About Cindy
Cindy Hannigan is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with 12 years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, anger, relationship problems, addiction, grief, and other life adjustments. Sessions are conducted in English and focus on practical steps people can use day to day.
Cindy helps people reduce reactivity and communicate more clearly when frustration feels overwhelming. She also supports those dealing with workplace stress, sleeping problems, intimacy-related concerns, and challenges tied to identity and sexual orientation. Her approach treats each concern as part of a person’s life, not a label to carry.
Her way of working is collaborative and down-to-earth. She uses evidence-informed methods to build coping skills, improve emotional awareness, and change unhelpful thinking or behavior patterns. People who struggle with anger often learn techniques to notice triggers, pause before reacting, and choose responses that fit their goals.
Cindy draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy. Those approaches guide hands-on practice in sessions and homework between meetings. Over time clients focus less on quick fixes and more on steady, practical strategy.
She also addresses issues like ADHD, bipolar mood concerns, chronic health stress, parenting strain, and codependency. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the site.
How sessions work
How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and values-based action. It helps people accept uncomfortable feelings and pick actions that align with what matters to them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors to reduce unhelpful patterns and teach practical skills for stress, anger, and mood problems.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each client to see which methods fit their goals and daily life. That means trying strategies, reviewing how they land, and adjusting plans together rather than committing to a single method up front.
Confirm current session options before booking because formats are not listed in the profile. Many people find online sessions easier to fit into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Online work still lets a therapist guide skill practice, assign between-session exercises, and track progress over weeks so sessions can focus on what helps most in everyday situations.
