I am a licensed professional counselor licensed in both Oklahoma and Texas with over 15 years of experience working as a vocational counselor and psychotherapist. My experience includes providing counseling services to teens and adults. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, and career challenges. I also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse.
I describe my counseling style is as open and easy going; no pressure. I believe in the importance of building rapport. Therefore, my goal is to treat each individual with the upmost respect, empathy, sensitivity, and compassion. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, solution focused, and client centered therapies. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.
I believe the first step to counseling is self awareness. So, if you are seeking services, then you are half way there!

I've only had one session with her so far, but she's definitely what I need in a therapist! She is very helpful and just over all an amazing listener and supporter! I can't wait to have more sessions with her.

What can I say? Krista McKelvin has taught me how to knock on doors that I hadn't even known about before. She shows me the doors by listening, responding, exploring, questioning and answering. I laugh, I cry, I nod my head with acknowledgement. Wherever we find ourselves, she is up for it, and our sessions have me jotting down notes that help put this puzzle together. I cannot thank her enough.
