Karen Peck, LPC

Karen Peck is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Oklahoma with 18 years of experience. She has spent nearly two decades helping people navigate substance use challenges, trauma, grief, and major life changes. Karen emphasizes a supportive, strengths-focused way of working and encourages people to take steps toward change at their own pace.

She listens for what matters most to each person and builds from the strengths already present in their story. Sessions focus on practical skills to manage difficult feelings, reduce harmful behaviors, and rebuild daily routines. The aim is to make small changes that add up to clearer choices and steadier days.

Her approach draws on several evidence-informed methods, including cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior tools, and mindfulness practices. She also uses motivational interviewing and trauma-focused work when those fit a person's needs. Treatment often blends skill-building, emotional processing, and goal setting.

People reach out for help with addictions, PTSD or trauma, grief, parenting stress, anger, self-esteem, and career questions. Karen also works with concerns tied to first responder experiences and military service. She frames progress as a collaborative process and checks in regularly to adjust goals and methods.

To begin, people complete a brief matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions based on the therapist's availability. Costs vary by location and follow a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

How specific approaches help in online therapy

Karen uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try small experiments to change behavior. CBT is often used for problems like anxiety, problematic substance use patterns, and low mood by focusing on practical steps and planning.

She also draws on dialectical behavior therapy tools to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills. DBT-style skills can be useful when strong emotions trigger risky behavior or make daily life feel overwhelming.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, try methods that fit those goals, and adjust over time based on what helps. This is a collaborative process that aims to match techniques to each person's needs and preferences.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are available. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy day, shorten check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It can also allow people to continue care while managing work, parenting, or treatment schedules, depending on the formats offered.
