About Wendy
Wendy Theriot is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with 11 years of experience. She focuses on helping people talk through stress, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, and trauma.
Background and approach
Wendy aims to make the first steps into therapy feel manageable and respectful of each person's pace. Her sessions emphasize clear, direct conversation and practical tools.
She uses methods that help people notice unhelpful thoughts, manage strong emotions, and improve communication. That work can be useful for coping with grief, addiction, bipolar mood challenges, or problems with sleep and eating.
Wendy draws on the Gottman Method to help people address relationship patterns and improve interaction. She also uses client-centered techniques to keep the work grounded in each person's goals.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy ideas are woven in to teach skills for behavior change and distress tolerance. Wendy also supports people facing life changes like caregiving stress, chronic illness, adoption and foster care concerns, or career transitions.
She pays attention to attachment issues, abandonment wounds, and body image or intimacy-related struggles. Sessions focus on steps a person can take between meetings to feel steadier.
Therapy sessions are offered in English and delivered online by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging. Wendy communicates in straightforward language and works collaboratively to find approaches that fit each person's needs.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Wendy commonly integrates the Gottman Method to address interaction patterns and communication skills, helping people notice repeated behaviors and try different ways of connecting. She also uses Client-Centered Therapy to keep the work focused on each person's goals and values, offering a respectful, listening-based stance that centers the client's perspective.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Wendy will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, and then adjust methods as needed. That makes therapy a collaborative process rather than a one-size-fits-all plan.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which offer flexibility for different needs. Video works well for in-depth conversations and skill practice, phone sessions are a good option when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or messaging can support brief check-ins or ongoing coaching between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to keep momentum between meetings.
