About Brandy

Brandy Adams is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Oklahoma with eight years of experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, coping with life changes, and ADHD. Brandy also focuses on issues tied to family of origin such as abandonment, adoption and foster care, and attachment concerns.

Her style is conversational and practical. Sessions are paced to what feels comfortable for each person. She talks through current problems while also looking at patterns that began in family relationships and still affect daily life.

Brandy uses approaches that keep conversations grounded. Client-Centered Therapy is used to center the client’s concerns and preferences. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify and change thoughts and behaviors that add to anxiety or low mood.

She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance, and may use EMDR when processing past events feels relevant. Existential ideas can come into play when people face big life questions or changes.

People can expect straightforward, down-to-earth sessions that mix talk, practical exercises, and skill building. Brandy aims to help people recognize repeating family patterns and develop clearer choices about how to respond now. The approach is collaborative and paced to the client’s needs.

How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person’s priorities and preferences. In practice this means sessions start with what matters most now and progress at a comfortable pace. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and behaviors keep problems going. Online sessions using CBT often include simple worksheets, behavior experiments, and short homework to try between meetings.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches skills for managing strong emotions and handling stressful moments. In an online setting DBT tools can be reviewed together and practiced in real time, with the therapist coaching through new strategies. Brandy will work with each person to figure out which approaches fit best based on goals, situation, and what feels useful in early sessions.

The practical benefits of online work vary by provider and should be confirmed before booking. If you want to fit sessions around work or family, discuss timing and session length when you match. Online options can make it easier to keep appointments without travel and allow use of digital worksheets and tools during sessions. Confirm the exact session formats offered before scheduling so they match your needs.
