About Nick
Nick Livingston is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Oklahoma with seven years of experience. He works with adults on common early-adulthood issues such as stress, anxiety, relationships, career questions, and challenges tied to identity and self-esteem. He also supports people facing addiction, trauma, grief, bipolar concerns, ADHD, and parenting-related stress.
Nick emphasizes collaboration. Sessions focus on identifying strengths, learning practical skills, and trying small changes to improve daily functioning. He uses straightforward tools to help people notice unhelpful thinking, build healthier habits, and manage intense emotions.
His practice draws on Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, with elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Existential thinking, and mindfulness. That combination means conversations about values and meaning sit alongside concrete skills for emotion regulation and behavior change.
Nick has worked with a wide range of concerns including intimacy-related issues, sleep problems, compassion fatigue, attachment and abandonment concerns, body image, caregiving stress, and issues connected to adoption or blended families. He also notes experience with kink-aware topics and support for LGBTQ people navigating a difficult social environment.
He is open about medication conversations, including medical marijuana, and can discuss how pharmacological options fit with counseling and coping strategies. To begin, readers should confirm current session options and scheduling details before booking.
How his approaches work for online sessions
Nick integrates Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in practical ways. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, reflecting what matters to the client, and shaping sessions around their goals. It helps when someone needs a space to sort out decisions, identity, or relationship concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy teaches concrete skills for changing unhelpful thoughts and routines. It is useful for anxiety, low mood, sleep problems, and building coping strategies.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Nick will collaborate with each person to decide which methods to emphasize based on their current needs, goals, and preferences. That means sessions can shift from skills practice to values-based conversations as needed.
The biography does not list specific session delivery methods, so confirm current online session options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and remove travel time. Talk with him about scheduling, length of sessions, and whether audio-only or video is preferable for your situation to find a practical setup that fits everyday life.
