About Victoria

Victoria McLearen is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) in Oklahoma with 13 years of counseling experience. She works with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and depression. She also focuses on communication problems, forgiveness, guilt and shame, isolation and loneliness, life purpose, panic, post-traumatic stress, self-love, and social anxiety.

Her style is straightforward and practical. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different ways of responding. She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, and Internal Family Systems to guide conversations about feelings and internal parts. Sessions aim to identify patterns, practice new responses, and set small, concrete steps to test between sessions.

Victoria pays attention to the stories people tell about themselves. She helps people break down big problems into manageable pieces. That can mean practicing breathing and grounding for panic, testing beliefs that feed low self-esteem, or rehearsing clearer communication for strained relationships.

She respects faith as part of some clients' lives and can integrate those concerns into therapy when relevant. Work on forgiveness, guilt, and meaning is approached through discussion, targeted exercises, and reflection on values.

Practical matters are covered early on. The subscription-based session model is used and can be canceled at any time. People start by completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first session through the listed online options.

Overall, Victoria offers a mix of structured tools and conversational work aimed at helping people reduce overwhelm, respond differently to triggers, and try new ways of relating to themselves and others.

How her approaches translate to online work

Victoria combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy when working online. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying small behavioral experiments to change feeling and behavior. Client-Centered Therapy prioritizes the client’s perspective and uses reflective conversation to clarify values and goals.

She also uses elements of Emotionally-Focused Therapy to notice interaction patterns and strong emotions that affect relationships. EFT techniques can help people practice expressing needs and reading emotional cues, which is useful regardless of whether sessions are remote or in person.

Figuring out the best approach is collaborative. The therapist and client review goals, personal preferences, and what feels most practical. They may try CBT exercises in one session and a reflective conversation in the next to see what fits.

Because the listing does not specify session formats, confirm current online session options before booking. Online work can make regular check-ins easier to fit into a week, allow shorter focused sessions when time is tight, or reduce travel time around work and family routines. These practical benefits help people keep momentum while testing new skills between sessions.
