Therapist in Bixby, OK
Helping You Find A Way Forward
Life doesn’t always go the way we imagined. Sometimes the path feels uncertain—whether you’re navigating anxiety, relationship conflict, or simply feeling stuck and unsure what comes next. You might be functioning on the outside, but inside, you’re tired of holding it all together.
At A Way Forward Counseling in Bixby, Oklahoma, I help adults slow down, make sense of what’s happening beneath the surface, and start moving toward lasting change. Therapy is a space to reflect, process, and rediscover parts of yourself that may have gotten lost along the way.
You don’t have to figure it all out alone. There is a way forward.
A Safe, Supportive Space for Adults
As a therapist in Bixby, OK, I work with men and women who are ready to better understand themselves and their relationships. My clients often come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or unsure of how to make meaningful change.
Some of the concerns I commonly help with include:
Anxiety and overthinking that make it hard to relax or be present
Depression and self-criticism that leave you feeling stuck or unmotivated
Relationship conflict or communication issues with partners or family
Life transitions—like empty nesting, career changes, or loss—that stir up grief and uncertainty
Trauma or painful past experiences that continue to shape how you see yourself and others
You don’t need to have everything neatly defined before coming to therapy. Whether you’re in crisis or simply curious about why certain patterns keep repeating, this is a space to talk openly, without judgment.
A Thoughtful, Insight-Oriented Approach
My work is grounded in psychodynamic therapy, which means we look beyond surface-level symptoms to explore the roots of what you’re experiencing. Our early relationships and experiences shape how we view ourselves and how we relate to others. By bringing these patterns into awareness, we can begin to loosen their hold.
Together, we’ll:
Explore your personal history and emotional landscape
Identify recurring themes and beliefs that keep you feeling stuck
Strengthen your emotional vocabulary so you can name what you’re feeling
Practice new ways of relating—to yourself and the people you love
I also draw from Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) when trauma or past pain plays a central role. These structured tools help make sense of what happened, shift unhelpful beliefs, and support healing at a deeper level.
What Therapy Can Offer
Therapy isn’t about being told what to do—it’s about gaining clarity, confidence, and compassion for yourself. Many of my clients say that through our work together, they begin to:
Understand themselves in new and more forgiving ways
Feel calmer and more in control of their emotions
Build stronger, more authentic relationships
Let go of old patterns that no longer serve them
Experience a sense of hope and possibility again
Healing doesn’t happen overnight, but it happens through honest conversation, reflection, and small shifts over time. My role is to walk with you through that process—with patience, insight, and respect for your pace.
I named my practice A Way Forward because there isn’t just one path to healing. Everyone’s story is different, and my job isn’t to tell you what yours should be—it’s to help you uncover it.
Clients often describe me as deeply attentive and empathetic. I listen closely—to what’s said, and to what’s unsaid. I don’t rush to fill silence or push you past what you’re ready for. Therapy with me isn’t about judgment or quick advice; it’s about helping you make meaning of your experiences and find strength in your own resilience.
Even when the work feels difficult, I hold space for both the pain and the hope that coexist in healing.
