01About Sherlyn
Sherlyn Conlan is a licensed professional counselor in Oklahoma with 25 years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and parenting challenges. Her approach is direct and down-to-earth, aimed at practical change and clearer day-to-day functioning.
Sherlyn uses techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice unhelpful thinking and try different ways of responding. She also draws on acceptance and commitment therapy to help clients clarify personal values and take workable steps toward them.
Background and approach
Solution-focused methods are used when someone needs short-term, goal-oriented support. Trauma-focused work is part of her practice when past hurt affects current mood, relationships, or behavior. She pays attention to how trauma, grief, and caregiver stress can shape reactions and coping.
Sherlyn also addresses concerns such as ADHD, obsessive thoughts, panic attacks, postpartum depression, and feelings of isolation. In sessions she aims for clear, practical conversations. People leave with tools they can use between meetings and a plan for small, steady progress.
Her style is warm and steady, but focused on what helps in everyday life. Sherlyn works with adults on issues related to attachment, adoption and foster care concerns, control issues, and mood disorders. She uses her years of experience to tailor methods to each person’s needs and goals.

04Online support
Approaches that translate well to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts, name what matters to them, and take small steps toward those values. It is useful for anxiety, low mood, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and offers concrete exercises to reduce symptoms of depression, panic, and obsessive thinking. Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates attention on how past events affect current functioning and provides strategies to process and reduce the impact of traumatic memories.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to choose methods that match their goals, comfort level, and the issues they bring. Together they will check in and adapt techniques so the work fits the client's pace and priorities.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care more flexible. Video calls are good for conversations that benefit from visual cues. Phone sessions can fit into a short break or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or text lets people check in between calls or use written updates when that feels easier. These options aim to make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life while focusing on real, usable change.
