About Lavon
She brings six years as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and a lifelong career in care roles to her work. Her background includes roles as a licensed child care provider, therapeutic foster parent for teen girls, paraprofessional with children who have special needs, and mental health aide supporting adults with special needs. Those experiences inform how she supports people with ADHD, depression, bipolar mood concerns, anger, grief, and trauma and abuse.
Lavon uses the Person-In-Environment framework to look at how life situations affect feelings and behavior. She pairs that perspective with evidence-based techniques such as cognitive behavioral approaches and trauma-focused work to help people change patterns and cope better day to day. Sessions also may draw on narrative, solution-focused, client-centered, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing strategies when helpful.
Her practice emphasizes practical tools, clear goals, and collaborative planning. She encourages clients to name what they want to change and to try small steps between sessions. The aim is steady progress toward the life a person wants to build.
Lavon practices in Oklahoma and conducts work in English. She frames therapy as a team effort and welcomes conversations about whether her style matches a person’s needs.

Therapeutic approaches and how online work can fit
Lavon often draws on cognitive behavioral approaches, which focus on identifying unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and replacing them with more helpful strategies. This approach is commonly used for anxiety, stress, depression, and problems with emotion regulation.She also uses trauma-focused approaches to help people process traumatic experiences in a paced way. These methods aim to reduce the hold of distressing memories and to teach coping skills for when strong feelings arise.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Lavon will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and the problems that feel most pressing. Together they decide which methods to try and refine the plan as progress is made.
Confirm the current session options before booking so you know how sessions are delivered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments around work, school, or caregiving by removing travel time. It also lets people choose quieter times for shorter check-ins or longer sessions when needed. Many licensed professionals find this flexibility helps maintain steady progress while juggling everyday responsibilities.
