About Lucretia
Lucretia Reed is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who helps people navigate stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, parenting challenges, grief, and issues related to trauma and abuse. She also offers support around self-esteem, anger, ADHD, and concerns tied to identity and LGBT topics.
Her approach is warm and direct, aiming to build trust quickly so clients can begin practical work right away. With 18 years in counseling, she brings experience with adolescents, young adults, and adults from diverse backgrounds.
Background and approach
Her past work has included people from the foster care system, transitional housing, at-risk youth, and survivors of domestic violence. She draws on that background when clients face family crises or major life changes. Her style combines straightforward listening with gentle challenge.
She prioritizes honest feedback and accountability while keeping a non-judgmental stance. Clients can expect a focus on relationship and behavior patterns, and on finding realistic, manageable steps forward. Lucretia uses a mix of methods tailored to each person.
She incorporates person-centered ideas, cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness practices, and solution-focused tools to address symptoms and daily struggles. She also has experience using art-based activities when they fit a client’s needs. The decision to start counseling can feel heavy.
When someone is ready to begin, she offers steady support and practical direction to help them set and reach goals.
How her approaches shape online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a trusting relationship. The therapist follows the person’s lead, reflects concerns, and offers acceptance so people can talk through what matters most to them.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thinking patterns and daily routines that keep problems going. It uses practical exercises and changes in behavior to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and address unhelpful coping habits.
Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to help reduce reactivity and improve focus. These techniques can be useful for stress, anxiety, and managing impulsive responses.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped in the past. Together they decide which methods to try and make small adjustments as work progresses.
Many people find online therapy helps fit care into busy lives by reducing travel time and making scheduling easier. Online sessions can allow for shorter check-ins, regular weekly appointments, or flexible times that better match work and family demands. Because session formats are not specified here, confirm the current session options before booking to learn what is offered and how it can fit into your routine.
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.
Mindfulness Therapy
Attention training: noticing thoughts and physical feelings as they arrive without being carried off by them. Much of it is practice you do yourself, so guidance over video or audio works much as it would in person.
