Robert Skuy

Robert Skuy is a licensed clinical social worker practicing in Oklahoma. He holds a license to provide family and individual therapy (OK LCSW 5721) and brings ten years of professional experience to his work.

Before focusing full time on therapy, he spent many years in roles such as teaching and supporting adults with developmental disabilities - including 15 years working directly with that population. He has also served the State of Oklahoma in Adult Protection Services, Developmental Disabilities, and Child Welfare, and has experience working with individuals and families involved in Child Welfare investigations.

His clinical work has included helping people facing depression, anxiety, emotional and physical abuse, and relationship concerns. He works in a warm, nonjudgmental manner and prefers flexible treatment approaches rather than fixed labels, adapting methods to the needs of each person.

Robert uses a range of therapeutic techniques, including cognitive behavioral therapy, EMDR, dialectical behavior therapy, and play therapy - noting that play-based approaches can benefit adults as well as children. He continues regular professional training and has recently explored mindfulness practices, which he reports have helped him become more productive.

Robert understands that reaching out for help can be difficult. He aims to listen without judgment, offer practical guidance when appropriate, and collaborate with clients to create individualized treatment plans to address the issues that brought them to therapy. He does not provide Christian-based therapy, does not identify as Christian in his spiritual beliefs, and does not offer services that include Bible-based counsel or prayer.
