Steven Michael Fuller, LMFT, LPC

Steven Michael Fuller is a Licensed Marital and Family Therapist and a Licensed Professional Counselor in Oklahoma. He goes by Mike or Michael if that feels more comfortable. He has 45 years of experience helping people cope with stress, anxiety, grief, anger, depression, addictions, ADHD, and life changes. He also supports concerns around sleep, parenting, self-esteem, career questions, and issues related to LGBT identity.

Mike has worked in hospitals, youth service agencies, public schools, health departments, universities as an adjunct professor, and in private practice. That variety means he has met people at many life stages, from young adults to older adults facing aging or end-of-life questions. His background includes work with caregiver stress, cancer-related concerns, hospice and end-of-life counseling, and family of origin issues.

In sessions he focuses first on building a relationship where a person feels heard and respected. He uses that foundation to understand where someone is emotionally and where they want to go. He draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, client-centered approaches, mindfulness, and hypnotherapy to support change in practical ways.

Mike describes therapy as a collaborative process that leans on a person’s strengths. He works to help people clarify goals, try manageable changes, and reduce patterns that get in the way. He aims for a steady, respectful pace that fits each person's needs.

If you want to explore next steps, he asks people to choose a Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire to schedule according to his availability. He accepts international clients and conducts work in English.

Approaches that translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and finding direction in life. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so the person feels understood and can make their own decisions; it helps with self-esteem, grief, and relationship concerns. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and calm the nervous system, which can ease anxiety, anger, and sleep issues.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, symptoms, and preferences. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made. That collaborative process helps tailor sessions to what actually helps the individual.

The practical benefits of online therapy often include easier scheduling and fitting sessions into a busy life. Online work can make it simpler to attend brief check-ins between commitments or to use video when face-to-face contact is not possible. The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking to know whether video, phone, or other formats are offered. Online sessions can make regular support more achievable for people managing health challenges, caregiving duties, or work obligations.
