Trauma and PTSD therapists & psychiatrists in Oklahoma City, OK

I’m a licensed psychologist with over 30 years of experience helping adults navigate anxiety, trauma, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, and life transitions. My style is warm, supportive, and down‐to‐earth—I believe real healing happens when you feel safe to be yourself. I draw from Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help you find practical ways to manage stress, build confidence, and move forward. My goal is to meet you where you are and work together toward a calmer, more balanced life. I do not prescribe medication.

My background, before becoming a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, was in photography and performing arts. I have always been interested in healing, self-expression, and creativity, and this informs my work as a therapist. I am passionate about using curiosity, humor, and the spontaneity of the moment to explore issues of the past, present and future.

I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor with experience working as counselor in group settings as well as various ages from kids to adults.

As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I have a passion for helping people work through life's challenges, assisting them in reaching their full potential, and figuring out what it is that they most want from life. I believe that being heard, understood, and accepted exactly as you are is where healing begins.

Hi my name is Jamie and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and have a Master's degree in Counseling Psychology from NW Oklahoma State University. I have been in this field for approximately 14 years. I prefer the direct approach so people don't have to guess what I am thinking. I enjoy humor and am very down to earth. I work with many areas of treatment, including but not limited to Cognitive Behavioral therapy, Solution-focused, Trauma- focused, art therapy, and complex trauma therapy. I see men, women, and children for individual and group/family therapy.

Credentials and Experience

I'm a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Oklahoma and Colorado, a board-certified counselor (NCC), and hold a PhD in Counselor Education and Supervision - which means I don't just practice therapy, I train and supervise other therapists. That clinical depth shapes everything about how I work with clients.

My specialization is neurocounseling: integrating what we know about the brain and nervous system into practical, grounded therapy. I also hold specialized training in telehealth - so working with you virtually isn't a workaround, it's where I do my best work.

I work with adults navigating anxiety, burnout, trauma, identity, and the particular kind of exhaustion that comes from holding everything together for too long.

If you’ve been carrying too much for too long, therapy can be a place to finally exhale. I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Texas and Oklahoma, and I work with individuals and couples navigating anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, relationship issues, life transitions, trauma, and recovery from narcissistic abuse. Many of my clients feel emotionally exhausted, stuck in unhealthy patterns, disconnected from themselves, or unsure how to move forward. My goal is to offer a compassionate, supportive space where you feel safe, understood, and empowered to heal, grow, and make meaningful changes.

Lindsey Payton has been working in mental health since 2012. During her work in the therapeutic field, she has found her passion for helping those heal from traumatic events that impact how they view themselves or show up in their relationships. She enjoys working with those on a deeper personal level, as well as couples working through finding their connection.

Imagine what life would be like if you had the space to explore the nuances of the struggles you've been battling. Making the decision to seek professional help is probably one that you have been pondering over for awhile. I specialize in working with multicultural individuals, in particular with South Asian/Middle Eastern natives, as well as those affected by chronic illnesses, issues related to parenting, immigration, and spirituality.

If you're feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, grief, relationship challenges, family conflict, or life transitions, you're not alone. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling stuck, emotionally exhausted, disconnected from loved ones, or unsure how to move forward. Others are navigating communication struggles, changes in important relationships, women's issues, or difficult life circumstances that leave them feeling overwhelmed and unsupported.

As a Licensed Professional Counselor with 8 years of experience, I provide a supportive, collaborative space where you can feel heard, understood, and respected. My goal is to help you identify what's contributing to your challenges, build on your strengths, and develop practical tools that support healing, healthier relationships, and meaningful personal growth.
