About Mitzi

Mitzi Pope is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Maine and Oklahoma with nine years of clinical experience. She works with adults in Oklahoma who are managing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, trauma and compassion fatigue. Her practice notes a focus on first responder issues, women's concerns, workplace strain, somatization, self-love, and young adult challenges.

Mitzi keeps sessions straightforward and practical. She uses humor and clear, evidence-based strategies to help people manage day-to-day demands. Conversations focus on what is happening now and on small, useful steps clients can try between sessions.

Her background includes several structured therapeutic approaches used to address trauma, intrusive memories, and unhelpful thinking patterns. Mitzi combines exercises to change thinking patterns with techniques aimed at reducing physical stress reactions and improving emotional regulation.

Sessions typically include goal-setting, brief skill practice, and review of progress. She pays special attention to people exposed to ongoing stress at work, such as front-line roles, helping them reduce burnout and restore routines that support functioning.

Clients can expect practical guidance about symptom management, coping skills for pressure at work, and ways to rebuild self-acceptance. Mitzi encourages straightforward, collaborative planning so people can try changes that fit their daily life.

BHow sessions work

Approaches used in online sessions

Mitzi uses several structured, evidence-based techniques to address distress. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them against real-life evidence. It helps with anxiety, low mood, and workplace stress by teaching skills to change thinking and behavior.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a trauma-focused method that works with disturbing memories and the body’s stress responses. It is commonly used when past events continue to cause strong emotional or physical reactions.

Mindfulness-based practices are also used to reduce reactivity and increase present-moment awareness. These exercises are short and practical, aimed at lowering day-to-day tension and improving concentration.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to identify what fits their needs, goals, and preferences. That choice may change as progress is made, and techniques can be combined to address specific symptoms and life demands.

Confirm current session options before booking since formats are not detailed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work and family commitments, allow shorter check-ins when schedules require it, and remove travel time. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and homework so people can use what they learn between sessions.
