Trauma and PTSD therapists & psychiatrists in Tulsa, OK

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.

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 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.

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.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Oklahoma with over 20 years of experience supporting individuals through life's most difficult challenges. I specialize in panic, anxiety, depression, trauma, and anger management, helping clients build the skills they need to heal and thrive.

As a Licensed Marital and Family Therapist, my goal is to help you uncover your true potential and build a life worth celebrating.

I specialize in helping individuals, couples, and families understand and resolve current challenges by exploring the long-standing patterns and perceptions that may be holding you back.

By integrating complementary therapy techniques, I provide a supportive space to work through difficult situations and move toward a more fulfilling future."

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 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.

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.
