Shakera Jackson , LPC

Shakera Jackson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Oklahoma who helps people move beyond surviving to living with intention and greater ease. With 10 years of clinical experience, she works with individuals, parents, and families facing stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, relationship and parenting challenges, mood concerns, and difficulties with self-esteem and life transitions. She also supports those managing ADHD, caregiver stress, and compassion fatigue.

Recognizing that fear, comparison, and past hurts can leave people feeling stuck, she blends therapeutic skill with a coaching mindset to help clients set meaningful goals and develop practical coping strategies. Her approach centers on collaboration - she treats each person as the expert on their own life and relies on client feedback to shape the work together. She draws from a range of clinical methods including Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to tailor care to each person’s needs.

Shakera emphasizes strength, resilience, and real-world tools that support lasting change. She honors the courage it takes to seek help and aims to be a steady partner for people who want to reclaim control, rebuild confidence, and move toward the life they want.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care with Shakera Jackson

Shakera uses a few complementary approaches to address emotional and behavioral concerns in online sessions. Client-Centered Therapy centers the client’s experience and priorities, offering a supportive environment where people can explore values, build self-understanding, and increase self-compassion - an approach well suited to self-esteem, life transitions, and relationship work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns of thinking and behavior that maintain distress and teaching practical skills to shift those patterns - it is often helpful for anxiety, depression, and stress management. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improved interpersonal effectiveness, which can benefit people struggling with intense emotions, impulsivity, or relationship conflicts.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Shakera will work with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences, then recommend and adjust strategies together so the therapy fits the individual’s life and circumstances. This collaborative stance helps ensure the work remains relevant and effective.

Online therapy with Shakera is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which makes it easier to fit care into busy schedules and to access support from home or on the go. These options provide flexibility in how and when people connect with a licensed professional, allowing continuity of care even when in-person visits are difficult.
