on the resources within you. And around you. And how to keep them strong. We are indeed complex creatures. We need to stay in touch by learning about the many ways to find peace and understanding about what things mean. And what we can do about it. And you don't have to do it alone. I'll walk with you.

Whether you find yourself struggling to navigate through personal relationships, facing professional setbacks, or battling with the challenges of mental health issues, the weight of these burdens can feel overwhelming. Past traumas only perpetuate the overwhelm. It's entirely understandable to feel as though you've exhausted all avenues looking for relief, only to find yourself in what feels like a constant cycle of hardship. In the words of Brene Brown, “owning our story can be hard but not nearly as difficult as spending our lives running from it.”
