Over three decades of practice have given her experience with a range of issues tied to relationships and attachment. This includes adoption and foster care concerns, abandonment and attachment issues, blended family challenges, and caregiver stress.
Dr. Wallace also works with people facing role strain from first responder work, recovery from disaster-related stress, and the fallout of divorce or separation. She pays attention to guilt, shame, forgiveness, and how family of origin patterns shape current problems.
Her approach combines practical problem solving with respectful listening. Clients can expect clear conversation about goals and small steps toward change. Dr. Wallace is licensed in Oklahoma as an LCSW and works in English.
How therapeutic approaches guide online work
Dr. Wallace uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on changing day-to-day patterns and improving relationships. One common approach is problem-focused work that identifies a few clear goals and practices specific skills to reach them, which helps with communication problems and parenting challenges. Another approach emphasizes addressing trauma and attachment by creating steady, manageable steps to process difficult experiences and rebuild trust in relationships.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss options with each person, consider current needs and goals, and adapt methods over time. Clients and the therapist work together to decide what feels most helpful and realistic.
