Find a therapist in Oklahoma City, OK — covered by insurance

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.

My name is Lari Smith, and I’ve spent nearly 15 years helping individuals and families navigate life’s challenges and build healthier, more fulfilling lives. I hold multiple graduate‐level degrees, including a Master of Science in Human Resources (2006), a Master’s Certificate in Addiction Counseling (2016), and a Master of Science in Psychological Services (2017). I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Oklahoma and am currently under supervision for my LADC.

Before entering private practice, I worked for the Department of Human Services and later served as a school counselor in rural K–8 schools. These experiences deepened my passion for supporting children, families, and individuals facing complex or overwhelming life circumstances. Today, I work with clients of all ages and have a special appreciation for both children and older adults.

My therapeutic approach is eclectic, but I frequently draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients understand the connection between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. I have experience treating a wide range of concerns, including adjustment disorders, anxiety, depression, child sexual abuse, PTSD, Borderline Personality Disorder, and other mental health challenges. I also bring personal insight into chronic pain after experiencing a serious car accident in 2017 that resulted in multiple broken bones.

I currently practice in a rural Oklahoma community and am accepting new clients. I offer virtual sessions and accept insurance, with a full list available through Headway.

Outside of my work as a therapist, I’ve been married for 28 years and have three adult children. I enjoy spending time with my family, especially my four‐month‐old granddaughter—and I love baking.

If you’d like to explore whether we’re a good fit, I offer a free consultation. I’d be honored to support you on your journey—reach out today and let’s get started.

Great to meet you! As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 30 years in the mental health field and 16 years practicing therapy, I bring a wealth of experience to our work together.

When working with adults, my areas of expertise include navigating anxiety, processing grief, and building self-esteem. My goal is to create a safe, welcoming space where we can tackle these challenges together and help you or your child thrive.

Trauma doesn't always stay in the past. Sometimes it shows up as anxiety that never seems to quiet down, relationships that feel difficult to trust, a constant need to stay on guard, or the feeling that you're carrying experiences no one else truly understands. You may have spent years surviving, taking care of everyone else, or wondering why certain patterns keep repeating in your life. Healing is possible, and you don't have to do it alone.

I'm Christina, a Licensed Professional Counselor with nearly two decades of experience helping individuals heal from trauma and rediscover safety, connection, and hope. While I welcome all adults, I have a special passion for working with women who are ready to process painful experiences, strengthen their relationships, and move beyond survival mode into a more peaceful, fulfilling life.

I’m a Black, queer therapist dedicated to creating a safe, affirming, and nonjudgmental space for teens and adults navigating life’s challenges. I specialize in working with depression, anxiety, identity exploration, racial stress and trauma, and issues impacting the LGBTQ+ community.

I understand that culture, identity, family dynamics, and systemic experiences can deeply impact mental health, and I strive to provide therapy that honors the full complexity of who you are. Whether you’re working through anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, self-esteem, burnout, or navigating life as a queer person of color, therapy with me is a space where you do not have to shrink yourself to be accepted.
