About Elli

Elli Billingsley is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Oklahoma who brings a warm, client-centered approach to therapy.

Background and approach

She earned her bachelor’s degree in psychology and a master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling from Oklahoma State University, and she frames her work around building a supportive therapeutic relationship that helps people explore difficult emotions and life transitions.

Elli combines evidence-based methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with a person-centered stance to tailor care to each client’s needs.

Her practice emphasizes an affirming, nonjudgmental atmosphere where clients can discuss concerns like stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy issues, ADHD, grief, and a wide range of other life challenges. Sessions may incorporate mindfulness and trauma-focused techniques as appropriate, and she adapts interventions to match the client’s goals.

Elli aims to help people build skills, clarify values, and foster resilience so they can move forward with greater clarity and purpose.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Access

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients clarify personal values and take committed action even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present; it can be useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and adjusting unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, offering practical tools for managing symptoms like stress and mood challenges. Mindfulness techniques are woven into these approaches to increase present-moment awareness and emotional regulation, supporting work with trauma responses and ongoing stress.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Elli works with clients to explore their goals, preferences, and responses to different methods, adjusting treatment over time to find the mix of strategies that feels most helpful for each individual.

Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and access. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, allow ongoing support between in-person options, and accommodate different communication styles so clients can engage in the way that best suits them.
