About Me: Authentic Support Without the Fluff
Starting therapy is a big step, and finding the right person to talk to shouldn't feel like a chore. If you’re looking for a therapist who is direct, down-to-earth, and skips the clinical jargon, you’re in the right place.
My Approach
I believe in getting straight to the point. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), I bring expertise to the table, but I don't believe therapy has to be stuffy or overly formal. My style is "no fluff"—we focus on what’s actually happening in your life and how to move through it.
I know that life in Oklahoma comes with its own unique set of challenges, from navigating major life transitions to simply surviving the latest "wind tunnel" season. I aim to provide a space where you can be yourself, share a laugh, and get the support you need to feel grounded again.
A Little More About Me
Before opening Pirtle Counseling LLC, my path was a bit different than your average therapist.
Military Background: I served as a Staff Sergeant in the Air Force, including time overseas for Operations Iraqi Freedom and Enduring Freedom. Managing a vehicle maintenance shop taught me the core values of integrity, excellence, and resilience. I bring that same mission-focused, clear communication into every session today.
Local Roots: I am proud to serve Kingfisher, Loyal, Omega, Watonga, Dover, Hennessey, Okarche, Hitchcock, and our surrounding Oklahoma communities. I understand the values and the pace of life here because I live it, too.
Commitment to You: My goal is to make quality mental health care accessible and straightforward. Whether you are dealing with a major life change or just feel stuck, I’m here to help you navigate the "why" and focus on the "how" of moving forward.
