Amy Phelps , LPC

Amy Phelps is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Oklahoma who helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy concerns, and issues around eating and body image. She also supports people facing grief, addictions, ADHD, career stress, parenting strain, and compassion fatigue. Amy combines practical skill with a long-term commitment to recovery and growth.

She draws on about 18 years of clinical experience and a person-centered, trauma-informed stance. Sessions tend to focus on clear goals and real-life steps. Amy uses a mix of methods to match each person’s needs rather than one fixed routine.

Amy emphasizes collaboration. She talks with clients about values, daily patterns, and coping tools. That approach includes attention to attachment and relationship dynamics while teaching skills for managing mood, anxiety, and difficult memories.

Her background includes clinical supervision and leadership roles that shaped how she mentors other clinicians. She brings both clinical experience and personal recovery perspectives into her work, and she values transparency and accountability in the process.

People who seek her care can expect a direct but compassionate style. Amy aims to help clients notice patterns, try practical skills, and track progress. She frames healing as a gradual process shaped by small changes and steady effort.

How therapy approaches guide online care

Amy uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify what matters to them and take small, values-driven steps. ACT often helps with anxiety, stress, and making changes that feel meaningful rather than perfect.

She also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early and current relationships shape feelings and behavior. That work can help with intimacy, trust, abandonment concerns, and improving communication in close relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Amy will talk with clients about their goals and preferences and tailor techniques from these approaches in collaboration. The process is exploratory and adjusts as needs and priorities change.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and comfort levels. Video allows face-to-face conversation for skill practice and emotional processing. Phone sessions can be a low-bandwidth option or useful when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging make it easier to check in between appointments or fit brief check-ins into a busy day. These options aim to make attending therapy more flexible and consistent with daily life.
