Family therapy and counseling in Norman, OK

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.

Hello, I’m Elizabeth Ashley Butler, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with nine years of experience in the mental health field and five years as a fully licensed therapist. My work is grounded in the belief that a strong and healthy client-therapist relationship is essential to successful outcomes in counseling. I see my role as a facilitator—creating a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space that fosters honesty, trust, healing, and personal growth.

I currently provide therapy to individuals, families, couples and adolescents from diverse ethnic, cultural, and socioeconomic backgrounds. I specialize in working with clients facing challenges related to trauma, anger, anxiety, depression, PTSD, OCD, eating disorders, obesity, stress, life transitions, communication issues, workplace concerns, LGBTQ+ matters, and various mental health diagnoses.

Clinically, I draw from a range of evidence-based approaches tailored to each client’s needs. My core modalities include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Functional Family Therapy (FFT), along with other integrative techniques as appropriate.

From both personal and professional experience, I’ve come to understand that connection is foundational, acceptance is transformative, and meaningful change—while often challenging—is possible. Change can lead to healing, emotional strength, and a higher quality of life. It also opens the door to new opportunities and helps us break free from generational cycles that no longer serve us.

It would be my privilege to walk alongside you on your journey toward healing, self-awareness, and growth.

It seems like life should be better than this - I have heard some version of this sentence from every client, couple, or family for more than two decades of counseling. They believe that life and relationships should function better and are trying to figure out how. The clients I have seen are struggling with relational dysfunction, anxiety, depression, grief, or the residue of trauma. Many of them feel lonely, confused, and hopeless about one or several issues within their story. Many of the stories are very hard and painful. Understandably, they all want to find a better way to live their lives and change the story.

I have studied far beyond the minimum so that I can genuinely help people create transformation in their lives and relationships. I don't just help them feel better today, but I give them systems that can work for a lifetime. Life can be better, as hundreds of former clients can confirm. I help people design a transformed life.

I recognize that for many, fundamental transformation feels inaccessible and unrealistic. Many of the clients that I have helped in the past thought the same thing. They now have a new story to tell themselves and others. Let's design your life transformation together.

I also work full-time in tribal behavioral health, where I’ve had the privilege of supporting individuals from a wide variety of backgrounds and life experiences.

My passion is helping people heal from trauma, navigate relationship challenges, and better understand the ways past experiences continue to impact their lives today. I’m EMDR-informed and TF-CBT-informed, and I use these evidence-based approaches alongside a compassionate, collaborative style of therapy.

I specialize in working with children and adolescents experiencing anxiety, OCD, ADHD, Autism, behavioral challenges, emotional regulation difficulties, low self-esteem, and life transitions. I believe therapy should be collaborative, practical, and individualized.As a previous Special Education Counselor for a school district in Texas, I have experience partnering with children, teens, families, and school teams to support emotional well-being, behavioral growth, and academic success.

I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process.

I believe everyone has a story to tell and the power to write their own future. I have over ten years experience in the mental health field and have been a licensed therapist for five years. I work with all age groups and like to meet individuals where they are, and walk with them through their journey to better mental health.

Life doesn't come with a roadmap — but building one is exactly what we do together.

I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over 17 years of experience working with youth, adults, families, and military communities across school, clinical, and community settings. I've sat with people in some of the most demanding circumstances imaginable — from inpatient mental health facilities to active military bases — and I've learned that what helps most isn't a script. It's connection, clarity, and a practical plan that actually fits your life.

I grew up on a farm, where I learned early that hard work and determination lead to better outcomes. That belief has shaped every corner of my career — and how I show up for every person I work with.

If you've been carrying something heavy — past trauma, anxiety that won't quiet down, or the sense that old experiences are still quietly running your life — you're in the right place. I specialize in helping adults get to the root of what's holding them back, using EMDR and trauma-informed approaches to identify the beliefs that drive our behaviors without us even realizing it.

I've been doing this work since 2018, and one thing I've come to believe deeply: the goal isn't happiness — it's balance, and a more realistic relationship with yourself and your life. Everyone has mental health. You deserve the tools to have real agency over yours.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Oklahoma with over 20 years of experience supporting individuals through life's most difficult challenges. I specialize in panic, anxiety, depression, trauma, and anger management, helping clients build the skills they need to heal and thrive.
