About Beverly
Beverly Nicholas is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Oklahoma who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, and trauma. She also supports parents managing parenting strain, people coping with anger or low self-esteem, and those navigating major life changes. Beverly brings 27 years of experience to her work and aims to meet each person without judgment.
Her style is practical and person-focused. She begins by asking what feels heaviest right now and what a meaningful change would look like.
How Beverly works
Early sessions focus on understanding the problems and setting clear, achievable goals. Conversations are paced to match what the client can handle. Beverly uses methods drawn from client-centered work, cognitive behavioral strategies, motivational interviewing, solution-focused techniques, and trauma-focused approaches.
She adapts tools to fit each client’s situation instead of forcing a single method. The goal is step-by-step progress that feels realistic. She has a particular interest in supporting women with children while welcoming clients from many backgrounds.
Her work includes help for people dealing with addiction, bipolar disorder, grief, compassion fatigue, attachment or abandonment concerns, and caregiving stress. Beverly emphasizes practical steps that help clients regain a sense of control and move toward a steadier life. To begin, she focuses on what brought a person to therapy and what healing would look like for them.
Sessions aim to build skills, improve coping, and reconnect people with their strengths over time.

How Beverly’s Approaches Translate to Online Work
Client-Centered Therapy centers on the person’s priorities, listening closely and shaping sessions around what matters most. This approach helps with stress, self-esteem, and adjusting to life changes by focusing on strengths and goals.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to shift unhelpful patterns. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with mood swings by giving clear tools people can practice between sessions.
Motivational Interviewing helps people who feel unsure about change by exploring ambivalence and finding personal motivation. It pairs well with work around addiction or making difficult life changes.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Beverly will talk with each client about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped in the past. She then recommends methods that match those needs and adjusts the plan over time in collaboration with the client.
If you plan to try online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking since the biography does not list formats. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when a full session is not needed. Talk with the therapist during the match process about how to shape sessions so they fit your schedule and goals.
