About John
John Klenke is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Oklahoma who focuses on helping people cope with stress, anxiety, depression, and life changes. He uses straightforward conversation and practical tools to support clients as they work toward clearer goals and better daily functioning. John shapes sessions around each person's needs.
He listens first, then suggests steps that feel manageable. Sessions aim to build confidence, improve motivation, and reduce the overwhelm that comes with big transitions.
Background and approach
He has five years of clinical experience across common concerns like relationship strain, grief, addiction issues, and work-related stress. ADHD is listed among his focus areas, and he helps people facing attention and organization challenges find clearer routines and strategies.
John draws on several approaches, including client-centered methods that emphasize the person's own goals, cognitive behavioral ideas that target unhelpful thoughts and habits, and emotionally focused work to improve important connections. He also uses existential ideas and mindfulness practices when those fit the client's goals. People who meet with John can expect a respectful, direct style.
He aims to make change feel possible by breaking problems into smaller steps. The work is collaborative and paced to what each person can handle. His practice welcomes English-speaking clients in Oklahoma and internationally.
Sessions are offered in formats such as video calls, phone, live chat, and text messaging to match different needs and schedules.
Approach-driven care available online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on building a collaborative relationship where the client's goals guide the work; this helps people gain clarity and feel heard. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and behaviors interact and offers concrete strategies to change unhelpful patterns, which is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people understand and shift core emotional responses in relationships, supporting better connection and communication.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before. Together they decide which methods to try first and adjust the plan as progress is made, keeping the work collaborative and goal oriented.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues matter. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or a quieter audio check-in is preferred. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for brief check-ins, reminders, or steps between full sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving, or travel while keeping a steady course of support.
