Dr. Christopher Graham, LCSW

Dr. Christopher Graham is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 13 years of experience based in Oklahoma. He focuses on practical, conversational work that helps people manage relationship strain, trauma, parenting challenges, anxiety, mood concerns, and the stresses of life transitions.

He creates a calm, nonjudgmental space where clients can talk through painful thoughts and feelings. Sessions aim to be direct and understandable, so people leave with clear ideas they can try between meetings.

Dr. Graham draws on approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and attachment-based ideas to guide sessions. He mixes hands-on skill practice with attention to personal values and close relationships.

Clients can expect conversations about patterns that keep problems going, and concrete steps to change them. He also addresses grief, anger, self-esteem, career stress, and caregiver strain when those issues show up.

Over time he helps people build routines and tools that fit daily life. The work is collaborative - clients set goals and Dr. Graham helps shape the plan to reach them.

How online therapy and active approaches work together

Dr. Graham uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thinking and practice different behaviors that reduce anxiety and depression. He also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to clarify personal values and build actions that bring life closer to those values. Attachment-based ideas shape conversations about closeness, trust, and how early relationship patterns show up now.

Finding the right approach is a team effort. He works collaboratively with each person to choose which methods match their goals and comfort level, and adjusts plans as progress unfolds. Clients set priorities and together they track what helps and what needs a different strategy.

Online formats - video, phone, live chat, and text messaging - make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video supports face-to-face conversation and skill demonstrations. Phone can be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text let people share thoughts between sessions or use brief coaching during stressful moments. These choices give flexibility while keeping the focus on practical skills and steady progress.
