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.
I believe healing begins when people feel heard, understood, and accepted. My goal is to provide a safe, welcoming, and nonjudgmental environment where you can openly share your experiences at your own pace. I understand that seeking therapy takes courage, and I consider it a privilege to walk alongside you during that journey.
As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, substance use, grief, relationship concerns, and life transitions. I believe emotional wellness is about more than reducing symptoms—it’s about restoring balance, building resilience, and creating a life that feels meaningful and fulfilling.
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’m glad you’re here. Hola, me alegro estás aquí. I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor in Oklahoma who works with individuals and families navigating anxiety, trauma, PTSD, substance use, and family-related challenges.
If life feels overwhelming, relationships feel strained, or past experiences are still affecting your present, you don’t have to carry that alone. I offer a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where we can work together to better understand what’s going on and create meaningful change.
My goal is to help you feel safer, stronger, and more in control of your life moving forward.
I am a Doctor of Social Work and Licensed Clinical Social Worker with training in trauma-informed care. I support individuals in building self-determination and addressing maladaptive thought patterns that contribute to anxiety and depression.
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.
I am a dual certified Nurse Practitioner with over 21 years of nursing experience, who can help with the management of your mental and physical health needs. This includes medication management and other avenues to help you meet your goals.
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 am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor passionate about helping clients move past what's holding them back from being their best selves. I am a proud alumnus of North Carolina Central University (B.A.) and Nova Southeastern University (M.S., Mental Health Counseling). I welcome clients from all walks of life and every stage of the journey, whether you're new to therapy or returning. Together, we identify what isn't working, build on what is, and create a path toward real, lasting change. My goal is that you leave feeling heard, understood, and equipped to move forward.
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.

Inspired by a vision of creating a space where healing is both inclusive and affordable, she founded Helen’s Project with the belief that everyone deserves access to quality mental health support, regardless of their background or financial situation.Helen’s Project operates on the principle that culturally competent and empathetic mental health care is essential for holistic well-being.

Headway makes it easier to find support for overcoming addiction — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing an Addiction Therapist in Oklahoma City
Finding addiction therapists in Oklahoma City starts with understanding the kind of support that fits your needs. Addiction care can include support for alcohol use, drug use, substance use concerns, and behavioral patterns that feel hard to change. As you compare therapists, look for experience with approaches like motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy for substance use, harm reduction, and coordination with medication-assisted care when relevant. Some people also work with a prescriber as part of their care team, depending on their needs.
Oklahoma City has many mental health care options, and the number of choices can make it harder to narrow the search. You may want a therapist near your home or work, or you may prefer virtual sessions that fit more easily into your schedule. It can also help to consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new clients, and how they describe their approach to addiction care. Read therapist bios for signs of a nonjudgmental style, experience with recovery that changes over time, and training in harm reduction or substance use support.
Addiction counseling in Oklahoma City can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care starts. Headway makes it easier to search for therapists who match your needs and offer upfront cost estimates after you enter your insurance details. You can confirm whether a specific therapist accepts your insurance on Headway. You can compare bios, review availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you or someone you know is experiencing severe withdrawal symptoms — especially from alcohol or benzodiazepines — talk to a medical provider or seek emergency care before starting outpatient therapy. If you or someone you know is struggling with addiction or substance use and is in a crisis, immediately reach out to:
