About Anita
Anita Brison is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) with ten years of experience working in Oklahoma. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, family problems, anger, and depression. Anita commonly works with young adults facing the pressures of early adulthood, including identity, work, study, and relationship changes.
Her practice emphasizes practical conversation and straightforward skills. She listens to what is happening now, then helps people try small changes that can feel manageable day to day. Sessions often focus on communication skills, coping tools for strong emotions, and steps to reduce overwhelming stress.
Anita uses several well-known approaches to guide her work. She draws on client-centered ideas to keep the person's goals central. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thinking patterns and shift behavior. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills are used when emotion regulation and impulsivity are present.
She also uses motivational interviewing to help people clarify what matters to them and find the motivation to act. Solution-focused techniques are applied when clients want short-term, goal-oriented work. These methods are mixed to match what an individual needs in the moment.
Anita has experience supporting people through relationship breakdowns, grief, feelings of emptiness, and the strain of caregiving or blended family dynamics. She speaks English and practices in Oklahoma, holding LPC credentials. If someone wants to start, she asks them to complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling a first session.
How Anita's approaches translate to online work
Client-centered therapy focuses on the person's own goals and perspective, giving them space to set priorities and guide sessions. This approach helps when you're figuring out what matters most as you move into adulthood. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts, feelings, and behaviors together and offers concrete exercises to reduce anxiety and change unhelpful patterns. It's useful for stress, low mood, and managing worry.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Anita will talk with the client about goals, try methods that fit, and change course when something isn't helping. The process is collaborative and practical, with regular check-ins about progress and what to do next.
The profile does not list specific online session formats, so confirm the options before booking. Online work can make scheduling easier and help sessions fit around classes, shifts, or busy days. It can also allow shorter check-ins when time is limited or let someone avoid camera use if that feels better. Ask about formats when you complete the short matching questionnaire so arrangements match daily life and needs.
