About Dustie

Dustie Morgan-Scott is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Oklahoma with ten years of counseling experience and a long history in social services. She has supported people facing severe trauma and a wide range of challenges, including anxiety, depression, addictions, grief, and parenting concerns. Dustie brings steady, practical care and clear communication to sessions.

She keeps the room warm but direct. Dustie treats each person with respect and compassion and focuses on what the client wants to change.

Background and approach

She does not rely on labels to guide conversations. Instead she listens first and then works with the person to set simple, realistic goals. Dustie uses a blend of methods that match the need at hand.

She draws from client-centered work to center the client’s experience, from cognitive behavioral techniques to address thoughts and behaviors, and from EMDR when trauma processing is needed. Mindfulness and motivational interviewing also appear where they fit. Sessions tend to be practical and goal-oriented.

Dustie helps people build coping skills, manage stress, and make concrete steps toward healthier patterns. She pays attention to safety and pacing when trauma is a factor. Her background includes years supporting children and adults with complex trauma in social service roles.

That experience shapes a steady, realistic approach in therapy. Dustie aims to be a dependable partner in each person’s work toward change and recovery.

How her approaches fit with online therapy

Client-centered therapy focuses on understanding each person’s experience and building a trusting, respectful conversation. It helps when someone wants to be heard and guided to their own answers rather than given directives.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors affect feelings and daily life. It breaks bigger problems into manageable steps and teaches clear skills for changing unhelpful patterns, which works well for anxiety, depression, and stress.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, EMDR, is a trauma-focused approach that helps process distressing memories with structured procedures. It is used when trauma symptoms need careful, paced attention and can be adapted to remote work with planning.

Finding the best approach is a joint process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, strengths, and concerns, then try methods that match those priorities. Adjustments happen along the way so the work stays relevant and doable.

Online sessions through video calls, phone, live chat, or text messaging make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. These options offer flexibility for scheduling, let people participate from home, and support ongoing work between appointments. Licensed professionals can use these formats to teach skills, review progress, and stay connected as goals evolve.

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.

EMDR

A structured protocol used with distressing memories, pairing recall with guided attention tasks. Some therapists adapt it for video sessions; whether that fits is worth asking about directly.
