About Jonetta
Jonetta Wakely is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Oklahoma with 20 years of experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, relationship strain, parenting challenges, trauma and abuse, depression, anger, self-esteem, and career concerns. Jonetta asks clients to describe what matters to them and uses that as the starting point for sessions.
She keeps conversations practical and focused on choices that lead to a life worth living. Jonetta does not frame problems as good or bad. Instead she looks at what has worked so far and what might work better going forward. Sessions involve talking through patterns, testing different strategies, and deciding on steps that fit day-to-day life.
Her background includes substantial training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. Jonetta uses those approaches alongside attachment and mindfulness-based ideas when they fit a client’s goals. She explains methods plainly and suggests tools clients can try between meetings.
People choose her when they want clear feedback and concrete ways to handle angry reactions, reduce stress, or improve communication. Jonetta supports work on underlying issues such as abandonment, attachment concerns, codependency, and caregiver stress when those relate to current problems.
She also addresses complex presentations, including dissociation, co-morbidity, and mood regulation difficulties. Sessions are aimed at helping clients notice patterns, experiment with new responses, and build more reliable ways of coping over time.
How her therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions
Jonetta uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy in straightforward ways. CBT looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and uses exercises to test new ways of thinking and behaving. It helps with anxiety, anger, and depression by breaking problems into manageable steps. DBT focuses on practical skills for managing intense emotions, tolerating distress, and improving interpersonal effectiveness, which can be useful when anger affects relationships.Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will collaborate with each client to decide which methods fit their goals and day-to-day life. That means trying out strategies, reviewing what helps, and adjusting the plan based on results and client preference.
