Anxiety and depression therapists and psychiatrists in Norman, OK

I am a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist in the State of Oklahoma. I am currently employed by Gillispie Counseling Services. Please call 580-736-8102 for appointment information. My focus is "systemic" because I believe all aspects of the environment contribute to the individual. I have a master's level education in Marriage & Family Therapy. I have experience treating children, adolescents, adults, and couples with diverse backgrounds and ranges of concerns.

Hi, I enjoy working with people who are ready to do the work within themselves. Just like gps you say the destination and we'll be on our way.

My name is Lari Smith, and I’ve spent nearly 15 years helping individuals and families navigate life’s challenges and build healthier, more fulfilling lives. I hold multiple graduate‐level degrees, including a Master of Science in Human Resources (2006), a Master’s Certificate in Addiction Counseling (2016), and a Master of Science in Psychological Services (2017). I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Oklahoma and am currently under supervision for my LADC.

Before entering private practice, I worked for the Department of Human Services and later served as a school counselor in rural K–8 schools. These experiences deepened my passion for supporting children, families, and individuals facing complex or overwhelming life circumstances. Today, I work with clients of all ages and have a special appreciation for both children and older adults.

My therapeutic approach is eclectic, but I frequently draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients understand the connection between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. I have experience treating a wide range of concerns, including adjustment disorders, anxiety, depression, child sexual abuse, PTSD, Borderline Personality Disorder, and other mental health challenges. I also bring personal insight into chronic pain after experiencing a serious car accident in 2017 that resulted in multiple broken bones.

I currently practice in a rural Oklahoma community and am accepting new clients. I offer virtual sessions and accept insurance, with a full list available through Headway.

Outside of my work as a therapist, I’ve been married for 28 years and have three adult children. I enjoy spending time with my family, especially my four‐month‐old granddaughter—and I love baking.

If you’d like to explore whether we’re a good fit, I offer a free consultation. I’d be honored to support you on your journey—reach out today and let’s get started.

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.

I'm Mary, and I've spent 16 years doing this work — across crisis centers, inpatient units, community mental health, and private practice. What's kept me here isn't the credentials. It's what I've seen: that people who've been through the hardest things are often the most resilient, when someone finally helps them find the right tools. I specialize in trauma and substance use because these two things are rarely separate. I hold a master's degree in both clinical mental health and addiction counseling, and I bring that dual lens to every session. I'm LGBTQIA+-affirming, work with ages 6 through seniors, and offer telehealth throughout Oklahoma so location is never a barrier.

I believe every person holds the power to heal, grow, and live out their boldest dreams. Life’s challenges and trauma can block that potential. I offer transformational and practical tools to help individuals overcome mental health struggles and awaken to abundant fulfillment.

As a thriver myself, I’ve moved beyond immense adversity and now guide others to do the same. With over two decades of experience across private practice, government, and global consulting, I’ve supported NFL athletes, entertainers, healthcare providers, spiritual leaders, executives, military and government leaders and more to navigate the perils of life.

​

As an EMDR-trained, culturally responsive therapist, I integrate holistic and evidence-based approaches including CBT, DBT, CPT, IFS, motivational interviewing, and mindfulness. I also incorporate spiritually grounded and decolonized practices where desired.

​

Rooted in social justice, I engage in advocacy through education, training, and collaborative partnerships. I’m honored to support people across racial, gender, and identity spectrums, including the LGBTQIA+ community.

Since 2004, I’ve journeyed with countless people to support them to rediscover hope. If you’re feeling drawn to this space, I’m here to walk with you.

Fun fact: I’m a mom of four, a fashion therapist, and a lover of music, vintage finds (furniture and clothing), and all things metaphysical. If I weren’t a therapist, I’d be in law or fashion!

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 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.

Therapy is a big step, and I'm here to make that navigation painless and rewarding. I specialize in working with individuals navigating grief, anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationships. I create awareness for you of what might be going on in your life. I am empathetic, understanding, and sometimes confrontational in a caring way.
