About Kelley
LCSW in Oklahoma with 17 years of experience, Kelley Tubbs helps people address stress, anxiety, trauma, depression, and related concerns using practical, evidence-informed approaches such as client-centered work, cognitive behavioral strategies, mindfulness, narrative techniques, and solution-focused methods. He focuses on coping skills, anger management, relationship and intimacy issues, and supports people navigating life transitions and career stressors.
Kelley uses clear, direct conversation to identify current problems and what a person wants to change. He draws on client-centered therapy to follow a person's priorities and on CBT to break problems into manageable steps. Mindfulness and narrative methods are used to change how people relate to thoughts and past events. Solution-focused techniques help set concrete short-term goals.
His background includes work in both private and government settings. That experience involved mental health assessment, diagnostic work, individual and group therapy, and community trainings and outreach. He has provided care related to bipolar disorder, post-traumatic stress, depression, schizophrenia, and trauma and abuse.
Kelley emphasizes practical coping strategies people can use between sessions. He works with issues such as self-esteem, grief, intimacy-related concerns, anger, workplace stress, commitment problems, and matters affecting veterans and first responders. He also supports people dealing with guilt, shame, infidelity, and questions about life purpose.
Sessions are conducted in English and focused on observable steps and real-life adjustments. Kelley aims to help people recognize and use their existing strengths to manage symptoms and move forward.

How these approaches are used in online sessions
Client-centered therapy focuses on the person's priorities and what matters most to them. The therapist listens, reflects, and helps people decide what to work on next, which is useful for stress, relationship concerns, and life changes.Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) breaks problems into specific thoughts, feelings, and actions. In sessions this leads to small, practical exercises and tools people can try between meetings to reduce anxiety or manage mood swings.
Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to notice thoughts and reduce reactivity. This can help with anger management, anxiety, and coping after trauma.
Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the person about goals, try methods that match those goals, and adjust the plan based on what helps. That conversation is part of early sessions and continues as needs change.
Confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking, since the biography does not list specific options. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a workday, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid being on camera if a phone conversation is preferred.
