Aaron Duckworth , LCSW

Aaron Duckworth is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Oklahoma who helps people dealing with stress and anxiety. He has a direct, practical manner and focuses on what clients want to change. He emphasizes collaboration and respects each person’s goals without judgment.

Aaron has about 10 years of experience working with addiction and co-occurring conditions, relapse prevention, veteran issues, trauma, depression, obsessive compulsive disorder, impulse control, self-harm, and self-esteem concerns. He often supports people who are struggling with intrusive thoughts and anxiety. His work also touches on relationship strain, grief, eating and food-related issues, and career or financial stressors.

In sessions he aims to build a strong working alliance and keep caseloads small so he can spend focused time with each person. He encourages self-determination so clients decide what matters most to them. He uses practical tools from solution-focused therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy to break problems into manageable steps.

Mindfulness and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas are woven into his work to help people notice thoughts and choose actions that match their values. Motivational interviewing is used when people are weighing change and need help finding their reasons to try something new.

Aaron works in Oklahoma and conducts sessions in English. He draws on his clinical background to offer clear, down-to-earth guidance for people facing anxiety, stress, and related concerns.

Therapeutic approaches that translate online

Aaron uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thought patterns and test new ways of thinking and behaving. CBT breaks larger problems into small, practical steps that can be practiced between sessions and tracked over time.

He also draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which focuses on clarifying personal values and taking action that matters even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present. Mindfulness techniques are used to increase moment-to-moment awareness and reduce reactivity to stressful thoughts.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That conversation guides how sessions are structured and which tools are prioritized.

If you are considering online work, confirm the available session options before booking since formats are not listed in the biography. Many people find virtual sessions helpful for fitting therapy into a busy life, shortening travel time, and keeping appointments during work breaks. Others prefer in-person visits when those are offered; Aaron and other licensed professionals can help you choose what will fit your routine and needs.
