About Barbara
Barbara Traylor-Lane is an Oklahoma Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 14 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, and depression. She also helps people facing caregiver strain, communication and control issues, guilt and shame, and questions about life purpose and midlife changes.
Barbara speaks plainly in sessions and focuses on practical steps people can use between meetings. She encourages open conversation about thoughts and feelings so clients can test what helps in day-to-day life. Sessions often include talking through responses to stress, building ways to manage impulses, and practicing skills to reduce panic and social anxiety.
Her background includes long-term work with people recovering from trauma and with mood concerns. Over 14 years she has supported clients who struggle with isolation, insomnia from anxiety, and setbacks connected to addiction. She frames problems as patterns to notice and change rather than labels to carry.
People explore relationship communication, forgiveness, and self-worth in straightforward ways. Barbara also assists those asking what matters next in work or personal life, helping them clarify values and next steps without promising a specific outcome. The focus is on small, achievable changes that fit the person’s routine.

How her approaches translate to online work
Barbara uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people manage symptoms and make changes in everyday life. Cognitive-behavioral based methods focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors; this can reduce anxiety, panic symptoms, and low mood by changing how people respond to triggers.Skills-based work trains practical coping tools, such as breathing and grounding for panic attacks, strategies for impulse control, and communication exercises to improve difficult conversations. These tools are practiced in session and then tried in daily routines to see what fits.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. She will collaborate with each person to decide which techniques match their needs, goals, and preferences. That decision is reviewed over time and adjusted as progress or challenges appear.

Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. Many people find remote appointments helpful for maintaining regular contact while juggling work, caregiving, or other responsibilities.
