Cicely Charlson, LPC

Cicely Charlson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Oklahoma with 11 years of experience in the mental health field. She has provided care in both outpatient clinics and in-home settings, building a depth of experience in helping people manage stress and anxiety, navigate relationship and family conflicts, and work through trauma and abuse. Her practice also includes support for anger management, life transitions, intimacy-related concerns, parenting challenges, self-esteem, career matters, ADHD, and coping with depression and mild autism.

Charlson draws on evidence-based approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) for trauma, and Anger Management Therapy to tailor treatment to each person's needs. As an LPC she holds a state credential that authorizes her to provide professional counseling services in Oklahoma, and she uses those tools to help clients build practical coping skills and clearer decision-making.

Her work is informed by personal experience growing up in a household where communication and healthy coping were limited. That background motivates a collaborative style focused on growth, mindfulness, and increased peace. Charlson partners with clients to develop stronger communication and coping strategies so they can move forward with greater resilience and confidence.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and changing patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to anxiety, stress, depression, and everyday challenges. It is practical and skills-oriented, often involving exercises to build coping strategies and improve decision-making.

Cognitive Processing Therapy, used for trauma, helps individuals process and reframe distressing memories and beliefs that follow traumatic events. It supports people in reducing trauma-related symptoms and regaining a sense of control over their reactions and relationships.

Anger Management Therapy offers tools to recognize triggers, change responses, and develop healthier ways to express and channel strong emotions. It can be helpful for relationship conflicts, family stress, and situations that repeatedly provoke intense anger.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Cicely works collaboratively with clients to choose or combine methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress is made.

Online therapy through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging provides flexibility for clients balancing work, family, or mobility needs. These options make it easier to maintain regular sessions and access consistent support from licensed professionals and therapists without compromising continuity of care.
