About Tova
Tova Pete is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 11 years of experience. She works with adults on depression, anxiety, relationship and parenting concerns, ADHD, and related life changes. She also lists family of origin issues among her focus areas.
Tova uses a person-centered way of working. Sessions are collaborative and practical. She listens for patterns that come from the family someone grew up in and helps people name how those patterns show up now.
Her practice draws on several evidence-informed models. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify unhelpful thinking and try different behavioral experiments. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills are offered for managing strong emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness.
Mindfulness techniques and Motivational Interviewing also appear in her approach. These tools support clearer decision making, increased emotional awareness, and steady progress toward goals. Treatment plans are made together and adjusted as needed.
Tova commonly addresses attachment and abandonment concerns, blended family and parenting tensions, communication problems, and issues around commitment and intimacy. She helps people work through grief, caregiver strain, anger, and self-esteem struggles.
She practices in Texas and works in English. Before booking, people are encouraged to confirm current session formats and scheduling details to make sure the arrangements fit their needs.
How her approaches guide online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and collaboration. The therapist follows the client's concerns and helps set goals that make sense for their life. This approach helps when people want someone who will respond to what matters most to them.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors together. It helps people test assumptions, try small behavior experiments, and track what changes. CBT can be useful for anxiety, depression, and problematic habits that stem from family patterns.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) provides concrete skills for emotion regulation and better communication. DBT-style skills can be helpful for strong emotional reactions and relationship conflicts.
Finding the right blend of methods is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to choose approaches that fit their goals, values, and day-to-day routine. That process includes trying an idea and adjusting it based on what helps.
If you plan to meet online, confirm the session formats offered before booking so they match your schedule and needs. Many people find that virtual sessions make it easier to fit therapy into a workday, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Ask about specific session options when arranging the first appointment to ensure they suit your circumstances.
