About
Theresa Smith is a licensed professional counselor practicing in Oklahoma with 20 years of experience. She earned her master’s degree from Oral Roberts University in 2008 and holds licensure to practice as a professional counselor in Oklahoma (LPC04351).
She began her career supporting women who experienced domestic violence and sexual abuse, and later expanded her work to include male victims and individuals who had been perpetrators. That early work shaped her ability to engage men with emotional and behavioral concerns.
Over the years she encountered many people affected by substance use, which led her to pursue additional education and hands-on experience in alcohol and drug counseling. She has worked in drug court settings and in private substance abuse counseling for the past nine years.
In private practice she has supported people dealing with depression, anxiety, trauma, abandonment, PTSD, grief, attachment and shame issues, and anger concerns. Her approach is client-centered and draws on cognitive behavioral therapy, compassion-focused techniques, and motivational strategies. As a Christian, she will incorporate Biblical counseling and prayer when a client wants spiritual support. She aims to treat everyone with compassion and respect, avoiding shame or marginalization, and looks forward to helping clients find healthier mental well-being and a more satisfying life.

Is Online Therapy the Right Choice for Your Mental Health Journey?
Online therapy can be an effective option for many common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and navigating life changes. Research and clinical practice indicate that, for these sorts of issues, remote therapy often produces outcomes comparable to traditional in-person care.
A major benefit of online therapy is flexibility - clients can connect in the format that fits their needs and schedule, whether by video call, phone session, live chat, or in-app messaging. That variety makes it easier to integrate therapy into a busy life and to maintain consistency across weeks and months.
Therapists who provide online services are licensed professionals, and clients have the option to request a different clinician if they need a better fit. For many people confronting everyday mental health concerns, online therapy offers a practical and accessible path to support and progress.
