About Anita
OK Psychologist 632 Dr. Anita Russell has worked in Oklahoma for 30 years. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, and problems with self-esteem and motivation.
Dr. Russell uses straightforward talk and practical tools in sessions. She adapts conversations and plans to what each person needs. She lists Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) among her approaches and draws on them as appropriate.
People come to her for a range of concerns including grief, trauma and abuse, anger, compassion fatigue, career issues, and coping with life changes. She also pays attention to struggles with forgiveness, guilt and shame, and building self-love. Sessions focus on clear steps people can try between meetings.
Her style emphasizes listening first, then trying techniques together. For example she might help someone identify unhelpful thinking patterns with CBT or practice emotion regulation skills influenced by DBT. She works at a pace the person is comfortable with.
Dr. Russell’s background spans three decades of clinical work in Oklahoma. Over that time she has helped people navigate both sudden crises and long-term concerns. She accepts English-speaking international clients and asks new people to complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling a first session.

How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy in her practice means focused listening and building sessions around the person’s concerns and goals. That approach helps when someone needs a space to describe what is happening and to set priorities for change.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify patterns of thinking that contribute to anxiety or depression and to develop concrete exercises to change those patterns. CBT can be helpful for stress, low mood, and motivation problems.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) contributes practical skills for managing intense emotions and reducing impulsive reactions. Techniques from DBT often include emotion regulation and distress tolerance strategies.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the person about goals, preferences, and what has or has not helped in the past, then try methods that fit. This is a collaborative process rather than a fixed plan.
The biography does not list which remote session formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a workday, reduce travel time, or allow a shorter check-in when needed. The form of a session can also be selected to match practical needs like quieter surroundings or lower bandwidth.
