Book a therapist or psychiatrist in Edmond, OK covered by Cigna

Hello, my name Emillia Hacker and I have over 10 years of experience in acute crisis intervention, inpatient, and intensive outpatient treatment settings. I am a graduate of Southern Nazarene University with a bachelor's in Family Studies and Gerontology and a master's in counseling psychology. I have a wide breath of experience and specialize in the treatment of symptoms of depression, anxiety, OCD, PTSD, eating disorders, self-harm, chronic suicidal ideations, and substance abuse. I am effective with personality disorders and childhood trauma. I have worked extensively with military and first responders, and their families and I am a STAR trained military provider. I have also worked with First Americans across the state of Oklahoma and carry specialized training in working with addictions and families who have experienced generational trauma.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor based in Oklahoma working with individuals who are navigating stress, anxiety, life transitions, and relationship challenges. Many of my clients are highly functioning on the outside but feel overwhelmed, stuck or uncertain underneath. I provide a supportive, grounded space where you can slow down, sort through what is going on and begin moving forward with clarity. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialogue and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I enjoy helping others gain knowledge and an understanding of themselves; helping manage their thoughts and emotions; gaining peace and improved relationships in their lives. I am here to support and empower you in that journey.

I believe therapy should feel like a place where you can be yourself without judgment. I work with teens and adults across the lifespan, with particular experience supporting clients as they navigate anxiety, relationships, life transitions, and the challenges that come with change. My background in education has given me a deep understanding of the pressures people face at different stages of life, while my counseling training allows me to support clients in finding greater clarity, confidence, and balance. I strive to create a space that feels comfortable, supportive, and collaborative, while helping clients recognize their strengths and move toward meaningful change.

I believe therapy should feel like a safe, relaxed space where you are in control. My approach is laid back and client-led, allowing you to dictate the direction of your therapy based on what feels most important to you. I don’t come in with a rigid agenda or a one-size-fits-all plan. Instead, I’m here to listen, support, and gently guide you as you work toward the areas of growth and healing you want to focus on. Together, we’ll move at your pace, building insight, skills, and confidence in a way that feels authentic and meaningful to you. Evening and Saturday appointment available.

It takes courage to reach out for help! Showing up that first time may be the hardest part of the journey. Being someone who has sat in that chair, I have a good idea how you are feeling. Being someone who has done her own personal work of therapy and helped hundreds of others with theirs, I also know how much better life can be! Emotional wounds can be heavy. Medication may help, but the feelings can make living feel like swimming with a shot put ball.

I strive to come alongside those struggling to provide support, education and encouragement. I have worked with clients from age 5 to 103, and what I have found to be most important is the connection (or the “fit.”) You need a therapist you can bring your authentic self to. You are hiring me to do a job, to help you think, feel, and behave better. I want that for you, even if it is not me, so never be afraid to interview a few therapists before deciding! After all, if it is me, I will be in your corner and I will challenge you, at the same time. You want to know you chose wisely for yourself.

I help people move from simply coping to genuinely thriving. I hold a Master's in Human Relations with an emphasis in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Oklahoma, along with advanced training in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT). My background spans neurological rehabilitation, residential behavioral health, crisis intervention, and telehealth — and my experience outside of clinical work gives me a grounded, practical understanding of stress, leadership dynamics, and personal growth. I work with adults and youth ages 8 and older, and I'm currently accepting new clients.

Hello! My name is Michelle and I am a licensed professional counselor. I have been working in the mental health field for 11 years. I have worked with individuals and couples experiencing a variety of issues including family conflict, depression and anxiety, stress-related issues, domestic violence, trauma, anger management, communication challenges, self-esteem, and many more. My counseling style is warm , calm and interactive. I believe in treating everyone with respect and compassion.

Many people come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, disconnected from themselves or others, or unsure of how exactly to move forward. Others are navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, family conflict, relationship challenges, or the lasting effects of difficult life experiences. You don't have to face these challenges alone.

As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I provide a safe, supportive space where individuals, couples, and families can heal, grow, and strengthen their relationships. With five years of experience and a passion for ongoing personal and professional growth, my goal is to help you feel understood, empowered, and supported as you create meaningful, lasting change.

My approach is compassionate, practical, and personalized to each client’s goals. I help clients understand the connection between their thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and performance while building skills they can use in everyday life and under pressure.

Depending on your needs, we may work on focus and concentration, visualization and imagery, stress management, performance anxiety, goal-setting, emotional well-being, or recovery from difficult experiences. I also incorporate EMDR when appropriate and tailor our work to help you feel more confident, prepared, and capable both on and off the field.

I was born and raised in Chicago, and my early years were shaped by challenges that taught me resilience, empathy, and the importance of being truly heard. Those experiences didn’t define me, but they deeply influenced my desire to help others express their feelings, identify their emotions, and process their pain with dignity.

With over 14+ years of counseling experience, I bring loyalty, compassion, and a steady presence to every session. I believe in creating a non‐judgment zone where people can show up exactly as they are. My values guide the way I care for clients — with grace, integrity, and a genuine love for people. My eclectic approach allows me to use CBT, behavioral techniques, and other modalities to meet each person’s unique needs.
