About Lavon
Lavon Clark is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Oklahoma with six years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, depression, ADHD, relationship and family concerns, grief, eating issues, anger, self-esteem struggles, bipolar disorder, and coping with life changes.
Clark has experience across mental health and educational settings. She helps clients navigate medical, educational, and social systems to address plans of care and daily challenges. Her background includes long-term work with children and adults in supportive roles prior to clinical licensure.
Before earning a Master of Science in Social Work she completed a Bachelor of Science in Social Work and an Associate of General Studies focused on early childhood education. Her earlier roles include licensed child care provider, licensed therapeutic foster parent for teen females, paraprofessional with children who have special needs, and mental health aide for adults with special needs.
In sessions she centers on the person-in-environment framework to look at what matters most in a client's life. Clark combines that view with evidence-based tools to address emotional regulation, anger, trauma responses, and behavior tied to mood and attention differences. She uses practical methods to help people notice patterns and try different coping steps.
Her approach draws on cognitive behavioral techniques, trauma-focused methods, narrative work, solution-focused strategies, client-centered methods, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing. Clark aims to help clients clarify goals, practice new skills, and make changes that fit their daily lives.
How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions
Lavon Clark works from the person-in-environment view and pairs that with practical, evidence-based techniques. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on noticing unhelpful thoughts and testing different behaviors to reduce intense reactions and angry outbursts. Trauma-focused methods look at how past events affect current responses and teach skills to manage triggers and distress.She brings a collaborative stance to deciding which methods to use. The therapist and client review goals, try techniques, and adjust the plan together. Finding the best fit is an ongoing process rather than a one-time decision.
The biography does not specify which online session formats are used, so confirm available options before booking. Many people find online sessions useful because they can fit therapy into a work break, avoid travel time, or choose a shorter check-in when they need to focus on a single problem. Online work also makes it easier to practice skills in the settings where problems happen and then talk through what did or did not work with the therapist.
