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, depression, relationship concerns, trauma, and other life challenges often faced in early adulthood. Wendy also supports people coping with bipolar disorder, addiction, grief, anger, and self-esteem issues.
She uses Client-Centered Therapy to build a working relationship that centers the person's own goals and perspectives. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is part of her approach when unhelpful thoughts and behaviors are getting in the way. Mindfulness techniques and skills from Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) are also used to help manage strong emotions.
Wendy helps people who are dealing with career transitions, parenting strain, sleep or eating concerns, and the stress of major life changes. She also addresses attachment-related themes like abandonment, adoption and foster care experiences, and blended family dynamics. Practical problem solving is often part of sessions when life feels overwhelming.
She pays attention to co-occurring challenges such as chronic illness, caregiver stress, and codependency. She also works with people who have ADHD, autism spectrum considerations, or communication and commitment issues. Sessions aim to clarify goals and develop skills for everyday situations.
Wendy practices in Texas and conducts therapy in English. She asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session to get started.
How her approaches translate to online work
Wendy commonly blends Client-Centered Therapy with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills in her practice. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and shaping goals around what matters most to the client. CBT looks at patterns of thinking and behavior and helps people test and change unhelpful thoughts. DBT skills teach concrete strategies for managing intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness.Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Wendy works together with each person to pick methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. That might mean more skills work at first, or a focus on practical problem solving during life transitions like finishing school or starting a new job.
