About Gayle
Gayle DuBois, LPC, focuses on helping parents and individuals who are struggling with common but painful issues. She speaks plainly and aims to make each session useful from the start. Her style is practical and goal-focused, which suits people who want clear next steps.
Gayle brings 27 years of clinical experience in Oklahoma to her work. She has supported people facing anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, and eating and food-related concerns.
Background and approach
She also addresses stress, grief, self-esteem, ADHD challenges, and issues related to young adulthood and LGBT identities. Her counseling combines cognitive behavioral ideas with solution-focused techniques. That means sessions often look at unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, then try small experiments or changes to improve day-to-day life.
She favors clear goals and concrete strategies parents can use between sessions. Gayle has a long background in working with children and adolescents, and she uses that experience to support parents navigating behavior and development questions. She also works with people coping with relationship strain, abandonment concerns, panic and social anxiety, and obsessive-compulsive patterns.
Sessions aim to be straightforward, with an emphasis on practical steps. People who choose her typically get help planning changes, calming intense emotions, and building routines that support better eating, sleep, and focus. Her hope is to help clients find manageable ways forward.
Gayle practices as a Licensed Professional Counselor in Oklahoma and conducts therapy in English. She offers multiple session formats to fit different schedules and needs.

Approaches Gayle lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each therapist names and does not check training records.
How her approaches translate to online care
Gayle uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people notice and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. CBT often includes simple homework tasks, mood tracking, and small behavior experiments that can be done between sessions to reduce anxiety, manage mood, or change eating-related habits.She also uses Solution-Focused Therapy, which zeroes in on small, achievable goals and builds on what is already working. This approach is useful for parents who want quick, practical ideas for managing behavior or for adults seeking short-term strategies to handle life changes.
Finding the right approach is a team effort. Gayle will work with each person to choose methods that match their goals, preferences, and day-to-day life. Sessions can be adjusted over time if a different focus or technique seems more helpful.
Online therapy offers flexibility for busy schedules. Video calls let the therapist and client work face-to-face for deeper interaction, while phone sessions can fit into a lunch break or be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging make it simple to check in between appointments, ask brief questions, or get support using written exchanges. These options help people keep consistent care while balancing parenting, work, and other demands.
