About Lenore
Lenore Strickland, LPC, welcomes people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, parenting pressures, trauma, or anger. She speaks plainly and creates a calm space where clients can talk about hard things without judgment. She encourages people who are nervous about starting therapy and recognizes that taking the first step takes courage.
Lenore has worked in Texas for 10 years as a licensed professional counselor. She draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people manage strong emotions and improve daily functioning.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on practical steps and clearer communication rather than long lectures or medical jargon. Many clients bring concerns tied to relationships and family life, including attachment issues, blended family stress, adoption and foster care challenges, and general family conflict. Lenore also helps people work through feelings like shame, guilt, emptiness, loneliness, jealousy, or reactions to infidelity and abandonment.
She has experience addressing more specific concerns such as dissociation, disruptive mood dysregulation disorder (DMDD), and the effects of trauma and abuse. In conversations she helps people notice patterns, name difficult feelings, and try manageable changes at home. Lenore’s approach is collaborative.
She partners with each person to set goals and find strategies that fit their routine and values. Her practice serves people in Texas and she accepts international clients who prefer to work in English.
Therapeutic techniques and how they fit into online work
Lenore uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people manage emotions and improve day-to-day functioning. One common approach focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and trying different, more balanced ways of responding to stress and anxiety. This helps with worry, low mood, and overwhelm by teaching concrete skills to test and change thoughts.Another approach centers on working through the effects of trauma and abuse by slowly building tolerance for difficult memories and feelings while strengthening present-day coping skills. That work often includes grounding strategies and steps to reduce intense reactions so daily life becomes easier to handle.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Lenore collaborates with each person to pick methods that match their goals, preferences, and what they can manage between sessions. She adjusts pacing and techniques based on feedback and progress so therapy stays practical and relevant.
If you prefer online care, confirm the session formats available before booking since formats were not specified in the biography. Online options can make it easier to fit sessions into busy lives, shorten travel time, allow a quieter check-in during work breaks, or avoid being on camera when that feels uncomfortable. Many people find that remote sessions still let them learn skills, practice communication, and make steady progress with a licensed professional.
