Hi, I’m Ashley, a Licensed Professional Counselor-Supervisor, National Certified Counselor and Registered Play Therapist passionate about supporting children, teens, adults, and families through life’s challenges with greater understanding, connection, and confidence.

My clinical background is deeply rooted in infant and early childhood mental health, attachment, trauma, emotional regulation, and strengthening relationships within families. Over the years, my work has expanded to include adolescents and adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, relationship challenges, parenting stress, burnout, and feeling disconnected from themselves or others.

One area I am especially passionate about is supporting individuals during pregnancy, postpartum, and the early parenting years. I feel deeply called to support mothers and parents as they navigate the emotional, relational, and identity shifts that can come with bringing new life into the world.

I believe healing happens when people feel safe, seen, and genuinely understood. My goal is to create a space where you can show up exactly as you are—without judgment, pressure, or the need to have it all figured out.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor dedicated to supporting teens and adults through life's challenges with compassion, authenticity, and evidence-based care. I am passionate about empowering individuals to navigate everyday struggles, build emotional awareness, and develop tools for healthier living. Whether someone is facing anxiety, trauma, depression, or suicidal thoughts, I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where they can be seen, heard, and supported. My mission is to walk alongside clients as they reclaim their voice, build confidence, and move towards a more hopeful and fulfilling future.

Therapy to restore pleasure and emotional safety after sexual assault and other trauma for adults and their partners. I specialize in three areas: sex & intimacy, trauma & emotional regulation, and anxiety disorders such as OCD and BPD. I have extensive experience supporting individuals and partners experiencing intimacy challenges related to desire discrepancy, neurodivergence, and partners hoping to rebuild healthy sexual relationships. I strive to provide care in a space that deeply honors identity and lived experience.

I focus on the wholeness of a person emotionally, physically, and spiritually. If my clients prefer, I can provide an effortless Biblical approach. I also enjoy using mindfulness along with CBT in sessions as well. Personally, I enjoy social gatherings in my city, singing in choir, spending time with family and friends and learning about random health topics. I am a mother of two little guys and I have been married for 8 years.

If you’re here, chances are you’re carrying a lot—responsibilities, expectations, and maybe a quiet sense that something needs to shift. You don’t have to keep doing it all the hard way.

My approach is practical, supportive, and focused on real-life change. Together, we’ll uncover the strengths you already have and build tools you can actually use—so you feel more confident, less overwhelmed, and more in control of your life.

You won’t just talk about your stress—you’ll learn how to manage it. You’ll leave our work together with a clear plan for self-care, stronger boundaries, and a deeper connection to what truly matters to you. My goal is for you to feel better, yes—but also to live better, with more ease, clarity, and fulfillment.

Hello there! Congrats on the brave choice you have made to reach out for help! I have a passion for helping people find healing and connection in their lives and relationships. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Oklahoma and a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor in the state of Kansas and have over 12 years experience serving hundreds of individuals and couples to help them find healing and live their best lives.

My therapy work is my purpose. I love what I do.

Individual Well Being, which includes stress and anxiety reduction, navigating life transitions, finding coping strategies and hope and meaning during grief and loss and working through trauma. Relationship Repair and Connection using couples and family therapy, parent child therapy and repairing sibling relationships. Creating What You Most Desire through discovering what gets in the way and then creating steps to get where you want to go..

My training as a Licensed Marital and Family Therapist and a Licensed Professional Counselor, along with being a Registered Play Therapist gives me the best back ground to assist you in these areas. My Masters in Family Relations and Child Development and Post Graduate Work in Human Relations serve as a strong foundation. My professional training in the Gottman Method and Johnson's Emotionally Focused Therapy is very helpful, as well as being a Prepare Enrich Facilitator for Assessment of Couple Relationships.

My most recent intensive training program was to become a Certified Clinical EFT Practitioner. This is a powerful mind body approach. The lay public calls it "tapping".

I am in private practice focusing on all of the above, doing in person and online virtual therapy. And in the past I worked in the non profit world in a similar capacity, as a therapist and supervisor.

I currently hold supervisory status to supervise LPC Candidates and Registered Play Therapist Candidates.

Dedicated Therapist, Educator, and Lifelong Learner

My path to therapy wasn’t a straight line—it was a journey of persistence, family, and a commitment to helping others navigate their complex stories.

Born and raised in Tulsa, I earned a Psychology degree from Christian Brothers University before returning to Oklahoma to serve as an educator. With a second degree in Special Education focused on Emotional Disturbances, I spent years in the classroom supporting children and families through unique emotional challenges.

While I always felt called to therapy, I prioritized my roles as a mother and teacher in a small ranching community. Following a divorce, I turned that transition into a new beginning. As a single parent, I balanced full-time work and night school, graduating with my Master’s degree and a 4.0 GPA.

Real Experience for Real Life I bring clinical expertise in CBT and Solution-Focused Therapy, but also a wealth of lived experience. Today, I am remarried in a vibrant blended family with eight children and three grandkids. I intimately understand the dynamics of divorce, blended families, and the balancing act of personal growth. My family is my world, and this groundedness allows me to show up for you with authentic empathy and practical wisdom.

Hello! My name is Elizabeth Derr and I am located here in OKC. Currently I offer ADHD testing services in office and telehealth therapy services. I have been a therapist for over 12 years and work best with neurodivergent adults, anxiety related disorders as well as depression/mood disorders.

I am a licensed mental health counselor in Florida and a licensed professional counselor in Oklahoma. I work with clients of all ages who are experiencing stress and anxiety. I have more than 10 years experience working with families and caregivers experiencing the loss and changes that come with aging or a dementia diagnosis. I am trained as a support group leader for the Alzheimer's Association.

You've been looking for a therapist who will get it. Who won't need you to explain, defend, or translate. Whether you're navigating anxiety, depression, or the particular weight of figuring out who you are in a world that doesn't always make that easy, you deserve a space where all of you is welcome. I'm an LCSW with 8 years in mental health and a proud member and ally of the LGBTQIA+ community. I work with adults dealing with anxiety, depression, identity, and the everyday experience of just being your full self. My goal is to help you build toward where you actually want to be, at a pace that works for you.
