About Cathy

Cathy Henderson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 35 years of experience helping people with stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, and depression.

She works directly with individuals who bring concerns about abandonment, codependency, communication problems, and family of origin issues. Her practice also addresses drug and alcohol addiction, guilt and shame, isolation or loneliness, and women's issues. Sessions focus on practical steps people can use between meetings.

Cathy uses client-centered therapy to build conversations around each person’s experience. She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and habits, and mindfulness techniques to develop present-moment awareness. Expect straightforward talk and concrete coping strategies you can try right away.

She frames therapy as a collaborative process. Cathy and the person she works with set goals and track progress over time. Appointments are paced to fit what the individual can manage, with attention to daily demands and responsibilities.

Before a first session she asks people to describe their current concerns and what they hope to change. That information helps shape an initial plan and the kinds of techniques that will be most useful. Cathy keeps the focus on clear, doable steps rather than long theoretical discussions.

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-centered therapy focuses on the person's experience and the therapist reflecting that experience back. In practice this means conversations that prioritize what matters most to the person and adjust as those priorities change.

Cognitive behavioral therapy helps identify thoughts and behaviors that contribute to distress. Online sessions can include setting small, specific tasks between meetings and reviewing what worked in the next session.

Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention practices to reduce reactivity and increase awareness. These exercises can be practiced briefly each day and then reviewed with the therapist during sessions.

Choosing the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and the kinds of techniques the person finds acceptable. Together they decide which methods to try first and make small adjustments over time based on what helps.

Session logistics should be confirmed before booking, as current session formats are not specified here. In general, online work can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy schedule, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and let people practice skills in their everyday settings. Confirm the exact session options and scheduling details before your first appointment.
