About Nick
Nick Livingston is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Oklahoma who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, depression, relationship challenges, and a wide range of life changes.
Background and approach
He emphasizes a collaborative, client-centered stance that starts by meeting each person where they are and building on their strengths to find practical, personalized solutions. With seven years of clinical experience, he combines structured methods with an open, nonjudgmental attitude to support exploration of thoughts, feelings, and behaviors.
Nick draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) alongside client-centered techniques and incorporates elements of mindfulness and dialectical skills when helpful. He has worked with children, teens, and adults and offers approaches tailored for parenting concerns, ADHD, trauma, grief, intimacy and sexual diversity matters, caregiver stress, chronic illness, and other complex concerns.
He is also supportive of clients who are considering medical marijuana as part of their treatment plan and aims to integrate medication discussions into counseling without judgment. Sessions are available through a variety of online formats to fit different needs and schedules.
Approaches for Online Work and Practical Support
Nick frequently uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify and shift unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, addiction, and sleep difficulties. He also employs client-centered techniques that prioritize listening, empathy, and the client’s own goals to create a collaborative space for growth. When appropriate, he may integrate Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to teach emotional regulation and distress tolerance strategies that support coping during intense moments.
Finding the right therapeutic approach is treated as a collaborative process. He works with clients to explore which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and he adjusts the plan as progress and circumstances evolve to ensure therapy remains relevant and practical.
Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility for people balancing work, family, and other obligations. These remote options make it easier to attend regularly and to use therapeutic tools in everyday environments, allowing licensed professionals to support clients across a range of schedules and life situations.
