About Nolan

Nolan Chojnacki is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Oklahoma with eight years of clinical experience. He works primarily with adults and lists stress, anxiety, addiction, depression, relationship struggles, and grief among the concerns he addresses. Nolan also notes experience with issues linked to shame and guilt through trauma, intimacy, and life transitions.

Nolan began his work in community mental health and has supported people across early adulthood into midlife. He has worked with those facing career pressures, compassion fatigue, and challenges tied to identity and relationships. His background includes work with clients navigating attachment wounds, adoption and foster care questions, and concerns around sexual expression and kink.

In session he uses straightforward, talk-based methods. He blends cognitive behavioral techniques with client-centered and acceptance-oriented practices. He also draws on attachment-focused ideas and skills from dialectical behavior approaches when emotion regulation is needed.

Nolan emphasizes listening without judgment and helping people recognize strengths they already have. He focuses on clear goals and practical steps people can try between meetings. Conversations are shaped around what the person needs to address guilt, shame, or the problems that follow them each day.

His approach is collaborative: he and the client decide which techniques to try and when to adjust the plan. Nolan works in English and practices in Oklahoma. Prospective clients should confirm current session formats and scheduling options before booking.

How Nolan’s approaches translate to online work

Nolan commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) online. ACT helps people notice painful thoughts and choose actions that align with their values even when hard feelings show up. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and trying concrete behavior or thought changes that reduce distress.

Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. Nolan will talk with the client about goals, try methods that suit those goals, and adjust plans based on what helps. The first few sessions are used to agree on priorities and practical steps the person can try between meetings.

The biography does not specify session formats here, so please confirm current online session options before booking. Many people find online sessions help fit therapy into busy days, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Nolan aims to match the method and scheduling to the client’s life while focusing on tangible skills for managing guilt, shame, relationships, and everyday stress.
