About Shalom
Shalom Palacio-Hollmon is an Oklahoma licensed psychologist with 20 years of professional experience. She supports people facing stress, anxiety, trauma, depression, and major life changes. She emphasizes clients' strengths and encourages the first step toward getting help. She speaks English and accepts international clients.
In sessions she centers the person's own story and strengths. She asks questions to understand what matters most and works with each person to set practical goals. Conversations focus on skills people can use day to day to manage mood, reduce worry, and navigate transitions.
Her background includes long-term clinical work in mood and trauma-related concerns. That experience informs her approach to issues such as panic, bipolar mood shifts, post-traumatic stress, and postpartum depression. She also addresses concerns tied to family of origin, divorce and separation, immigration, and caregiver stress.
Shalom helps people dealing with relationship and intimacy-related issues, parenting strain, and loneliness. She also supports those coping with chronic pain, illness, or disability and people working through personality disorder challenges or disruptive mood issues in young people.

Approaches that guide online work and wellbeing
Shalom uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change and skill building. One common method she uses helps people learn clear tools to manage anxiety and panic symptoms, such as breathing and attention strategies and step-by-step ways to face feared situations. These techniques are useful for day-to-day worry, panic attacks, and stress at work or home.She also draws on trauma-informed practices that help people process difficult events at a pace that feels manageable. These approaches combine grounding exercises, pacing of difficult material, and rebuilding routines and safety in daily life; they are aimed at reducing post-traumatic stress reactions and improving sleep and concentration.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to your goals, try methods that fit your needs, and adjust plans as you progress. Clients and the therapist decide together which techniques feel most helpful in practice.
If you are considering online therapy, check the current session options before booking since formats are not listed in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a weekday break, avoid travel time, or use audio-only check-ins when video is impractical. Licensed professionals often adapt tools so skills can be practiced between sessions and applied directly to work and wellbeing challenges.
