About Gayle
Gayle DuBois is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in Oklahoma with 27 years of experience. She works with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, eating and food-related issues, depression, and related concerns. Gayle also supports people facing relationship strain, parenting pressures, grief, and self-esteem challenges.
She has a long history of working with children, adolescents, and families and brings that perspective into her practice. Her approach centers on practical steps and clear goals. Sessions focus on what a person wants to change and on small, doable actions to get there.
Gayle uses Solution-Focused Therapy and elements of Choice Theory to help clarify priorities and move toward them deliberately. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques for patterns of thinking that feed anxiety, obsessions, compulsions, panic, or depressive symptoms. Conversations are concrete and task-oriented, with strategies you can try between sessions.
For people dealing with social anxiety and phobia, she addresses avoidance patterns, anxious thinking, and gradual exposures that fit the person’s comfort level. When eating or body image problems are present, sessions include practical planning and support around food-related routines.
Sessions are offered in English and operate through a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, visitors complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session using the See online therapy options button.
How her approaches translate to online work
Gayle uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and to build alternative skills. CBT is often used for anxiety, panic, obsessions, and low mood by practicing new ways of thinking and testing them in everyday situations. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on setting clear, short-term goals and finding small steps that lead toward them, which can help when someone is ready to make specific changes.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Gayle will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they decide which techniques to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.
The biography does not specify session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around work, school, or caregiving by reducing travel time and allowing shorter check-ins when needed. It also supports doing practical homework between meetings, such as behavioral experiments, exposure steps, and thought records, which pair well with CBT and solution-focused work.
