Anita Novey brings 27 years of clinical experience to her work, supporting people coping with stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship difficulties, grief, depression, intimacy-related concerns, and self-esteem challenges. She offers an approachable, steady presence for individuals seeking to put their lives back on track.
She is a licensed professional counselor in Oklahoma, holding LPC credentials (license number LPC01999). Her formal education includes a Master of Arts in Personnel and Organizational Psychology earned in 1992 from the University of Central Oklahoma in Edmond, Oklahoma, and a Bachelor of Business Administration completed in 1988 at Central State University in Edmond.
Novey spent a significant portion of her career employed by the Federal Bureau of Prisons. Beginning in 1998, she served as a Drug Treatment Specialist working with adult male offenders who had substance use disorders. Prior to that role she worked seven years in human resources and unit management, and she concluded that chapter of her career due to mandatory retirement.
Although her work with addiction relied primarily on cognitive-behavioral approaches, she also provided counseling around grief and loss and a wide range of relationship issues. She values helping people rediscover their potential and supports clients as they grow and take control of the next chapters of their lives.
Many people wonder whether online therapy can truly help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or navigating life changes, online therapy has been shown to be just as effective as traditional in-person sessions.
A major advantage is flexibility. Clients can connect in the way that fits their needs and comfort level - through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging - which makes it easier to fit therapy into a busy life.
Licensed professionals provide care in these formats, and if a different therapeutic fit is needed, clients typically have the option to switch therapists. For many people, online therapy offers an accessible, effective route to address everyday mental health concerns and move toward their goals.
