Aaron Duckworth , LCSW

Aaron Duckworth is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Oklahoma with 10 years of experience. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, depression, relationship struggles, grief, eating and parenting concerns, anger, self-esteem problems, career challenges, and coping with life changes. He also focuses on issues such as codependency, substance problems, midlife concerns, veteran issues, money stress, mood disorders, OCD symptoms, panic attacks, post-traumatic stress, self-harm, and sex addiction.

He uses straightforward, goal-oriented methods in sessions. He emphasizes building an alliance and helping each person decide what changes matter to them. Sessions are practical and focused on steps the client can take between meetings. Motivational interviewing techniques are used when people are ambivalent about change.

Aaron draws on cognitive behavioral approaches to identify unhelpful thoughts and patterns, then test alternatives in day-to-day situations. He also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy techniques to help people clarify values and commit to actions that fit those values. Mindfulness practices appear in many sessions as brief exercises to reduce reactivity and improve focus.

He has particular experience helping with addiction and co-occurring disorders, relapse prevention, and veteran-related concerns. He also works with intrusive thoughts, obsessive compulsive behaviors, impulse control, and self-harm issues using focused skills and relapse planning. Treatment stays practical and measurable.

People can expect a small caseload approach, meaning sessions are kept manageable and targeted. The emphasis is on self-determination - clients set priorities and Aaron helps map clear steps toward those goals. To begin, follow the site’s booking steps to match and schedule a first session.
