20 years of experience offering psychology treatment
My background is fairly broad having lived in a number of states in the United States and abroad. I have a positive regard for many cultures having lived abroad as well, recognizing that diversity is a part of the world we live in now and our many cultures create a mosaic of life. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, Licensed in the state of Oklahoma and Colorado. I have a Masters degree in Counseling. My career has included work with families and youth, individuals and couples along with those struggling with serious mental health issues as well as leading organizations and dealing in this capacity with personnel and ways to lead staff and motivate leadership in these settings always striving for positive outcomes. I have had training in Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Cognitive Processing Therapy, and have been a counselor for 20 plus years. I am typically eclectic when working with individuals and families, as well as couples and youth. It is my belief that you can use a socratic approach of questioning and exploring, and challenging gently when working with survivors of trauma, when exploring misconceptions, as well as challenging belief patterns that may be challenging to the day to day coping that we need to have. I believe that we can also explore our patterns of functioning and adapt adding new skills and patterns, traditions and celebrations for example, to place ourselves in a better place to thrive, not only survive in this experience we call life. We have the honor as counselors to travel with you and those you care about on your journey briefly, and this we do with the utmost respect for who you are and for how you wish to see yourself and your family and loved ones succeed and overcome the current challenges you are facing.

Hello! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in both Oklahoma and Tennessee, and a Reiki Master. I graduated cum-laude from Mississippi College (CACREP accredited) with a Masters in Counseling Psychology in 2003, and I maintain a private practice in Oklahoma. I practice mental/behavioral health and energy healing, and I employ a variety of techniques and approaches, including Energy Psychology and Mindfulness. My skill preference and strength is in utilizing Mind-Body approaches. I previously worked treating predominantly Hispanic clients from children to adults in a medical center, and I have over a decade of experience working with adolescent and adult populations in drug rehabilitation settings, and outpatient mental health and substance abuse treatment centers. In more recent years, I have worked primarily with adults and teens experiencing mild to moderate depression and anxiety, and also persons needing help navigating difficult life situations such as divorce/relationship changes, grief, or coping with health issues, such as post-partum, auto-immune disease, and chronic pain. I am a firm believer in alternative methods to healing, holistic approaches to treatment, and living an active and healthy lifestyle as the foundation to good physical, mental, and emotional health. I relocated to Oklahoma shortly thereafter shortly after graduating from my Masters program. I have lived in Mississippi, Tennessee, and a few other states, but was raised primarily on the beautiful island of Puerto Rico. I grew up immersed in Puerto-Rican culture, and became fluent in Spanish, and I was also raised speaking Portuguese and English at home, and spent summers visiting family in São Paulo, Brazil. I feel that my multi-cultural upbringing helps me in understanding clients from diverse backgrounds. In addition to being a licensed therapist, I'm also a certified Reiki Master, and an avid student of alternative healing methods. I balance my work helping others with raising three beautiful daughters, and caring for a Golden Retriever, a Hound-mix rescue, and two cats. I love learning alternative methods of healing, exploring other cultures, and small-scale gardening. I am also a supporter of clean and healthy living, animal rights, sustainability and preserving the environment. Energy Psychology Energy psychology is a form of treatment that emphasizes the mind-body connection, and focuses on wholeness and total well-being for the client. Several treatment methods may be used, usually involving a form of bio-feedback, relaxation techniques, and the administering of self-treatments stemming from ancient alternative healing therapies. Because energy psychology addresses the root causes of a patient's dis-ease through the body, it is possible to release deep, subconscious issues. Energy psychology is appropriate for all ages, and for most problems, and it is ideal in situations when previous treatments have failed and patients are feeling stuck. It is a gentle, interactive, and efficient way of treating multiple complaints. Research has shown the effectiveness of energy psychology approaches in treating trauma and stress compared to traditional psychotherapies.

