About Rex
Rex Bennett is a licensed professional counselor in Oklahoma with six years of clinical experience. He helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, anger, addictions, and challenges with self-esteem. Rex aims to make beginning therapy straightforward and approachable for someone feeling overwhelmed.
He focuses on creating an open, nonjudgmental space where clients can talk about what matters to them. Sessions are conversational and practical, with attention to daily coping skills and realistic goals.
Background and approach
Rex emphasizes building motivation and confidence while addressing patterns that get in the way of feeling better. Rex uses methods drawn from client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral approaches to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. He also draws on dialectical behavior ideas and emotionally focused work when emotion regulation and relationships are central concerns.
These tools are adapted to each person’s situation and goals. Rex offers weekday daytime appointments only, Monday through Friday, and he responds to messages outside of those hours. He is based in Oklahoma and meets people in ways that fit their schedules using video, phone, chat, or text messaging.
People who prefer a straightforward, supportive therapist who focuses on skills, clear goals, and steady progress may find his style helpful. He encourages small steps that add up to meaningful change.
Approaches that guide online sessions
Client-centered therapy is about listening closely and following the person’s pace. It helps when someone needs a welcoming space to sort through feelings and make their own choices about change.Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact. It helps people learn simple ways to test unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors to reduce anxiety or depression.
Dialectical behavior therapy, DBT, teaches practical skills for managing strong emotions and reducing impulsive behavior. It can be useful for people who want clearer ways to cope with intense stress or relationship conflicts.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and comfort level. That decision is revisited as progress is made so the plan stays useful.
Online sessions make it easier to fit counseling into a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited, live chat can be used for shorter check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options offer flexibility for weekday daytime appointments and help clients keep therapy consistent with work and family routines.
