About Misti Luke, LCSW, SAP
With over two decades of clinical experience, I provide professional guidance to individuals dealing with work-related, legal, and personal issues. Specializing in DOT SAP evaluations, EAP referrals, mental health, substance use assessments, online counseling, and group therapy. Whether you're encountering a failed drug test or seeking support, I am here to help.
My Journey into Behavioral Health
My path to mental health began after a personal loss in 2003, which inspired me to return to college after a seven-year hiatus to complete my degree. I earned a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from Southeastern Oklahoma State University in 2004, followed by a Master of Social Work from Texas A&M University-Commerce in 2007.
Since then, I’ve worked in:
📍 Outpatient and inpatient treatment programs
📍 Residential programs for women and children
📍 Social and anger management skill-building programs
📍 Clinical mental health and substance use treatment settings
In 2015, I opened Misti Luke, LCSW Private Practice to create a judgment-free space for Oklahomans seeking help with behavioral health, workplace-related concerns, and recovery support.
