Olivia Gordon, LCSW

Olivia Gordon is a licensed clinical social worker practicing in Oklahoma. She brings four years of clinical experience to sessions and focuses on helping people navigate relationship struggles, addiction-related concerns, trauma, and depression. Olivia aims to create a calm, respectful space where people can speak honestly and start making small changes that matter.

Her style is straightforward and compassionate. She listens first, then works with each person to set clear, achievable goals. Olivia draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and attachment-focused ideas to help clients notice unhelpful patterns and test new ways of acting and relating.

Sessions often include practical exercises people can try between meetings. Olivia helps clients build communication skills, cope with difficult emotions, and manage urges connected to addictive behaviors. She also supports those dealing with abandonment, adoption and foster care questions, chronic illness, caregiver stress, and body image concerns.

She describes her perspective as Christian-informed and respectful of each person’s beliefs. That viewpoint shapes how she approaches meaning, values, and healing, while the work itself centers on observable changes and everyday skills.

Olivia welcomes plain talk about sensitive topics like intimacy, BDSM and alternative sex culture, and attachment wounds. Her goal is to help people find clearer direction, greater self-compassion, and practical tools for day-to-day life.

How specific approaches translate to online care

Olivia uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify and change thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going, which can be practiced between sessions with worksheets and brief experiments. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy supports people in noticing painful feelings without getting stuck and choosing actions that match their values, often with simple values exercises and mindfulness practices. Attachment-Based approaches look at patterns in close relationships and help people try new ways of connecting and communicating.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Olivia works with each person to pick methods that fit their needs, goals, and preferences and adjusts the plan over time based on what is helping. She aims to make clinical choices together rather than prescribing a single path up front.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for skills practice and communication work, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat supports shorter check-ins, and messaging lets people send updates or homework between meetings. These options help fit therapy into work, caregiving, or medical schedules while keeping the work practical and skill-focused.