Hi I'm Scotty, a 40 year old white male in the Southwestern part of America. I'm a father of 3 boys, a friend to many dogs, and I've been married for 18 great years so far. I love movies, comedy, art, podcasts, music, video games and newly into disc golf. How my brain works & my views of therapy: ***Therapy is scary and embarrassing and certainly uncomfortable for a lot of people. We’ve been told only “the crazies” go to therapy or it's for “weak” people. Realistic therapy is identifying and unlearning destructive beliefs/patterns while building coping skills and emotional intelligence to take control of your life. Its like going to the gym. At first you feel like you’ve made the wrong choice, it’s hard, you don’t know if you’re doing it right and want to give up. But you keep trying and then you realize that things are improving and getting easier to manage. ***Therapy is about feeling comfortable and honest. I want you to be comfortable and not feel like you have to act any certain way. The more “you” you can be, the more you will be able to address underlying issues successfully. You can curse, yell, cry, have a smoke, pet your animals (my dogs are gonna make a guest appearance), talk about how you don’t like your mother/kids, or what you really want to say to your jerk boss. Ultimately, therapy should be a place to be uncensored without fear of judgment/embarrassment/retaliation/telling others. I have more “undignified” moments in my life than I can remember so I am not about to judge you. I don’t believe in making you feel worse about what happened in your life. My job is helping you take those situations and repurpose them for motivation to do better, make peace with yourself and stop it from continuing to wreck your life. I believe in using humor when possible and not being uptight at all. I prefer to be honest with you and not beat around the bush. Dealing with heavy emotional and behavioral issues isn't about an always positive attitude. It's about recognizing what changes you need in life and working on realistic ways to address them. At the same time, you need support and someone who will not judge you. Someone to be in your corner during what is most likely one of the harder decisions in your life. * Learn to think rationally, flexibly and be open to change. Most of life is about having a healthy balance. Start asking if ____ is productive or destructive instead of right/wrong or fair/unfair. Realize everything is contradicting, complicated and ever-changing. If you start to think in these ways you will improve your overall happiness, daily stress, self esteem and relationships. * I believe in client centered therapy where you are in control of what you work on in treatment. Nothing is set in stone and we can make changes as needed. We will take small, realistic steps towards your goals at a speed you are comfortable with. I will obviously encourage you to step outside your comfort zone but never throw you in the deep end and never make you discuss anything you don't want to. If you start talking about something and its too much, lets talk about tacos for a minute. Career: I've worked in the counseling field for 13 years in outpatient, inpatient acute care, and residential settings (A.K.A. standard office counseling, mental health hospitals, substance abuse rehabs). I received my Bachelor's degree in Psychology in 2010 and my Master's degree in Human Relations at the University of Oklahoma in 2015. I became a Licensed Professional Counselor in 2020.

26 years of experience offering psychology treatment
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. I graduated from the University of Colorado in Denver in 1995 with a master’s degree in counseling psychology/counseling education. Since then, I have amassed 26 years of experience seeing clients in a variety of settings. I have worked with high school students on their personal and professional development. At universities, I led workshops for non-traditional (older) students. I have developed teambuilding workshops for companies and provided career counseling for individuals. I have been invited to present personality type workshops to various community groups. I have worked for agencies and in private practice. More recently, I have worked with client’s in their homes, addressing the gamut of personal issues a person can face: depression, anxiety, grief/loss, anger issues, premarital/marital issues, suicide, addictions in the family, low self-esteem, family of origin issues, and others. I am currently licensed in the state of Oklahoma Early in my education, I was encouraged to develop my own style of counseling, and that is what I have done. I have many different theoretical techniques in my “counseling toolbox”: cognitive/thought oriented, behavioral oriented, past/present/and future oriented. I steer clear of typical “psychobabble,” but I am fond of a good analogy. I like to use humor, and I believe that we all can laugh at ourselves if we feel secure enough. Knowing that we are loved in spite of (or maybe even because of) our flaws can be quite encouraging. I will accept you, and your issues, because I know I have my share. In fact, I was once told that the difference between a therapist and a client is that a therapist is further along in sorting out their issues. The counseling setting for me can be similar to the old joke where a man loses his wallet on a dark street. Another man sees the first one searching around under a streetlight and asks if he can be of assistance. The first man explains that he has lost his wallet and would welcome any assistance. The two men comb the area thoroughly, looking everywhere to no avail. Finally the second man says to the first, “Are you sure you lost it here?” To which the first man replies, “No, I lost it down in that dark alley.” The second man says, “Well, Why are we looking here?!” The first man says, “Because the light is better here.” A good therapist can be a flashlight - helping you explore the darker areas of your life. But, don’t worry, we won’t go until you are ready. I look forward to searching with you.

