About Wendy
Wendy Theriot is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 11 years of experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, relationships, depression, bipolar disorder, addictions, grief, parenting concerns, and family of origin issues. Sessions also address eating and sleeping problems, self-esteem, anger, and coping with life changes.
Wendy uses straightforward, person-focused methods to help people talk through what feels stuck. She draws on client-centered work and cognitive behavioral techniques to identify patterns and try small, practical changes. Mindfulness practices and skills from dialectical behavior therapy are also part of her approach when they fit the situation.
People bring a wide range of concerns, including attachment and abandonment questions, adoption and foster care experiences, blended family stress, communication challenges, body image, chronic illness, caregiver strain, and career or coaching needs. She also works with issues commonly tied to ADHD, codependency, and commitment worries. Conversations focus on what shows up now and how past family roles still influence choices and relationships.
Wendy aims to be direct and clear about options in therapy. Sessions typically involve talking, skill practice, and simple exercises to build coping tools. She helps clients weigh different strategies and decide what to try between meetings.
Sessions are conducted in English. Prospective clients should confirm current session formats and scheduling details before booking.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what someone says to help them clarify their own goals and choices. Online sessions using this approach still center on conversation and understanding what matters most to the client.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and tests small changes to see what helps. In remote sessions CBT translates into concrete homework, short exercises, and reviewing patterns together during the appointment.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) provides practical skills for distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness. When relevant these skills can be taught and practiced in video or phone meetings and then tested between sessions.
Deciding which approach to use is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to pick methods that match goals, current challenges, and preferences. That choice can shift as progress is made.
Confirm the current session formats before booking, as session options are not detailed here. Online work can help fit therapy into a busy life - it can make scheduling easier, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Some formats use less bandwidth or let people do sessions without being on camera, which can make it easier to keep regular appointments.
