Cicely Charlson, LPC

Cicely Charlson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Oklahoma. She draws on 11 years in the mental health field to help people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress and anxiety. She offers a calm, practical approach for those trying to manage everyday pressure and recurring worry.

She focuses on relationship strain, family conflict, trauma and abuse, anger, intimacy concerns, parenting stress, and life transitions. Cicely also has experience supporting people with depression, coping with career changes, self-esteem struggles, and attention-related challenges. Her work is grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, a hands-on method that looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going.

Cicely’s background includes time in outpatient clinics and in-home settings, so she is familiar with different life circumstances and routines. In sessions she uses straightforward tools for managing symptoms, improving communication, and making decisions with more clarity. She emphasizes practical steps that people can try between meetings.

Her own story - growing up where anger and poor communication were common - shaped her interest in healthy coping and better connection. That experience informs how she helps others build stronger habits and more peaceful interactions. Clients work together with her to set realistic goals and practice new skills.

People who meet with Cicely can expect a supportive, goal-oriented process that focuses on growth and steady progress. She aims to help people gain more mindfulness, clearer choices, and better ways of handling life’s challenges.

How Cicely Uses CBT Online and What to Expect

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. It uses clear exercises and homework to help reduce anxiety, manage stress, and change patterns that keep problems going.

When trauma-related issues are present, Cicely draws on methods that help people make sense of painful experiences in manageable steps. These approaches aim to reduce reactivity and improve everyday functioning after difficult events.

Finding the right approach usually happens together. Cicely works collaboratively to learn your goals, strengths, and daily routines. Then she tailors techniques and pacing so the work fits your needs and preferences rather than forcing one method on everyone.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, like scheduling a meeting during a lunch break or joining from a quieter room at home. Different online formats may suit different needs, so confirm current session options before booking. Sessions are meant to deliver practical tools, check progress, and adjust strategies so therapy supports your real-world challenges.
