Therapists in Comanche, OK

Hi there! I'm a super geeky counselor from Broken Arrow, Oklahoma, dedicated to collaborating with my clients to improve their daily lives and find their peace. My approach centers on positive psychology, with a strong emphasis on solution-focused methods. No matter where you're starting from, we'll work together to find those bright spots of success and build on them. We'll navigate any roadblocks and create a better path. I have a Master's degree in Clinical Psychology from the University of Tulsa and certifications in Oklahoma, Delaware, New Hampshire, and Florida. When I'm not with clients, you can find me with my family, my pets, or adding to my Doctor Who and Star Wars collection. :D

Welcome! I am a marriage & family therapist with thirty years experience. I'm currently licensed in Oklahoma & Colorado but my original license was Connecticut. I work with clients with a wide range of concerns including divorce & blended family issues, family conflict, marital & relationship problems, career challenges, anger management & stress & anxiety. Additionally, I earned my MBA, & consulted with companies & organizations on developing leadership & communication skills in their employees. My therapy style is warm, compassionate & respectful. My approach predominantly combines cognitive-behavioral, dialectical behavioral, brief solution focused therapies. Therapy will be a collaboration with you specifying your treatment goal or goals. Your treatment will be tailored to fit your own unique needs. I look forward to working with you!

As a Licensed Marital and Family Therapist in Oklahoma for over 20 years, I have a systemic perspective on the issues clients bring to therapy. I understand that your difficulties exist in relationship to your larger circle of family, friends and colleagues. Clients appreciate this perspective because it seems like I “get it” differently than someone who doesn't view people systemically. Some of the specific struggles I treat are coping with all types of grief and loss (not just death), managing life transitions, anxiety/stress, caregiver issues, sleep struggles, communication, anger management, money/financial issues, self-esteem and experiencing compassion fatigue and burnout. A particular passion of mine is working with Third Culture Kids (TCKs), especially helping them transition to living in the United States. I have walked alongside TCKs and Adult TCKs for many years and have extensive experience in this therapeutic area. Ultimately, I believe, you are the expert on your story and you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming the things that challenge you! I hope to be someone who can help you along the way! Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage, and I am proud of you for getting started.

Hi and Welcome, The first step in any journey can be the hardest. Congratulations in taking that first step. I am Rose Ballard. I am an US Army Veteran, having served 9 years active duty, as a Tank Turret/Small Arm Weapons Mechanic as well as a Master Fitness Instructor. I graduated from in 2016 John Brown University with a Masters in Family and Marriage Counseling and a Masters in Clinical Counseling. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor from the State of Oklahoma working in the field for the past 6yrs and certified in Eagala Equine therapy, C-Cert, and motivational interviewing. I am also trained in Family and Marriage Counseling and Play therapy. I have worked in community mental health and in the private sector. I have worked with clients through the life span to include couples or marriage counseling. I have worked with clients dealing with depression, anxiety, PTSD, substance use, personality disorders and traumas. I am a solution focused/CBT therapist. I am direct in a positive manner and help the client find the answer they have within themselves.

Welcome. I hope you find insight here! As a licensed psychotherapist & clinical supervisor, I value a practical understanding of holistic medicine. Coming from a "seasoned" lens with almost two decades of clinical experience, my approach relies heavily on evidence-based technique, research and natural instinct. With gratitude, I invite you to explore details of my treatment approach & scope of practice below. If you prefer client commentary, please skip to my reviews! They are 100% voluntary, as direct feedback is essential to my approach. With a board certification in clinical supervision, I prioritize the lifelong pursuit of research & continued education. I believe wholeheartedly that transparency & accountability are essential for long term growth. Healing is a collaborative process. The meaningful learning happens during a gentle balance of partnership. My passion for counseling psychology, intertwined with formalized education have been necessary to develop the awareness necessary to provide services as a skilled therapist. Clinical intuition & self-discovery through experience have naturally resulted in what I believe to be my own fundamental purpose as a healer. In addition to what I've detailed above: my devotion to motherhood, my commitment to faith and my belief in the power of recovery all combined enhance an already strong intuition. Through self-discovery and overcoming trials as a woman in medicine, I was thrilled to accept a divine purpose, expanding from psychotherapist, onto utilizing a gift of clinical leadership. I am grateful & overjoyed to recently celebrate ten years of sobriety in November of 2024. I believe my sobriety personally enhances my ability to practice the fundamentals of recovery, and to help guide those suffering in active addiction. My experience is vital in the guidance I provide to clients as they locate their chosen path to healing. Most clients naturally gravitate to my intentional transparency. Helping clients focus on their own self-discovery is a rewarding journey of partnership that involves a gentle balance of grace, respect and humility. My individual experience as a practitioner is separate, unique and secondary to client needs. Almost two decades ago, I discovered my dream to formalize the leadership of therapists during licensure. Gaining this certification intensified my love & commitment to the field and I consider this role of clinical mentorship a true honor. My partnership with Betterhelp allows me to use a flexible approach as an independent practitioner. I contract with organizations that respect this independence, allowing variety and a relaxed structure. My choice to maintain small caseloads allows me an ability to commit to individual needs & prioritize the well-being of each client I've pre-selected. This is a process I prefer to customize to ensure therapeutic trust. Most notable feedback from former clients: I am attentive, nurturing, flexible, knowledgeable and direct in my communication. I find that my own authenticity is fundamental to my essence as a human, just as transparency underlies all healthy attachment. My theoretical style has evolved over many years of formal practice. I continue to seek proficiency in advanced training, where I hope to prioritize skilled techniques using: Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness & Internal Family Systems. Solution-focused CBT, TF-CBT. With specialized understanding in trauma recovery, I believe that we all have the ability to heal. Only you hold the power to transform your life. This directly requires accountability, openness and honesty. Responsibility for your healing is fundamental to this process. My role in this partnership is dependent on the value of client effort! I provide support, validation and accountability - just as I enforce and practice boundaries. Other fundamentals like confrontation and psychoeducation provide the groundwork BEST for healing. My faith adds a necessary layer of unique impartiality to my role. This detail is important to acknowledge as my spiritual beliefs overlap with a unique awareness that I believe transcends the collective, mind, body and soul. Using the necessary structure of standard practice with the appropriate evidence-based techniques, only licensed psychotherapists possess the exclusive legal responsibility and ethical liability to provide safe, legitimate medical care. Verifiable benefit is shown through statistical evidence with insured, licensed practitioners. My ultimate priority as a licensed psychotherapist is to provide the emotional safety that ensures healing for my clients. I am verified by Psychology Today, a member of the National Counseling Association & several others. I believe that NO obstacle is superior against the profound strength of human connection & willpower! An OPEN heart is always the ONLY requirement for outpatient treatment. Thank you for the time you've chosen to spend with my words. I hope you've found insight in the details shared! Please feel free to join my wait list today!
