About Tiara
Tiara Shoals is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Oklahoma who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, and self-esteem struggles. She focuses on practical steps clients can use day to day. She aims to make the first step easier by offering steady support while people figure out what they want to change.
She creates a welcoming space where clients can talk through thoughts and feelings without fear of judgment.
Background and approach
Conversations are centered on each person's needs and pace. Sessions often focus on clear goals and small, doable actions between meetings. Tiara uses Client-Centered Therapy to build trust and to help people feel heard.
She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which helps spot unhelpful thinking and try new behaviors. These approaches are used to address mood concerns, relationship and family problems, grief, and life transitions. Her work includes support for parenting challenges, blended family issues, and navigating non-monogamous relationship dynamics.
She also helps with workplace stress, compassion fatigue, and concerns common to women, including postpartum and pregnancy-related issues. Sessions are offered in English and provided through a mix of video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Tiara brings three years of professional experience and typically helps clients break concerns into manageable steps and goals.
How Tiara Uses Talk and Skills Work Online
Tiara combines Client-Centered Therapy with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people through online sessions. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening with empathy and helping the client lead the conversation. This approach is helpful when someone needs a calm space to sort feelings and set their own goals.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. It uses concrete exercises and small behavior changes to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and handle stress or relationship patterns.
Choosing the right approach is a team process. Tiara will talk with each person about goals, daily challenges, and preferences, then adapt methods that feel most useful. Clients are invited to try techniques and give feedback so plans can change as needed.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different lifestyles. Video calls let people work face to face; phone sessions can be quicker and use less bandwidth; chat or text is useful for short check-ins or when typing feels easier. These options make scheduling simpler and help people keep therapy consistent alongside work, parenting, or other commitments.
