About Steven
Steven Michael Fuller is a licensed counselor in Oklahoma who helps people manage stress, anxiety, grief, anger, and depression. He commonly supports people facing life changes, addiction concerns, sleeping problems, parenting strain, and self-esteem or career questions. He goes by Mike or Michael, whichever feels comfortable to the client.
Mike draws on 45 years of experience across hospitals, youth services, public schools, university settings, health departments, and independent practice. That variety has exposed him to many kinds of concerns and many ages.
Background and approach
He has worked with issues such as family of origin struggles, attention and impulsivity, hospice and end-of-life counseling, and caregiver stress. His first aim is to build a relationship where a person feels heard, respected, and understood. Once trust is established, he and the client look at where the person is emotionally and where they want to go.
He uses a collaborative process that leans on a person’s strengths to reach practical changes. Therapeutic approaches include Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, client-centered methods, mindfulness work, and hypnotherapy. In sessions he focuses on clear goals and real-life steps that fit daily routines.
He explains approaches plainly and adapts them to each person’s needs. People often begin by naming one or two problems they want to change. From there Mike helps set manageable short-term goals and tracks progress over time.
He encourages small, steady steps that add up to meaningful shifts in behavior and outlook.
How his approaches translate to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. Online ACT sessions focus on practical exercises and small behavioral steps to reduce avoidance and increase meaningful activity. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening, empathy, and a nonjudgmental relationship where clients set the pace; online sessions use that same supportive stance to help people feel understood and explore goals. Hypnotherapy involves guided relaxation and focused attention to support behavior change and reduce stress; in virtual sessions this can be delivered through calming verbal guidance and structured exercises.Choosing the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will discuss your concerns, goals, and preferences and then try methods that match what you need. Adjustments happen along the way, and methods are combined when that seems helpful.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for full conversations and visual cues. Phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited or you prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging work for shorter check-ins, quick coping strategies, or when writing feels more helpful. These options make scheduling more flexible and allow therapy to fit into busy days.
