Gayle DuBois

Gayle DuBois is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Oklahoma with 27 years of experience. She helps people who are anxious, stressed, depressed, or facing changes that feel overwhelming. Parents worried about eating or food-related issues will find clear, direct support focused on practical steps.

She uses straightforward methods aimed at setting and reaching goals. Sessions focus on what a person can change and the next small steps to take. Gayle draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy to build plans that fit everyday life.

Her background includes long experience working with children, adolescents, and related concerns such as self-injury and eating disorders. That history shapes a calm, goal-oriented style in sessions. She keeps explanations simple and actionable so people can try things between meetings.

People who work with her can expect work on coping skills, managing anxiety and panic, and techniques to address obsessive thoughts and behaviors. She also supports those facing grief, relationship stress, parenting strain, or identity questions related to LGBT issues.

Gayle emphasizes collaboration. She helps set realistic short-term goals and reviews progress regularly. The focus stays on practical changes that fit into busy lives and the push for steady, manageable improvement.

How her approaches guide online therapy

Gayle uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy in clear, usable ways. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and helps people try new behaviors to reduce anxiety, panic, or compulsive habits. Solution-Focused Therapy centers on setting practical goals and identifying the next small steps toward those goals, which can be helpful for coping with life changes, grief, or eating and food-related concerns.

Finding a good approach is a team effort. Gayle will work with each person to decide which methods fit their concerns and daily life. She checks progress and adjusts plans so the work stays useful and realistic rather than one-size-fits-all.

The practical upside of online therapy is that sessions can fit into busy schedules and reduce travel time. Online work can make it easier to follow up after a difficult week, try short coaching-style sessions, or use techniques at home as they are learned. The therapist's biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm the current online and in-person options before booking to find what will work best for your routine.
