Rex Bennett, LPC

Rex Bennett is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Oklahoma. He has six years of experience helping people navigate stress, anxiety, grief, anger, low self-esteem, depression, and issues related to addiction and relationships. Rex aims to make the first steps toward change feel manageable and respectful of each person’s pace.

Rex focuses on creating a calm, nonjudgmental space where people can talk about what matters. He listens for the patterns that keep problems repeating and works with clients to try different ways of responding. Sessions tend to be straightforward and goal-oriented, with room for honest conversation.

Rex uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Client-Centered methods, Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills, and emotionally-focused ideas as tools to address daily struggles. He mixes practical skill-building with moments that look at meaning and values. The result is a blend of coping techniques and conversations about what a better life would look like.

People who prefer clear steps and collaborative planning often find this approach helpful. Rex is open and direct about scheduling; sessions are held during daytime weekday hours. Messages sent after hours are answered, but therapy sessions must be arranged during available daytime slots Monday through Friday.

Rex works in English and supports a range of concerns including caregiving stress, chronic illness, codependency, fatherhood issues, first responder concerns, and grief related to cancer or loss. He emphasizes steady progress and practical ways to manage emotions and behavior.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Rex often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and test small changes in behavior. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress because it focuses on practical steps and measurable goals. He also draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which prioritizes listening, empathy, and helping people clarify their own values and choices. This approach supports people who need a calm space to sort out feelings and priorities.

He may add Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills when emotion regulation and coping strategies are needed. DBT skills teach concrete tools for managing intense emotions, improving distress tolerance, and strengthening interpersonal effectiveness. Rex works collaboratively to choose which methods fit each person’s needs and goals, and he adjusts the plan as therapy progresses.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to work together. Video calls let people use visual cues and a full-session conversation. Phone sessions can be quieter and use less bandwidth. Live chat and text-based messaging support shorter check-ins, skill practice between sessions, and ongoing reflection. These options make it easier to fit therapy into daytime routines and to practice new skills in everyday moments.
