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.

Rachel Roberts

Therapist

Virtual • Oklahoma


I’m a Houston-based therapist with over ten years of clinical experience supporting children, adolescents, and adults through a wide range of emotional, relational, and behavioral concerns. I believe therapy is most effective when you feel understood, respected, and able to be yourself.

My clinical experience includes intensive outpatient DBT programs, medication-assisted treatment, university counseling, and outpatient and residential treatment for adolescents. I have specialized training in comprehensive Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), including advanced training in DBT Prolonged Exposure and traumatic invalidation. I also incorporate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, psychodynamically informed approaches, eating disorder treatment, and family therapy into my work.

I have particular clinical interests in trauma, relationship concerns, grief and loss, family-of-origin difficulties, personality disorders, mood disorders, and substance use. I work with clients who may be navigating significant life transitions, difficult relationships, longstanding emotional patterns, or symptoms that have begun to interfere with their daily lives.

Mary Frazier

Therapist

Virtual • Oklahoma


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.

Clara Rutledge

Clara Rutledge

Therapist

Virtual • Oklahoma


I'm a southern tumbleweed at heart. Over fifteen years ago, I traded the hustle and bustle of Charleston, South Carolina, for the rural countryside of Oklahoma. I enjoy the outdoors and in my free time I'm taking in the quiet peace that comes with the Sooner State.

I'm a graduate of Southeastern Oklahoma State University. I earned my Master's in Clinical Mental Health Counseling with the goal of serving rural Oklahomans that otherwise would not have access to mental health resources.

I've had the opportunity to work with diverse populations ranging from early childhood to late adulthood. Throughout my years it has become apparent to me that my calling is to help those who feel alone in their environment and to establish a connection with others in a way that is empowering, creates autonomy, and establishes a better sense of self and relationships with others.

Find the right addiction counselor for you

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:

* 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline — call or text 988 * SAMHSA National Helpline — 1-800-662-HELP (4357), free, confidential, 24/7 * Crisis Text Line — text HOME to 741741

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
