About Rebecca
Rebecca Dugan is a licensed professional counselor in Oklahoma with 25 years of experience in mental health. She focuses on practical help for stress, anxiety, relationships, parenting challenges, anger, self-esteem, and career concerns.

Background and approach
Work often centers on communication skills, boundary setting, and building more self-compassion. She has a long history helping people through life events that can cause heavy emotions. That includes grief from abandonment, attachment struggles, blended family problems, postpartum depression, and reactions after traumatic events.
Mood disorders and obsessive-compulsive concerns are also within her focus. Her approach is straightforward and task-oriented. Rebecca will listen first and then suggest practical strategies that fit daily life.
She supports exploration of guilt, shame, and issues that affect relationships and parenting. Sessions use formats that fit busy schedules, and she assists people in choosing the most helpful format. Rebecca aims to make therapy understandable and useful so people leave sessions with at least one clear step to try.
Evidence-Based Approaches and Online Care
Rebecca uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. One common approach centers on building better communication and problem-solving skills to reduce conflict and improve relationships. This helps with issues like blended family problems, jealousy, and communication breakdowns.Another approach emphasizes habit and behavior changes to manage anxiety, compulsions, and mood symptoms. That work involves breaking large problems into small steps, practicing new behaviors, and tracking progress to make steady improvements. A third focus is on attachment and processing feelings around abandonment and trauma, helping people understand patterns and try different ways of relating.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to what matters most, try an initial plan, and adjust methods based on goals and how things are going. Clients and the therapist work together to pick tools that fit daily life and personal preferences.
Online therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video allows face-to-face conversation for longer work, phone calls can fit a break at work or require less bandwidth, live chat is useful for shorter check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to continue work consistently.
