Individual Counseling in Tulsa, OK
Find Healing, Clarity, and a Way Forward
Life can be full of responsibilities, expectations, and quiet struggles that no one else seems to see. You may look like you have it all together, but inside you feel tired, stuck, or unsure how to move forward.
Individual counseling offers a space to slow down, reflect, and begin to make sense of what’s been weighing on you. It’s a chance to explore your thoughts and emotions in a safe, nonjudgmental environment and to begin creating the change you’ve been craving.
At A Way Forward Counseling, I provide individual counseling for adults in Tulsa, OK, and nearby areas including Bixby, Jenks, Glenpool, and South Tulsa. Together, we’ll uncover the patterns that keep you feeling trapped and help you rediscover a stronger, more peaceful version of yourself.
When You Feel Stuck or Overwhelmed
Most people come to therapy because something that used to work isn’t working anymore. Maybe you’re managing anxiety that never seems to quiet down. Maybe your relationships feel strained, or you’re wrestling with self-doubt that won’t go away. You might be coping with loss, navigating a major life transition, or just trying to make sense of who you are now.
Through individual counseling, you can begin to:
Understand why certain emotions or reactions keep resurfacing
Learn how your past experiences shape how you think and relate to others
Build a healthier relationship with yourself
Develop practical skills for managing stress, conflict, and uncertainty
Whatever brings you here, therapy is an opportunity to pause and take an honest look at what’s working and what isn’t.
My Approach to Individual Therapy
I use a psychodynamic approach, which means we explore your personal history and the deeper roots of your emotions, behaviors, and relationship patterns. Our early relationships shape what we expect from ourselves and from others. By making those patterns conscious, you can begin to respond with choice instead of habit.
When trauma or painful memories are part of your story, I also integrate Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), an evidence-based method that helps you process past experiences and reduce their ongoing emotional impact.
In our work together, we’ll focus on understanding, not judgment. My goal is to help you uncover the “why” beneath your struggles, so you can find greater clarity, compassion, and control over your life.
What It’s Like to Work With Me
My clients often tell me they feel truly heard and understood in our sessions. I pay close attention—not only to what’s being said, but also to what’s not. I’m comfortable with quiet reflection and believe that some of the most meaningful insights emerge when we have space to think and feel deeply.
Therapy with me is collaborative and steady. You set the pace. I’ll guide the process with curiosity, respect, and genuine care, helping you move from awareness to lasting change.
What You Can Expect in Counseling
Therapy is not about being told what to do. It’s about slowing down, making sense of what you’re feeling, and finding new ways to move forward. Many of my clients describe individual counseling as a space that brings both relief and insight where they can finally say the things they’ve never said out loud.
Over time, our work can help you:
Feel calmer and less reactive in daily life
Recognize and shift unhelpful thought patterns
Improve communication and relationships
Develop self-compassion and emotional resilience
Reconnect with a sense of hope and purpose
Why “A Way Forward”
I named my practice A Way Forward because healing doesn’t look the same for everyone. There’s no single roadmap to growth. My role is to help you find your way forward. I aim to help you make sense of the past, reconnect with your strengths, and begin creating a life that feels more authentic and fulfilling.
