Rex Bennett , LPC

Rex Bennett is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Oklahoma with six years of experience supporting people who want to make meaningful changes in their lives. He works with individuals facing stress, anxiety, grief, anger, low self-esteem, depression, and addictions, and he provides therapy for relationship and family challenges, parenting concerns, bipolar disorder, and coaching goals. He is also experienced in working with LGBT clients and addresses complex issues such as aging and geriatric concerns, attachment and blended family dynamics, caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, codependency, control issues, first responder stress, and struggles around guilt, shame, and forgiveness.

Rex relies on a blend of therapeutic approaches, including client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral tools, dialectical behavior strategies, emotionally-focused ideas, and existential perspectives, tailoring interventions to each person’s needs. He aims to create an open, nonjudgmental space where thoughts and feelings can be explored and where people can build skills, insight, and motivation. Seeking therapy takes courage, and Rex focuses on supporting and empowering people as they take initial steps toward a more fulfilling and balanced life.

Therapeutic Approaches for Online Care

Rex uses client-centered therapy to prioritize each person’s experience and to create a collaborative, respectful space where goals are set with the client rather than imposed. This approach helps when someone needs support in clarifying values, building self-understanding, and strengthening motivation for change.

He also integrates cognitive behavioral therapy - CBT - which focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and developing practical skills to manage anxiety, depression, and stress. CBT is often useful for people who want structured strategies to change thoughts and behaviors.

Dialectical behavior therapy - DBT - is another tool he draws on for emotion regulation, interpersonal effectiveness, and distress tolerance, particularly when strong emotional reactions interfere with daily life. Finding the right blend of these approaches is part of the therapeutic process; Rex works collaboratively with clients to determine what fits best based on their needs, goals, and preferences.

Online therapy with Rex can take place via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and communication styles. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, attend sessions from familiar environments, and access support in ways that fit each person’s life.
