Notice-- The "More" list does not completely show on some computers, such as a tablet. If you make the page smaller, it will show at the bottom, or if you attach a mouse with a scroll wheel, it will do so.
On a laptop, pressing the "left click" on a vacant area and using the arrow keys will allow you to reach the bottom items. Sometimes it works better if you release the left click and then use the arrow key. (A Chromebook laptop may not scroll all the way down.)
Notice-- I do not accept suicidal clients. If you have that sort of problem, please contact the Crisis Center at:
Oklahoma County Crisis Intervention Center
2625 General Pershing Blvd. (East of Fairgrounds)

If you or any other person may be in physical danger - don't rely on counseling alone.
