About Beverly

Beverly Nicholas is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in Oklahoma with 27 years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, parenting concerns, self-esteem and anger. She also supports people dealing with trauma, depression, bipolar disorder, ADHD, relationship and family problems.

Beverly uses plain conversation and practical steps in sessions. She begins by asking what feels heaviest right now and what a small, realistic change would look like. Early meetings focus on what has brought someone to therapy and what they most want to work on next.

Her approach draws on several evidence-informed methods. She uses Client-Centered techniques to listen and reflect, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and Motivational Interviewing when change feels uncertain. She also brings Solution-Focused and Trauma-Focused work to practical problem solving and recovery from difficult experiences.

Sessions aim to identify immediate coping strategies and then build skills for longer-term change. Beverly notes patterns that get in the way and helps people try different, small behaviors to see what fits. She supports parents and people carrying caregiver stress as well as those coping with addiction, grief, body image, codependency, or communication problems.

Her practice emphasizes respectful, nonjudgmental work that focuses on measurable steps forward. New clients are invited to describe current concerns so the therapist and client can set clear, manageable goals together.

How her approaches work for remote care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what matters to the client, which helps clarify goals and priorities during remote conversations. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on noticing thought patterns and trying different behaviors; it works well when people want concrete tools to reduce anxiety or change habits. Motivational Interviewing helps when someone feels stuck about change by exploring ambivalence and building personal reasons to try something different.

Choosing the best approach is part of the work. Beverly will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and goals. Early sessions are used to identify priorities and try approaches in short, practical ways to see what helps.

The original profile does not list which session formats are offered. Please confirm current session options before booking so you know what is available. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Therapists can adapt the work for conversations that focus on coping skills, problem solving, or planning next steps so people can use what they learn between meetings.
