About Shalom
Shalom Palacio-Hollmon is an Oklahoma-based psychologist with 20 years of experience. She focuses on helping people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, or the fallout from trauma. She speaks directly and calmly, and she encourages people who are nervous about starting therapy to take the first step.
She centers the work on each person's strengths and life story. She listens for what matters most, then helps clients build clear, manageable steps to feel steadier.
Background and approach
Sessions emphasize practical strategies for daily life and ways to cope with major changes. Her practice includes supporting people with relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting strain, anger, bipolar mood swings, and attention-related challenges such as ADHD. She also addresses caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, and the emotional effects of immigration or separation.
Shalom has worked on grief, isolation, postpartum mood changes, panic and trauma-related symptoms. She draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to tailor the approach to each person’s needs. Her goal is to make therapy feel usable and relevant to everyday routines.
Clients may find her helpful when they need a steady, practical perspective and tools that fit their life. Her Oklahoma licensure is listed as OK Psychologist 1106, and she conducts sessions in English. She welcomes people from different places, including international clients.
Approaches that guide online treatment
Shalom draws on broadly used, evidence-based techniques that focus on practical change and emotional recovery. One approach emphasizes identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them against real-life evidence to reduce anxiety and low mood; it helps people spot patterns and try small behavioral changes. Another approach focuses on building skills for coping with distress and strong emotions, teaching step-by-step strategies to manage overwhelming reactions and increase emotional stability.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist listens to your goals, reviews what has and hasn’t helped before, and suggests options that fit your needs. Together you track what works and make adjustments so the plan stays useful and realistic.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to add flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and shared materials, while phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or messaging can be used for shorter check-ins, quick coping tips, or when scheduling makes real-time sessions difficult. These formats help people fit therapy into busy days, travel, or different time zones while keeping the work focused on practical changes.
