Jenny Henson, LPC - Therapist in Texas

About Jenny

Jenny Henson is a licensed professional counselor who speaks plainly and listens closely. She aims to make therapy feel straightforward and practical for parents worried about stress, behavior, or emotional struggles. Her style is down-to-earth and nonjudgmental so parents can talk honestly about what’s happening at home.

She brings ten years of counseling experience and several more years working with youth in school settings. Jenny has run a independent practice and also supported students and adults in schools, so she understands how family life and school life intersect.

Background and approach

In sessions she focuses on helping people notice patterns, build useful skills, and practice new ways of responding. She commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to shift thinking and EMDR to address traumatic memories, along with client-centered listening and mindfulness tools. Motivational interviewing may be used when someone needs help finding their own reasons to change.

Jenny works with a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, grief, addictions, parenting issues, attention challenges, relationship and intimacy difficulties, and coping with life changes. She also addresses attachment and abandonment issues, communication problems, and caregiver stress. She is licensed in Texas as an LPC, credential number TX LPC 84155, and offers services in English.

If a situation is outside her scope, she says so and helps find another resource.

Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit family life

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building trust so parents and caregivers feel heard and understood; this approach helps people make changes that matter to them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, teaches practical steps to change unhelpful thinking and behavior, which can reduce anxiety, low mood, and stress related to parenting. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, EMDR, is a method used to reduce the emotional impact of distressing memories and can be helpful after trauma.

Jenny treats finding the right approach as a team effort. She will talk with each person about goals, needs, and what feels comfortable, then try techniques that match those priorities. If a method isn’t helping, she adjusts the plan together with the client.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which make it easier to fit sessions into busy family schedules. These formats offer flexibility for short check-ins, regular sessions, or paced work over time, helping parents and caregivers access support without extra travel or time off work.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

EMDR

A structured protocol used with distressing memories, pairing recall with guided attention tasks. Some therapists adapt it for video sessions; whether that fits is worth asking about directly.
