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 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 therapy should be shaped around your unique needs, goals, values, and lived experience. My work is grounded in a holistic view of healing, which means I consider the connection between mind, body, and spirit as we explore what is affecting your well-being. I support clients navigating anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, life transitions, relationship concerns, emotional overwhelm, and the desire for deeper clarity or personal growth. My goal is to provide a safe, supportive, and respectful space where you can explore what you are carrying, better understand yourself, and begin creating meaningful change in a way that feels aligned with who you are!

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 15 years of experience supporting adolescents and adults through life’s challenges. I specialize in helping individuals manage depression, anxiety, grief, and times of crisis, offering compassionate guidance and evidence-based care.

With extensive experience in medical social work and crisis intervention, I also have a strong background in supporting first responders and others navigating high-stress environments. My approach is strengths-based and person-centered, grounded in evidence-based practices that promote resilience, healing, and personal growth.

I earned a Master of Social Work degree from the University of Oklahoma and have built my career helping individuals navigate life's challenges with resilience and hope.

I strive to create a safe, supportive space where clients feel heard, valued, and empowered to discover their own capacity for change and well-being.

I’m a board-certified psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner with more than 15 years of licensed nursing experience, most of that in mental health care. My background includes inpatient psychiatry, outpatient care, geriatric mental health, and caring for people through different stages of life, so I’ve seen how mental health concerns can show up in very real, everyday ways.

Over the years, I’ve learned that people don’t always have the words for what they’re experiencing. Sometimes they just know something feels off. Maybe it’s constant worry, low energy, feeling overwhelmed, having trouble sleeping, or simply not feeling like themselves anymore. That’s where I come in.

I help adults understand what may be going on and find practical, effective ways to address it. Medication may be part of the plan when appropriate, but we also look at the bigger picture and talk through the options together. My goal is to make mental health care feel clear, approachable, and personal, not confusing or overwhelming.

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.

Fun facts about me, I enjoy video games, weight lifting, anime, pop music and pop cultrue. I make Tik Toks for fun.

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.

I am a licensed mental health counselor in Florida and a licensed professional counselor in Oklahoma. I work with clients of all ages who are experiencing stress and anxiety. I have more than 10 years experience working with families and caregivers experiencing the loss and changes that come with aging or a dementia diagnosis. I am trained as a support group leader for the Alzheimer's Association.

ACCEPTING WAITLIST CLIENTS ONLY: From the outside, you are high-achieving, capable, and completely on top of things. But on the inside, constant mental tracking, perfectionism, intrusive thoughts, forgetfulness, and rumination have left you completely burned out. Standard time-management advice and anxiety tips don't work for a neurodivergent brain (ADHD, OCD, Autism) or deep chronic stress. Your brain being wired differently or being at a breaking point means your path out of burnout has to look different. I help hard-working professionals, young adults, and older teens unmask their authentic selves and overcome severe burnout or executive functioning challenges.

Hello! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Oklahoma with over 10 years of experience in the mental health field. I hold a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Oklahoma and have nearly 8 years of experience providing counseling services to children, adolescents, and adults in a variety of treatment settings. I have experience helping individuals navigate anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, trauma, stress, life transitions, and other emotional challenges that can make daily life feel overwhelming. My goal is to provide a supportive, nonjudgmental environment where clients feel safe to be themselves, build insight, strengthen coping skills, and work toward meaningful personal growth.

I help people move from simply coping to genuinely thriving. I hold a Master's in Human Relations with an emphasis in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Oklahoma, along with advanced training in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT). My background spans neurological rehabilitation, residential behavioral health, crisis intervention, and telehealth — and my experience outside of clinical work gives me a grounded, practical understanding of stress, leadership dynamics, and personal growth. I work with adults and youth ages 8 and older, and I'm currently accepting new clients.
