About Tamika

Tamika Burrough is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Oklahoma. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, addiction concerns, grief, and relationship problems. She also supports clients facing parenting strain, career shifts, codependency, and trauma and abuse. Tamika emphasizes respect and straightforward care for people taking the step to get help.

Her approach is open and client-centered. Tamika uses methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to help with coping skills and mood regulation. She also draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy and Motivational Interviewing when the work centers on relationships or motivation to change.

In sessions she focuses on practical strategies. That may include identifying unhelpful thinking patterns, practicing new ways to manage emotions, or setting small goals to build confidence. Conversations are collaborative and paced to the person's needs.

With 16 years of experience, Tamika has worked with a broad range of concerns, including codependency, abandonment issues, and caregiver stress. Her style aims to empower people to make steady progress rather than promising quick fixes.

People who choose to work with her can expect clear communication and a focus on real-life steps. She invites anyone ready to take a step toward change to complete a brief intake and begin the matching process.

Therapeutic approaches for online sessions

Tamika commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and changing behaviors to improve mood and daily functioning. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, and problems with stress. She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills that can help with strong emotions and relationship patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Tamika will discuss goals and preferences, then tailor techniques so they fit each person’s situation. The process is collaborative and paced to what the person needs rather than following a fixed script.

The therapist biography does not list session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow short check-ins when schedules are tight. It also lets people use tools like worksheets or between-session exercises that support progress between appointments.
