About Samayra

Samayra Tavakoli is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Oklahoma with 13 years of clinical experience helping people navigate difficult life moments. She works with individuals facing stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, low self-esteem and confidence challenges, relationship and family concerns, eating and body image issues, and a wide range of other struggles including parenting, career transitions, and compassion fatigue. Her practice also supports clients dealing with more complex presentations such as bipolar disorder, co-morbid conditions, dissociation, and attachment-related difficulties.

Samayra emphasizes an open, nonjudgmental therapeutic environment where thoughts and feelings can be explored safely. She encourages clients to take an active role in their care, engaging both in-session and through work between appointments to reach meaningful life goals. Her ideal client is motivated and willing to be challenged, ready to step beyond comfort zones to create lasting change.

In addition to clinical work, Samayra is a behavioral health science professor with a commitment to ongoing learning and to educating others. She blends evidence-informed approaches with compassion and practical coaching to support clients through transitions, healing from trauma, and building resilience.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Samayra brings several evidence-informed approaches into online work to meet a range of needs. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values, accept difficult thoughts and feelings, and take committed action toward a more meaningful life - useful for stress, anxiety, and motivation issues. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on understanding relational patterns that formed early in life and how they shape current relationships, which can be particularly helpful for attachment concerns, relationship struggles, and healing from abandonment or codependency. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers practical tools to identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, making it effective for depression, anxiety, and many everyday coping challenges.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Samayra works with each person to determine which methods best match their goals, preferences, and symptoms, adjusting the plan as therapy progresses to ensure the best fit.

Online therapy with Samayra is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility and accessibility. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life changes, and access care from different locations while working with a licensed professional.
