Oddette Parker-Chieco

Oddette Parker-Chieco is a Kentucky LPCC with nine years of clinical experience. She focuses on depression, anxiety, trauma and abuse, relationship concerns, self-esteem, and stress. She also lists life purpose among her areas of work. Oddette works with adults who feel stuck after a change or who are unsure about what comes next.

Her sessions emphasize straightforward conversation and practical steps. She helps people name painful feelings like shame, isolation, or guilt. She also addresses attachment wounds and difficult relationship patterns. The aim is to give clients clearer ways to cope and communicate, not to promise instant fixes.

Oddette uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques in her practice. That means she draws on methods shown to be helpful for mood disorders, trauma, and anxiety. In sessions she combines listening with concrete strategies people can try between meetings. This often includes building new routines and testing different ways of relating to others.

She brings a multicultural perspective to her work and attends to how culture affects feelings and choices. She supports parents and people with adoption or foster care histories, and she addresses issues such as abandonment and attachment problems. She also notes work with aging and geriatric issues and mood disorders.

Her style is practical and collaborative. Clients can expect to talk through current stressors, practice communication skills, and plan small experiments to test new approaches. For first steps she asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How evidence-based approaches are used online

Oddette notes that her practice draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques. One common approach focuses on recognizing and changing unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors to reduce anxiety and depression. This method teaches practical tools people can use between sessions to manage mood and stress.

Another helpful approach targets trauma and attachment wounds by gently processing difficult memories and improving current relationship skills. This work often includes learning new ways to communicate and testing small changes in relationships to see what feels different.

Choosing a therapeutic approach is part of the work she does with clients. The therapist and client review goals, preferences, and the problems at hand, then try techniques that fit those needs. That collaborative process helps decide which methods to emphasize over time.

If you plan to use online sessions, confirm the exact session formats available before booking, since formats are not listed here. Online work can make appointments easier to fit into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It can also let people meet without being on camera when they prefer less visual demand, or use audio sessions when bandwidth is limited. These practical benefits help therapy fit into everyday life.
