About Lavon
Lavon Clark is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma, parenting struggles, depression, ADHD, and relationship or family concerns. She presents information plainly and aims to make the first steps feel manageable for parents and caregivers looking for support. Clark draws on six years of clinical practice in mental health and educational settings.
She listens for what matters most and helps clients create practical plans that fit their daily lives.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on clear goals, step-by-step coping tools, and changes that families and individuals can use right away. Her background includes many roles across four decades in the helping professions, including work as a licensed child care provider, therapeutic foster parent, paraprofessional for children with special needs, and mental health aide.
That varied experience informs how she views challenges across home, school, and medical settings. Clark earned an Associate of General Studies with a focus on Early Childhood Education, a Bachelor of Science in Social Work, and a Master of Science in Social Work. She lists her Oklahoma license as OK LCSW 8292 and practices as an LCSW.
In sessions she centers the Person-In-Environment view to understand how surroundings affect daily functioning. She combines that perspective with evidence-based techniques to address problems such as grief, anger, eating concerns, self-esteem, and coping with life changes. The goal is practical change that fits the client’s life.
Clark works in English and provides services to people located in Oklahoma. She aims to build a compassionate working relationship and to help clients move toward clearer coping and more manageable routines.
Practical approaches and online sessions that fit your life
Person-In-Environment is a way of looking at problems that connects a person’s feelings and behaviors to their home, school, work, and relationships. This approach helps identify small changes in routines or supports that can make daily life easier.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches skills to change unhelpful thinking and to build coping strategies for anxiety, depression, anger, and ADHD-related challenges.
Trauma-focused work concentrates on understanding how past hurt affects current reactions and safety. It helps people process difficult events and develop tools for emotion regulation and grounding.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to choose techniques that match goals, needs, and preferences. That collaboration means plans are adjusted over time based on what helps most.
Online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules. Video calls offer face-to-face discussion, phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text messaging work well for shorter check-ins or when writing feels easier. These formats support consistent work toward goals while offering flexibility for different days and routines.
