About Cathy
Cathy Henderson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with 35 years of experience. She focuses on building a respectful, compassionate space where people can begin to talk about hard things. Cathy emphasizes listening first and tailoring conversations to each person’s needs.
She works with common problems such as stress, anxiety, depression, and addictions. Cathy also addresses issues tied to relationships and personal history like abandonment, codependency, family of origin concerns, and communication problems. She helps people who struggle with guilt, shame, isolation, or the specific pressures that affect women.
Cathy mixes a client-centered stance with practical tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness practices. That means conversations start with the client’s goals and priorities, and then skills or exercises are added when they fit. Sessions focus on clear, usable steps people can try between meetings.
Her approach aims to make change manageable. Cathy breaks larger problems into smaller parts and works at a pace the person is comfortable with. She adjusts her style to match how someone prefers to think and learn.
To begin, a short questionnaire and scheduling step help match needs and timing. Cathy supports people through the early steps of starting therapy and helps set realistic goals for progress.
How these approaches translate to online therapy
Client-centered therapy is about following the persons lead and creating an accepting space. Online sessions let Cathy listen and reflect, then adapt conversations around what feels most important to the client. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying new behaviors. In an online format, Cathy can coach practical exercises, assign brief homework, and review what worked between meetings. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and grounding practices to reduce reactivity and stress; these are easy to practice during and between online sessions.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Cathy will talk with the person about their goals, preferences, and what has helped or not helped in the past. Together they decide which ideas to try and adjust the plan as progress continues.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, cut out travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people practice skills in the context of daily life and bring those experiences back to sessions for discussion.
