Kenneth Ferguson, LMFT

Licensed MARRIAGE & fAMILY THERAPIST

Although I am a native Texan, I have lived in Oklahoma for over 20 years. I have worked in the mental health field since 2007 in direct care, management, training, and support roles. In my free time, I enjoy going to the movies, playing video games, watching plenty of soccer and the San Antonio Spurs. If I have the opportunity to get away, I will most likely be found in one of our beautiful national parks in the western United States. My partner on these journeys is my wife, Melanie, whom I have been married to for over 15 years.

I graduated from Oklahoma Baptist University with a Master of Science in Marriage and Family Therapy. My experience in mental health began as I worked in an inpatient setting with children (ages 6-18). After occupying a variety of roles at that program, I transitioned to working with a foster care non-profit with parents and children of all ages. After I began training to become a therapist, I worked in an outpatient setting with couples, individuals, children, and families. And most recently I was employed in a partial hospitalization or day treatment setting with children (ages 5-14) and their families.

My Core Beliefs

I believe you are doing the best you can to meet your needs at any given time.
I believe you want to live in a safe environment where your basic physical, mental, social, and emotional needs are met without cost to others.
I believe you are the expert on your own life and relationships.
I believe we find satisfaction and contentment by having the freedom to make choices that align with whom we want to be and what we value.

Because of these beliefs, I don’t see myself as an advice giver or a guru with secret knowledge to bestow, but as a professional who is invited to assist people on their journey to living in a more preferred way. I see our meetings as an invitation from you to me, and my goal is to honor that invitation by listening, believing, and respecting your humanity, autonomy, beliefs, needs, and experiences.
