Holly Lampkin, LMFT

Holly Lampkin is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) who helps people navigate stress, anxiety, relationship strain, and midlife challenges. She works with clients facing depression, addiction, trauma and abuse, grief, body image concerns, and questions about intimacy. Holly aims to make therapy straightforward and focused on real change.

Holly uses brief, clear conversations to identify what matters most to each person. She draws on cognitive behavioral ideas to spot patterns that feed worry and low mood. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy techniques help people notice painful thoughts without getting stuck in them.

Her background includes seven years of clinical experience and practice in Oklahoma. Holly emphasizes practical skills such as coping strategies, communication tools, and steps for setting healthier boundaries. She also pays attention to attachment wounds, abandonment issues, and the effects of religious or cultural beliefs.

Sessions often focus on workable goals: lowering anxiety, improving relationship communication, or reducing harmful habits. She also supports people dealing with blended family stress, divorce and separation, and recovery from domestic violence.

Holly adapts methods to fit a person’s preferences, drawing on mindfulness, emotionally-focused work, and elements of the Gottman Method when relationship repair is needed. Her approach is direct but compassionate, aimed at helping people build clearer choices and better day-to-day habits.

How her approaches guide online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting entangled in them, then choosing actions that match your values; it can help with midlife doubts, anxiety, and life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks down unhelpful thinking and behavioral patterns and teaches specific skills to reduce anxiety and depressive symptoms. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people understand and shift emotional responses in close relationships to improve connection and reduce conflict.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Holly will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, and together they decide which methods to try. She adjusts techniques as progress unfolds so the work stays practical and relevant.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the exact session formats available before booking since the biography does not specify them. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow for shorter check-ins when time is limited, and remove travel time so sessions can happen during a lunch break or between errands. Some methods translate well to remote discussions and worksheet exercises, and Holly can recommend which tools and homework will best suit an online setting based on your needs.
