About Shakera

Shakera Jackson combines a client-centered stance with structured therapeutic techniques to help people navigate stress, anxiety, trauma, ADHD-related challenges, and mood concerns.

Background and approach

She brings ten years of clinical experience as an LPC and emphasizes partnership with each client, using evidence-based methods to address symptoms while honoring personal goals and lived experience. Her approach balances practical skills with attention to emotions, helping clients develop coping strategies and clearer perspectives.

Shakera works with a wide range of concerns including depression, grief, anger, relationship and family struggles, parenting stress, compassion fatigue, and self-esteem issues. She also focuses on areas such as body image, communication difficulties, impulsivity, post-traumatic stress, and mood disorders.

Drawing on modalities like CBT, DBT, EFT, and EMDR, she adapts interventions to fit individual needs rather than following a one-size-fits-all plan. Located in Oklahoma, Shakera offers therapy that centers the client’s priorities and supports practical change over time.

Integrating proven approaches with flexible online care

Shakera commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and trial new behaviors; this approach is practical for anxiety, depression, ADHD-related challenges, and mood regulation. She also incorporates Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness for clients struggling with strong emotions or impulsivity. When trauma is central, EMDR may be used to process distressing memories and reduce their emotional intensity, helping people move forward from past events.

Choosing the right method is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist works with each person to explore what fits best with their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting techniques over time rather than committing to a single modality from the start. This partnership helps ensure therapy remains practical and aligned with the client’s priorities.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, allowing flexible scheduling and consistent contact even when life is busy. These formats make it easier to access licensed professionals from Oklahoma, maintain momentum between appointments, and use the communication style that feels most comfortable for the client.
