About Nick
Nick Livingston is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Oklahoma with seven years of experience. He works with adults on everyday problems such as anger, stress, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, and parenting concerns. He also supports people navigating addictions, grief, career changes, ADHD, and questions around identity including LGBT issues.
Nick uses straightforward conversation to help people notice what keeps them stuck. He leans on Client-Centered and Cognitive Behavioral approaches to identify patterns of thinking and behavior that make things harder. Sessions focus on practical steps - spotting triggers, trying different responses, and building routines that reduce tension.
He also draws from Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Mindfulness strategies to help with emotional regulation and staying present during stressful moments. When issues involve trauma, grief, or complex life changes, he works with clients to pace the work and manage intense feelings. He mentions play-based approaches and Child Parent Relationship work when parents are involved.
Nick acknowledges the role medications and medical marijuana sometimes play in treatment and supports clients who are coordinating those options with counseling. He aims for a collaborative style where goals are clear and progress is measured in everyday changes rather than labels.
People meeting him can expect direct talk, concrete tools, and a focus on what they can do between sessions to reduce anger and build steadier reactions.
How his approaches translate to online work
Nick often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thoughts and change patterns that lead to anger. CBT sessions online focus on practical exercises, tracking thoughts and testing new behaviors between meetings.He also draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which emphasizes listening and working from the client's own goals. Online conversations use that same collaborative tone to set goals and adjust strategies based on what feels useful.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide whether CBT, DBT skills, mindfulness practice, or a mix best fits their needs and goals. That decision is revisited as progress is made.
Confirm the session formats offered before booking so you know how meetings are scheduled. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and cut the need to travel to an office. The focus online remains the same: practical tools, skills practice, and adapting strategies so they work in everyday life.
