Rev. Leonard Shepherd

Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships

About

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor licensed in Oklahoma with over 10 years of experience providing psychotherapy, psychoeducation, counseling and life coaching. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, OCD, and ADHD, bipolar, and sexual and gender issues. I have also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse.

My therapy style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating everyone with respect, dignity, sensitivity, and compassion. I don’t believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines a family systems approach, choice theory, cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, psychodynamic and rational-emotive therapy. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.

It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you in that next step.

I look forward to working with you!

Is Online Therapy the Right Choice for Your Mental Health Journey?

Many people wonder whether online therapy can truly help. For common struggles such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, or adjusting to life changes, online therapy has been shown to be as effective as traditional in-person sessions for most people.

A major benefit is flexibility – clients can meet with a therapist in the format that fits their schedule and comfort level, whether by video call, phone, live chat, or in-app messaging. That adaptability often makes it easier to maintain consistent care amid busy lives.

Therapists who provide online services are licensed professionals, and clients have the option to change providers if they want a different therapeutic fit. For many people, online therapy offers a practical, evidence-informed way to access support for everyday mental health concerns.
