About Wendy

Wendy Theriot is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas with 11 years of experience. She focuses on listening closely and creating an open space where people can say what they are feeling without judgment. Wendy emphasizes practical steps parents and adults can use to sleep better and handle daily stressors.

Her approach centers on helping people notice what gets in the way of rest and wellbeing. She uses client-centered work to follow each person's pace and priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify unhelpful thoughts and habits that keep sleep from coming. Dialectical Behavior Therapy offers skills for emotional regulation when feelings feel overwhelming.

Wendy also draws on mindfulness techniques to calm the body and mind. For relationship and intimacy concerns she uses elements from the Gottman Method to improve communication and rebuild trust. She helps people with grief, chronic illness, ADHD, addiction, and other overlapping issues that affect sleep and daily functioning.

Sessions focus on clear, doable strategies. Wendy talks through small changes that can fit into a busy schedule. She works with clients on coping skills, sleep routines, and ways to manage anxiety and mood symptoms that disrupt rest.

Her style is steady and nonjudgmental, with concrete tools offered alongside supportive listening. To begin, a short matching process helps connect someone to the right schedule and plan for their needs.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Wendy uses Client-Centered Therapy to follow each person's priorities and pace, creating space for people to share what matters most. This approach helps when someone needs a listening, nonjudgmental environment to talk through sleep problems, stress, or relationship concerns.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify and change thoughts and habits that interfere with rest and daily functioning. CBT can help with insomnia-related patterns, anxious thinking, and mood symptoms by teaching practical steps and behavioral experiments.

Finding the right approach is part of the process, and Wendy collaborates with each person to decide what fits best. She will talk through goals, preferences, and daily routines to shape a plan that feels doable and relevant to the client's life.

Please confirm current session options before booking, as the biography does not list specific formats. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, save travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when that suits your schedule. Licensed professionals can use remote sessions to teach sleep routines, practice CBT exercises, and coach mindfulness skills so tools can be applied between appointments.
