About Cathy
Cathy Henderson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 35 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, trauma and abuse, and issues with self-esteem. Cathy also focuses on codependency, abandonment, family of origin concerns, and problems with communication.
She uses straightforward conversation to help people notice patterns that keep them stuck. Sessions are practical. Cathy draws on client-centered work to listen and reflect what matters to each person. She also uses cognitive behavioral ideas to spot unhelpful thoughts and try different ways of responding.
Mindfulness practices are part of her approach when clients want tools to manage strong feelings. Those practices are offered in small, doable steps that can fit into a busy day. Cathy encourages simple skills people can use between sessions to reduce overwhelm and build confidence.
Her style is direct and steady. She helps people name how they keep putting others first and what that costs them. Together they look at patterns in relationships, substance use, and family history that affect daily life.
Clients can expect focused conversation, practical coping ideas, and small experiments to try between sessions. Cathy asks questions, reflects what she hears, and helps shape a plan people can use outside the counseling hour.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and online sessions
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns of thinking that increase stress or anxiety and then testing new, more helpful ways of thinking and behaving. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and habits connected to substance use.Client-Centered Therapy centers on listening and reflecting so the person sets the pace and priorities. This approach helps people feel understood and clarifies what they want to change. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention practices to reduce reactivity and manage strong emotions, useful when trauma, shame, or codependent patterns lead to overwhelm.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Cathy will discuss options and help decide which methods match the client’s goals and preferences. That decision is collaborative and can shift as needs change.
Confirm current session formats before booking since specific options are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Many people use online sessions to practice new interaction skills between meetings and to add therapy into a normal routine without rearranging their day.
