LGBT therapists in Tulsa, OK

After four decades of psychiatric nursing, I transitioned to become a psychiatric nurse practitioner because I am passionate about providing mental health counseling to help people live their best lives. My experience encompasses working with a diverse range of patients facing both acute and chronic mental and behavioral health conditions. In my spare time, I enjoy various fiber arts, and spending time outdoors playing in the dirt. I am married to an amazing man who retired after a long career as a psychiatric social worker. Together, we have seven children and nine absolutely incredible grandchildren.

I believe everyone has a story to tell and the power to write their own future. I have over ten years experience in the mental health field and have been a licensed therapist for five years. I work with all age groups and like to meet individuals where they are, and walk with them through their journey to better mental health.

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 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.

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.
