Named after Marshall Cushing, who was a private secretary to the U.S. Postmaster General John Wanamaker, the town of Cushing has an interesting history. It was founded after the Land Run of 1891 and became an important town when the oil boom in 1912 led to the city’s development of an oil refinery, which it still is today. In fact, it is one of the most important transshipment points in Texas.

The Cushing area is also full of some excellent mental health experts who are always on hand to help those who need extra support for any reason. No matter your emotional or mental health issue, the counselors in and around Cushing can help.

Welcome to my profile! I am glad you are here. My name is Dr. Patrick McCain. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and a Licensed Alcohol and Drug Counselor in Oklahoma. I have been in the field for 16yrs. I have experience in helping with a multitude of disorders. My experience underlies success with treating Anxiety/Depression, PTSD, Bi-Polar, and Personality Disorders such as Borderline Personality Disorder, Children's Disorders such as Reactive Attachment Disorder, Oppositional Defiance, and Emotional Disturbances. I have learned to take a variety of approaches to help clients find healing, growth, and desired change. My person-centered approach maintains the utmost positive regard for you and your needs. My cognitive approach will help challenge and change depression or anxiety thinking. My training as a Trauma-Focused therapist will help in understanding symptomology, identify triggers, and reduce sensitivity to events that may be a reminder of past trauma. Substance abuse is another specialty. In treating substance use therapists need to be careful not to take a singleness approach. We all experience different believes and respond differently to addiction. Therefore, I use a variety of approaches that help clients maintain a life without the obsession of substances. I take pride in my journey to help others. The road is long but rewarding. If you are interested in facing the challenge of change than I will be dedicated to facilitating. I believe you will be the expert in the process. I will help you build on your strengths and work with you to find solutions in your time of stress. I will respect your decisions and maintain a non-judgmental attitude. Let me help you find your own solutions and way of coping with life struggles. I find the counseling process to be an exciting process. I will be enthusiastic to build a professional and counseling relationship. This process should not be taken lightly. It should be respected, as the decision to get counseling is not an easy one. If you are here and have chosen to start the journey of growth then congratulations! Please let me know if I can help.

I am licensed by the state of Oklahoma as a marriage and family therapist. I can help people in their families and in their relationships even with only one person doing the session. You would take home and share the insights and guidance as to what to do that would help. I work also with parents and caregivers of troubled children, including children on the Autism Spectrum. I have six recently published books available on Amazon related to these issues: The One Week Manager (working at home stress free), Those First Six Years (Developmental Psychology, skills children need to develop) a book on Marriage called The 7th Contract; Healing from Spiritual and Reglious Wounds; a workbook fo couples called Beyond the Vows; and a novel: The End of North America: a meteoroligist saves the world from doomsday. I have been doing therapy for 45 years, am a AAMFT Fellow, have worked with a tribe for six years in Oklahoma as the Indian Child Welfare Director. I listen to you, tell you what I think about it, make suggestions and recommendations. If that makes sense to you we would then make a plan of action that you believe is helpful. I have done a great deal of work with people wounded spiritually or by religion, and with single parents.
