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.
Think of me as your emotional co-pilot, helping you navigate whatever twists and turns life throws your way! I can help with a multitude of things: anxiety, stress, depression, trauma, relationship issues, life transitions and even general overwhelm (It's a thing!)
I am here to help you see things from different perspectives, challenge you, hold space for you and make you feel supported every step of the way. You deserve to feel like you can take up space and like you belong.
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.
I'm M.J. I am an affirming ally who will support you on your unique path. I have been licensed as a professional counselor since 2012; obtained a Master of Science degree in Community Counseling from Oklahoma State University in 2007; worked with a variety of people in outpatient and social services settings.
You've been looking for a therapist who will get it. Who won't need you to explain, defend, or translate. Whether you're navigating anxiety, depression, or the particular weight of figuring out who you are in a world that doesn't always make that easy, you deserve a space where all of you is welcome. I'm an LCSW with 8 years in mental health and a proud member and ally of the LGBTQIA+ community. I work with adults dealing with anxiety, depression, identity, and the everyday experience of just being your full self. My goal is to help you build toward where you actually want to be, at a pace that works for you.
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.

Find the right LGBTQ-friendly therapy provider for you
Headway makes it easier to connect with affirming therapists who understand your identity — from finding the right therapist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing an LGBTQIA+ Therapist in Oklahoma City
Finding LGBTQIA+ therapists in Oklahoma City starts with looking for identity-affirming care that fits your needs. An affirming therapist may support people navigating identity, relationships, family dynamics, anxiety, depression, trauma, or life transitions. As you compare options, look for profiles that mention affirmative therapy, gender-diverse experience, WPATH training, or work with LGBTQIA+ clients. These details can help you find a therapist whose training and listed specialties match the care you want.
Oklahoma City has a broad mental health care market, and the number of options can make it harder to choose a clear path. Virtual therapy can also expand access to LGBTQIA+-affirming therapists, especially when the right local fit has limited availability or works outside your usual commute. As you narrow your search, consider appointment times, whether the therapist is accepting new clients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading therapist bios can help you understand their communication style, approach, and experience with LGBTQIA+ communities before you book.
Therapy 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 Headway helps you see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before your first session. Headway lets you search for LGBTQIA+-affirming therapists, review detailed profiles, and book directly when you’re ready. You can also enter your insurance details on Headway to confirm coverage and see your estimated costs for your specific plan and location.
