Elizabeth Butler

Elizabeth Butler

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 15 mi away • Del City, OK


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.

Jeff Plunkett

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 16 mi away • Midwest City, OK


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.

Mark Hampton

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 19 mi away • Oklahoma City, OK


I was born and raised in Oklahoma, and my journey in the helping professions began long before I became a therapist. Prior to my counseling career, I owned and operated a franchise staffing agency, giving me valuable experience in career development and human connection.

As a therapist, I’ve had the privilege of working in both residential and outpatient settings, as well as private practice. I’m passionate about supporting individuals and groups on their journey toward healing and growth.

Life has offered me a rich tapestry of experiences, blending personal challenges and blessings with professional knowledge. This blend enriches my approach and empathy as a therapist.

Outside of work, I cherish time with my wife, our two adult daughters, and our beloved dogs, Maggie, Matilda Maisy . I also enjoy golfing and traveling whenever possible. I’m a resourceful, straightforward, and inspiring professional who values goals, challenges, and overall well-being.

Therapist

From the outside, you are high-achieving, capable, and completely on top of things. But on the inside, constant mental tracking, perfectionism, intrusive thoughts, forgetfulness, and rumination have left you completely burned out. Standard time-management advice and anxiety tips don't work for a neurodivergent brain (ADHD, OCD, Autism) or deep chronic stress. Your brain being wired differently or being at a breaking point means your path out of burnout has to look different. I help hard-working professionals, young adults, and older teens unmask their authentic selves and overcome severe burnout or executive functioning challenges.

Hello! I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor serving adolescents and adults across Oklahoma through after-hours telehealth sessions. I know that finding time for therapy can be difficult, which is why I offer evening and weekend appointments designed to fit into your busy life.

I earned my Master’s degree in Human Relations with a concentration in Clinical Mental Health from the University of Oklahoma in 2018 and have been practicing as an LPC since 2020. 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.
