About Wendy
Wendy Theriot is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 11 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, mood disorders, addictions, grief, parenting strain, and anger. She also supports people dealing with self-esteem, career stress, ADHD, and other life changes.
Her approach centers on talking through what is happening now and finding practical steps to change daily life. She uses Client-Centered Therapy to focus on the person in the room. She also brings Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for emotional regulation.
Wendy aims to make sessions straightforward and down-to-earth. Conversations may include skill practice, goal-setting, and checking what works between appointments. She helps people develop tools for handling tense moments, managing resentment, and reducing frequent outbursts.
Her work includes addressing complex backgrounds such as attachment concerns, adoption and foster care issues, and caregiving stress. She also supports people navigating chronic illness, body image worries, disordered eating patterns, and codependency struggles.
Clients can expect a mix of problem-focused techniques and reflective conversation. The emphasis is on usable strategies a person can apply at home and at work. To begin, clients follow the site's online matching steps and schedule a first session.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to the person in the room. Online sessions can use that same focus by giving space to what feels most pressing and shaping work around personal goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts influence feelings and behaviors; it often involves homework and short skill practice between sessions to test new ways of thinking and acting. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds specific skills for managing intense emotions and improving moment-to-moment coping, which can be practiced in brief exercises during video or phone check-ins.Choosing an approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, try techniques, and adjust methods based on what helps. That collaborative process means the first few sessions are often about finding which combination of talking and skills practice fits best for the person's needs and preferences.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - shorter check-ins, avoiding travel time, and being able to join from a quieter setting. Licensed professionals can use video for more interactive exercises or phone for a simpler check-in, and the choice often comes down to what matches daily schedules and comfort rather than clinical effectiveness.
