About Cindy
Cindy Hannigan is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) based in Texas who helps people facing stress, anxiety, sleep problems, and relationship difficulties. She also works with individuals coping with depression, addiction, grief, parenting strain, and changes in career or life circumstances. Her approach is calm and direct, aimed at practical steps clients can use right away.
In sessions she focuses on building better day-to-day routines, improving communication, and managing strong emotions. Cindy draws on cognitive behavioral ideas to spot unhelpful thinking and on acceptance-based methods to help people move toward meaningful values. She also uses attachment-informed work to look at how early relationships affect current patterns.
Cindy keeps things collaborative. She talks with each person about goals, then chooses strategies that fit their life and needs. Therapy often involves short skill practice, reflection on relationship patterns, and planning small experiments between meetings.
With 12 years of clinical experience, Cindy has supported clients through trauma, persistent mood concerns, and neurodiversity-related challenges such as autism or ADHD. She brings an affirming stance toward LGBTQ+ people and those handling blended family or caregiver stress.
People who choose her tend to be seeking clear tools and steady support rather than long academic explanations. To get started a person completes a short questionnaire, then schedules sessions based on availability.
How therapy approaches shape online care
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people notice thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and then try small experiments to change them; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and sleep routines. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on what matters most to someone and uses acceptance and committed action to move toward those values, which can help with stress, grief, and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns show up now and helps people practice new ways of relating to others and to themselves.Finding the best approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to pick methods that match a person's goals and daily life. That choice can change over time as needs shift, and clients are invited to give feedback about what is or isn't helping.
Confirm current session options before booking so you know which formats are available. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, cut travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people try behavioral experiments between meetings and bring real-life sleep and routine issues into conversation. Licensed professionals can tailor session pacing, homework, and skills practice to how a person lives each day.
