About Wendy

Wendy Theriot is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas. She creates a calm setting where people can talk about hard things. She acknowledges that starting therapy takes courage and affirms that first step.

Wendy focuses on stress and anxiety, depression, bipolar concerns, addictions, and trauma and abuse. She also helps with relationship and intimacy issues, grief, self-esteem, anger, parenting strain, and career challenges. Her practice includes attention to ADHD, compassion fatigue, and life transitions.

Her work draws on client-centered methods alongside cognitive behavioral techniques and mindfulness tools. Wendy uses practical strategies to help people recognize patterns, try new behaviors, and practice skills between sessions. She keeps language straightforward and concrete during meetings.

Wendy has 11 years of professional work in behavioral health in Texas. That experience informs how she matches approaches to a person's needs. She pays attention to life context, such as caregiving demands, chronic illness, or adoption and attachment histories.

People meet with her to talk through problems like coping with change, communication struggles, body image, blended family concerns, or chronic pain and illness. She aims to support clients as they build clearer goals and take manageable steps toward them. If you want to begin, use the site Start Therapy flow to match and schedule.

How her approaches translate to online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and building a collaborative relationship so the client feels heard and supported. Online sessions using this approach center on clean, direct conversation and collaborative goal setting to address concerns like stress, grief, or relationship communication.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that keep problems going. In online sessions CBT is used to set clear goals, try small experiments between meetings, and practice coping skills for anxiety, depression, or sleep and eating difficulties.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Wendy will help figure out which methods match a client's goals, needs, and preferences and will adjust the plan as progress is made. That choice is collaborative and can change over time.

The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm which formats are offered before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when useful, and remove travel time. Licensed professionals can often use remote sessions to practice skills, review homework, and maintain momentum between meetings.
