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

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.

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’m an LGBTQ+ affirming therapist who works with children, teens, and adults navigating anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, relationship issues, family conflict, identity concerns, and panic. Many of my clients come in feeling overwhelmed by emotions, stuck in painful patterns, or unsure how to handle what life is asking of them right now.

My practice is rooted in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), but I tailor my approach to meet each person’s unique needs. Since beginning my career in 2017, I have worked in a variety of settings—including home visits and hospital crisis care—which has deepened my understanding of the challenges individuals and families face. I am committed to providing a safe, flexible, and compassionate environment where you can explore your goals and build resilience.

Life doesn't come with a roadmap — but building one is exactly what we do together.

I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over 17 years of experience working with youth, adults, families, and military communities across school, clinical, and community settings. I've sat with people in some of the most demanding circumstances imaginable — from inpatient mental health facilities to active military bases — and I've learned that what helps most isn't a script. It's connection, clarity, and a practical plan that actually fits your life.

I grew up on a farm, where I learned early that hard work and determination lead to better outcomes. That belief has shaped every corner of my career — and how I show up for every person I work with.

I'm Sherry Ramsey Hansen, a therapist with eight years of experience supporting individuals through life's most challenging moments. I specialize in working with clients navigating depression, anxiety, stress, trauma, and the complex emotions that arise during significant life transitions.

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.

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’m Shelly Hughes, LCSW, a therapist and the owner of Wonder Works Counseling. I earned my Master of Social Work from the University of Oklahoma in 2022 and my Bachelor’s degree in Criminal Justice from Oklahoma City University. My approach to therapy is warm, practical, trauma-informed, and focused on helping clients understand themselves rather than simply trying to “fix” symptoms.

I work with children, adolescents, and adults experiencing anxiety, ADHD, trauma, PTSD, emotional dysregulation, life transitions, relationship difficulties, and challenges related to self-esteem and coping. I have specialized training in EMDR, Play Therapy, Sand Tray Therapy, Somatic Therapy, CBT, and DBT. With children, I often use play-based approaches to help them communicate and process experiences in ways that feel natural and developmentally appropriate. With adults, I integrate evidence-based approaches with trauma-focused and somatic techniques to help clients develop greater emotional awareness, regulation, and resilience.

I believe therapy should be a place where you can be honest without feeling judged. Many of the people I work with have spent years feeling misunderstood, overwhelmed, or like they are somehow “too much” or “not enough.” My goal is to create a space where you can slow down, understand what is happening beneath the surface, and develop tools that actually fit your life.

I especially enjoy working with clients who are navigating ADHD, trauma, anxiety, emotional regulation difficulties, and relationship or family stress. I also work with parents who are trying to better understand and support their children.

My goal is not to tell you who you should be. It is to help you understand yourself, heal from what you have experienced, and build a life that feels more manageable and authentic to you.

I am dedicated to creating a safe and supportive space where clients feel seen, heard, and valued. I work with children, adults, and families navigating trauma, anxiety, and family challenges, empowering each client to reclaim their strength, build resilience, and thrive in their everyday lives.

If you've been carrying something heavy — past trauma, anxiety that won't quiet down, or the sense that old experiences are still quietly running your life — you're in the right place. I specialize in helping adults get to the root of what's holding them back, using EMDR and trauma-informed approaches to identify the beliefs that drive our behaviors without us even realizing it.

I've been doing this work since 2018, and one thing I've come to believe deeply: the goal isn't happiness — it's balance, and a more realistic relationship with yourself and your life. Everyone has mental health. You deserve the tools to have real agency over yours.

Life doesn't come with an instruction manual. When emotions feel intense, relationships become difficult, or stress starts affecting everyday life, having the right tools can make a real difference.

For more than 8 years, I’ve helped clients develop practical skills to better manage emotions, cope with difficult situations, improve relationships, and move forward with greater confidence.

My practice specializes in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)—a practical, skills-based approach that focuses on learning how to navigate life's challenges while building a life that feels more manageable and meaningful.

Counseling can help you:

• Understand and manage difficult emotions • Develop healthier ways to cope with stress • Strengthen relationships and communication • Set and maintain healthy boundaries • Increase self-awareness and mindfulness • Navigate transitions and challenges • Build confidence in handling difficult moments
