About Desiree

Desiree Jones is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Oklahoma with 12 years of experience. She focuses on family and parenting concerns alongside stress, anxiety, grief, and life transitions. Desiree uses straightforward, supportive conversation to help people sort priorities and take practical next steps.

Her style is warm and respectful while staying rooted in real-world problem solving. She sees each person as the expert on their own life and builds on existing strengths.

Background and approach

Sessions often start with what matters most right now, then move toward small, achievable goals. Desiree blends listening with gentle guidance so clients can test new ways of handling difficult moments. Her background includes work across many common life stressors such as postpartum depression, bereavement, forgiveness, and money or career worries.

She also addresses blended family issues, fertility concerns, and challenges tied to young adulthood. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy inform her practical approach. Desiree also supports people dealing with compassion fatigue and ADHD challenges, helping them develop routines and coping tools that fit daily life.

She focuses on lowering overwhelm and building confidence through repeated, manageable steps. For parents feeling stuck or families facing change, she offers a steady, nonjudgmental presence. The goal is usable tools and clearer next steps, not overly complex plans.

Desiree encourages small actions that make a real difference over time.

How her approaches guide online family and parenting support

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and meeting each person where they are. It emphasizes understanding your experience and building on your strengths, which can help with parenting stress, relationship tensions, or grief.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps identify unhelpful thinking and test new behaviors. It is practical and goal-oriented, useful for anxiety, depression, and managing daily routines like sleep or time management.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. She will talk with clients about goals, try methods that match those goals, and adjust the plan over time. The client and therapist work together to pick tools that feel useful in everyday life.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet that fit busy family schedules. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that feels best, while phone sessions can be simpler for short check-ins. Live chat and text messaging give ongoing support between sessions and make it easier to follow through on small steps. These options help people access care from home or wherever they manage family life.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
