Karen Peck, LPC

Karen Peck is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Oklahoma with 18 years of clinical experience. She works with people dealing with addiction, trauma and abuse, grief, major life changes, parenting strain, anger, self esteem issues, and career concerns. Karen also focuses on communication problems, drug and alcohol addiction, first responder issues, veteran and armed forces matters, and post-traumatic stress.

She uses practical, skills-based approaches in sessions. Karen draws on methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and trauma-focused therapy to help people manage strong emotions and reduce behaviors that cause regret. Sessions tend to include concrete tools and short exercises that are easy to practice between meetings.

In conversation she treats the client as the expert of their own life. She listens for what is already working and then suggests small changes to daily habits and thinking patterns. That can mean learning new ways to notice anger early, practicing breathing and grounding techniques, or testing a different response in a tense interaction.

Her work often aims at shifting how people respond under stress, not at blaming them for past reactions. For someone frustrated by frequent outbursts, simmering resentment, or repeated clashes at work or home, Karen offers steady, practical steps forward. She supports people who want clearer thinking, fewer impulsive reactions, and better control over how they act when upset.

To begin, she asks for a brief intake to learn what matters most and to set simple, measurable goals. From there sessions focus on skills practice, reviewing progress, and adjusting strategies so new habits stick.
