About Oddette
Oddette Parker-Chieco is a licensed professional clinical counselor (LPCC) based in Kentucky with nine years of experience. She focuses on helping people tackle stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship strain. Her work also addresses trauma and self-esteem concerns.
She often supports clients who feel isolated, ashamed, or stuck after difficult life events. She helps people clarify values, improve communication, and rebuild trust in themselves. Sessions emphasize practical skills people can use between meetings.
Background and approach
Her style is warm and direct. She listens for patterns that keep problems repeating and helps clients try new ways of reacting. The emphasis is on small, doable steps that add up over time.
Her practice draws on a multicultural perspective and aims to respect each person’s background and identity. She helps people name how past attachments influence current relationships and self-image. Oddette works with a range of concerns beyond core specialties, including grief around abandonment or adoption, mood problems, impulsivity, and struggles with life purpose.
She encourages steady progress and adjusts plans to match what each person needs. People can expect collaborative planning in sessions, with time spent on skill practice and honest conversation. The goal is clearer thinking, stronger coping, and more agency in everyday life.
How evidence-based methods work online
Oddette uses straightforward, evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on change and coping. One approach emphasizes identifying unhelpful patterns in thinking and behavior and practicing small, specific skills to shift them; this helps with anxiety, mood problems, and stress. Another approach concentrates on attachment and relationship patterns, helping people understand how early experiences shape current reactions and how to try new ways of relating in close relationships.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist and client look at goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they try methods that fit the person's life and adjust the plan over time based on what helps most.
Online formats make it easier to keep consistent care. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation and interactive work. Phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging allow for brief check-ins, skill practice, or ongoing support between sessions. These options offer flexibility for people balancing work, school, or caregiving.
