Karen Evanson, LPC

Karen Evanson is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in Oklahoma with 21 years of clinical experience. She helps people who struggle with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, ADHD, parenting strain, low self-esteem, and depression. Her work also includes support for family problems, forgiveness, guilt and shame, panic attacks, phobias, and post-traumatic stress.

She favors a practical, person-focused style. Conversations are straightforward. She listens for what is creating tension and then helps people try concrete ways to respond differently. That might mean learning a new skill for managing strong feelings or changing thought patterns that keep stress rising.

Karen uses a mix of methods that can include client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, hypnotherapy, and trauma-focused work. She explains approaches in simple terms and helps people pick tools that fit their life and concerns. The emphasis is on usable strategies rather than labels.

She frames therapeutic work as a partnership. Sessions typically combine talking, skills practice, and checking what felt helpful between meetings. People who come in for anger concerns often focus on triggers, communication habits, and realistic ways to reduce explosions or simmering resentment.

Her background across two decades gives a lot of experience with long-standing problems and reactions to traumatic events. She works in English in Oklahoma and holds LPC credentials in Texas and Oklahoma. To begin, people complete a brief matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
