About Annette
Annette OBryant is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 12 years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, mood concerns, trauma, and major life transitions. Her work centers on practical coping skills and clearer communication so clients can move forward from difficult moments.
She builds a calm, respectful space where people can talk through what feels stuck. Sessions emphasize listening first, then setting small, achievable goals together. Tools come from client-centered work and other approaches chosen to match each person's needs.
Annette draws on a range of methods when helpful, including cognitive behavioral ideas, mindfulness, emotionally-focused approaches, and EMDR for trauma-related material. She uses what fits the person rather than one fixed method. The goal is steady progress you can notice between sessions.
Typical concerns she supports include depression, bipolar mood challenges, grief, relationship and communication problems, caregiver stress, parenting strain, addiction-related struggles, eating and body-image issues, anger, grief, and feelings of isolation or low self-esteem. She also helps people navigating midlife questions, life purpose, and aging-related stress.
Her style is collaborative and straightforward. Annette helps people identify practical next steps, practice new skills, and track what changes. To begin, prospective clients complete a short questionnaire and schedule according to availability so sessions can start in a timely way.
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the client's lead so the therapist mirrors concerns and helps people find their own answers; this approach supports building trust and clearer goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, mixes practical exercises and thought-work to reduce anxiety, manage mood symptoms, and change unhelpful patterns. Emotionally-Focused Therapy, or EFT, helps people name and shift core emotions that drive relationship and attachment struggles, which can reduce reactivity and improve communication.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Annette works collaboratively to identify which methods fit a person's needs, goals, and preferences. She typically starts with listening to current concerns, then suggests approaches and checks in often to see what is helping.
The practical benefits of online therapy often include fitting sessions into busy schedules, removing travel time, and allowing shorter check-ins when needed. Because this profile does not list specific session formats, confirm current session options before booking so you know what is offered. Many people appreciate that online work makes it easier to maintain consistent appointments and to apply skills in daily life soon after a session.
