About Beverly
Beverly Nicholas is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) practicing in Oklahoma. She draws on 27 years of experience to help people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, parenting strain, anger, low self-esteem, and related concerns. She also supports those dealing with trauma, mood disorders, ADHD, and challenges tied to relationships and family life.
Beverly describes her approach as recovery-oriented and trauma-informed. She aims to meet people without judgment and to build practical steps toward change. Sessions focus on what feels heaviest right now and on small, achievable goals that make daily life feel more manageable.
In the first meeting she listens for what a person has been carrying and what they most want to change. Common early questions include what healing would look like, what causes the most distress, and what specific changes are hoped for. These answers guide treatment and keep work focused and relevant.
Her work blends client-centered care with practical techniques. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and solution-focused ideas to identify unhelpful patterns and test new ways of responding. Motivational interviewing helps when people are weighing change, and trauma-focused methods are used when past events are shaping current difficulties.
Beverly has a special interest in adoption and foster care issues and in challenges like abandonment and attachment. She welcomes people from many backgrounds and also supports those caring for others who face stress and burnout. The aim is steady, realistic progress rather than quick fixes.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy places the person's experience at the center of sessions and focuses on understanding what matters most to them. This approach helps people who need a listening space and gentle guidance to discover their own solutions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and teaches practical strategies to change unhelpful patterns. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, anger, and many everyday stressors because it gives clear skills to practice between sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work itself. Beverly collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and comfort level. She may draw on client-centered listening while adding CBT techniques or motivational interviewing when change is being considered.
If you are interested in online sessions, confirm the current session formats before booking since specific options are not listed in the biography. Online therapy can make scheduling easier, help fit sessions into a workday, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when that suits your routine. It can also allow conversations to continue when life circumstances change, while the therapist and client figure out the best pace and methods for progress.
