Kristin Neal, LCSW
About me
I am licensed in Oklahoma with 11 years of professional experience. I have worked extensively with clients dealing with trauma and abuse, as well as children and families involved in the Child Welfare system. Additionally, I have experience with the Office of Juvenile Affairs.
I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I am honest and forthcoming with my clients. While I am gentle and compassionate, I do not "sugar coat" situations. My approach is often direct and goal-oriented because I want to see you make progress and feel better soon!
I will tailor our dialogue and treatment plan to meet your specific needs. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy requires courage, and I’m proud of you for getting started!

She’s helped me tremendously in the short amount of time. She’s been able to connect with me and help me break through by listening to what makes me click. I’ve noticed a huge impact in my life the second week of therapy. I never expected that to happen, expectations are being exceeded!

I've been avoiding therapy because I couldn't find anyone in my area and was skeptical of BetterHelp. Kristin has been amazing and just what I've needed in helping me work through some traumatic experiences, grow, learn, approach things from different angles, and process different traumas. I can't say enough great things about her work.
