Anxiety and depression therapists and psychiatrists in Oklahoma

Hi, I’m glad you’re here. Hola, me alegro estás aquí. I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor in Oklahoma who works with individuals and families navigating anxiety, trauma, PTSD, substance use, and family-related challenges.

If life feels overwhelming, relationships feel strained, or past experiences are still affecting your present, you don’t have to carry that alone. I offer a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where we can work together to better understand what’s going on and create meaningful change.

My goal is to help you feel safer, stronger, and more in control of your life moving forward.

I’m a person-centered therapist who believes therapy is about helping you come back to yourself. I aim to create a space that’s warm, honest, and affirming, where you don’t have to shrink or overexplain who you are. My experience lies mainly in supporting folks who may be navigating anxiety, depression, and ADHD, pre- and postpartum mental health. We’ll work together in a way that feels practical and empowering. With a deep commitment to meeting people where they are, I would love to support you while you take a step toward enhancing your health and wellness.

It takes a lot of courage to reach out for help! Showing up that first time may be the hardest part of the journey. Being someone who has sat in that chair, I have a good idea how you are feeling. Being someone who has done her own personal work of therapy and helped hundreds of others with theirs, I also know how much better life can be! The emotional wounds may be heavy and the burden of experiences may seem like there is nothing that can be done to make it better. Medication may help, but the feelings can make living feel like swimming with a shot put ball. As a therapist, I strive to come alongside those struggling with anxiety, depression, grief, and bereavement to provide support and understanding, education and encouragement. I have worked with clients from age 5 to 103, and what I have found to be most important is the connection (or the “fit”) of the therapist and client. You need a therapist you can bring your authentic self to. You are hiring me to do a job, to help you think, feel, and behave better. You will be best served if we have a good connection. I want that for you, even if it is not me, so never be afraid to interview a few therapists before deciding! After all, if it is me, I will be in your corner and I will challenge you, at the same time. You want to know you chose wisely for yourself.

As a Licensed Marital and Family Therapist, my goal is to help you uncover your true potential and build a life worth celebrating.

I specialize in helping individuals, couples, and families understand and resolve current challenges by exploring the long-standing patterns and perceptions that may be holding you back.

By integrating complementary therapy techniques, I provide a supportive space to work through difficult situations and move toward a more fulfilling future."

Hello, I’m Elizabeth Ashley Butler, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with nine years of experience in the mental health field and five years as a fully licensed therapist. My work is grounded in the belief that a strong and healthy client-therapist relationship is essential to successful outcomes in counseling. I see my role as a facilitator—creating a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space that fosters honesty, trust, healing, and personal growth.

I currently provide therapy to individuals, families, couples and adolescents from diverse ethnic, cultural, and socioeconomic backgrounds. I specialize in working with clients facing challenges related to trauma, anger, anxiety, depression, PTSD, OCD, eating disorders, obesity, stress, life transitions, communication issues, workplace concerns, LGBTQ+ matters, and various mental health diagnoses.

Clinically, I draw from a range of evidence-based approaches tailored to each client’s needs. My core modalities include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Functional Family Therapy (FFT), along with other integrative techniques as appropriate.

From both personal and professional experience, I’ve come to understand that connection is foundational, acceptance is transformative, and meaningful change—while often challenging—is possible. Change can lead to healing, emotional strength, and a higher quality of life. It also opens the door to new opportunities and helps us break free from generational cycles that no longer serve us.

It would be my privilege to walk alongside you on your journey toward healing, self-awareness, and growth.

I’m passionate about helping clients navigate anxiety, depression, life challenges and transitions, identity, grief and loss, and relational challenges with compassion and practical support. I utilize evidence based treatment depending on your needs and treatment goals. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with eight years of experience in community mental health in Oklahoma, where I provided individual therapy, group therapy, and crisis intervention. I hold a BA in Psychology from Harding University and an MA in Clinical Psychology from Wheaton College. Before returning to the U.S. in 2023, I lived abroad in France and North Africa for over seven years, an experience that deepened my understanding of culture, transition, and resilience.

I believe everyone has a story to tell and the power to write their own future. I have over ten years experience in the mental health field and have been a licensed therapist for five years. I work with all age groups and like to meet individuals where they are and walk with them through their journey to better mental health.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor based in Oklahoma working with individuals who are navigating stress, anxiety, life transitions, and relationship challenges. Many of my clients are highly functioning on the outside but feel overwhelmed, stuck or uncertain underneath. I provide a supportive, grounded space where you can slow down, sort through what is going on and begin moving forward with clarity. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialogue and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I enjoy helping others gain knowledge and an understanding of themselves; helping manage their thoughts and emotions; gaining peace and improved relationships in their lives. I am here to support and empower you in that journey.

MESSAGE ME FOR SCHEDULING! I have more availability than you have access to. Life experience, work, education and clients have shaped me into a therapist that strives to be genuine.
