About Kelley

Kelley Tubbs is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Oklahoma with 17 years of experience. He focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, depression, and relationship and intimacy-related concerns. Kelley helps people develop coping strategies and manage symptoms so they can handle everyday challenges more effectively.

He draws on work from both private practice and government settings. That background includes mental health assessment, individual and group therapy, and community outreach. Kelley has experience supporting people affected by bipolar disorder, post-traumatic stress, depression, and schizophrenia, and he has worked with issues arising after traumatic events.

Kelley uses practical, skills-based methods in sessions. He helps people identify strengths and build on them. Sessions often focus on concrete strategies for stress management, handling intense emotions, and improving relationships.

He combines client-centered listening with structured techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy and solution-focused work. Narrative and mindfulness approaches are also part of his way of working when they fit a person's needs. The goal is to make change feel doable rather than overwhelming.

People who come because of anger or recurring conflict will find an approach that looks at triggers, patterns, and real-life responses. Kelley supports setting small, achievable steps and tracking what helps. He invites people to try out techniques in between sessions and adjust the plan as needed.

How sessions work

How Kelley’s approaches translate to online sessions

Kelley commonly uses client-centered methods and cognitive behavioral therapy in his work. Client-centered work focuses on listening and helping people recognise their own goals and strengths. Cognitive behavioral therapy breaks problems into patterns of thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills to change those patterns.

He also uses mindfulness techniques to help with stress and emotional regulation. Mindfulness involves short practices and attention skills that can reduce reactivity and support clearer responses to triggers. These approaches suit issues like anxiety, anger, trauma symptoms, and mood challenges because they provide concrete tools and brief exercises to try between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Kelley will work collaboratively to identify which methods match a person's needs, goals, and preferences. That means starting with a plan, trying methods, and adjusting based on what helps in real life.

The original profile does not list specific online formats. Confirm current session options before booking so you know whether video or phone sessions are offered. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so therapy fits around work and family commitments.