I have been providing counseling for about 25 years. I worked my first 10 years with the elderly population. For the past 15 years I have worked with all age ranges in a variety of areas. I meet my clients where they are, using Client Centered focus, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, including Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (cause & effect) of behaviors. I also use EFIT (Emotionally Focused Individual Therapy) to assist with trauma. My clients are a critical part of my treatment plan development as my desire is to assist in their success - effectively working myself out of their lives.

I believe as a therapist it is important to be very interactive with my clients and offer an environment that is safe and conducive to sharing information openly. I regularly practice mindfulness meditation and encourage my clients to engage in said practice as part of our work together when possible. I have found it to be personally significant in my life and the practice has much to offer for all ages. In October 2024 I moved to Chiang Mai, Thailand in order to continue my training in mindfulness. I have been to Thailand many times and practiced my meditation skills in a variety of settings such as Buddhist monastery's and various workshop opportunities.

The average price of an in-person therapy session in the US with most therapists is $100 to $200 per hour. These prices may be higher in Laverne due to a higher cost of living, and a limited number of therapists taking new clients. The price also depends on the type of provider you are looking for.

- Counseling with a psychiatrist: $150-$500
- Counseling with therapists: $100-300

How do I know if online counseling is right for my family in Laverne?
One of the potentially rewarding aspects of working with a therapist is the validation and active listening they can provide. Your friends and loved ones may also be available to listen, but you may feel that they may lack the skills to provide objective guidance. Counselors are trained to respond to various concerns, symptoms, and mental health conditions.
Therapists in your city can support you toward a healthier emotional state, regardless of your mental health, life concerns, or healing needs. While supporting individuals in developing healthier habits, another good benefit of Laverne therapy is having an understanding, safe space with a non-judgmental party who can support you through challenging experiences.
Many people have sensitive topics that they may feel ashamed to discuss with their friends or partner. A therapist can help you confront these concerns and open up through unique methods of support. There are also many types of therapy, such as art therapy, where you may find you can express yourself through creativity instead of words with a psychotherapist.

Should I find a therapist or psychologist for therapy if I feel fine?
Some simply don't feel the need to see a psychologist. However, some people may avoid attending therapy due to stigma or preconceived notions of what it might entail. Although psychologists often support people with mental health conditions, you do not need a diagnosis or specific condition. You can discuss grief, relationship concerns, stress, or life changes and ask for general feedback. A Laverne licensed clinical social worker may help you gain power over your life and emotions while you navigate day-to-day experiences.
Gaining a new perspective on yourself through various therapies might allow you to improve your self-esteem, work through relationships, and gain a better sense of your mental health goals. The success you may find with a Laverne counselor can be dependent on your process.
People may also attend therapy for specific motives, such as bullying, an autism diagnosis, a desire to learn mindfulness meditation, personality concerns, trouble with office workers, specific phobias, and many other principles that a counselor can help with.

Is mental health care and therapy with a therapist worth it?
Therapy with a licensed counselor is effective and has the power to change individuals' lives. Each client is at a different stage of their emotional healing journey in life, as each human can be unique in their personality, expression, skills, and goals. An experienced clinician can target various symptoms, experiences, and personalities to help you feel your best and put you on the path to healing. Unlike advice from a friend, family, or non-professional, a mental health therapist has an understanding of various disorders like ADHD and depression with many hours of experience in treating adults in their practice. For this reason, seeing an evidence based licensed clinician in Laverne, Oklahoma can be worth it. Over 41 million adults in the US attend therapy services each year, showing it's a popular option and is proven to be effective.
Laverne has many clinicians who practice person or client-centered individual therapy in-person and through online sessions to assist clients in their healing journey. If you opt into online therapy, you might also be able to meet with providers all over the United States and change easily at any time. Many people struggling with anxiety and depression, substance abuse, body image issues, and more find therapists that are a good fit for them, feel supported, and gain further insight into their lives through internet-based therapy.
Do therapists judge you in therapy sessions during telehealth appointments?
The boundaries between you and a therapist are in place to help you and them regarding ethical concerns. Mental health professionals are held by ethical standards through the American Psychological Association (APA) and are not allowed to judge or harm their clients. If you are concerned about sharing details about yourself, feel free to withhold personal information. Their job in the therapeutic relationship is to create a safe place, help you gain a deeper understanding of your mental health, and support you. You might consider changing counselors if you don't feel safe or respected.
